Answer:

The values of x for which the model is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function for the volume of the shipping box is given as follows;

V = 2·x³ - 19·x² + 39·x

The function will make sense when V ≥ 0, which is given as follows

When V = 0, x = 0

Which gives;

0 = 2·x³ - 19·x² + 39·x

0 = 2·x² - 19·x + 39

0 = x² - 9.5·x + 19.5

From an hint obtained by plotting the function, we have;

0 = (x - 3)·(x - 6.5)

We check for the local maximum as follows;

dV/dx = d(2·x³ - 19·x² + 39·x)/dx = 0

6·x² - 38·x + 39 = 0

x² - 19/3·x + 6.5 = 0

x = (19/3 ±√((19/3)² - 4 × 1 × 6.5))/2

∴ x = 1.288, or 5.045

At x = 1.288, we have;

V = 2·1.288³ - 19·1.288² + 39·1.288 ≈ 22.99

V ≈ 22.99 in.³

When x = 5.045, we have;

V = 2·5.045³ - 19·5.045² + 39·5.045≈ -30.023

Therefore;

V > 0 for 0 < x < 3 and V < 0 for 3 < x < 6.5

The values of x for which the model makes sense and V ≥ 0 is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

the second line has to be parallel (but not identical), so that the 2 lines do not cross each other, do not have any point in common.

that means it must have the same slope but a different y-intercept.

the line in the graph goes through the origin (0, 0), which makes the y-intercept = 0 (the y value when x = 0).

and we see that the points with integer coordinates seem to be e.g. (3, -2).

so, for the slope (y difference / x difference between 2 points) we use this point and the origin.

x changes by +3 (from 0 to 3).

y changes by -2 (from 0 to -2).

so, the slope is -2/3. and it is always the factor of x.

let's look at the answer options :

2x + 3y = 0

3y = -2x

y = (-2/3)x

this is the identical line, so it is wrong !

2x + 3y = 6

3y = -2x + 6

y = (-2/3)x + 2

the same slope and different y-intercept.

this is the correct solution !

2x - 3y = 9

-3y = -2x + 9

y = (2/3)x - 3

wrong slope. so it is wrong !

y = 3x + 2

wrong slope. so it is wrong !

Based on corresponding angles and vertical angles, which angles must always be congruent to the angles glven?​
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

When two lines intersect they form two pairs of opposite angles, A + C and B + D. Another word for opposite angles are vertical angles. Vertical angles are always congruent, which means that they are equal. Adjacent angles are angles that come out of the same vertex

If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x2 - 6x – 7 = 0, which number would have to be adde
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

(-3)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

You add 7 on both sides, giving you x^2 - 6x = 7

Then, take half of b, and square it. Giving you x^2 - 6x +(-3)^2 = 7

The answer will be (-3)^2 for this question, but this is not the full solution.

Hope this helped. Good luck on the rest!

What are the partial products for 3.2 x 0.6?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

This is a complete lesson with instruction & exercises for 5th grade about multiplying decimals by decimals. The interpretation for multiplying a decimal by a decimal is to think of it as taking a fractional part of a decimal number (the symbol × translates to "of"). The lesson compares multiplication by a decimal to scaling & shrinking a stick. Lastly, it shows the common shortcut to decimal multiplication (multiply as if there were no decimal points; the answer has as many decimals as the factors have in total.)

In the video below, I explain the rule for multiplying decimals (put as many decimal digits in the answer as there are in the factors.) I explain where this rule comes from, using fraction multiplication. The lesson continues below the video.
