<h3>Given</h3>
a cuboid with length, width, height dimensions 5, 6, x
<h3>Find</h3>
the value of x that makes the numerical value of the total surface area equal to the numerical value of the volume
<h3>Solution</h3>
The volume is given by
... V = L·W·H = 5·6·x = 30x
The area is given by
... A = 2(L·W + H(L+W)) = 2(5·6 +x(5+6)) = 2(30 +11x) = 60 +22x
When these are equal, we have
... 30x = 60 +22x
... 8x = 60
... x = 7.5
The desired value of x is 7.5.
That would be M = 30G where M is in miles and G is in gallons.
This is the formula to solve for the vertex.
Example Question:
Find the vertex of y = -0.5x^2 + 100x
-b/2a = -100/2(-0.5) = -100/-1 = 100
The x coordinate of the vertex is 100.
Best of Luck!
P.S. this is 1000th question i've answered :)

Answer: B) 4 & 1/6
Nice work on getting the correct answer.
============================================================
Explanation:
x is opposite the marked acute angle
5 is opposite the corresponding acute angle
So x and 5 are proportional to each other. We can form the ratio x/5
Similarly, 10 and 12 are proportional to one another. We can form the ratio 10/12.
Set those ratios equal to each other and solve for x
x/5 = 10/12
12x = 5*10 ... cross multiply
12x = 50
x = 50/12 ...... divide both sides by 12
x = (25*2)/(6*2)
x = 25/6
x = (24+1)/6
x = 24/6 + 1/6
x = 4 + 1/6
x = 4 & 1/6 which shows why <u>choice B</u> is the answer.
Side note: 25/6 = 4.167 approximately
