Jonas has 1728 copies of a 1 × 1 × 1 cube with the net shown, where c is a positive integer and c < 100. Using
these 1728 cubes, Jonas builds a large 12×12×12 cube in
such a way that the sum of the numbers on the exterior
faces is as large as possible. For some values of c, the sum
of the numbers on the exterior faces is between 80 000 and
85 000. The number of such values of c is
(A) 39 (B) 38 (C) 37
(D) 36 (E) 35

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.

c: y > - 1/6x + 1

step-by-step explanation:

dashed line - meaning this < or > also not equal

solid line - meaning this < or > also equal

your answer is c because y > means up & it's shaded up, but y < means down

hope this ! : )
