HOW TO GET IT:
Simply follow PEMDAS. Solve each exponent first, then do the rest.
Answer:
13058.83 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a rectangular box is having dimensions as 41x81 inches.
Let x be the side of square cut from all the four corners.
The open box made would have height as x and length 41-2x with width 81-2x
Volume =

Equate first derivative to 0
We get applicable root as x = 8.642
Max volume = 13058.83 cubic inches
Answer:
- x = log(y/4)/log(1.0256)
- your answer for y=12 is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking you to solve ...
y = f(x)
for x. (In other words, find the inverse function.)
You already did this using a constant for y. Do the same thing with y instead of the constant.
y = 4(1.0256^x)
y/4 = 1.0256^x . . . . . . . divide by 4
log(y/4) = x·log(1.0256) . . . . . take logs
log(y/4)/log(1.0256) = x . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Now, you have a model for x in terms of y, which is what the question is asking for.
x = log(y/4)/log(1.0256) . . . . . . . exact expression
When y=12, this is ...
x = log(12/4)/log(1.0256) ≈ 43.46 . . . . weeks
_____
This is a linear equation in log(y), so can be written as such:
x = 91.0912·log(y) -54.8424 . . . . . approximate expression
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
x/3+12 = 26
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate the fraction
x+36=78
subtract 36 on both sides
x=42
42/3=14
14+12=26
