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
In your case,
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)
30÷5 (the 5 parts from 2:3) is 6 so the first group gets 12 (2x6) and the second gets 18 (3x6)
Difference means subtract, so we use subtraction:
*first we need to make the fractions have the same denominator
1/4 = 3/12
2/3 = 8/12
126(3/12) - 78(8/12)
*since the fraction in the first term is smaller than the second, make it improper
125(15/12) - 78(8/12)
now simply subtract:
125 - 78
= 47
15 - 8
= 7
* this is now (7/12)
now put them back together:
47(7/12)
That's the final answer!
If x=width, then the equation would be:
x(x+10)=20,000
The length is 10 meters longer than the width(x), so the length is x+10.
To get the area(20,000) you multiply width by length, hence x(x+10).
Hope this helps.
