$xy=18\\
\dfrac{x}{y}=2\\\\
xy=18\\
x=2y\\\\
2y\cdot y=18\\
2y^2=18\\
y^2=9\\
y=-3 \vee y=3\\\\
x=2\cdot (-3) \vee x=2\cdot 3\\
x=-6 \vee x=6\\\\
\boxed{(x,y)=\{(-6,-3),(6,3)\}}$

A rectangular package sent by a postal service can have a maximum combined length and girth (perimeter of a cross sectio) of 108

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The maximum volume of the package is obtained with a cross section of side 18 inches and a length of 36 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a optimization with restrictions problem.

The restriction is that the perimeter of the square cross section plus the length is equal to 108 inches (as we will maximize the volume, we wil use the maximum of length and cross section perimeter).

This restriction can be expressed as:

$4x+L=108$

being x: the side of the square of the cross section and L: length of the package.

The volume, that we want to maximize, is:

$V=x^2L$

If we express L in function of x using the restriction equation, we get:

$4x+L=108\\\\L=108-4x$

We replace L in the volume formula and we get

$V=x^2L=x^2*(108-4x)=-4x^3+108x^2$

To maximize the volume we derive and equal to 0

$\dfrac{dV}{dx}=-4*3x^2+108*2x=0\\\\\\-12x^2+216x=0\\\\-12x+216=0\\\\12x=216\\\\x=216/12=18$

We can replace x to calculate L:

$L=108-4x=108-4*18=108-72=36$

The maximum volume of the package is obtained with a cross section of side 18 inches and a length of 36 inches.

Hello,

14/25 = x/275

25 => 275

The following data pairs represent the average temperature x (in degrees Fahrenheit) and electricity

elena55 [62]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is C. r = 0 because is most likely the closest to the correlation coefficient of the data.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Excel, we captured the data provided for the 12 different homes for calculating the correlation coefficient manually, this way:

n = 12

∑x = 904

∑y = 2,169

∑xy = 167,532

∑x² = 69,552

∑y² = 404,615

r = [n *∑xy - (∑x * ∑y)]/[√(n * ∑x² - (∑x)²) * (n * ∑y² - (∑y)²)]

Replacing with the real values, we have:

r = [12 * 167,532 - (904 * 2,169)]/[√(12 * 69,552 - 904²) * (12 * 404,615 - 2,169²)]

r = [2'010,384 -1'960,776]/[√(834,624 - 817,216) * (4'855,380 - 4'704,561]

r = 49,608/√17,408 * 150,819

r = 49,608/ 51'239.215

r = 0.00097

<u>The correct answer is C. r = 0 because is most likely the closest to the correlation coefficient of the data.</u>
