Surface area of box=1200 cm² 
<span>Volume of box=s²h </span>
<span>s = side of square base </span>
<span>h = height of box </span>
<span>S.A. = s² + 4sh </span>
<span>S.A. = surface area or 1200 cm², s²
 = the square base, and 4sh = the four 'walls' of the box. </span>
<span>1200 = s² + 4sh </span>
<span>1200 - s² = 4sh </span>
<span>(1200 - s²)/(4s) = h </span>


<span>v(s) = s²((1200 - s²)/(4s)) </span>
<span>v(s) = s(1200 - s²)/4 . </span>
<span>v(s) = 300s - (1/4)s^3</span>

by derivating
<span>v'(s) = 300 - (3/4)s² </span>
<span>0 = 300 - (3/4)s² </span>
<span>-300 = (-3/4)s² </span>
<span>400 = s² </span>
<span>s = -20 and 20. </span>
again derivating
<span>v"(s) = -(3/2)s </span>
<span>v"(-20) = -(3/2)(-20) </span>
<span>v"(-20) = 30 </span>
<span>v"(20) = -(3/2)(20) </span>
<span>v"(20) = -30 </span>


<span>v(s) = 300s - (1/4)s^3 </span>
<span>v(s) = 300(20) - (1/4)(20)^3 </span>
<span>v(s) = 6000 - (1/4)(8000) </span>
<span>v = 6000 - 2000 
v=4000</span>

A bag contains 20 slips of paper Individually numbered. If a slip of paper and a letter in the word PENNSYLVANIA is chosen at ra
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

P(M4\ n\ V) = 2.083\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Paper = 20 slips

Word: PENNSYLVANIA

Required

Determine P(Multiple of 4 and V)

The sample size of the 20 slips is:

n(S) = 20

The outcomes of multiples of 4 is:

M4= \{4,8,12,16,20\}

n(M4) = 5

So, the probability of multiples of 4 is:

Pr(M4) = \frac{5}{20}

Pr(M4) = \frac{1}{4}

The sample size of PENNSYLVANIA is:

n(S) = 12

The outcome of V is:

n(V) = 1

So, the probability of V is:

P(V) = \frac{1}{12}

So, the required probability is: P(Multiple of 4 and V)

P(M4\ n\ V) = P(M4) * P(V)

P(M4\ n\ V) = \frac{1}{4} * \frac{1}{12}

P(M4\ n\ V) = \frac{1}{48}

P(M4\ n\ V) = 0.02083

Express as percentage

P(M4\ n\ V) = 0.02083 * 100\%

P(M4\ n\ V) = 2.083\%

-12x + 18y = 21<br>(6x -9 = -9​
Leokris [45]

Answer:

x = 0 , y = 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x - 9 = -9

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x - 9 = -9

Add 9 to both sides:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x = 0

Divide both sides by 6:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the first equation:

{18 y = 21

x = 0

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{18 y = 21

x = 0

Divide both sides by 18:

{y = 7/6

x = 0

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer: {x = 0 , y = 7/6

The proportion of the total area under a normal curve between two z-scores corresponds to the ______ of that range of scores.
omeli [17]

Answer:

For any normal distribution, the mean and the median will have the same value. For any normal distribution, the proportion corresponding to scores greater than z = +1.00 is exactly equal to the proportion corresponding to scores less than z = -1.00.

Mean is when you take all the numbers and add them together and divide by the amount of numbers there

Example: Find the mean of :3,4,6,7

So you a 3+4+6+7=20 divide that by 4(because there you added 4 numbers) and that equals 5
