Answer: 2 inch dimension will give smallest increase.


Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 3 in

width = 2 in

height = 6 in

Extra cardboard  means to find surface area

on doubling the length

length = 6 In

width = 2 In

Height = 6In

Surface area for the above dimensions = 2 [ 6x2+2x6+6x6] = 120 sq in

On doubling the width

length = 3 in

width = 4 in

Height = 6 inch

Surface area for the above dimensions= 2 [ 3x4+4x6+6x3] = 2[54] = 108 sq inches

On doubling height

Length =3 in

width = 2 in

Height = 12 in

Surface area for above dimensions = 2 [ 3x2+2x12+12x3] = 2[6+24+36] = 132 sq inch

On doubling width surface area is minimum.

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You need to construct a 95% CI for the population mean of the length of engineering conferences.

The variable has a normal distribution.

The information given is:

n= 84

x[bar]= 3.94

δ= 1.28

The formula for the Confidence interval is:

x[bar]±Z_{1-\alpha/2}*(δ/n)

Lower bound(Lb): 3.698

Upper bound(Ub): 4.182

Error bound: (Ub - Lb)/2 = (4.182-3.698)/2 = 0.242

I hope it helps!

One number exceeds another by 15. the sum of the numbers is 69. what are the numbers
alex41 [277]

Hey there!!

Let us take the first number as ' x '

According to the question

The second number exceeds the first number by 15

hence, the second number = x+15

The sum of both the numbers = 69

which means

x + x + 15 = 69

2x+15 = 69

Subtracting by 15 on both sides

2x + 15 - 15 = 69 - 15

2x = 54

dividing by  2 on both sides

x = 27

first number = 27

second number = 27 + 15

= 42

Hope my answer helps!
