Answer:
Option D is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The x intercepts of the parabola are the solutions of the equation. These points can be determined either by graphical method or by solving the quadratic equation with any of the methods of solving a quadratic equation.
In order to use the graphical method, values of x are picked and substituted into the equation to get corresponding values of y. The y values are plotted against the x axis and the parabola (downward) is drawn. The points where it cuts the horizontal axis become the solutions of the equation
y = x^2 - 9x + 18
Solving the equation by using the factorization method,
x^2 - 9x + 18 = 0
x^2 - 6x - 3x + 18 = 0
x(x-6)-3(x-6)
(x-6)(x-3) = 0
x -6 = 0 or x -3 = 0
x = 6 or x = 3
The x-intercepts are (3, 0) and (6, 0)
Answer:
The maximum volume of the open box is 24.26 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the box is given as
, where
and
.
Expand the function to obtain:

Differentiate wrt x to obtain:

To find the point where the maximum value occurs, we solve



Discard x=3.54 because it is not within the given domain.
Apply the second derivative test to confirm the maximum critical point.
, 
This means the maximum volume occurs at
.
Substitute
into
to get the maximum volume.

The maximum volume of the open box is 24.26 cm³

Answer:
4+2<-14
6< -14 (False)
– 5+98< 41
93<41 (False)
Both statements are false.
15% of 40 = 6 so I’m guessing it would be 6
