A box is to be made out of a 12 by 20 piece of cardboard. Squares of equal size will be cut out of each corner, and then the ends and sides will be folded up to form a box with an open top. Find the length L , width W , and height H of the resulting box that maximizes the volume.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Box Dimensions:

L  = 15.15 ul

W = 7.15 ul

h = x = 2.43 ul

V(max) =    263.22 cu

Step-by-step explanation:

We call x the length of the square to be cut in the corners then:

Are of the base of the box is:

(20 - 2*x)  is the future length of the box and

(12 - 2*x) will be the width

The heigh is x  then the volume of the box is:

V = ( 20 - 2*x )* ( 12 - 2*x ) * h

And the volume as a function of x is:

V(x) = ( 20 - 2*x) * ( 12 - 2*x ) * x     or   V(x) = (240 -40*x -24*x + 4*x²) * x

V(x) =  240*x - 64*x² + 4*x³

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

V´(x) = 240 - 128*x + 12*x²

V´(x)  =  0              240 - 128*x + 12*x²  = 0    or     60 - 32*x + 3*x²

3*x²  -  32*x  +  60  = 0

Solving:

x₁,₂  =  32  ± √ (32)² - 4*3*60 ]/ 2*3

x₁,₂  =  32  ± √ 1024 - 720 )/6

x₁,₂  = ( 32  ± √ 304 )/6

x₁,₂  = ( 32  ± 17.44 )/6

x₁  =  8.23      ( we dismiss this solution because is not feasible 2*x > 12

x₂ = 2.43  u.l ( units of length)

Then

L  =  20 - 2*x      L  = 20  - 4.85     L  = 15.15 ul

W =  12 - 2*x      W = 12 - 4.85      W = 7.15 ul

h  =  2.43 ul

V = 2.43*7.15*15.15  cubic units

V =  263.22 cu

To see if when x = 2.43   function V has a maximum we go to the second derivative

V´´(x)  = - 128  + (24)*2.43

V´´(x) = - 69.68      as        V´´(x)  < 0   then we have a maximum for V(x) in the point x = 2.43

Which equation has the least steep graph A. y = 2x + 1 B. y = -7x-2 C. y=-3/4x-9 D. y = 1/4x+6​

Answers

Answer:

D. y = 1/4x + 6​

Step-by-step explanation:

In the linear equation y = mx + b, m is the slope.

A graph will be steeper if it has a larger slope, and less steep if it has a smaller slope.

So, to find which equation has the least steep graph, find which one has the smallest slope.

Out of the 4 equations, the smallest slope is 1/4. Although -7 is the smallest number, it still has a steep slope. The negative sign just makes it go in the other direction.

So, the equation with the least steep graph is D. y = 1/4x + 6​

Answer:D

Y= 1/4x +6

In AABC median AM is drawn from vertex A to BC, BM = 14x and MC = 6x + 56. Determine and
state the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A median bisects the opposite side length, therefore

14x = 6x+56

8x = 56,

x = 7

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

AM is the median

BM = 14x

MC = 6x + 5x

since the median is drawn fron vertex A to BC it bisects the BC into two equal halves. So,

14x = 6x + 54

14x - 6x = 54

8x = 54

x = 54/8

x = 7

. If XZ = 7x + 1 and PZ = 4x − 1, what is XP? 11
12 19 22

Answers

Answer:

XP = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that XZ = 7x + 1 and PZ = 4x − 1

From the diagram, XZ = 2PZ

7x + 1 = 2(4x-1)

7x+1 = 8x - 2

7x - 8x = -2 -1

-x = -3

x = 3

Since XP = PZ

XP = 4x - 1

XP = 4(3) - 1

XP = 12-1

XP = 11

find the value of x and y, (3x - 2y, 7) = (11, x + y)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,(3x-2y,7)=(11,x+y)

So,3x-2y=11...............(i)

      7=x+y

   or,x+y=7................(ii)

Now,Multiplying eqn.(ii) by 2,we get,

       2x+2y=14...........(iii)

Adding eqn(i) and eqn(iii),

        3x-2y+2x+2y=11+14

     or,5x=25

     or,x=5

Substituting value of x in eqn(i),

         5+y=7

      or,y=2

Hence,the values of x and y are 5 and 2 respectively.    

Determina la masa molar y el volumen que ocupa la siguiente sustancia CO2, si su masa es de 28 gr. *

Answers

Answer:

Para el CO₂ sabemos que:

densidad = 0,001976 g/cm³

Sabemos que:

densidad = masa/volumen

Entonces, si tenemos una masa de 28 g, podemos escribir:

volumen = masa/densidad

volumen = (28g)/(0,001976 g/cm³) = 14,170 cm^3

Para obtener la masa molar (es decir, la masa de un mol de esta sustancia) simplemente sumamos la masa de un mol de cada componente.

Carbono: tiene una masa molar de 12 g/mol

Oxígeno: tiene una masa molar de 16 g/mol (y tenemos dos oxígenos)

entonces la masa molar va a ser:

masa molar = 12g/mol + 2*16g/mol = 44 g/mol

Es decir, un mol de CO₂, pesa 44 gramos.

If the value of the mean is 55.78. Then the standard deviation will be 10.98.

What is a standard deviation?

It is the measure of the dispersion of statistical data. Dispersion is the extent to which the value is in a variation.

The data set is given below.

58, 77, 31, 54, 58, 54, 56, 58, 56.

Then the mean of the data set will be

Mean = (58 + 77 + 31 + 54 + 58 + 54 + 56 + 58 + 56) / 9

Mean = 502 / 9

Mean = 55.78

Then the standard deviation will be

[tex]\rm SD = \sqrt{\dfrac{(58 - 55.78)^2+(77-55.78)^2 + ..... + (56-55.78)^2 }{9}}\\\\SD = \sqrt { \dfrac{1085.5}{9}}\\[/tex]

On further solving we have

SD = 10.98

If the value of the mean is 55.78. Then the standard deviation will be 10.98.

In order to solve this, we need to know that for right-angled triangles the following is true:

[tex]c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2}[/tex] (where c is the hypotenuse and "a" and "b" are the legs)

From the formula above we can conlude that...

[tex]a = \sqrt{c^{2} - b^{2} }[/tex]

Now we just substitute the variable that we know and get that...

[tex]a = \sqrt{c^{2} - b^{2} }\\a = \sqrt{75^{2} - 60^{2} } \\a = \sqrt{5,625 - 3600} \\a = \sqrt{2025} \\a = 45[/tex]

Therefore a = 45millimeters.

The measure of angle OCD from the given figure is 58°.

Given that, the points A, B, C and D lie on a circle Centre O.

What is the circle?

A circle is a two-dimensional figure formed by a set of points that are at a constant or at a fixed distance (radius) from a fixed point (center) on the plane. The fixed point is called the origin or center of the circle and the fixed distance of the points from the origin is called the radius.

Here, OC and OB are radius of a circle, then BOC is isosceles triangle

Now, ∠BOC+∠OBC+∠OCB=180°

50°+∠OBC+∠OBC=180°

⇒ 2∠OBC=130°

⇒ ∠OBC=65°

Here, ∠OCD=∠BCD-65°

⇒ x=123-65=58°

Hence, the measure of angle OCD from the given figure is 58°.
