To find the area of a trapezoid, you have to a+b divided by 2 times h.

So you would take 11+5 and get 16 divided by 2 which is 8. then multiply that by h which in your case is 6. So the area is 48

Hope this was helpful.

A manufacturer wants to make open tin boxes from pieces of tin with dimensions 8 in. by 15 in. by cutting equal squares from the

Stells [14]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{3}$ in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the side of square.

Length of box=8-2x

Width of box=15-2x

Height of box=x

Volume of box= $L\times B\times H$

Substitute the values then we get

Volume of box=V(x)= $(8-2x)(15-2x)x=(15x-2x^2)(8-2x)$

$V(x)=120x-30x^2-16x^2+4x^3$

$V(x)=4x^3-46x^2+120x$

Differentiate w.r.t x

$V'(x)=12x^2-92x+120$

$V'(x)=0$

$12x^2-92x+120=0$

$3x^2-23x+30=0$

$3x^2-18x-5x+30=0$

$3x(x-6)-5(x-6)=0$

$(x-6)(3x-5)=0$

$x-6=0\implies x=6$

$3x-5=0\implies x=\frac{5}{3}$

Again differentiate w.r.t x

$V''(x)=24x-92$

Substitute x=6

$V''(6)=24(6)-92=52>0$

Substitute x=5/3

$V''(5/3)=24(5/3)-92=-52$

Hence, the volume is maximum at x= $\frac{5}{3}$

Therefore, the side of the square , $x=\frac{5}{3}$ in cutout that gives the box the largest possible volume.

Can someone please help me with this exercise? I'm having problems with point B.

Margaret [11]

Step-by-step explanation:

After you find the sums for each set, make a list, counting the number of ways a sum can occur.

You'll notice that for Set A, sums of 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 all appear 4 times. So they have equal probabilities. In Set B, a sum of 7 appears 6 times. Sums smaller or larger than 7 are less common.

When we look at the data, we see that were more sums of 7 than any other sum. So this data was probably from Set B.
