Consider the two expressions 4b(b+1) and (2b+7)(2b-8). Compare their values if b=-3, b=-2, and if b=10. Is it true that for an v

frutty [35]

Answer:

FIRST EXPRESSION:

- If $b=-3$ , the value of $4b(b+1)$ is $24$

- If $b=-2$ , the value of $4b(b+1)$ is $8$

- If $b=10$ , the value of $4b(b+1)$ is $440$

SECOND EXPRESSION:

- If $b=-3$ , the value of $(2b+7)(2b-8))$ is $-14$

- If $b=-2$ , the value of $(2b+7)(2b-8))$ is $-36$

- If $b=10$ , the value of $(2b+7)(2b-8))$ is $324$

Yes, for any value of "b" the value of the first expression is greater than the value of the second expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values of "b" into each expression and evaluate.

- For the first expression $4b(b+1)$ , you get:

If $b=-3$ → $4(-3)(-3+1)=24$

If $b=-2$ → $4(-2)(-2+1)=8$

If $b=10$ → $4(10)(10+1)=440$

- For the second expression $(2b+7)(2b-8))$ , you get:

If $b=-3$ → $(2(-3)+7)(2(-3)-8)=-14$

If $b=-2$ → $(2(-2)+7)(2(-2)-8)=-36$

If $b=10$ → $(2(10)+7)(2(10)-8)=324$

You can observe that for any value of "b" the value of the first expression is greater than the value of the second expression.

Bond [772]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Always start with the parenthesis. (26/13) = 2

2. Then multiply. 2*-7 = -14

3. After, you add 14 to your precious answer (-14) then subtract 4.

-14 + 14 = 0 - 4 = -4

A rectangular storage container with a lid is to have a volume of 2 m3. The length of its base is twice the width. Material for

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Dimensions are 2 m by 1 meter by 1 meter,

Minimum cost is $ 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width ( in meters ) of the container,

Since, the length is twice of the width,

So, length of the container = 2w,

Now, if h be the height of the container,

Volume = length × width × height

2 = 2w × w × h

1 = w² × h

$\implies h=\frac{1}{w^2}$

Since, the area of the base = l × w = 2w × w = 2w²,

Area of the lid = l × w = 2w²,

While the area of the sides = 2hw + 2hl

= 2h( w + l)

$= 2\times \frac{1}{w^2}(w+2w)$

$=\frac{6w}{w^2}$

$=\frac{6}{w}$

Since, Material for the base costs $1 per m². Material for the sides and lid costs $2 per m²,

So, the total cost,

$C(w) = 1\times 2w^2+2\times 2w^2 + 2\times \frac{6}{w}$

$=2w^2+4w^2+\frac{12}{w}$

$=6w^2+\frac{12}{w}$

Differentiating with respect to w,

$C'(w) = 12w -\frac{12}{w^2}$

Again differentiating with respect to w,

$C''(w) = 12 + \frac{24}{w^3}$

For maxima or minima,

C'(w) = 0

$\implies 12w -\frac{12}{w^2}=0$

$\implies 12w^3 - 12=0$

$w^3-1=0\implies w = 1$

For w = 1, C''(w) = positive,

Hence, for width 1 m the cost is minimum,

Therefore, the minimum cost is C(1) = 6(1)²+12 = $ 18,

And, the dimension for which the cost is minimum is,

2 m by 1 meter by 1 meter.
