<span>2a(5-b)=3b+7
<em>[open bracket]</em>
10a - 2ab = 3b + 7
<em>[solve for b, so we need to move all terms with b to the left]</em>
<em>[-3b on both sides]</em>
10a - 2ab - 3b = 3b + 7 - 3b
10a - 2ab - 3b = 7
<em>[move all those without b to the right]</em>
<em>[-10a on both side]</em>
10a - 2ab- 3b - 10a = 7 - 10a
-2ab - 3b = 7 - 10a
<em>[divide by -1 through to change b to be positive]</em>
2ab + 3b = 10a - 7

Answer:
x=4 Inch
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the Square = 24 Inches
If a Square of Length x cm is cut out from each corner
Length of the Box = 24-x-x=(24-2x) Inches
Width of the Box =24-x-x=(24-2x) Inches
Height of the box = x inches
Volume of a Cuboid = Length X Width X Height
V(x)= x(24-2x)(24-2x)
Simplifying
V(x)=4x(12-x)(12-x)
To determine the value of x at which V is largest, we take the derivative of V(x) and solve for the critical points.
V(x)=4x(12-x)(12-x)

Set the derivative equal to zero to obtain the critical points

x cannot be equal to 12 as it divides the length of the square cardboard into exactly two equal parts.
When x=4
V(4)=4*4(12-4)(12-4)=16*8*8=1024 Cubic Inches
When x=4 Inch, the volume, V of the open box is largest.
