A Rectangular Sheet Of Cardboard 3 Feet By 5 Feet Will Be Made Into An Open Box By Cutting Equal-sized

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4[tex]x^{3}[/tex] - 16[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 15x

Step-by-step explanation:

length = 5 - 2x

width = 3 - 2x

heighth = x

x(5 - 2x)(3 - 2x)

x(15 -16x + 4[tex]x^{2}[/tex])

4[tex]x^{3}[/tex] - 16[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 15x

Answer 2

The largest volume of such a box is 4.345[tex]ft^{3}[/tex].

Given that,

A rectangular sheet of cardboard 3 feet by 5 feet will be made into an open box by cutting equal-sized squares from each corner and folding up the four edges.

The shaded region represents the area  that was cut from the corners of the box.

We have to determine,

The largest volume of such a box.

According to the question,

The height will be  x

The width will be  (3 − 2 x)

And the length will be ( 5− 2 x)

.

The formula for volume will be,

[tex]Volume = Length \times Height \times Width\\\\[/tex]

Substitute the values in the formula,

[tex]Volume = x(3-2x).(5-2x)\\\\Volume = (3x-6x^{2}).(5-2x)\\\\Volume = 3x(5-2x) - 6x^{2}(5-2x)\\\\Volume = 15x - 6x^{2} - 30x^{2} + 12x^{3}\\\\Volume = 12x^{3} -36x^{2} + 15x[/tex]

 Then,

To Find the derivative of the equation,

[tex]V = 12x^{3} -36x^{2} + 15x\\\\Differentiate\ with\ respect\ to\ x\ both\ sides,\\\\\dfrac{dv}{dx} = \dfrac{d(12x^{3} -36x^{2} + 15x)}{dx}\\\\V' = 36x^{2} - 72x+15[/tex]

The critical numbers by seeing where  V '  =  0,

[tex]= 36x^{2} -72x +15\\\\= 3 ( 12x^{2} - 24x +5 )\\[/tex]

By using the quadratic formula or your calculator to solve for  

x = 0.23, and 1.6

x = 1.6 is not in the domain since that would make one of our side lengths less than zero.  x  =  0.23

Plug x back into the equations to get the dimensions,

[tex]3-2x = 3- 2 \times -0.23 = 3+0.46 = 3.46\\5-2x = 5 - 2 \times -0.23 = 5+0.46 = 5.46[/tex]

Therefore, the dimension are  0.23 ft x 3.46 ft x  5.46 ft.

Hence, The largest volume of such a box is 4.345[tex]ft^{3}[/tex].

Answers

Answer: x=6

Explanation:

Get x by itself therefore subtract 6 from both sides
24 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4
6=x

Hope this helps ;)

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

30=6+4x

you have to combine the number that are the same, like 2 and 4 or 3x and 4x

30-6=4x (you should always remember when you move a number if it was - it will turn +)

30-6=4x

24=4x

x=24/4

The set of life spans of an appliance is normally distributed with a mean Mu = 48 months and a standard deviation Sigma = 8 months. What is the z-score of an appliance that stopped working at 64 months?

Group of answer choices

-2

-1

Answers

Answer:

D.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-score of an appliance that stopped working at 64 months is 2

What is z score?

Standard score or z score in statistics is defined as the number of standard deviations by which that the value of a score is above or below the mean value.

The formula to find the z score of a data is,

z = (x - μ) / σ

Here x is the observed value, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation.

Given that,

Mean = 48 months

Standard deviation = 8 months

x = 64 months

Substituting in the formula,

z = (64 - 48) / 8 = 2

Hence the z score of the appliance is 2.

11. One term, about 700 Statistics 2 students at the University of California, Berkeley, were asked how many college mathematics courses they had taken, other than Statistics 2. The average number of courses was about 1.1; the SD was about 1.5. Would the histogram for the data look like (i), (ii), or (iii)? Why?

Answers

Answer:

(i)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the mean value of the distribution is 1.1, then we can safely assume that the peak value will be reside around one with a variability measure, standard (1.5) represents changes in distribution away from the mean value. The could be to either side of the distribution. However, the cannot be a negative value for the number of courses taken, hence, the maximum value we can have to the left is 0. (figures to the far left of the distribution are negative). This means that the curve will fall towards the right, (positive direction hence giving a right skewed distribution.

Look at the Example. How do you know that (-3/4)(-8a)+(-3/4)(-12) is equivalent to both -3/4(-8a-12) and 6a+9?
PLEASE HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem [tex]-\frac{3}{4} (-8a-12)[/tex]

we first use the distributive property, which means to multiply everything on the inside with the outside number on the left.

so [tex]-\frac{3}{4} * -8a, -\frac{3}{4} *-12[/tex]

This would equal

[tex]6a+9[/tex]

its pretty simple.

what may be confusing is the fraciton multiplication

to solve this we convert the -8 and -12 into a fraction. This would be

[tex]-\frac{8}{1} and-\frac{12}{1}[/tex]

and multiplying fractions is easy, u just do it straight across.

so 3 times 8 is 24 so this would be 24/4

and 24/4 simplified is 6

and 3 times 12 is 36

so it would be 36/4

this would equal 9 simplified

and since we are just multiplying all negative numbers here they all turn out to be positive numbers because you should know.  a negative times a negative equals a positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the value of absolute deviation in case of Trail Middle School wrestling team and Burlington Middle School  wrestling team is same. Hence, there will be no impact of it while determining the difference in mean deviation of both the team.

Thus, the difference in mean deviation is [tex]150-130 = 20[/tex]
