Answer: 21 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the height of the box.
Then the 5 ft width of cardboard is (5 - 2x) when creating the box
and the 9 ft length of cardboard is (9 - 2x) when creating the box.
Volume = length x width x height
= (9 - 2x)(5 - 2x)(x)
= 45x - 28x² + 4x³
Using Calculus to solve for x, set the derivative equal to zero and use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
V' = 45 - 56x + 12x²
0 = 12x² - 56x + 45
x = 3.6, x = 1.0
Use those values to find the width, length, and volume:
height(x) × width (5 - 2x) × length (9 - 2x) = Volume
3.63 × -2.26*
1 × 3 × 7 = 21
*width cannot be negative so the height cannot be 3.63
If x-2y=10 and y is three times the value of x, What is the value of x-y? a) -8 b) -4 c) 0 d) 2 e)4
Answer:
a) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x
Plug it in: x - 2 (3x) = 10 --> x - 6x = 10 --> -5x = 10 --> x = -2
Therefore: y = 3(-2) --> y = -6
x - y = -2 - (-6) = 4
Consider this quote: "In a recent survey, 65 out of 100 consumers reported that they preferred plastic bags instead of paper bags for their groceries. If there is no difference in the proportions who prefer each type in the population, the chance of such extreme results in a sample of this size is about .03. Because .03 is less than .05, we can conclude that there is a statistically significant difference in preference." Give a numerical value for each of the following.
a. The p-value.
b. The level of significance, α.
c. The sample proportion.
d. The sample size.
e. The null value.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The p value (probability of obtaining results as extreme the z score if null is true) is usually the value derived to make a conclusion and in this case the p value is 0.03
The level of significance is the value usually compared with the p value which is 0.05
The sample promotion is 65 out of 100 = 65/100 = 0.65
The sample size is the total number of consumers which is 100
The null value is usually the default value. The null value would assume that there is no difference in the proportions who prefer each type in the population. There are two preferences: 100/2 = 50- 0.5 for each preference.

An article contained the following observations on degree of polymerization for paper specimens for which viscosity times concentration fell in a certain middle range:
418 421 422 422 425 429 431 434 437
439 446 447 449 452 457 461 465
Calculate a two-sided 95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization is (431, 446).
Step-by-step explanation:
The data provided for the degree of polymerization for paper specimens for which viscosity times concentration fell in a certain middle range is:
S = {418, 421, 422, 422, 425, 429, 431, 434, 437, 439, 446, 447, 449, 452, 457, 461, 465}
Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation:
[tex]\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum X=\frac{1}{7}\times 7455=438.5294\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (X-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{17-1}\times 3594.2353}=14.988[/tex]
As the population standard deviation is not provided use the t-statistic to compute the two-sided 95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization.
[tex]CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\cdot\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
The critical value of the t is:
[tex]t_{\alpha /2, (n-1)}=t_{0.05/2, (17-1)}=t_{0.025, 16}=2.12[/tex]
*Use a t-table.
Compute the 95% confidence interval for true average as follows:
[tex]CI=438.5294\pm 2.12\cdot\frac{14.988}{\sqrt{17}}[/tex]
[tex]=438.5294\pm 7.7065\\=(430.8229, 446.2359)\\\approx (431, 446)[/tex]
Thus, the 95% confidence interval for true average degree of polymerization is (431, 446).
A random sample of 144 observations produced a sample proportion of 0.4. An approximate 90% confidence interval for the population proportion p is between:_______
a) 0.320 and 0.480
b) 0.333 and 0.480
c) 0.333 and 0.467
d) 0.359 and 0.441
e) 0.313 and 0.487
Answer:
CI =(0.333, 0.480)
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the confidence interval is expressed as shown;
CI = p±Z * √p(1-p)/n±0.5/n
Z is the z-score at 90% confidence
p is the sample proportion
n is the sample size
Given n = 144, p = 0.4 and z-score at 90% CI = 1.645 (from z table)
Substituting this values;
CI = p ± 1.645*√0.4(1-0.4)/144 ±0.5/n
CI = 0.4 ± 1.645*√0.4(0.6)/144 ± 0.5/144
CI = 0.4 ±1.645 * √0.24/144 ± 0.00347
CI = 0.4 ±1.645 * 0.04087± 0.00347
CI = 0.4±0.06723±0.00347
CI =(0.333, 0.480)
Given that a function, g, has a domain of -20 ≤ x ≤ 5 and a range of -5 ≤ g(x) ≤ 45 and that g(0) = -2 and g(-9) = 6, select the statement that could be true for g. Please no random answers
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
A is corrects since -13 is in the the domain of g(x) and 20 is in the range of g(x):
-20 < -13 < 5-5 < 20 < 45B is also false since 4 is in the domain of g(x)) and -11 isn't in the range of g(x)
-20 < 4 < 5-11 < -5C is also false since it's mentioned that g(0) = -2
D is false since 7 isn't in the domain of g(x)

