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
Answer:
r = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=m
(r,7)=(x1,y1) and (3,4)=(x2-y2) and m=-3/5
so plug in...
(4-7)/(4-r)=-3/5
then solve for r which will get that r = -1
numerator: 4-7=-3
denominator: 4-r=5 -> 4-5=0+r -> -1=r
Multiply 9 by 2a and 2, and you get 18a + 18. Another equivalent expression would be 18(a+1), which you can get by factoring the above answer.
Answer:
The second one
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up equal ratios
t/6=0.75/4.5 multiply both sides by 6
t=4.5/4.5
t=1 hour
So it will take Madison one hour to ride another six miles.
