The questions for this problem would be:
1. What is the dimensions of the box that has the maximum volume?
2. What is the maximum volume of the box?
Volume of a rectangular box = length x width x height
From the problem statement,
length = 12 - 2x
width = 9 - 2x
height = x
where x is the height of the box or the side of the equal squares from each corner and turning up the sides
V = (12-2x) (9-2x) (x)
V = (12 - 2x) (9x - 2x^2)
V = 108x - 24x^2 -18x^2 + 4x^3
V = 4x^3 - 42x^2 + 108x
To maximize the volume, we differentiate the expression of the volume and equate it to zero.
V = 4x^3 - 42x^2 + 108x
dV/dx = 12x^2 - 84x + 108
12x^2 - 84x + 108 = 0x^2 - 7x + 9 = 0
Solving for x,
x1 = 5.30 ; Volume = -11.872 (cannot be negative)
x2 = 1.70 ; Volume = 81.872
So, the answers are as follows:
1. What is the dimensions of the box that has the maximum volume?
length = 12 - 2x = 8.60
width = 9 - 2x = 5.60
height = x = 1.70
2. What is the maximum volume of the box?
Volume = 81.872
Answer:
NS= 20
Step-by-step explanation:
4x / 3x-5 (2/1)
4x / 6x-10
-6x -6x
-2x / -10
X / 5
X=5
NS= 4x
NS= 4(5)
NS= 20

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-98 = 7t
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>t</u></em>
- Divide 7 on both sides: -14 = t
- Rewrite: t = -14
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in t into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>t</em>: -98 = 7(-14)
- Multiply: -98 = -98
Here we see that -98 is equal to -98.
∴ t = -14 is the solution to the equation.
