4x=36

x=9

each shrub cost $9.00

Each shrub would cost $9.
x=(53.50-17.50)/4
Hope I help!!!

A magazine has 1,620,000 subscribers, of whom 640,000 are women and 980,000 are men. Thirty percent of the women read the advert

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Expected number of subscribers in the sample who read the advertisements=42

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Determine the proportion of both men and women subscribers as shown;

Proportion of Men subscribers=number of men subscribers/total number of subscribers

where;

number of men subscribers=980,000

total number of subscribers=number of men+number of women

total number of subscribers=(980,000+640,000)=1,620,000

replacing;

proportion of men subscribers=980,000/1,620,000=98/162

Step 2

Proportion of women subscribers=1-(98/162)=64/162

Step 3

Expected proportion of men that read the advertisement=(50/100)×(98/162)=4,900/16,200=49/162

Expected proportion of women that read the advertisement=(30/100)×(64/162)=1,920/16,200=192/1620

Step 4

Total number of proportion=(49/162)+(192/1620)=341/810

Expected number from the sample=(341/810)×100=42

Expected number of subscribers in the sample who read the advertisements=42

Based on the dimensions of the regular pentagon, the approximate area can be found to be 342 cm².

<h3>How to solve for approximate area?</h3>

The area of the pentagon can be found by the formula:

= 5 x 1/2 x Length of pentagon x apothem of pentagon

The apothem is:

= √(12² - (14.1/2)²)

= 9.7

The approximate area of the pentagon is therefore:

= 5 x 1/2 x 14.1 x 9.7

= 342 cm²

Zadanie optymalizacyjne z matematyki. Proszę o rozwiązanie i wyjaśnienie

Volume of the pyramid:

$V=\dfrac{s^2h}3$

Perimeter of the cross-section:

$40=\sqrt2\,s+2\sqrt{\dfrac{s^2}2+h^2}=\sqrt2\left(s+\sqrt{s^2+2h^2}\right)$

$\implies h=\sqrt{\dfrac{(20\sqrt2-s)^2-s^2}2}=\sqrt{400-20\sqrt2\,s}$

Area of the cross-section:

$P=\dfrac12(\sqrt2\,s)h=\dfrac{sh}{\sqrt2}$

$\implies P=\dfrac{s\sqrt{400-20\sqrt2\,s}}{\sqrt2}=s\sqrt{200-10\sqrt2\,s}$

First derivative test:

$\dfrac{\mathrm dP}{\mathrm ds}=\dfrac{20\sqrt2-3s}{\sqrt{4-\dfrac{\sqrt2}5s}}=0\implies s=\dfrac{20\sqrt2}3$

Then the height of the cross-section/pyramid is

$h=\sqrt{400-20\sqrt2\,s}=\dfrac{20}{\sqrt3}$

The volume of the pyramid that maximizes the cross-sectional area $P$ is

$V=\dfrac{\left(\frac{20\sqrt2}3\right)^2\frac{20}{\sqrt3}}3=\dfrac{16000}{27\sqrt3}$
