I need the function for the volume of the box for number 1

Mathematics
1 answer:
rjkz [21]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectanguiar shape like this one is V = L * W * H, where the letters represent Length, Width and Height.  Here L is the longest dimension and is 28 - 2x; W is the width and is 22-2x; and finally, x is the height.  Thus, the volume of this box must be

V(x) = (28 - 2x)*(22 - 2x)*x

and we want to maximize V(x).  

One way of doing that is to graph V(x) and look for any local maximum of the graph.  We'd want to determine the value of x for which V(x) is a maximum.

Another way, for those who know some calculus, is to use the first and second derivatives to identify the value of  x at which V is at a maximum.

I have provided the function that you requested.  If you'd like for us to go all the way to a solution, please repost your question.

Jamal has two investments, one in Company A, and another in Company B. Jamal purchased 300 shares in Company A at $1.45 per shar
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A:

Buy 300 shares at $1.45 per share.

Sell 300 shares at $1.65 per share.

Profit: ($1.65 - $1.45) * 300 = $60

Company B:

Buy 200 shares at $1.20 per share.

Sell 200 shares at $1.10 per share.

Loss: ($1.20 - $1.10) * 200 = $20

Net profit:

$40 - $20 = $20

3 Write a numerical expression to model the words. Subtract 1 from the product of 4 and 5.​
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Hello!

After reading the question you have provided I have come up with the correct numerical expression:

4x5-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To come up with this solution you need to keep in mind some of the terminoloy being used.

The word "subtract" comes from the action of subtraction

The word "product" comes from the action of multiplication

Thus, using those terminologies correctly, you can then deduce that when the question says "the product of 4 and 5" means "multiplying 4 and 5 together".

So you get the first part being 4x5

Then, you add in the last part of "subract 1" from the "product of 4 and 5":

4x5-1

<em>Remember to keep in mind the rule of "PEMDAS"</em>

You always need to keep the multiplication portion of the equation in front of any subtraction, or addition in any given equation.

A function f is defined by f(x) = 2x - 3. By writing the full working, write the values of (a) f(0) (b) f(-2) (c) f(3) (d) f(-1)
AlladinOne [14]
A) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(0) = 2(0) - 3
f(0) = 0 - 3
f(0) = -3

b) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(-2) = 2(-2) - 3
f(-2) = -4 - 3
f(-2) = -7

c) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(3) = 2(3) - 3
f(3) = 6 - 3
f(3) = 3

d) f(x) = 2x - 3
f(-1) = 2(-1) - 3
f(-1) = -2 - 3
f(-1) = -5
