Answer:

Dimensions: 1.68 ft × 3.36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the radius

Arc length = 3.14x

Width = 2x

Height = [12 - (2x) - 3.14x]/2

= 6 - 2.57x

Area = 3.14x²/2 + 2x(6 - 2.57x)

Area = 12x - 3.57x²

dA/dx = 12 - 7.14x = 0

x = 1.6806722689

Width = 2x

= 3.361344538

Height = 6 - 2.57x

= 1.6806722689

Answer:

Side lengths = 1.68 ft and width = 3.36 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side lengths of the window be L and the width = 2r ( r is also the radius of the semi-circle).

So we have

Perimeter = 2L + 2r + πr = 12

Area = 2rL + 0.5πr^2

From the first equation

2L = 12 - 2r - πr

Substitute for 2L in the equation for the area:

A = r(12 - 2r -  πr) + 0.5πr^2

A = 12r - 2r^2 -  πr^2 + 0.5πr^2

A =  12r - 2r^2 - 0.5πr^2

We need to find  r for the maximum area:

Finding the derivative and equating to zero:

A' = 12 - 4r -  πr = 0=

4r + πr = 12

r = 12 / ( 4 +  π)

r = 1.68 ft.

So the  width of the window = 2 * 1.68 = 3.36 ft.

Now  2L = 12 - 2r - πr

=  12 - 2*1.68 - 1.68π

= 3.36

L = 1.68.

Answer:

1. $0.24

2. 89.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the unit price, divide the total price by the amount that was purchased.

1. 3.12/13 = $0.24

For the second one, get the distance traveled per hour first then multiply by 8.

22.3 / 2 = 11.15

11.15 x 8 = 89.2

Anarel [89]

Answer:

a) There is suggestive evidence the velvet leaf seed is successful at weed control.

b) Lower bound: 3.699 Upper bound: 6.629

c) Since the confidence interval contains the average percent of seeds to be infected by the beetle (5.164), so we fail to reject the null hypothesis at the specified level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached picture.
