Answer:

smaller no.=x

larger=x+2

x+x+2-144

2x+2-144

2x=142

X=71

Smaller=71

Larger=71+2=73

Six identical squares are cut from the corners and edges of an 80 cm by 50 cm cardboard rectangle. the remaining piece is folded

Check the picture.

let the length of a side of each of the squares removed be x.

The box formed will have dimensions: 80-2x, 50-2x, x(the height)

So the volume can be expressed as a function of x as follows:

f(x)=(80-2x)(50-2x)x=[4000-160x-100x+4 x^{2} ]x=(4 x^{2}-260x+4000)x

so f(x)=4 x^{3}-260x^{2}+4000x

the solutions of f'(x)=0 gives the inflection points, so the candidates for maxima points,

f'(x)=12x^{2}-520 x +4000=0

solving the quadratic equation, either by a calculator, graphing software, or by other algebraic methods as the discriminant formula, we find the solutions

x=10 and x=33.333

plug in f(x) these values to see which greater:

f(10)=(80-20)(50-20)10=60*30*10=18000 cm cubed

f(33.333)=(80-66.666)(50-66.666)33.333= which is negative because (50-66.666)<0



Answer: 18000 cm cubed

1. f(x) = x2 - 21<br> f(5)
matrenka [14]

Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

if you will substitute the value of f(x) with 5, you will get the following equation:

5=2x-21

2x=26/÷2

x=13

(I didn't know what you ment when you wrote x2, is it x square or 2X)

I really hope it was the second one, cause that's how I solved it.
