<h2>The value of x = - \dfrac{10}{3}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expressiona are:

\dfrac{2}{3x+2} and \dfrac{4}{3x-6}

To find, the value of x = ?

∴  \dfrac{2}{3x+2}=\dfrac{4}{3x-6}

By crossmultiplication, we get

4(3x + 2) = 2(3x - 6)

⇒ 12x + 8 = 6x - 12

⇒ 12x - 6x =  - 12 - 8

⇒ 6x = - 20

⇒ 3x = - 10

⇒ x = - \dfrac{10}{3}

∴ The value of x = - \dfrac{10}{3}

Thus, the value of x is equal to - \dfrac{10}{3}.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches

The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The volume of the open-topped box is equal to

V=LWH

where

L=(7-2x)\ in\\W=(2-2x)\ in\\H=x\ in

substitute

V=(7-2x)(2-2x)x

Convert to expanded form

V=(7-2x)(2-2x)x\\V=(14-14x-4x+4x^{2})x\\V=14x-14x^2-4x^2+4x^{3}\\V=4x^{3}-18x^{2} +14x

using a graphing tool

Graph the cubic equation

Remember that

The domain for x is the interval -----> (0,1)

Because

If x>1

then

the width is negative (W=2-2x)

so

The maximum is the point (0.46,3.02)

see the attached figure

therefore

The value of x that maximizes the volume enclosed by this box is 0.46 inches

The maximum volume is 3.02 cubic inches

What is the area of this figure? Please help.
Ad libitum [116K]

The area of the composite figure can be found by summing the whole area that made up the figure. Therefore, the area of the figure is 213.5m²

<h3>Area of a composite figure</h3>

The area of the composite figure is the sum of the area of the whole figure.

Therefore, the composite figure can be divided into 2 triangles and two rectangles.

Hence,

area of triangle1 = 1 / 2 × 10 × 13 = 65 m²

area of the triangle2 = 1 / 2 × 15 × 7 = 52.5 m²

area of the rectangle1 = 8 × 3 = 24 m²

area of rectangle2 = 7 × 6 = 42 m²

area of rectangle3 = 5 × 6 = 30 m²

Therefore,

area of the composite figure = 65 + 52.5 + 24 + 42 + 30 = 213.5 meters squared

Answer:X=110/121

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 100 by 1.21 then by x

121x=110

Divide both side by 121

X=110/121

X=0.91
