Add 3x is the right answer
x=2
sorry for the bad handwriting btw.
Answer:
The correct solution is "4.6".
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Interest rate,
r = 6.2%
or,
= 0.062
Amount,
A = 100000
Principle,
P = 76000
As we know,
⇒ 
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
On taking log both sides, we get
⇒ 
⇒ 
By putting the values of log, we get
⇒ 
or,
⇒ 
Answer: You should cut out squares that are 4 inches by 4 inches.
One of the ways to do this problem is write and graph an equation. We can write an equation for the volume of this shape and then use a graphing calculator to graph it. If we look where the graph crosses 440, we will have our solution.
The volume needs to be 440. If we let x equal the side of the square that is cut out, we have the following dimensions.
Length = 19 - 2x
Width = 18 - 2x
Height = x
Volume = LWH
So our equation could be: y = (19 - 2x)(18 - 2x)x
If you graph that equation, it will intersect at the point (4, 440). Therefore, our square could be 4 by 4 inches.
