A box is formed by cutting squares from the four corners of a sheet of paper and folding up the sides.
Suppose the paper is 7"-wide by 9"-long.
a. Estimate the maximum volume for this box?
b. What cutout length produces the maximum volume?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

To answer this question it is necessary to find the volume of the box as a function of "x", and apply the concepts of a maximum of a function.

The solution is:

a) V (max) = 36.6 in³

b) x = 1.3 in

The volume of a cube is:

V(c) = w×L×h  ( in³)

In this case, cutting the length  "x" from each side, means:

wide of the box    ( w - 2×x )   equal to  ( 7 - 2×x )

Length of the box ( L - 2×x )   equal to  ( 9 - 2×x )

The height  is  x

Then the volume of the box,  as a function of x is:

V(x) = ( 7 - 2×x ) × ( 9 -2×x ) × x

V(x) = ( 63 - 14×x - 18×x + 4×x²)×x

V(x) = 4×x³ - 32×x² + 63×x

Tacking derivatives,  on both sides of the equation

V´(x) = 12×x² - 64 ×x + 63

If   V´(x) = 0      then      12×x² - 64 ×x + 63 = 0

This expression is a second-degree equation, solving for x

x₁,₂ = [ 64 ± √ (64)² - 4×12*63

x₁ =  ( 64 + 32.74 )/ 24

x₁ = 4.03     this value  will bring us an unfeasible solution,  since it is not possible to cut 2×4 in from a piece of paper of 7 in ( therefore we dismiss that value)

x₂ = ( 64 - 32.74)/24

x₂ = 1.30 in

The  maximum volume of the box is:

V(max) = ( 7 - 2.60) × ( 9 - 2.60)×1.3

V(max) = 4.4 × 6.4 × 1.3

V(max) = 36.60 in³

To chek for maximum value of V when x = 1.3

we find the second derivative of V  V´´,  and substitute the value of x = 1.3,    if the relation is smaller than 0,  we have a maximum value of V

V´´(x) = 24×x - 64 for x = 1.3

V´´(x) = 24× 1.3 - 64            ⇒   V´´(x) < 0

Then the value  x = 1.3 will bring maximum value for V

An airplane is flying overhead at a constant elevation of 4090 ft. A person is viewing the plane from a position 3010 ft from the base of a radio tower. The airplane is flying horizontally away from the person. If the plane is flying at the rate of 700 ft/s, at what rate is the distance between the person and the plane increasing when the plane passes over the radio tower

Answers

Answer:

415 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

I've attached a diagram showing the triangle formed between the plane, the person and the radio tower.

From the attached diagram, x represents the position between the person and the position on the ground directly below the airplane while s represents the distance between the person and the plane.

The constant elevation remains 4090 ft while the value of x and s varies with time.

Thus, x varies with respect to time as dx/dt while s varies with respect to time as ds/dt.

Now, we are told that the plane is flying at the rate of 700 ft/s. This means that; dx/dt = 700 ft/s

Now we want to find the rate at which the distance between the person and the plane is increasing when the plane passes over the radio tower.

This means that we want to find ds/dt when x = 3010 ft

From pythagoras theorem if x = 3010 ft and the Elevation remains 4090 ft, we can find s as;

s = √(4090² + 3010²)

s = √25788200

s ≈ 5078.21 ft

Since we want to find ds/dt at x = 3010 ft, from the diagram, we can say from pythagoras theorem that;

x² + 4090² = s²

Differentiating x and s with respect to t, we have;

2x(dx/dt) = 2s(ds/dt)

2 will cancel out to give;

x(dx/dt) = s(ds/dt)

ds/dt = (x/s)(dx/dt)

Plugging in 700 for dx/dt, 3010 for x and 5078.21 for s, we have;

ds/dt = (3010/5078.21) × 700

ds/dt ≈ 415 ft/s

Answers

The answer is A, just so you know this was the best math class I’ve ever been in

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The amount paid by Marta for the cookbook is $7.80.

What are Percentages?

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

As it is given that the original price of the cookbook was $13, Marta bought it for 40% off. Therefore, Marta only paid 60% of the original cost,

[tex]\text{Amount paid by Marta} = \text{60\% of the original cost}\\\\\text{Amount paid by Marta} = \dfrac{60}{100} \times \$13\\\\\text{Amount paid by Marta} = \$7.8[/tex]

Thus, the amount paid by Marta for the cookbook is $7.80.

''Store A'' has the least amount to pay for an item at price of 291.60.

What is mean by Percentage?

A number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 or a relative value indicating hundredth part of any quantity is called percentage.

To Calculate the percent of a number , divide the number by whole number and multiply by 100.

Given that;

Price : 360

Hence,

Store A: Sale of 10% off and a successive discount of 10% off.

360 x (100-10)% = 360 x 90% = 324

324 x (100-10)% = 324 x 90% = 291.60

Store B: Sale of 15% with no additional discount

360 x (100-15)% = 360 x 85% = 306

Store C: Sale of $35 off and a successive discount of 10% off

360 - 35 = 325

325 x (100-10)% = 325 x 90% = 292.50

Hence, Store A has the least amount to pay for an item at price of 291.60

A solid is formed by rotating the region bounded by the curve y = e^-3x/2 and the x axis between x=0 and x=1 around the xaxis. The volume of this solid is pi/3 * (1 - e^-3). Assuming the solid has constant density delta, find x and y.
x=
y =

Answers

Answer:

x = .28

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Voume of disk = pi *r^2 = pi * e^-3x deltax

x = integal 0 to 1 of x * delta*pi*e^-3x deltax / mass = (delta*pi) integal 0 to 1 of x * e^-3x deltax/mass = (delta*pi)0.08898/mass

mass = sigma *(volume)=delta(pi/3*(1-e^-3)) =delta(.995)

x = (delta*pi)0.08898/delta(.995) = .28

by symmetry y=0

A solid is formed by rotating the region bounded by the curve y = e^-3x/2 and the x axis between x=0 and x=1 around the x axis.  Then value of x is 0.28 and y is 0.

What is Volume?

Volume is defined as the space occupied within the boundaries of an object in three-dimensional space.

The volume of disk is given by formula πr²

Volume of disk =  πr²= π × e⁻³ˣ Δx

[tex]x=\int\limits^0_1 {x} \, \pi e^{-3x} dx[/tex]

= (delta.π) integal 0 to 1 of x × e⁻³ˣ delta x/mass

= (delta. π) 0.08898/mass

mass = sigma ×(volume)=delta( π/3*(1-e⁻³)) =delta(0.995)

x = (delta*π)0.08898/delta(0.995) = 0.28

x=0.28

and by symmetry y=0

Hence the value of x is 0.28 and value of y is 0.

Inserting Arithmetic Means (AM's)

Suppose we want to insert n equally-spaced numbers inside a given interval with endpoints [x,y].

To place n numbers, we need to open n+1 spaces, at the end of which, a new number will be placed. The given interval is then divided into n+1 rational numbers of a value (y-x)/(n+1).

We need to insert 6 AM's between 15 and -13. Each AM will be inserted at a space of (-13-15)(6+1)=-28/7=-4.

Since D can live with A, D is a dog

F is a cat since it can live with D

E is therefore, a dog

Step 2: We then identify the house each two animals live in pairs of a cat and a dog

D lives in a blue house

A lives in a yellow house since it does not live with D or in a red house

C lives with D in a blue house since D does not live with either A or F

E lives in a red house since it does not live with A or in a yellow house

F lives with E in a red house since E does not live with A

Therefore, B lives with A in a yellow house
