Solve each problem. Volume of a Box A piece of sheet metal is 2.5 times as long as it is wide. It is to be made into a box with an open top by cutting 3 -inch squares from each corner and folding up the sides, as shown at the top of the next page. Let x
represent the width of the original piece of sheet metal. (a) Represent the length of the original piece of sheet metal in terms of x.
(b) What are the restrictions on x?
(c) Determine a function V
that represents the volume of the box in terms of x
(d) For what values of x
(that is, original widths) will the volume of the box be between 600 and 800 cubic inches? Determine the answer graphically, and give values to the nearest tenth of an inch
Hello there, you can proceed with the multiplication of these factors using the FOIL method (which stands for first, outer, inner and last) multiply I assume that by descending order, you mean by decreasing power. If it were so, the answer is 6(x^3)12(x^2)-16(x^2)32x-27x+72.
8.4 because 6 would round up to 10 and 10+30 =40 for 8.40 or just 8.4
Step 2 9y - 24 = 10 + 3y because 3 times 3y its not 6y nor is 3 times 8 equal to 5
