A manufacturer wants to make open tin boxes from pieces of tin with dimensions 8 in. by 15 in. by cutting equal squares from the
Stells [14]

Answer:

\frac{5}{3} in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the side of square.

Length of box=8-2x

Width of box=15-2x

Height of box=x

Volume of box=L\times B\times H

Substitute the values then we get

Volume of box=V(x)=(8-2x)(15-2x)x=(15x-2x^2)(8-2x)

V(x)=120x-30x^2-16x^2+4x^3

V(x)=4x^3-46x^2+120x

Differentiate w.r.t x

V'(x)=12x^2-92x+120

V'(x)=0

12x^2-92x+120=0

3x^2-23x+30=0

3x^2-18x-5x+30=0

3x(x-6)-5(x-6)=0

(x-6)(3x-5)=0

x-6=0\implies x=6

3x-5=0\implies x=\frac{5}{3}

Again differentiate w.r.t x

V''(x)=24x-92

Substitute x=6

V''(6)=24(6)-92=52>0

Substitute x=5/3

V''(5/3)=24(5/3)-92=-52

Hence, the volume is maximum at x=\frac{5}{3}

Therefore, the side of the square ,x=\frac{5}{3} in cutout that gives the box the largest possible volume.

Write the equation of the line that has a y-value that increases by 4 for every x that increases by 1. It also crosses the y-axi
34kurt
Slope = rise/run.      the rise is the increase of y and the run is the increase of x. that would make it 4/1 or just 4. now that you have the slope, plug everything into slope-intercept form. y = mx + b. m = the slope. b = the y-intercept. once every thing is plugged in, then the equation would be y = 4x - 2.

Brut [27]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps we need to take:

1. Simplify left side.

2. Separate the variable and its coefficient from constants

3. Divide both sides by the coefficient to find "x

1) Simplify left side.

5(3x - 4) + 12 = 52

15x - 20 + 12 = 52

15x - 8 = 52

2) Separate the variable and its coefficient from constants by adding 8 to both sides.

15x - 8 + 8 = 52 + 8

15x = 60

3) Divide both sides by the coefficient to find x. (the coefficient is the number that comes before the variable)

15x / 15 = 60 / 15

x = 4
