No, line graphs are used only to show change over time
16. would be C since they both consist of the same variable to the same power
17. x-2x+7-9+4x
c. 3x-2
18. -4(3a-5). You would multiply -4 by 3 a, and -4 by -5. It turns to
-4(3a)-4(-5)
a. -12a+20
Answer:
2.29 ft of side length and 1.14 height
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Volume V = x2h, where x is side of square base and h is hite.
Then surface area S = x2 + 4xh because box is open.
b) From V = x2h = 6 we have h = 6/x2.
Substitude in formula for surface area: S = x2 + 4x·6/x2, S = x2 + 24/x.
We get S as function of one variable x. To get minimum we have to find derivative S' = 2x - 24/x2 = 0, from here 2x3 - 24 = 0, x3 = 12, x = (12)1/3 ≅ 2.29 ft.
Then h = 6/(12)2/3 = (12)1/3/2 ≅ 1.14 ft.
To prove that we have minimum let get second derivative: S'' = 2 + 48/x3, S''(121/3) = 2 + 48/12 = 6 > 0.
And because by second derivative test we have minimum: Smin = (12)2/3 + 4(12)1/3(12)1/3/2 = 3(12)2/3 ≅ 15.72 ft2
S/4-6.8=-9.8
S/4= -9.8+6.8
S/4= -3
S=-3*4
S= -12
