The maximum value that could be reached would be about 211.05 cubic inches.
The initial measurements of the box are:
Length: 17
Width: 12
Height: 0
Right now, the volume is zero. However, if we let the height equal 0 (the amount of the cut out), we can write the following equation for the volume.
Volume = (17 - 2x)(12 - 2x)x
If you graph this, you will find a maximum value of 211.05, keeping in mind that the cut out must be less than 6.
Answer:
Answer: x = –2 and x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: remove parentheses
1-7+2.5
step 2:simplify 1-7 to -6
-6+2.5
step 3 :simplify
-3.5
the answer is -3.5
M=3
You would begin by cross multiplying and then solving it from there:
5(m-3)=4(m-3)
5m-15=4m-12
5m-4m=-12+15
m=3