Answer:
Option (3). [tex]m(\widehat{ACB})=220[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Option (1).
Since measure of an inscribed angle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{measure of the intercepted arc})[/tex]
m∠ABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}m(\widehat{AC})[/tex]
[tex]m(\widehat{AC})[/tex] = 2(m∠ABC)
= 2(30°)
= 60°
Therefore, this option is not true.
Option (2),
Since, [tex]m(\widehat{AB})+m(\widehat{BC})+m(\widehat{AC})=360[/tex]
[tex]m(\widehat{AB})+160+60=360[/tex]
m(arc AB) = 360 - 220
= 140°
Therefore, this option is not correct.
Option (3),
[tex]m(\widehat{ACB})=m(\widehat{AC})+m(\widehat{BC})[/tex]
= 60° + 160°
= 220°
Option (3) is the correct option.
Option (4),
[tex]m(\widehat{CBA})= 360-m(\widehat{AC})[/tex]
= 360° - 60°
= 300°
Therefore, this option is not correct.
In 2015, the CDC analyzed whether American adults were eating enough fruits and vegetables. Let the mean cups of vegetables adults eat in a day be μ. If the CDC wanted to know if adults were eating, on average, more than the recommended 2 cups of vegetables a day, what are the null and alternative hypothesis? Select the correct answer below: H0: μ=2; Ha: μ>2 H0: μ>2; Ha: μ=2 H0: μ=2; Ha: μ<2 H0: μ=2; Ha: μ≠2
Answer:
H0: μ=2; Ha: μ>2
Step-by-step explanation:
The null hypothesis is the default hypothesis while the alternative hypothesis is the opposite of the null and is always tested against the null hypothesis.
In this case study, the null hypothesis is that adults were eating, on average, the recommended 2 cups of vegetables a day: H0: μ=2 while the alternative hypothesis is adults were eating, on average, more than the recommended 2 cups of vegetables a day Ha: μ>2.

Answer: A. [tex]x\geq21\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] .
Step-by-step explanation:
The given inequation: [tex]81-1\dfrac{1}{5}x\leq55[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow\ 81-\dfrac{6}{5}x\leq55[/tex]
Multiplying 5 on both the sides, we get
[tex]5(81-\dfrac{6}{5}x)\leq5\times55\\\\\Rightarrow\ 405-6x\leq275\\\\\Rightarrow\ 6x\geq405-275\\\\\Rightarrow\ 6x\geq130\\\\\Rightarrow\ x\geq\dfrac{130}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x\geq\dfrac{65}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x\geq21\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
Hence, the inequality for x is [tex]x\geq21\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] .
So, the correct option is A. [tex]x\geq21\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] ..

What is the y-intercept of the logistic growth model y = c ÷ (1 + ae^-rx)? Show the steps for calculation. What does this point tell us about the population?
Answer:
The answer is "[tex]y=\frac{c}{1+a}[/tex]".
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]\bold{y=\frac{c}{1+ae^{-rx}}}[/tex]
For the y-intercept, the value x is =0
[tex]y=\frac{c}{1+ae^{-r \times 0}}[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{c}{1+ae^{0}}[/tex]
[tex]\therefore e^0 = 1[/tex]

