6. Sabrina is making an open box from a piece of cardboard that has a width of 12 inches and a length of 18 inches. She'll form the box by making cuts at the corners and folding up the sides. If she wants the box to have a volume of 224 in3, how long should she make the cuts?
Part I: Each dimension (width, length, and height) of the finished box can be represented by a polynomial expression. If the height is x inches, what is the length in terms of x? (2 points)
Height = x
Width = 12 – 2x
Length =
Part II: The formula for volume is v = l • w • h. Use the polynomial expressions from Part I to write an equation to represent the volume of the box. Simplify on the right side by multiplying the polynomials and writing the answer in descending order. Show your work.
HINT: First multiply the binomials representing length and width. Next, multiply the resulting trinomial by the expression representing height. (3 points)
v =
Part III: The length of each cut at the corners is represented by x. To make a box, x must fall in a certain range of values. For example, x cannot be 15 because that would make the flap longer than the width of the box. Identify one reasonable value of x. Why did you choose that value? (2 points)
Part IV: Use the polynomial equation you wrote in Part II to find the volume of the box for each value of x. Show your work. (5 points)


Sagot :

Answer:

Part I:  The degree of a polynomial is the greatest of the degrees of its terms.

Part II:  In order to write a polynomial in descending order, you must write the terms with the exponents decreasing from left to right.

Part III: A. -4x² + 11x - 12, degree = 2,

B. 5x³ + 4x + 14, degree = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part I : Since the degree of a polynomial is the highest power of its monomials ( single term ),

e: degree of is 5.

Thus, in part I, the correct option is 'greatest'

Part II: When we write a polynomial then we write the terms of the polynomial in descending order of their degrees.

Thus, in part II the correct option is 'least'

Part III: A.  

∵ -4x² has the highest power in the polynomial.

⇒ Degree = 2,

Also, in the polynomial descending order of degrees,

2 > 1 > 0

⇒ polynomial in descending order,

B.  

Combining like terms,

∵ 5x³ has the highest degree,

⇒ Degree = 3,

Also, the order of the degrees in the polynomial is,

3 < 2 < 1 < 0

Thus, the polynomial in descending order,
