A baker is folding up open-topped boxes to package up her baked goods. She has

flat, rectangular pieces of cardboard that are 10 inches by 6 inches. She wants to

maximize the volume of the box. What size squares should she cut from the corners

of the cardboard?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She should cut 1.21 inches (or a square of area 1.46 inch²) from 4 corners to get the maximum volume

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = L = 10 inches

Width = W = 6 inches

Suppose x is cut from the 4 corners to make a box.

Dimensions of the Box:

L= 10 - 2x

W = 6 - 2x

H = x

Volume of the Box:

V = (L)(W)(H)

V = (10-2x)(6-2x)(x)

V = 4x³ -  32x² + 60x

For Maximum value:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dx}=0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(4x^3-32x+60x)\\\frac{dV}{dx}=12x^2-64x+60\\12x^2-64x+60 = 0[/tex]

The values of x found are:

x= 4.12 , x = 1.21

If we put x= 4.12 in W= 6-2x , the value of width becomes negative, so that is not possible.

We discard 4.12. Now x=1.21

So,

If 1.21 inches are cut from 4 corners, or a square of 1.21*1.21 = 1.46 inch² is cut from 4 corners, we get the maximum value of V

Answer:

functions f(x) and g(x) share one root in common that of x=2 and each have another different root

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that function g(x) has for roots the values x = -1 and x = 2, (these are the crossings of the x axis that you see in the graph)

On the other hand, the function f(x) has two roots that are obtained by factoring it out:

[tex]f(x)=x^2+x-6\\f(x)= x^2-2x+3x-6\\f(x)=x(x-2)\,+\,3(x-2)\\f(x)=(x-2)\,(x+3)[/tex]

Therefore it has roots at x=2 and x= -3

So functions f(x) and g(x) share one root in common that of x=2 and each have another different root

a plane flies 1640 miles in 4 hours. what is the average speed of the plane?

Answers

The answer to that question would be 410 miles per hour

Answer:

Speed = Distance / Time

Distance = 1640 miles, Time = 4 hours

Speed = 1640/4

Speed = 410 miles/hour

Answers

Answer:

3:11 and 6:22

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 2:14, 12:6, and 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

2:1 and 12:6 are equal because you can multiply the 2 and 1 in 2:1 by 6 to get to 12:6.

But 2:14 is not equal to the ratio 2:1, because you can't multiply 2 and 1 to any one number to equal the ratio 2:14.

Airborne Airlines Inc. has a $1,000 par value bond outstanding with 20 years to maturity. The bond carries an annual interest payment of $102 and is currently selling for $880. Airborne is in a 30 percent tax bracket. The firm wishes to know what the aftertax cost of a new bond issue is likely to be. The yield to maturity on the new issue will be the same as the yield to maturity on the old issue because the risk and maturity date will be similar.


a. Compute the yield to maturity on the old issue and use this as the yield for the new issue. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)


b. Make the appropriate tax adjustment to determine the aftertax cost of debt. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

(a) 11.64%

(b) 8.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Airborne airlines has an annual interest of payment= $102

Principal payment= $1,000

Time to maturity= 20 years

Current price of the bond= $880

The formular for calculating the yield on maturity is

[ Annual interest payment+Principal payment-(price of the bond/number of years to maturity)] / 0.6(price of the bond) + 0.4(principal payment)

(a) [102+(1000-880)/20)]/ [0.6(880) + 0.4(1000)]

= [102+ (120/20)]/ [528+400]

= [102+6]/ 928

= 108/928

= 11.637%

= 11.64% ( to 2 decimal places)

(b) Kd= Yield(1-T)

Kd= 11.64(1-0.30)

Kd= 11.64×0.7

Kd= 8.145%

Kd= 8.15%( to 2 decimal places)

Hence the yield to maturity on the new issue is 11.64% and the aftertax cost of debt is 8.15%

The cost of the book is $150.

______________________________Explanation:

CP = [tex]\frac{SP(100)}{100 + PP}[/tex]

Basically, what this formula is saying is that to find the cost price (CP), we must multiply the sale price (SP) by 100, and divide the product by the sum of 100 + profit percentage (PP).

CP = [tex]\frac{180(100)}{100 + 20}[/tex]

CP = [tex]\frac{18000}{120}[/tex]

CP = 150

       

Answer:

$150

Step-by-step explanation:

let cp=x

(20/100*x) +x=180

1/5x+x=180

6x/5=180

6x=180*5

x=(180*5)/6

x=150

Find equation of a line passing through the pair of points. Write the equation in the form Ax+By=C (-2,2)and(-3,-9)

Answers

Answer:

11x - y = - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the line first find the slope

Slope of the line using points

(-2,2)and(-3,-9) is

[tex]m = \frac{ - 9 - 2}{ - 3 + 2} = \frac{ - 11}{ - 1} = 11[/tex]

Then use the formula

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) can be any of the points

Equation of the line using point (-2,2) and slope 11 is

y - 2 = 11 ( x + 2)

y - 2 = 11x + 22

11x - y = - 2 - 22

We have the final answer as

11x - y = - 24

Mr. Landry, the owner of Blissful Bites Bakery, prepares 30 pounds of cake batter each morning. Mr. Landry uses half of the cake batter to make large cupcakes. If he makes 48 cupcakes, how many ounces of cake batter does he use for each cupcake?

Answers

Answer:

5 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Landry prepares 30 pounds of cake batter each morning and he uses half of the cake batter to make large cupcakes.

This means that he uses 15 pounds of cake batter.

He makes 48 cupcakes with the batter.

Therefore, the number of pounds of batter he uses per cake is:

15 / 48 = 0.3125 pounds

We have to convert it to ounces.

1 pound = 16 ounces

=> 0.3125 pounds = 16 * 0.3125 = 5 ounces

He uses 5 ounces of cake batter for each cake.

e) – 21x 3 y – 9x 2 y 2

Answers

Answer:

– 21x^3 y – 9x^2 y^2 e) is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system for A and B:

{A = 7 x^2 + 3 x y

B = -3 x y

Express the system in matrix form:

(1 | 0

0 | 1)(A

B) = (7 x^2 + 3 x y

-3 x y)

Write the system in augmented matrix form and use Gaussian elimination:

(1 | 0 | 7 x^2 + 3 x y

0 | 1 | -3 x y)

Collect results:

Answer: {A = 7 x^2 + 3 x y  , B = -3 x y

then we multiply the results (7 x^2 + 3 x y) ( -3 x y) =  – 21x^3 y – 9x^2 y^2
