A box with an open top is to be constructed from a square piece ofcardboard, with sides 6 meters in length, by cutting a square from each of the fourcorners and bending up the sides. Find the dimensions that maximize the volume ofthe box and the maximum volume.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the height of the box . x will be cut at four corners .

each side of the box = 6 - 2x

volume of box V = ( 6 - 2 x )² x

V = ( 36 + 4 x² - 24 x ) x

V = 4x³ - 24 x ² + 36 x

For maximum volume

dV / dx = 12 x² - 48 x + 36 = 0

x² - 4 x + 3 = 0

( x - 3 ) ( x - 1 ) = 0

x = 1 , x = 3 ( not possible )

Possible solution x = 1

Volume  , for x = 1

V = V = ( 6 - 2 x )² x

V = 4² x 1

= 16 m³.

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to answer this, we will need to make a reference to the sum and product formula.

What we have in the question is the product and we want to see if the sum correlates.

Using the sum formula, we have the value on the right hand side as;

(1/2)[sin(x+y)+sin(x-y)]

Seeing that the expression we have here is not equal to that which was given, we can conclude that the answer is false

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be that missing number

One third of it is x/3

One-ninth of it is x/9

Multiply x/3 and x/9

● (x/3)*(x/9) = (x^2/27)

● (x^2/27) = 108

Multiply both sides by 27

● (x^2/27)*27 = 108*27

● x^2 = 2916

● x = √(2,916) or x = -√(2,916)

● x = 54 or x = -54

So there are two possibilities 54 and -54.

a1/3×1/9=!08

if you multiply you should get 1/27a=108

in order to let a alone multiply both sides by 27

and now your a which is unknown will equal 2916.

What is the exact solution to the system of equations shown on the graph?

Answers

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two lines on the graph representing the system of equations.

First line passes through two points (-3, 1) and (-2, 3).

Slope of the line = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

                           = [tex]\frac{3-1}{-2+3}[/tex]

                       m = 2

Equation of the line passing through (x', y') and slope = m is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Equation of the line passing through (-3, 1) and slope = 2 will be,

y - 1 = 2(x + 3)

y = 2x + 7 ----------(1)

Second line passes through (0, 1) and (-1, 4) and y-intercept 'b' of the line is 1.

Let the equation of this line is,

y = mx + b

Slope 'm' = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

               = [tex]\frac{4-1}{-1-0}[/tex]

               = -3

Here 'b' = 1

Therefore, equation of the line will be,

y = -3x + 1 ---------(2)

From equation (1) and (2),

2x + 7 = -3x + 1

5x = -6

x = [tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

x = [tex]-1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

From equation (1),

y = 2x + 7

y = [tex]-\frac{12}{5}+7[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{-12+35}{5}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{23}{5}[/tex]

  = [tex]4\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Therefore, exact solution of the system of equations is [tex](-1\frac{1}{5},4\frac{3}{5})[/tex].

Option (B) will be the answer.

Jina received a $70 gift cards for a coffee store. She used it in buying some coffee that cost $8.64 per pound. After buying the coffee, she had $26.80 left on her card. How many pounds of coffee did she buy?

Answers

Answer:

If I'm correct she bought 5 pounds of coffee.

Step-by-step explanation:

$70 (gift card)

-$26.80 (remainder on g.c.)

= $43.20 ($ spent on money)

$43.20/ $8.64 = 5

(remainder)/ cost per lb. = lbs of coffee bought

Answer: She bought 5 pounds of coffee

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation can be represent by the equation

70 - 8.64 x = 26.80  where x is the number of coffee she bought.   solve for x

-70                   -70

-8.64x = -43.20

A random sample of 100 students yielded an average increase of 415% with a standard deviation of 220%.

Answers

Answer:

C.I = (371.88  , 458.12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

sample size n = 100

sample mean [tex]\overline x =[/tex] 415

standard deviation = 220

The objective is to calculate the  95% confidence interval for the average increase in number of words students who can read in a minute without losing comprehension.

