A paper manufacturer is evaluating their packing procedures. Currently, they package twelve reams of paper in a box—in three stacks of four reams. However, their company has been getting complaints from the retail stores that the box is too large and heavy for the average consumer to carry by their self. So, they have decided to reduce the weight of each box by ten pounds. You have been asked to explore the different packing options based on the new weight condition and present your recommendation to the CEO of the paper company. Identify three unique ways to package the paper given the new weight condition. Include both the dimensions of the new boxes, as well as a verbal description of how the reams will be packaged. You may include sketches if you wish.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 stacks of 4 reams= 12 reams

Each ream weighs 5 pounds so reducing 10 pounds means removing 2 reams from the 12.

First option is 5+5= 2 stacks of 5/5 reams.

2 stacks of 5 each would be easy to carry. provided the stacks should be placed parallel to each other  which would increase the length making it comparatively longer. its easier to hold a (2*8, 11, 2*5 = 17, 11, 17) compact box

Second option is 2+3+3+2 = 4 stacks of  2/3/3/2 reams

Third option is  3+4+3= 3 stacks of 3/4/3 reams

Answers

Answer:

6. x = 3 7. x = 120 8. x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

the first question is x(-4) + 3 = -9

find the value of x :

-4x + 3 = -9

we can subtract 3 on both sides since we have a value of 3 on the left, which will cancel the value out.

-4x = -12

-4(3) = -12

therefore the answer to problem 6 is x=3

and for 7 :

x / 6 - 9 = 11

we can add 9 on both sides which will cancel it out;

x/6 = 20

120/6 = 20

therefore the answer to the question 7 is 120.

For problem 8 it says :

-3x -5 = 10

we can add 5 on both sides to get:

-3x = 15

-3(-5) = 15

therefore the answer to problem 8 is -5

find the area of this figure

Answers

Answer: 49.12 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of this figure, we can separate it into 2 parts. We can find the area of the semi circle and the area of the triangle. Then we add together to areas.

Area of Triangle

A=bh/2

A=6(8)/2

A=48/2

A= 24 ft²

Area of Semi Circle

A=πr²/2  (Divide by 2 because semi circle is half of a circle, so we divide the area by 2)

A=π(4)²/2

A=(3.14)(16)/2

A=25.12 ft²

Total area

A=24+25.12=49.12 ft²

Verify sin^4 x - sin^2 x = cos^4 x - cos^2 x is an identity

Answers

Answer:

(identity has been verified)

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify the following identity:

sin(x)^4 - sin(x)^2 = cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2

sin(x)^2 = 1 - cos(x)^2:

sin(x)^4 - 1 - cos(x)^2 = ^?cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2

-(1 - cos(x)^2) = cos(x)^2 - 1:

cos(x)^2 - 1 + sin(x)^4 = ^?cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2

sin(x)^4 = (sin(x)^2)^2 = (1 - cos(x)^2)^2:

-1 + cos(x)^2 + (1 - cos(x)^2)^2 = ^?cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2

(1 - cos(x)^2)^2 = 1 - 2 cos(x)^2 + cos(x)^4:

-1 + cos(x)^2 + 1 - 2 cos(x)^2 + cos(x)^4 = ^?cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2

-1 + cos(x)^2 + 1 - 2 cos(x)^2 + cos(x)^4 = cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2:

cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2 = ^?cos(x)^4 - cos(x)^2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations:

y = 6x-b  (eq. 1)

-3x+1/2y = -3 (eq. 2)

We can rewrite eq. 1 as follows:

-6x + y = -b

Dividing by 2:

(-6x + y)/2 = -b/2

-6x/2 + y/2 = -b/2

-3x + 1/2y = -b/2

The system of equations will have infinite number of solutions if both equations are equal. Therefore:

-b/2 = -3

b= -3*(-2)

b = 6

Find the equation of a line that passes through left parenthesis 1 comma 6 right parenthesis(1,6) and is parallel to the graph of y equals 4 x plus 5y=4x+5. Write the equation in​ slope-intercept form, if possible.

Answers

Answer:

The equation for the new line in slope-intercept form is:  

[tex]y=4x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they give us an equation in slope-intercept form "y=4x+5", it is easy to extract the slope the new parallel line to this should have : "4" (same slope as the reference line)

We are also given a point the new line should go through : "(1, 6)"

So we can use the "point-slope" form of a line to find the equation of this new line:

[tex]y-y_0=m(x=x_0)\\y=m(x-x_0)+y_0[/tex]

which for our case is:

[tex]y=m(x-x_0)+y_0\\y=4\,(x-1)+6\\y=4x-4+6\\y=4x+2[/tex]

Brandon decided to take his family to a water park and celebrate the end of the school year. The cost is $9.50 for parking and $15 for each person for the entire day.

a. Define the variable and write a linear equation for the situation

b. Use the equation to find the cost if Brandon has 5 members in his family

Answers

Answer: a) Cost(x) = $9.50 + $15*x

b)  $84.50

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If x is the number of members in the family, we can model this situation with a linear equation, where x is the variable.

We have:

A fixed $9.50 (this does not depend on the number of members in the family)

and $15 for each member, so the equation that represents this is:

Cost(x) = $9.50 + $15*x

b) now we have x = 5, then:

Cost(5) = $9.50 + $15*5 = $84.50

Answer:

a. y = 9.50 + 15a

b. total cost(y) = 84.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Brandon decided to take his family to a water park to celebrate the end of the school year.

The cost for parking is $ 9.50 which is a flat rate and compulsory rate for parked cars. The cost for each person is $15 .

a. The linear equation can be expressed below.  The variable required in the linear equation will be the number of people that entered the water park(a) and the total cost (y)

let

a = number of person for the entire day

total cost  = y

y = 9.50 + 15a

b. To find the cost for a whole family of 5 member can be calculated below.

Using the linear equation

total cost = 9.50 + 15a

total cost = 9.50 + 15(5)

total cost = 9.50 + 75

total cost(y)= 84.5

$20.9

Step-by-step explanation:

100%=22

95%=x

95x22=2090/100=20.9

Answer:

$20.95 (rounded)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you need to first make an equation where x is the original cost before tax. So it would be 22=1.05x. You know it is 1.05 because 1 is the "whole" original cost and 0.05 is the 5% tax in decimal form. To solve the equation, you divide both sides by 1.05 to get x=20.95

It is can written as

[tex]x^2+x-5=0[/tex]

If a quadratic equation is [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], then the quadratic formula is

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In the given quadratic equation [tex]a=1,b=1,c=-5[/tex]. So,
