Answer:
1.81 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the sheet of metal to be used measures 12 inches by 10 inches.
Squares of equal sides x are cut out of each corner. Thus, it means total of 2x is cut of the 12 inches side and 10 inches side.
Thus;
Length; L = 12 - 2x
Width; W = 10 - 2x
Height; H = x
Volume of the box is;
V = LWH
V = (12 - 2x)(10 - 2x)x
Factorizing out, we have;
V = 4x[(6 - x)(5 - x)]
Equating V to zero, we can find the domain of the function;
At V = 0,
4x = 0; 6 - x = 0 ; 5 - x = 0
x = 0, x = 6, x = 5
The dimensions have to be positive. Thus;
0 ≤ x ≤ 5
Expanding the volume equation;
V = 4x[30 - 5x - 6x + x²]
V = 4x[30 - 11x + x²]
V = 4x³ - 44x² + 120x
dV/dx = 12x² - 88x + 120
Equating to zero to find the value of x that makes volume maximum;
12x² - 88x + 120 = 0
Using quadratic formula gives;
x = 1.81 or 5.52
From our domain, we have 0 ≤ x ≤ 5.
1.81 falls within the domain and therefore we will pick it as the height that makes the volume maximum.

Rhombus ABCD has the following vertices:
A(-8,11)
B(-1, -13)
C(14,7)
D(7,31)
Is rhombus ABCD a square, and why?
Answer: No because BC is not perpendicular to AB.
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, rhombus ABCD is a square as all four angles of the rhombus are right angles.
A square is a special type of rhombus where all four sides have the same length and all four angles are right angles.
In this case, we can see that all four sides of the rhombus have the same length by calculating the distance between each pair of vertices. For example, the distance between A and B is:
distance = [tex]\sqrt{[/tex] [tex]((-8 - (-1))^2[/tex] + [tex](11 - (-13))^2[/tex])
distance = [tex]\sqrt{[/tex] ([tex]7^2[/tex] + [tex]24^2[/tex])
distance = [tex]\sqrt{[/tex] (625) = 25
The distance between each other pair of vertices is also 25, so all four sides of the rhombus have the same length.
We can also see that all four angles of the rhombus are right angles by calculating the angles between each pair of adjacent sides. For example, the angle between sides AB and BC is:
angle = arctan((13 - (-13))/(-8 - (-1)))
angle = arctan(26/7)
angle = 78.6°
The angle between each other pair of adjacent sides is also 78.6°, so all four angles of the rhombus are right angles.
Therefore, rhombus ABCD is a square.

Write equations (both, Point Slope & Slope Intercept Forms) of the line with
slope of -2 and point (9,2).
Answer:
Equation of line in Point Slope Form is [tex]\mathbf{y-2=-2(x-9)}[/tex]
Equation of line in Slope Intercept Form is: [tex]\mathbf{y=-2x+20}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to write equation of line having slope -2 and point (9,2)
a) Equation in Point Slope Form
The general equation of point slope form is: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]
Where x₁ and y₁ are the points of line and m is slope.
x₁=9 and y₁=2 and m=-2
Putting values in formula and finding equation:
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-2=-2(x-9)[/tex]
So, Equation of line in Point Slope Form is [tex]\mathbf{y-2=-2(x-9)}[/tex]
b) Equation in Slope Intercept Form
The general equation of Slope Intercept Form is: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
where m is slope and b is y-intercept
Finding y-intercept using slope m=-2 and point(9,2)
[tex]y=mx+b\\2=-2(9)+b\\2=-18+b\\b=2+18\\b=20[/tex]
The equation in slope m=-2 and b=20 is:
[tex]y=mx+b\\y=-2x+20[/tex]
So, equation of line in Slope Intercept Form is: [tex]\mathbf{y=-2x+20}[/tex]

the is factoring quadratics with a leading coefficient: 5x to the 2 power - 14x + 8
Answer:
The factorization of [tex]5x^2-14x+8[/tex] is (5x-4)(x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given quadratic polynomial is:
[tex]5x^2-14x+8[/tex]
To factor a quadratic polynomial with leading co-efficient has to be factorized, the leading co-efficient and the constant are multiplied and pairs(a,b) of the product are made so that their sum or subtraction is equal to the co-efficient of x
We get 40 by multiplying 8 and 5
And the pair we get are: 10 and 4
[tex]=5x^2-10x-4x+8\\=5x(x-2)-4(x-2)\\=(5x-4)(x-2)[/tex]
Hence,
The factorization of [tex]5x^2-14x+8[/tex] is (5x-4)(x-2)

Find the values of a and b such that x² - 2x + 2 = ( x - a )² + b
Answer:
a = b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 2x + 2 = ( x - a )² + b
x² - 2x + 2 = ( x² - 2x + 1) - 1 + 2 = (x - 1)² + 1

The length of a rectangle is twice the width if the perimeter of the rectangle 60 units find the area of the rectangle
Answer:
200
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = 2w
2w + 2l = 60
substitute l out with 2w
2w + 2(2w) = 60
2w + 4w = 60
w = 10
l = 20
Area = w • l
= 10 • 20
= 200