At 95% confidence interval; level of significance ∝ = 1 - 0.95

level of significance ∝ = 0.05

[tex]z_{\alpha/2} = 0.05/2[/tex]

[tex]z_{\alpha/2} = 0.025[/tex]

The critical value at [tex]z_{\alpha/2} = 0.025[/tex] is 1.96

C.I = [tex]\overline x \pm M.O,E[/tex]

C.I = [tex]\overline x \pm z_{\alpha/2} \dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

C.I = [tex]415\pm 1.96 \dfrac{220 }{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]

C.I = [tex]415\pm 1.96 *\dfrac{220 }{10}[/tex]

C.I = [tex]415\pm 1.96 *22[/tex]

C.I = [tex]415\pm 43.12[/tex]

A sample of college students was asked how they felt about their weight. Of the 143 women in the sample who responded, 38 women said that they felt overweight, 99 felt that their weight was about right, and 6 felt that they were underweight. Of the 78 men in the sample, 18 men felt that they were overweight, 35 felt that their weight was about right, and 25 felt that they were underweight (Data source: pennstate3 dataset on the companion website).

a. In the relationship between feelings about weight and sex, which variable is the explanatory variable and which is the response variable?

b. Summarize the observed counts by creating a table similar to Tables 2.2 and 2.3 (p. 21).

c. For the 143 women, find the percentage responding in each category for how they felt about their weight.

d. For the 78 men, find the percentage responding in each category for how they felt about their weight.

e. Using the percentages found in parts (c) and (d), summarize how the women and men differed in how they felt about their weight.

Answers

Answer:

a.  Feelings about weight is the response (dependent) variable.  Sex is the explanatory (independent) variable.  The feelings about weight depend on the sex

b. Summary of  observed counts

                         Women   Men   Total

Overweight        38           18       56

Right weight      99          35      134

Underweight       6          25        31

Number           143           78      221

c. Percentage of the 143 women responding in each category:

1. Overweight = 38/143 = 26.6%

2. Right weight = 99/143 = 69.2%

3. Underweight = 6/143 = 4.2%

d. Percentage of the 78 men responding in each category:

1. Overweight = 18/78 = 23.1%

2. Right weight = 35/78 = 44.9%

3. Underweight = 25/78 = 32%

e. Summary of feelings about weight:

                         Women        Men

Overweight        26.6%        23.1%

Right weight      69.2%        44.9%

Underweight       4.2%         32%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data:

Sample size = 221

                       Women    Men   Total

Overweight        38           18       56

Right weight      99          35      134

Underweight       6          25        31

Number            143           78      221

b) To obtain the percentage of feelings about weight for each category, the number of those who feel overweight, right weight, or underweight is divided by the total number of women or men.  The value obtained, which is in decimal form, is then converted to percentage by multiplying with 100.

Jill is standing at the base of her apartment building. She measures the angle of elevation to the top of a nearby tower to be 40º. Then Jill goes to the roof of her apartment building, directly above her previous position, and measures the angle of elevation to the top of the same tower to be 30°. If the height of the tower is 100 meters, the height of Jill's apartment building is meters.

Answers

Answer:

1) From the measure of 40°, you can write:

tan(40°) = 100/x, where x is the base from the building to the tower

⇒x=100/tan(40°) = 119,18 m

2) From the measure of 30°, you can write

tan(30°) = y / 119,18, where y is the height from the roof of Jill's building to the top of the tower.

Then, y = tan(30°) * 119,18 = 68,81 m

3) The height of Jill's building is 100 - 68,81 = 31,19 m

When the height of the tower is 100 meters, the height of Jill's apartment building is 31.19m

How to calculate the height?

Let the base from the building to the Rowe be represented by x. Based on the information given, the value will be:

x = 100/tan 40°

x = 119.18m

The height can be represented as:

= 100 - [tan30° × 119.18]

= 100 - 68.81

= 31.19m
