A Box Without A Top Is To Be Made From A Rectangular Piece Of Cardboard, With Dimensions 4 In. By 8 In.,
A Box Without A Top Is To Be Made From A Rectangular Piece Of Cardboard, With Dimensions 4 In. By 8 In.,
Answer 2

The value of x for the greatest volume is 1.5 in.

What is volume?

Volume is the measure of the 3-dimensional space occupied by matter, or enclosed by a surface, measured in cubic units.

Given that, A box without a top is to be made from a rectangular piece of cardboard, with dimensions 4 in. by 8 in., by cutting out square corners with side length x and folding up the sides.

v = x(8-2x)(10-2x)

v = x(4x²-36x+80)

v = 4x³-36x²+80x

Now,

The greatest volume will occur when the velocity of v(x) is zero.

dv/dx = 12x²-72x+80

dv/dx = 0 when

x = (72±√1344)/24

Since, 0 < x < 4  (because of the constraints on x for volume to have meaning)

x ≈ 1.5 in

Hence, the value of x for the greatest volume is 1.5 in.

There are 287 basketball fans who plan to go to a game. How many buses will be needed, given that each bus can hold 34 fans?

Answers

Answer:

9 buses will be needed but 9 bus will be empty there will be very small amount of fans in the 9th bus.

9 buses.
Explanation:
We divide the number of basketball fans by the number of fans that can be accommodated by the bus. We get 8.4
Since we cannot cut the bus into 0.4 we add another bus so that everyone will get to go.
Another method is
Multiply 8 buses by 34 fans. We get 272 fans will be able to go to a game.
This means that some fans will be left by the bus but our goal is to have everyone go.
And thus we need the 9th bus to carry the remaining 15 fans

Solve the system by substitution. Then check the solution again in each equation.
y =-2x - 6
y = x + 15

Answers

y - -2x - 6 (1)
y = x+15 (2)

From (2) we get x = y-15
We put that in (1) and we get -2(y-15)-6 = y
-2y+30-6 = y
-2y+24=y
-2y+24-y=0
-3y+24 = 0 ==> -3y = -24 ==> y = 8

We put that value in (2) and we get x = 8-15 = -7

Now in order to verify this, we replace the variables and see if (1) = (2)

y = -2x - 6 ==> (-2 * -7) - 6 = 14-6 = 8 (1')
y = x + 15 = -7 + 15 = 8 (2')

(1') = (2') ==> the solution is x = -7 and y = 8

Answer:

x=−2y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the value of x from the first equation:x=2−2y (1)and substitute for x into the second:y=2(2−2y)+6

solve for y ;y=4−4y+6y=105=2

Substitute back into

(1) and find :x=2−4=−2

Four basketball coaches bought sweatshirts for the players on each of their teams. The table below shows the total amount each coach paid. What is the median price of a sweatshirt for the four teams?

Answers

Answer:

1310

Step-by-step explanation:

Because, you have to add the biggest number which is 380, to the second to biggest number which is 360, which will both get you to 740. Then you have to add the 740 to 300 which both gives you 1040 and then last but not least you have to add, 1040 and 270 together which will give you 1310 and that's your answer. :)

It would be $330 for the median price. My method to solve this was writing out the total prices is order from least to greatest; 270, 300, 360, 380 and then crossing on off on either side until i’m left with one in the middle, that being the median, or two left in the middle. In this case, there were two in the middle. What you do then is find the middle of those two middle numbers. The middle of 300 and 360 is 330. Here’s it written out for a visual example.

Answer:

Volume of triangular prism = 126

Volume of composite figure = 462

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a triangular prism is base area x height

Here the base of the triangular prism has sides 7(the vertical side) and 6(the horizontal side). The are of this base = area of the triangle = 1/2 * 7 * 6 = 21

(Area of a triangle is 1/2 x b x h where b is base and h is height)

The volume of the prism is simply this area x width = 21 x 6 = 126

To get the composite figure volume add the volume of the rectangular prism so we get 126 + 336 = 462

Answer:

126 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the triangular prism can be calculated using the formula below:

Volume of prism= base area ×height

Area of base

= area of triangle

= ½ ×base ×height

= ½(6)(7)

= 21 cm²

The height of the triangle is the same as the length of the 7cm side of the rectangle.

In this figure, the height of the prism is 6 cm.

Volume of triangular prism

= 21(6)

= 126 cm³

_______

Area of composite figure

= area of rectangular prism +area of triangular prism

= 336 +126

= 462 cm³
