probability of one go on vacation and one does not go on vacation is 0.2356 and probability none of them go on vacation is 0.1444

According to a survey, 62% of americans go on vacation each .

two americans are chosen from a group of 100 americans.

what is the probability that one or both of the people chosen does not go on vacation each ?

62% americans go on vacation t

hen 38% americans does not go on vacation

Total group of americans is 100

out of 100 americans 62 go on vacation and 38 does not go on vacation

probability of one go on vacation and one does not go on vacation

= 0.62*0.38

=0.2356

probability none of them go on vacation

= 0.38*0.38

=0.1444

The probability of picking two black marbles from a box at random without replacement is 10/91 .
sasho [114]
The probability of the 2 events are multiplied to get the result 10/91

so we have the relation 5/14 *  x  = 10/91

where x is the probability of drawing the second black

so x =  10/91 * 14/5 =  4/13   answer

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (-4,6) and (-8,-2)
umka2103 [35]
The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).

The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8.  The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2.  Now, we can plug these into our formula.

((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)

So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.

A box with a hinged lid is to be made out of a rectangular piece of cardboard that measures 3 centimeters by 5 centimeters. Six
kherson [118]

Answer:

x = 0.53 cm

Maximum volume = 1.75 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached diagram:

The volume of the box is given by

V = Length \times Width \times Height \\\\

Let x denote the length of the sides of the square as shown in the diagram.

The width of the shaded region is given by

Width = 3 - 2x \\\\

The length of the shaded region is given by

Length = \frac{1}{2} (5 - 3x) \\\\

So, the volume of the box becomes,

V =  \frac{1}{2} (5 - 3x) \times (3 - 2x) \times x \\\\V =  \frac{1}{2} (5 - 3x) \times (3x - 2x^2) \\\\V =  \frac{1}{2} (15x -10x^2 -9 x^2 + 6 x^3) \\\\V =  \frac{1}{2} (6x^3 -19x^2 + 15x) \\\\

In order to maximize the volume enclosed by the box, take the derivative of volume and set it to zero.

\frac{dV}{dx} = 0 \\\\\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx} ( \frac{1}{2} (6x^3 -19x^2 + 15x)) \\\\\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{1}{2} (18x^2 -38x + 15) \\\\\frac{dV}{dx} = \frac{1}{2} (18x^2 -38x + 15) \\\\0 = \frac{1}{2} (18x^2 -38x + 15) \\\\18x^2 -38x + 15 = 0 \\\\

We are left with a quadratic equation.

We may solve the quadratic equation using quadratic formula.

The quadratic formula is given by

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Where

a = 18 \\\\b = -38 \\\\c = 15 \\\\

x=\frac{-(-38)\pm\sqrt{(-38)^2-4(18)(15)}}{2(18)} \\\\x=\frac{38\pm\sqrt{(1444- 1080}}{36} \\\\x=\frac{38\pm\sqrt{(364}}{36} \\\\x=\frac{38\pm 19.078}{36} \\\\x=\frac{38 +  19.078}{36} \: or \: x=\frac{38 - 19.078}{36}\\\\x= 1.59 \: or \: x = 0.53 \\\\

Volume of the box at x= 1.59:

V =  \frac{1}{2} (5 – 3(1.59)) \times (3 - 2(1.59)) \times (1.59) \\\\V = -0.03 \: cm^3 \\\\

Volume of the box at x= 0.53:

V =  \frac{1}{2} (5 – 3(0.53)) \times (3 - 2(0.53)) \times (0.53) \\\\V = 1.75 \: cm^3

The volume of the box is maximized when x = 0.53 cm

Therefore,

x = 0.53 cm

Maximum volume = 1.75 cm³
