The cost of packing a box of chocolates is given by x2, where x is the number of chocolates (a box can never have fewer than 3 chocolates). if the weight of a box of chocolates is given by x + 2, what is the cost of packaging per weight unit?

Ответ:
Cost of packaging, C = x^2
Weight of a box, W = x+2
Cost per weight unit is
C/W = x^2/(x+2)
Note that x >= 3
Create a table as shown below.
x C/W
3 1.80
4 2.67
5 3.57
6 4.50
7 5.44
The minimum cost of packaging per unit is 1.80 for 3 chocolates. The cost increases as the number of chocolates in a box increases.
Ответ:
Because this is an equiangular triangle, we can set any two sides equal to each-other to solve for x, because all sides are the same length.
5x - 22 = 4x - 10
Subtract 4x from both sides.
x - 22 = -10
Add 22 to both sides.
x = 12
The value of x is equal to 12.
