A small bank vault is being designed in the shape of a rectangular prism. The vault’s sides and top should all be 3 feet thick. The outer length of the vault should be twice the outer width. The outer height should be the same as the outer width. What should the outer dimensions of the vault be if is to have 972 cubic feet of space?
(^ incase the words got cut off in the pic)
Answers
This represents the exterior length, width and height in that order.
============================================================
Work Shown:
The steps you have written so far are 100% correct.
From there, you multiply the interior width, length and height to get the interior volume 972. Solve for x
So,
(length)*(width)*(height) = volume
(2x-6)(x-6)(x-3) = 972
(2x-6)(x^2-9x+18) = 972
2x(x^2-9x+18)-6(x^2-9x+18) = 972
2x^3-18x^2+36x-6x^2+54x-108 = 972
2x^3-24x^2+90x-108 = 972
2x^3-24x^2+90x-108-972 = 0
2x^3-24x^2+90x-1080 = 0
2(x^3-12x^2+45x-540) = 0
x^3-12x^2+45x-540 = 0
From here, we can use the factor by grouping method
x^3-12x^2+45x-540 = 0
(x^3-12x^2)+(45x-540) = 0
x^2(x-12)+45(x-12) = 0
(x^2+45)(x-12) = 0
Setting each factor equal to 0 leads to....
x^2+45 = 0 doesn't have any real valued solutions for x, since sqrt(-45) is a complex number. We'll ignore this case and move on.x-12 = 0 solves to x = 12So x = 12 is the only solution here.
If x = 12, then we have these exterior dimensions:
length = 2x = 2*12 = 24 ftwidth = x = 12 ftheight = x = 12 ftThe outer dimensions are 24 ft by 12 ft by 12 ft
From that, the inner dimensions would be:
L = 24-6 = 18 ft
W = 12-6 = 6 ft
H = 12-3 = 9 ft.
Then note how L*W*H = 18*6*9 = 972 ft^3 to help confirm the answer.

In a test, +3 marks are given for every correct answer and -1 mark are given for every incorrect answer. Sona attempted all the questions and scored +20 marks, though she got 10 correct answers. How many incorrect answers has she attempted? (ii) How many questions were given in the test?
Answers
x = number of questions
3y = points for a correct answer
-1x or -x = points for an incorrect answer
Adding up the correct and incorrect points/answers gives us the final score. We can solve to see how many questions were incorrect. (We are told 10 were correct)
3y + (-1x) = 20
3(10) + (-1x) = 20
30 - x = 20
10 = x
x = 10
So she got 10 correct and 10 incorrect, and there were 20 questions in all.

Answers
Answer:
f. y-6 = 1/4(x-12)
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope eliminates some options right away :
slope = y/x = 1/4, because x has to increase by 8 units for y to increase by 2 unit (or then simplified 4 units for 1).
so, we only need to look at equations with 1/4 as factor of x.
a. covers (12,6) but not (4,4) - wrong
b. covers none of the 2 points - wrong
c., d., e. have the wrong slope
f. is right. for x=12 y is then 6. for x=4 y is then also 4. correct !

O salário mensal de um vendedor é de R$ 750,00 fixos mais 2,5% sobre o valor total em reais, das vendas que ele efetuar durante o mês. Em um mês em que suas vendas totalizaram x reais, o salário do vendedor será dado pela expressão: *
Answers
Responder:

Explicação passo a passo:
Dado que :
Rendimento Fixo = R $ 750
Ganho variável = 2,5% das vendas totais
Se vendas totais em um mês = x
O valor total ganho = custo fixo + variável
Custo variável = 2,5% * x = 0,025X
Custo total: 750 + 0,025X

Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a proportion to solve this problem

x = (29.53*20)/100 = $5.906 (value of the tip)
total cost = 29.53 + 5.906 = $35.436 = $35.44

Hi there!
[tex]\large\boxed{x = -1}[/tex]
We can solve by multiplying each term to get a common denominator:
[tex]\frac{1}{x - 4} + \frac{x}{x - 2} = \frac{2}{x^2-6x+8}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x -2}{(x - 4)(x - 2)} + \frac{x(x - 4)}{(x - 2)(x - 4)} = \frac{2}{x^2-6x+8}[/tex]
Since the denominators are all the same (x² - 6x + 8 factors to (x - 2)(x - 4)), we can ignore them temporarily and solve the numerator:
x - 2 + x(x - 4) = 2
Simplify:
x - 2 + x² - 4x = 2
x² - 3x - 4 = 0
Factor:
(x - 4)(x + 1) = 0
x = -1, 4
For the values of x to be a solution, they cannot cause the denominator to be equal to 0, so:
(x - 2)(x - 4) = 0
x = 2, 4. These values result in a denominator of 0, which is undefined.
Thus, the only solution is x = -1.

B.12
C.4
D.10
Answers
Answer:
The answer is D
......(don't mind this it's because it says that it needs to be 20 characters long) but the answer is D
Explanation:
Let (7, 2) be (x1, y1) and (-3, 2) be (x2, y2)
Using the Distance Formula,
d = sqrt[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2]
= sqrt[(- 3 - 7)^2 + (2 - 2)^2]
= sqrt[(-10)^2 + 0]
= sqrt[100]
= 10 units
