Answer: v = -3

=========================================

Work Shown:

$5 = \sqrt{-2-6v}+1\\\\5-1 = \sqrt{-2-6v}\\\\4 = \sqrt{-2-6v}\\\\4^2 = \left(\sqrt{-2-6v}\right)^2 \ \text{ .... square both sides}\\\\16 = -2-6v\\\\16+2 = -6v\\\\18 = -6v\\\\-6v = 18\\\\v = 18 \div (-6)\\\\v = -3$

As you can see, we don't square both sides until the square root portion is fully isolated or on its own side. So it happens after we subtract 1 from both sides.

Technically, you are able to square both sides without first isolating the square root. But that would mean you'd have to use the FOIL rule and things would get a bit messier than they have to be. Not to mention that the square root term wouldn't fully go away (so you'd have to square again later down the line).

------------------

Checking the answer:

Replace every copy of v with -3. Simplify both sides. We should end up with the same number on each side

$5 = \sqrt{-2-6v}+1\\\\5 = \sqrt{-2-6(-3)}+1\\\\5 = \sqrt{-2+18}+1\\\\5 = \sqrt{16}+1\\\\5 = 4+1\\\\5 = 5\\\\$

The answer is confirmed.

If an open box has a square base and a volume of 115 in.3 and is constructed from a tin sheet, find the dimensions of the box, a

Karolina [17]

Let h = height of the box,
x = side length of the base.

Volume of the box is $V=x^{2} h = 115$ .
So $h = \frac{115}{ x^{2} }$

Surface area of a box is S = 2(Width • Length + Length • Height + Height • Width).
So surface area of the box is
$S = 2( x^{2} + hx + hx) \\ = 2 x^{2} + 4hx \\ = 2 x^{2} + 4( \frac{115}{ x^{2} } )x$
$= 2 x^{2} + \frac{460}{x}$
The surface are is supposed to be the minimum. So we'll need to find the first derivative of the surface area function and set it to zero.

$S' = 4x- \frac{460}{ x^{2} } = 0$
$4x = \frac{460}{ x^{2} } \\ 4x^{3} = 460 \\ x^{3} = 115 \\ x = \sqrt[3]{115} = 4.86$
Then $h= \frac{115}{4.86^{2}} = 4.87$
So the box is 4.86 in. wide and 4.87 in. high.
