If you mean the equation 1/5 (5x +12) =18 then your answer would be x=15.6 or in the exact form of 78/5

Explanation : Start off with distributive property 1/5•5x and 1/5 •12, your equation should end up with 1x +2.4 =18 continue by using the 2.4 and doing the opposite, you will have 1x+2.4-2.4=18-2.4, after calculation you will have 1x=15.6 ,you can finish there or you can divide the 15.6 by one witch is still 15.6 , therefore getting your answer that is x=15.6

An open box with a square base is to have a volume of 18 ft^3.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

2.29 ft of side length and 1.14 height

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Volume V = x2h, where x is side of square base and h is hite.

Then surface area S = x2 + 4xh because box is open.

b) From V = x2h = 6 we have h = 6/x2.

Substitude in formula for surface area: S = x2 + 4x·6/x2, S = x2 + 24/x.

We get S as function of one variable x. To get minimum we have to find derivative S' = 2x - 24/x2 = 0, from here 2x3 - 24 = 0, x3 = 12, x = (12)1/3 ≅ 2.29 ft.

Then h = 6/(12)2/3 = (12)1/3/2 ≅ 1.14 ft.

To prove that we have minimum let get second derivative: S'' = 2 + 48/x3, S''(121/3) = 2 + 48/12 = 6 > 0.

And because by second derivative test we have minimum: Smin = (12)2/3 + 4(12)1/3(12)1/3/2 = 3(12)2/3 ≅ 15.72 ft2
