Answer:
The answer is x = -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Total cost = f + ad
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of days = d
Fixed charges = f
Cost per day = a
Find:
Equation
Computation:
Total cost = fixed cost + (Number of days)(Cost per day)
Total cost = f + ad
Here you have two terms connected by the "subtraction" symbol.
The two coefficients are 2 and 32, and one factor common to both of these is 2. Thus, <span>2x^2-32y^2 = 2(x^2-16y^2).
You could stop here. But it'd make more sense to continue, since x^2-16y^2 is easy to factor:
The three factors of </span><span>2x^2-32y^2 are 2, x-4 and x+4</span>
Answer:
Height: 3/2 inches
Length: 12 inches
Width: 4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x is the side length of the square
The height of the box by cutting squares off :x
- The new length of the cardboard = 15 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
- The new width of the cardboard = 7 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
The new volume of it is:
V = (15 -2x) (7 -2x) x
<=> V = 
To maximum volume, we use the first derivative of the volume
<=> 
<=> 
<=> 2x -3 = 0 or 6x -35 = 0
<=> x = 3/2 or x = 35/6
To determine which value of x gives a maximum, we evaluate
= 24x -88
= 24(3/2) -88 = -52
= 24(35/6) -88 = 52
We choose x = 3/2 to have the maximum volume because the value of x that gives a negative value is maximum.
So the dimensions (in inches) of the box is:
Height: 3/2 inches
Length: 15-2(3/2) = 12 inches
Width: 7 - 2(3/2) = 4 inches
Answer: The total number of different types of labels will the manufacturers have to produce = 24.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Choices for flavours = 4
Choices for sugar = 2 {either sugar or sugar free}
Choices for the qunatity = 3
By Fundamental counting principle,
Total number of different types of labels will have to produce = (Choices for flavors) x (Choices for sugar)x (Choices for the quantity )
= 4 x 2x 3
=24
Hence, the total number of different types of labels will the manufacturers have to produce = 24.
