The question is basically asking you to calculate the new volume of the box that is 12x 7.5 x 2.5inches and to see if it has a larger volume than 162.5 sqin.
If you calculate the volume you should get 225 square inches.
Answer:
-25 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = -23
xy = 50, so y = 50 /x
.
x + 50/x =-23, x^2 +23x - 50 = (x-2)(x+25)
so 2 and -25
<h3>Given</h3>
P = 3r + 2s
<h3>Find</h3>
the corresponding equation for s
<h3>Solution</h3>
First of all, look at how this is evaluated in terms of what happens to a value for s.
- s is multiplied by 2
- 3r is added to that product
To solve for s, you undo these operations in reverse order. The "undo" for addition is adding the opposite. The "undo" for multiplication is division (or multiplication by the reciprocal).
... P = 3r + 2s . . . . . . starting equation
... P - 3r = 2s . . . . . . -3r is added to both sides to undo addition of 3r
... (P -3r)/2 = s . . . . . both sides are divided by 2 to undo the multiplication
Note that the division is of everything on both sides of the equation. That is why we need to add parentheses around the expression that was on the left—so the whole thing gets divided by 2.
Your solution is ...
... s = (P - 3r)/2
Answer: X = 2
Step-by-step explanation: The correct answer to this question is that x=2. Regardless of what point you go to on the line, it always has a value of 2 because it is going vertically (up and down) at 2.
