Answer:
a) [tex]x =\dfrac{a+b -\sqrt{(a + b)^2 - 3\cdot a \cdot b} }{6}[/tex]
b) The volume of the box is maximized when 'x' is approximately 1.585 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let 'a' represent the length of the rectangular sheet of paper and let 'b' represent the with of the rectangular sheet of paper, we have;
The length of the side of the square cut from the corners of the rectangular sheet of paper = x
The length of the box formed after cutting the square sides are;
The length of the box, l = a - 2·x
The width of the box, w = b - 2·x
The height of the box, h = x
The volume of the box, V = l × w × h = (a - 2·x)·(b - 2·x)·x = 4·x³ - 2·a·x² - 2·b·x² + a·b·x
The value of 'x' that gives the maximum volume of the box is given by finding the extremum of the volume, 'V', of the box as follows;
At the extremum, dV/dx = 0
∴ d(4·x³ - 2·a·x² - 2·b·x² + a·b·x)/dx = 12·x² - 4·a·x - 4·b·x + a·b = 0
12·x² - 4·(a + b)·x + a·b = 0
[tex]x = \dfrac{4\cdot (a + b) \pm \sqrt{(-4\cdot (a + b) )^2-4 \times12\times a \cdot b } }{2 \times 24} =\dfrac{a+b\pm\sqrt{(a + b)^2 - 3\cdot a \cdot b} }{6}[/tex]
Found from part (b), the value of 'x' (in terms of 'a' and 'b') that maximizes the volume of the box is [tex]x =\dfrac{a+b -\sqrt{(a + b)^2 - 3\cdot a \cdot b} }{6}[/tex]
b), When a = 8.5 inches and b = 11 inches, we have;
x = (8.5 + 11 +√((8.5 + 11)² - 3×8.5×11))/6 = 4.914
x = (8.5 + 11 -√((8.5 + 11)² - 3×8.5×11))/6 ≈ 1.585
We get;
When x = 1.585, V = 4·1.585³ - 2·8.5·1.585² - 2·11·1.585² + 8.5·11·1.585 ≈ 66.15
When x = 4.914, V = 4·4.914³ - 2·8.5·4.914² - 2·11·4.914² + 8.5·11·4.914 ≈ -7.65
Therefore, the value of 'x' that gives the maximum volume of the box is x = (8.5 + 11 -√((8.5 + 11)² - 3×8.5×11))/6 ≈ 1.585
(The value of 'x' in terms of 'a' and 'b' is therefore;
[tex]x =\dfrac{a+b -\sqrt{(a + b)^2 - 3\cdot a \cdot b} }{6}[/tex])
The volume of the box is maximized when, x ≈ 1.585 feet

Suppose HIJK is a parallelogram. Find the value of x and y.
Answer:
x = 90, y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to this problem is the fact that opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent (their lengths are equal).
Set up and solve two equations, one for x and one for y.
x + 80 = 2x - 10
80 = x - 10
90 = x
--------------------------
3y - 4 = y + 20
2y - 4 = 20
2y = 24
y = 12

A)How many students were majoring in math only?
B)How many students were not majoring in computer science?
C) how many students were not math or computer science majors?
Answer:
Use n(u) formula of chapter sets
Step-by-step explanation:
Have a good day
11 students were majoring in math only; 13 students were not majoring in computer science; and 2 students were not math or computer science majors.
Given that in a class of 25 students, 18 were math majors, 12 were computer science majors, and 7 were dual majors in math and computer science, to determine A) how many students were majoring in math only; B) how many students were not majoring in computer science; and C) how many students were not math or computer science majors; the following calculation must be performed:
Math majors only = 18 - 7 = 11 Not majoring in computer science = 25 - 12 = 13 Not math or computer science majors = 25 - 7 - 11 - (12 - 7) = 18 - 11 - 5 = 2
Therefore, 11 students were majoring in math only; 13 students were not majoring in computer science; and 2 students were not math or computer science majors.

Is x=2 a solution to the equation below?
4(x-1)-3(x-2)=-8
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out if 2 is a solution, replace all the x's with 2.
4(2 - 1) - 3(2 - 2) =8
4(1) - 3(0) = 8
4 - 0 = 8
4 = 8

m∠1 =
Answer:
m∠1 = 70°
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Sum of angles on a straight line = 180°
Hence:
180° - 101°
= 79°
Sum of interior angles in a triangle = 180°
Hence
m∠1 = 180° - (79 ° + 31°)
m∠1 = 70°

2x + 2y = -2
3x - 2y = 12
Answer:
Answer:
(2,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 2y = -2
3x - 2y = 12
Add the two equations to eliminate y
2x + 2y = -2
3x - 2y = 12
-----------------------
5x = 10
5x/5 = 10/5
x = 2
Now find y
2x+2y = -2
2(2)+2y = -2
4+2y = -2
Subtract 4 from each side
4-4 +2y = -2-4
2y = -6
Divide by 2
2y/2 = -6/2
y = -3
(2,-3)
