First, by using the distance formula for just one side, we can find the length of all sides (a square has 4 equal sides.) Then, we can apply the area of a square formula, which is a^2.
Distance formula:
√((-2 + 5)^2 + (-8 + 4)^2)
√((3)^2 + (4)^2)
√9 + 16
√25
5
The side lengths of the square are each equal to 5, and by applying the formula for area, we can find the area of the square.
5^2 = 25
<h3>The area is 25.</h3>
Answer:
2/25
Step-by-step explanation:
It will be 20/400 + 12/400
=2/25

Answer:
16,242. 7 cm^3.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to cut off a square piece at the 4 corners of the cardboard.
Let the length of their edges be x cm.
The volume of the box will be:
V = height * width * length
V = x(100-2x)(40-2x)
V = x(4000 - 200x - 80x + 4x^2)
V = x(4x^2 - 280x + 4000)
V = 4x^3 + - 280x^2 + 4000x
Finding the derivative:
dV / dx = 12x^2 - 560x + 4000 = 0 ( when V is a maxm or minm.)
4(3x^2 - 140x + 1000) = 0
x = 37.86, 8.80.
Looks like x = 8.80 is the right value but we can check this out be looking at the sign of the second derivative:
V" = 24x - 560, when x = 8.8 V" is negative so this is a Maximum for V.
So the maximum volume of the box is when x = 8.8 so we have
V = 8.8(100-2(8.8)(40 - 2(8.8)
= 16,242. 7 cm^3.
There is no background information on this
