I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2
x = -8, 3/2</span>
Answer:
-2,-3
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>The area of the base is x^2> The height is h. Each side of the box has area xh. There are 4 sides of the box so the total surface area of the box is x^2+4xh and that is equal to 1000. Solve that equation for h:
x^2+4xh = 1000 h = (1000-x^2)/4x so the Volume = x^2[(1000-x^2)/4x]
Simplify and get V = 250x-x^3/4
The volume will be a maximum when its first derivative is 0.
V' = 250-3/4x^2
Set to 0 and solve. x=18.26
Now plug into the volume function to find the maximum volume:
V=250(18.26)-(18.26)^3/4
V= 4564.35 - 1522.10 =3042.25</span>
To get the x-intercept you put y=0
0=2x-8
2x=8 , x=4
the point is (4,0)
