Consider rectangular box with

  • length x units (x≥0);
  • width 3 units;
  • height (8-x) units (8-x≥0, then x≤8).

The volume of the rectangular box can be calculated as

V_{box}=\text{length}\cdot \text{width}\cdot \text{height}.

In your case,  

V_{box}=3\cdot x\cdot (8-x).

Note that maximal possible value of the height can be 8 units (when x=0 - minimal possible length) and the minimal possible height can be 0 units (when x=8 - maximal possible length).

From the attached graph you can see that the greatest x-intercept is x=8, then the height will be minimal and lenght will be maximal.

Then the volume will be V=0 (minimal).

Answer: correct choices are B (the maximum possible length), C (the minimum possible height)

Provide an Example of how to draw transformed figures that are translated, reflected, and rotated.
solniwko [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Translations: When a figure is slid to another place on the coordinate grid (for example if i asked you to move the figure 2 units down and 4 units to the left)

Reflected: When a figure is reflected across the y-axis or the x-axis and both figures are congruent to each other.

Rotated: When a figure is rotated (for example if i asked you to rotate the figure 90 degrees)

What is the midpoint of the verticle line segment graphed below?​
brilliants [131]

Answer:

C (2, -5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint of two points

mid = (x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2

       = (2+2)/2, (4+-9)/2

       = 4/2, -5/2

       =2,-5/2
