The answer is 48 because 8 times 9
Answer:
Carlos is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a line through the origin has a slope of
. Carlos thinks the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin will be 3.
We know that the slope of a perpendicular line to a given line is always negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.
The slope of the perpendicular line at the origin will be negative reciprocal of
.
Let us find negative reciprocal of
as:

Since the slope of a perpendicular line at the origin is
, therefore, Carlos is incorrect.

Answer:
x= 3 inch should be turned up on each side
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of trough be x.
Width of trough be 12 - 2x.
and length of trough = 120 inch
Volume of trough, V = L×W×H = 120 × (12-2x) × x = 120x(12 - 2x)
For maximum volume, we find V' = 0
i.e 1440 -480x = 0
or x =
or x= 3
Hence x= 3 inch should be turned up on each side
