You do the sum(40) subtracted by 8, the answer from that divided by 2 since Erin's two times younger.
40-8=32
32÷2=16
Then if you want to check it you do the opposite and get the same sum(40) so 16×2=32 and 32+8=40

An open box is to be made out of a 12-inch by 20-inch piece of cardboard by cutting out squares of equal size from the four corn
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Length = 15.14, width = 7.14 and height = 2.43  inches.

( correct to the nearest hundredth).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lengths of the squares cut out be x inches.

Then the width of the box will be 12 - 2x and the length will be

20 - 2x inches.

The height of the box is x inches.

Volume V = x(20-2x)(12-2x)

To find the value of x when V is a maximum we find the derivative and equate it to zero.

V = x( 240 - 64x + 4x^2)

V = 4x^3 - 64x^2 + 240x

dV/dx = 12x^2 - 128x + 240 = 0

4(3x^2 - 32x + 60) = 0

This won't factor so we use the formula:

x = [-(-32) +/- √((-32)^2 - 4*3*60)] / 6

= 8.24, 2.43.

So one of these gives a maximum Volume.

The second derivative

d^2V/dx^2 = 24x - 128

When x = 8.24,  this = 69.6 (positive) so this gives a minimum.

x = 2.43 gives a negative  value ( -49.7)  so this is the maximum

So the dimensions are:-

length = 20 - 2(2.43) = 15.14

width = 12 - 2(2.43) = 7.14

height = 2.43.
