5 horses with a combined weight of 6,240 pounds
horse trailer has a limit of 8,000 pounds of horse and tacks.
Find the weight of tack, t, for each horse that Cari can allow.
5t + 6,240 < 8,000
5t + 6,240 < 8,000
- 6,240 -6,240
5t < 1,760
<span>÷5 ÷5 </span>
t < 352
Each horse can carry a tack that weighs no more than 352 pounds.
Any tack that weighs beyond <span>352 </span>pounds is will exceed the maximum carrying capacity of the horse trailer.
Let's try to divide the sentence into multiple parts and then combine it one by one to make it easier to understand.
1. True
2 times y and 6 -------->(2y+6)
the square of the sum of "2 times y and 6" -------->(2y+6)^2
8 times "the square of the sum of 2 times y and 6"------> 8(2y+6)^2
2. True
the difference of x and 7 -------->(x-7)
9 and x -------->(9 + x)
2 times the product of the sum of
"9 and x" and "the difference of x and 7"-------> 2(9 + x) (x-7)
3. True
difference of 5 times x and 3 -------->(5x-3)
the square of the difference of 5 times x and 3------->(5x-3)^2
4. False
The description should be: the product of 7 and the square of x
the product of 7 and x -------->(7x)
the square of the product of 7 and x -------->(7x)^2
5. True
This one should be clear as it was one sentences
the sum of y squared(y^2) and three times y(3y) minus 4-------->y^2+ 3y -4
6. False
The description should be: the product of 5 and 8 times the square of x plus the sum of 20x and 8
the sum of 20x and 8 -------->20x+8
8 plus the square of x plus the sum of 20x and 8-------->8+ x^2 +20x+8
the product of 5 and.... ------->(5)(........
the product of 5 and
8 plus the square of x plus the sum of 20x and 8---->(5)(8+ x^2 +20x+8)
The equation in standard form is 2x^2 + 7x - 15=0. Factoring it gives you (2x-3)(x+5)= 0. That's the first one. The second one requires you to now your formula for the axis of symmetry which is x = -b/2a with a and b coming from your quadratic. Your a is -1 and your b is -2, so your axis of symmetry is
x= -(-2)/2(-1) which is x = 2/-2 which is x = -1. That -1 is the x coordinate of the vertex. You could plug that back into the equation and solve it for y, which is the easier way, or you could complete the square on the quadratic...let's plug in x to find y. -(-1)^2 - 2(-1)-1 = 0. So the vertex is (-1, 0). That's the first choice given. For the last one, since it is a negative quadratic it will be a mountain instead of a cup, meaning it doesn't open upwards, it opens downwards. Those quadratics will ALWAYS have a max value as opposed to a min value which occurs with an upwards opening parabola. This one is also the first choice because of the way the equation is written. There is no side to side movement (the lack of parenthesis tells us that) so the x coordinate for the vertex is 0. The -1 tells us that it has moved down from the origin 1 unit; hence the y coordinate is -1. The vertex is a max at (0, -1)
Answer:
13.125 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of box is 3/2 X 7/2 X 5/2 = 105/8 = 13 1/8 = 13.125 cubic inches