Answer: 0.0899.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: CNNBC recently reported that the mean annual cost of auto insurance is 1048 dollars, the standard deviation is 282 dollars.
Sample size : n= 55
Let [tex]\overline{X}[/tex] be the sample mean.
The probability that a sample of size n =55 is randomly selected with a mean less than 997 dollars:
[tex]P(\overline{X}<997)=P(\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\dfrac{997-1048}{\dfrac{282}{\sqrt{55}}})[/tex]
[tex]=P(Z<-1.3412)\ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}]\\\\=1-P(Z<1.3412)\\\\=1-0.9101\ \ \ \ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\ =0.0899[/tex]
Hence, the required probability = 0.0899 .
If one termite can destroy 1.2mg of wood per day, how many kilograms of wood can 10 termites destroy in 1 week? *Can someone please explain how to do this*
Answer:
10 termites will destroy 0.000084kg of wood per week
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert milligram to kilogram
1.2mg=(1.2 / 1,000,000)kg
1.2mg=0.0000012kg
1 termite destroys=0.0000012kg per day
10 termites will destroy (per day) =0.0000012×10 termites per day
10 termites in one day will destroy=0.000012kg
There are 7 days in a week
Therefore,
10 termites will destroy=destruction per day × 7 days
=0.000012×7
=0.000084kg per week
A process on a machine has a standard deviation of 0.04 inches. If a product with specifications of +/- 0.07 inches has to be processed on that machine, is the machine capable of performing that job? Group of answer choices
Answer:
c.) No, because Cp < 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that there is centered in the process
and, the width is 2 times the specification
So, the width is
[tex]= 2 \times 0.07[/tex]
= 0.14
Now capability index = Cp is
[tex]= \frac{specification\ width}{6 \times standard\ deviation}\\\\= \frac{0.14}{6\times 0.04}[/tex]
= 0.58333
And the capability index should be minimum 1 for the process
And as we can see that Cp is 0.58333 which is less than 1 so the machine is not able to perform the job
Hene, the correct option is c.

Write each equation in slope-intercept form (if not in that form). Determine the slope and identify the value where the y-axis intersects. Use these two values to graph the linear equation.
1. y= -x+2
2. 5x+15y=30
3. -50x+20y=40
4. f(x)=-2x+1
5. h(x) = -3/4x+2
Answer:
1. slope = -x, Y-intercept = 2
2. slope = -1/3,Y-intercept = 2
3. slope = 5/2, Y-intercept = 2
4. slope = -2, Y-intercept = 1
5. slope = -3/4, Y-intercept = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope and y-intercept you have to solve the equation. You only have to solve for 2 and 3. 1, 4, and 5 already have the equations solved. For questions 1, 4, and 5 the first number is the slope and the second number is the y-intercept. For questions 2 and 5 you have to solve the equations. You have to bring the y to the right side of the equation. to do that you subtract the y. Then you have to bring the number that was already on the right side of the equation to the left side. To do this you also have to subtract that number to bring it to the other side. Now you have to get the y by its self, and to do this you divide the equation. You divide both sides of the equation. Then you can get the slope and y-intercept.

(x − 4)(x + 3)
(x − 2)(x + 6)
(x + 2)(x − 6)
Answer:
(x + 2)(x - 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation: x² - 4x - 12. Let's factor this.
First, look at the integer factor pairs of -12:
-1, 12
-2, 6
-3, 4
1, -12
2, -6
3, -4
We would like to find a pair whose sum is -4. Inspecting each pair, we realise that only the pair 2, -6 works because 2 + (-6) = -4.
Thus, our factors are:
x + 2 (from the 2)
x - 6 (from the -6)
The factored form of our given quadratic is:
(x + 2)(x - 6)

Paul is saving for a down payment to buy a house. The account earns 13% interest compound quarterly, and he wants to have $15,000 in 4 years. What must his principal be? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round at any point in solving process; only round your answer. Please help ASAP!! Thank you so much!
Answer:
The principal must be = $8991.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for compound interest is:
[tex]A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]
Where A is the amount after 't' years.
P is the principal amount
n is the number of times interest is compounded each year.
r is the rate of interest.
Here, we are given that:
Amount, A = $15000
Rate of interest = 13 % compounded quarterly i.e. 4 times every year
Number of times, interest is compounded each year, n = 4
Time, t = 4 years.
To find, Principal P = ?
Putting all the given values in the formula to find P.
[tex]15000 = P(1 + \frac{13}{400})^{4\times 4}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1 + 0.0325)^{16}\\\Rightarrow 15000 = P(1.0325)^{16} \\\Rightarrow 15000 = P \times 1.66817253\\\Rightarrow P = \dfrac{15000}{1.66817253}\\\Rightarrow P \approx \$8991.88[/tex]
So, the principal must be = $8991.88
The principal required is $ 8993.
Using the formula;
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where;
P = principal = ?
r = rate = 0.13
n = Number of times the interest is compounded = 4
t = time = 4years
Amount = $15,000
15,000 = P(1 + 0.13/4)^4(4)
15,000 = P(1.668)
P = 15,000/1.668
P =$ 8993
