How to turn an improper fraction into a mixed number witgout remainder?

Simplify 6 to the negative 3rd power over 6 to the 5th

irina [24]

6^-3 / 6^5
= 6^(-3-5)
= 6^-8
= 1 / 6^8

hope it helps

What is the what is the answer

ElenaW [278]

The answer would be D. 18/6. We can figure this out because in the question, it says that each shape is worth one whole. There are three shapes so that means when added, the sum is 3 and 18/6, when reduced is 3.
I hope this helped! :-)

The base and sides of a container is made of wood panels. The container does not have a lid. The base and sides are rectangular.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Minimum surface area = $70.77 cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Width of container=x cm

Length of container=2x cm

Volume of container= $54 cm^3$

We have to find the minimum surface areas that this container will have.

Volume of container= $l\times b\times h$

$x\times 2x\times h=54$

$2x^2h=54$

$h=\frac{54}{2x^2}=\frac{27}{x^2}$

Surface area of container= $2(b+l)h+lb$

Because the container does not have lid

Surface area of container= $S=2(2x+x)\times \frac{27}{x^2}+2x\times x$

$S=\frac{162}{x}+2x^2$

Differentiate w.r.t x

$\frac{dS}{dx}=-\frac{162}{x^2}+4x$

$\frac{dx^n}{dx}=nx^{n-1}$

Substitute $\frac{dS}{dx}=0$

$-\frac{162}{x^2}+4x=0$

$4x=\frac{162}{x^2}$

$x^3=\frac{162}{4}=40.5$

$x^3=40.5$

$x=(40.5)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$x=3.4$

Again differentiate w.r.t x

$\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=\frac{324}{x^3}+4$

Substitute x=3.4

$\frac{d^2S}{dx^2}=\frac{324}{(3.4)^3}+4=12.24>0$

Hence, function is minimum at x=3.4

Substitute x=3.4

Then, we get

Minimum surface area = $\frac{162}{(3.4)}+2(3.4)^2=70.77 cm^2$

Elderly drivers. In January 2011, The Marist Poll published a report stating that 66% of adults nationally think licensed driver

katrin [286]

Answer:

(a) Hence, the margin of error reported by The Marist Poll was correct.

(b) Based on a 95% confidence interval the poll does not provide convincing evidence that more than 70% of the population think that licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they turn 65.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Marist Poll published a report stating that 66% of adults nationally think licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they reach 65 years of age.

It was also reported that interviews were conducted on 1,018 American adults, and that the margin of error was 3% using a 95% confidence level.

(a) Margin of error formula is given by;

Margin of Error = $Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

where, $\alpha$ = level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 or 5%

Standard of error = $\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

Also, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of adults nationally think licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they reach 65 years of age = 66%

n = sample of American adults = 1.018

The critical value of z for level of significance of 2.5% is 1.96.

So, Margin of Error = $Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }$

= $1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.66(1-0.66)}{1,018} }$ = 0.03 or 3%

Hence, the margin of error reported by The Marist Poll was correct.

(b) Now, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the population proportion who think that licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they turn 65 is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{ \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ~ N(0,1)

So, 95% confidence interval for p = $\hat p \pm \text{Margin of error}$

= $0.66 \pm 0.03$

= [0.66 - 0.03 , 0.66 + 0.03]

= [0.63 , 0.69]

Hence, based on a 95% confidence interval the poll does not provide convincing evidence that more than 70% of the population think that licensed drivers should be required to retake their road test once they turn 65 because the interval does not include the value of 70% or more.

Please help!!! right now

Ymorist [56]

To find the rate of change, we must find the unit rate, or the amount of savings added per month. To find this, we can divide the amount changed from month 4 to month 1 from the amount of months, resulting in (415-160)/3=85 as our rate of change. This means that every month, the amount of money in Brent's savings account adds by 85. Next, the initial value is the starting value, and that is how much money Brent has at month 0. After one month of saving, Brent has 160 dollars. However, he must have added 85 dollars from his starting amount to get 160 dollars after one month of saving. Therefore, 160-85=75 as our starting amount. This means that Brent started with 75 dollars in his account.

Feel free to ask further questions, and Happy Holidays!
