Answer:
If you are just looking for a simplified answer then the answer is -7x - 3.
Answer:
The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches
The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
The volume of the open-topped box is equal to

where

substitute

Convert to expanded form

using a graphing tool
Graph the cubic equation
Remember that
The domain for x is the interval -----> (0,1)
Because
If x>1
then
the width is negative (W=2-2x)
so
The maximum is the point (0.46,3.02)
see the attached figure
therefore
The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches
The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches
The last one is the only one that makes sense according to the standard position function. -16t^2 is the pull of gravity on an object in free fall, and the height is 120 feet above the ground. Hopefully that's what you need since there's no graph we can refer to
No, she is wrong. 0.00001 has 4 zeros in front of the one and behind the decimal, making it 1/100000 or 1/10^5. For 0.001, there are 2 zeros in front, making it 1/1000 or 1/10^3. Since a number gets smaller as the denominator gets larger, and 10^5>10^3, 1/10^5<1/10^3
