A polynominal function that describes an enclosure is v(x)=1500x-x2 where x is the length of the fence in feet what is the maximum area of the enclosure

Solution:

The maximum area of the enclosure is gotten when the differential with respect to x of the enclosure function is equal to zero. That is:

V'(x) = 0

V(x) = x(1500 - x) = length * breadth.

This means the enclosure has a length of x and a width of 1500 - x

Given that:

v(x)=1500x-x². Hence:

V'(x) = 1500 -2x

V'(x) = 0

1500 -2x = 0

2x = 1500

x = 1500 / 2

x = 750 feet

The maximum area = 1500(750) - 750² = 562500

The maximum area = 562500 feet²

An apartment complex rents an average of 2.3 new units per week. If the number of apartment rented each week Poisson distributed

masya89 [10]

Answer:

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Poisson Distribution;

Average rent in a week = 2.3

Required

Determine the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment

A Poisson distribution is given as;

$P(X = x) = \frac{y^xe^{-y}}{x!}$

Where y represents λ (average)

y = 2.3

Probability of renting no more than 1 apartment = Probability of renting no apartment + Probability of renting 1 apartment

Using probability notations;

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

Solving for P(X = 0) [substitute 0 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 0) = \frac{2.3^0 * e^{-2.3}}{0!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{1 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 0) = e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 0) = 0.10025884372$

Solving for P(X = 1) [substitute 1 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3^1 * e^{-2.3}}{1!}$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 1) =2.3 * e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 1) = 2.3 * 0.10025884372$

$P(X = 1) = 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.10025884372 + 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.33085418427$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Hence, the required probability is 0.331

A poll asks shoppers at the mall how many cups of water they typically drink in a day. The results of the poll are listed below.

castortr0y [4]

First you find the median, the middle term (if there are an even number of terms it is the average of the middle two terms.) Since you have 21 terms, odd, you just use the middle term, in this case 8. The first quartile works the same way, but just on the left half between the start and the median...so the first quartile is 6.
