Given:
Renting a small moving truck for a day costs $29.95 plus $0.79 per mile that the truck is driven. Ms. Knowles rented a truck for one day and paid $91.57.
The equation is
To find:
Whether the statement are true or false.
Solution:
We have,
Here,
Fixed cost = 29.95
Variable cost = 0.79d, it depends on the number of miles Ms. Knowles drove.
So, the variable d represents the number of miles Ms. Knowles drove. Hence, statement A is true.
The term 0.79d represents the charge in dollars for the distance driven. Hence, statement B is true.
You can isolate the term 0.79d by subtracting 29.95 from both sides of the equation.
Hence, statement C is false.
Answer:
x ≈ 1.8 cm gives the greatest volume
Step-by-step explanation:
After cutting x cm from each corner in each direction, the cardboard can be folded up to make a box that is x cm deep and (12 -2x) by (10 -2x) in length and width. Clearly, values of x are limited to 5 or less, since cutting 5 cm from each side would leave a width of zero. Then the volume is given by ...
V = x(12 -2x)(10 -2x)
The plot below shows the value of this cubic equation for volume, and identifies the peak as (x, V) ≈ (1.8, 96.8). That is, a cut of 1.8 cm will result in a box of approximate volume 96.8 cm³.
