8 0

Answer:

83%

Step-by-step explanation:

14500 .......... 100%

12035 ................x%

x = 12035*100/14500 = 12035/145 = 83%

Consider the function V=g(x), where g(x) =x(6-2x)(8-2x), with x being the length of a cutout in cm and V being the volume of an

Answer:

The maximum volume of the open box is 24.26 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is given as $V=g(x)$ , where $g(x)=x(6-2x)(8-2x)$ and $0\le x\le3$ .

Expand the function to obtain:

$g(x)=4x^3-28x^2+48x$

Differentiate wrt x to obtain:

$g'(x)=12x^2-56x+48$

To find the point where the maximum value occurs, we solve

$g'(x)=0$

$\implies 12x^2-56x+48=0$

$\implies x=1.13,x=3.54$

Discard x=3.54 because it is not within the given domain.

Apply the second derivative test to confirm the maximum critical point.

$g''(x)=24x-56$ , $g''(1.13)=24(1.13)-56=-28.88\:$

This means the maximum volume occurs at $x=1.13$ .

Substitute $x=1.13$ into $g(x)=x(6-2x)(8-2x)$ to get the maximum volume.

$g(1.13)=1.13(6-2\times1.13)(8-2\times1.13)=24.26$

The maximum volume of the open box is 24.26 cm³

Well Okay, 1.70 x 6 + .90x, Your pretty much taking 1.70 multiply by 6 then adding .90 for every page after.

Solving linear equation mean calculating the unknown variable from the equation.

Let the linear equation : y = mx + c

If we draw the above equation on Cartesian Coordinates , it will be a straight line with :

<em>m → gradient of the line</em>

<em>( 0 , c ) → y - intercept</em>

Gradient of the line could also be calculated from two arbitrary points on line ( x₁ , y₁ ) and ( x₂ , y₂ ) with the formula :

$\large {\boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}$

If point ( x₁ , y₁ ) is on the line with gradient m , the equation of the line will be :

$\large {\boxed{y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1 )}}$

<em>Let us tackle the problem!</em>

$\texttt{ }$

This problem is about Directly Proportional.

<em>There were 8 engineers under every team leader.</em>

$\texttt{1 Team Leader} \rightarrow \texttt{8 engineers}$

$\texttt{15 Team Leader} \rightarrow 15 \times \texttt{8 engineers} = \boxed{\texttt{120 engineers}}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>There were 5 project managers for every 50 engineers.</em>

$\texttt{50 engineers} \rightarrow \texttt{5 project managers}$

$\texttt{120 engineers} \rightarrow (120 \div 50) \times \texttt{5 project managers} = \boxed{\texttt{12 project managers}}$
