Answer:

a.V(x)=x(10-2x)(6-2x)

b.S(x)=4(15-x^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of rectangular piece of cardboard=10\times 6

According to question

Length of box,l=10-2x

Breadth of box,b=6-2x

Height of box,h=x

a.

Volume of box=l\times b\times h

Substitute the values in the formula

Volume of box=x(10-2x)(6-2x)

V(x)=x(10-2x)(6-2x)

b.Surface area of box=2(b+l)h+lb

Because the box has no lid

Substitute the values in the formula

Surface area of box=2(10-2x+6-2x)x+(10-2x)(6-2x)

Surface area of box=2(16-4x)x+60-20x-12x+4x^2

Surface area of box=32x-8x^2+60-32x+4x^2

Surface area of box=60-4x^2=4(15-x^2)

Surface area of box, S(x)=4(15-x^2)

Chris and Beth Micelli made a $235,000 offer for the purchase of a new home, which was accepted. They made a 30% down payment an
slega [8]

The amount of mortgage will be the remaining amount after they made a downpayment.

Since the downpayment is 30%, the mortgage will be 70% of the purchased amount

So mortage will be :

mortgage = 0.70 x $235,000 = $164,500

From the closing cost table :

There are charges related to the mortgage (Points, Document stamp and Processing fee)

Adding these charges will be :

=2% + 0.30% + 1.10% = 3.4% of the mortgage

So this will give us :

= 0.034 x $164,500 = $5,593

Now to find the total mortgage, add the values in the closing cost table including the mortgage itself.

Total mortgage = 164500 + 5,593 + 252 + 65 + 325 + 212 + 410 + 350 + 450

Answer :

Total mortgage = $172,157
