Emily and Lily are reading the same copy of the same book for a summer reading assignment.

Mathematics
1 answer:
AnnZ [12.3K]2 months ago
7 0

Answer:

Detaile explanation:

emily : 16 + 22x....where x represents the days

Lily : 24 + 18x

Setting up the equation: 16 + 22x = 24 + 18x

Combine terms: 22x - 18x = 24 - 16

Thus, we get 4x = 8

So, x = 8/4

Consequently, x = 2 <==== they will be reading the same page after 2 days

Substituting x back gives: 16 + 22x = 16 + 22(2) = 16 + 44 = 60

For Lily: 24 + 18x = 24 + 18(2) = 24 + 36 = 60

Thus, both will reach page 60 at the same time <===

Mai wants to make an open top box by cutting out corners of a square piece of cardboard and folding up the sides. The cardboard
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

V(x)=(4x^{3}-40x^{2}+100x)\ cm^3

The variable x lies within the interval of all positive real numbers less than 5 cm.

Detailed solution:

Problem statement:

Determine the volume of the open-topped box as a function of the side length x (in centimeters) of the square cutouts.

Refer to the provided diagram for clarity.

Define:

x → length in centimeters of each square cutout side

The volume of the box with open top can be written as:

V=LWH

Given this, we have:

L=(10-2x)\ cm

W=(10-2x)\ cm

H=x)\ cm

By substitution:

V(x)=(10-2x)(10-2x)x\\\\V(x)=(100-40x+4x^{2})x\\\\V(x)=(4x^{3}-40x^{2}+100x)\ cm^3

Determine the domain of x:

Because:

(10-2x) > 0\\10> 2x\\ 5 > x\\x < 5\ cm

Therefore:

Domain is the interval (0,5)

That means all real numbers strictly greater than zero and less than 5 cm are valid for x.

Hence, the volume V as a function of x is:

V(x)=(4x^{3}-40x^{2}+100x)\ cm^3

Choose the correct item from each drop-down menu to factor the trinomial 6y2 + 19y + 15 by grouping.
AnnZ [12381]

Answer: (3y - 5) • (2y - 3)

Step-by-step explanation: 6y2 - 10y - 9y - 15

2.1 Factoring 6y2-19y+15

The leading term is 6y2, with a coefficient of 6.

The middle term is -19y, having a coefficient of -19.

The last term is the constant, which is +15.

Malik randomly picked two numbers from 1 to 9 (Includin 1 and 9). the same number could be picked more than once. The first of t
tester [12383]

Response:

2/9 = 0.22

Clarification:

There are two ways to select the first number that is odd and less than 5: 1 and 3.

For each of these, the second number drawn can be any of the values from 1 to 9, giving us a total of 18 options.

Out of these, the only pairs that result in a sum less than 5 are (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), and (3,1). Thus we have 4 combinations from the total of 18:

4/18 = 2/9 = 0.22

Drag and drop an answer to each box to correctly complete the explanation for deriving the formula for the volume of a sphere.
lawyer [12517]
The formula for the volume of a sphere can be derived as follows. We will approach this through calculus, utilizing the concept of a solid of revolution; this is a three-dimensional shape formed by rotating a two-dimensional curve around a straight line (the axis of revolution) that lies within the same plane. From calculus, we know that we will generate a shape by rotating the specified circumference. Next, we isolate y and utilize certain limits for this integral.

1. A certain ceiling is made up of tiles. Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles.
Svet_ta [12734]
Every square meter of ceiling needs 10.75 tiles. To calculate the number of tiles needed for various ceiling areas: For a ceiling area of 1, it requires 10.75 tiles. For a ceiling area of 10, it requires 10.75 × 10, which equals 107.5 tiles. For an area of 100, it needs 10.75 × 100, totaling 1075 tiles. Consequently, that represents the necessary solution.
