The postal service delivered:
7.14 × 1010 pieces of mail in December
3.21 × 1010 pieces of mail in January
Total number of mail delivered is;
(7.14 + 3.21) × 1010
= 10.35 × 1010
= 1.035 × 10100 (in one decimal point form)
Answer:
The correct answer for this problem is
d) 1.035 x 10^11
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because I just did the test
b) Determine x so that the volume of the box is at least 450 cubic inches.
c) Determine x so that the volume of the box is maximum.
The volume of the box as a function of x V(x) = x ( 60 -2x )( 15-2x )
The volume of the box as a function of x inches 0.55 inches ≤ x ≤ 6.79
The volume of the box is maximum x ≥ 6.79 inches
Given ,
The box with no top that is to be made by removing squares of width x
The corners of a 15-in by 60-in piece of cardboard.
V(x) = x ( 60 -2x )( 15-2x )
Where : x = height , ( 60 - 2x ) = length , ( 15 -2x ) = width
The volume of the box as a function of x is V(x) = x ( 60 -2x )( 15-2x )
The volume of the box ≥ 450 inches
V(x) = x ( 60 -2x )( 15-2x )
The volume of the box is at least 450 cubic inches.0.55 inches ≤ x ≤ 6.79 inches

Answer:
a) V(x) = x ( 60 -2x )( 15-2x )
b) 0.55 inches ≤ x ≤ 6.79 inches
c) x ≥ 6.79 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
No top, cardboard dimensions ; 15-in by 60-in
a) A function for the volume of the box as a function of x the Volume can be represented by this function below
= V(x) = x ( 60 -2x )( 15-2x )
where : x = height , ( 60 - 2x ) = length , ( 15 -2x ) = width
b) determine x so that the volume of the box ≥ 450 inches
450 = x( 60 - 2x ) ( 15 -2x ) ( solving the equation )
0.55 inches ≤ x ≤ 6.79 inches
c ) The value of x for which volume of the box is maximum
will be x ≥ 6.79 inches
A.Which is the best comparison of the estimates and the actual product?
B.Both estimates will be less than the original product.
C. Both estimates will be greater than the original product.
Katie’s estimate will be less than the actual product, and Amaya’s estimate will be greater than the actual product.
D. Katie’s estimate will be greater than the actual product, and Amaya’s estimate will be less than the actual product.
Answer:
Amaya's estimate is the closer one.
D. Katie’s estimate will be greater than the actual product, and Amaya’s estimate will be less than the actual product
Step-by-step explanation:
The original expression is 89.1 x 9.3. Katie changed the 89.1 to 99 (difference of 9.9) and the 9.3 to 10 (difference of 0.7). On the other hand, Amaya changed the 89.1 to 89 (0.1 difference) and the 9.3 to 9 (0.3 difference).
Therefore the best comparison would be Amaya's estimate since her numbers are closer to the original expression.
Katie's estimate will be greater than the actual product because she rounded up the numbers and Amaya's estimate will be less than the actual product because she rounded down the numbers.
Choice D), since Katie went way over the decimals, and Amaya went slightly under to the closest number
