Answer:

The unit price of brant A and brand B is 0.1311 and 0.1704 and brand A would be better

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the unit price for each brand is shown below:

For brand A, the unit price is

= 2.36 ÷ 18 pencils

= 0.1311

For Brand b, the unit price is

= 4.09 ÷ 24

= 0.1704

So here as we can see that brand A would be better as it has less cost as compared with brand B

The length of a rectangle is twice it’s with the perimeter of a rectangle is 126 feet.
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Length = 42 feet

Width = 21 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and width be represented by L and W

L = 2W

Perimeter (P) = 126 feet

2(L + W) = 126

L + W = 126/2 = 63

2W + W = 63

3W = 63

W = 63/3 = 21 feet

L = 2W = 2 × 21 feet = 42 feet

An architect is designing a house for the Frazier family. The Fraziers have asked that the cost of
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

║x - 175,000║≤ 20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount the Fraziers are willing to pay. Since the house costs $175,000 and they are willing to deviate from this price no more than $20,000, so x =  $175,000 ± $20,000.

So, x - 175,000 = ± 20000

║x - 175,000║= 20,000

But we require  

║x - 175,000║≤ 20,000

which is our required open sentence.

\huge{ \mathfrak{ \underline{question  : }}}

Select the two binomials that are factors of this trinomial.

x_2 + 8x + 12

\huge{ \mathfrak{  \underline{Answer   : }}}

  • {x}^{2}  + 8x + 12

  • {x }^{2}  + 6x + 2x + 12

  • x (x + 6) + 2(x + 6)

  • (x  + 2)(x + 6)

We got the factors as :

A. \: (x + 6)

and

D. \:  (x + 2)

Pepsi [2]
Let x represent the side length of the square end, and let d represent the dimension that is the sum of length and girth. Then the volume V is given by
  V = x²(d -4x)
Volume will be maximized when the derivative of V is zero.
  dV/dx = 0 = -12x² +2dx
  0 = -2x(6x -d)
This has solutions
  x = 0, x = d/6

a) The largest possible volume is
  (d/6)²(d -4d/6) = 2(d/6)³
  = 2(108 in/6)³ = 11,664 in³

b) The dimensions of the package with largest volume are
  d/6 = 18 inches square by
  d -4d/6 = d/3 = 36 inches long
