Answer:

A. For a lot of people, drinking beer causes a desire for ice cream, or vice versa.

Explanation:

We can conclude from the monthly sales that when a lot of people drink beer, a lot of people tends to take ice cream, and when less people take beer, less people tends to take ice cream, the fact shows that there is a correlation between the sales of beer and the sales of ice cream.

What is the maximum volume in cubic inches of an open box to be made from a 12-inch by 16-inch piece of cardboard by cutting out
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

If you start with a 12x16 rectangle and cut square with side length x, when you bend the sides you'll have an inner rectangle with sides 12-2x and 16-2x, and a height of x.

So, the volume will be given by the product of the dimensions, i.e.

(12-2x)(16-2x)x = 4x^3-56x^2+192x

The derivative of this function is

12x^2-112x+192

and it equals zero if and only if

12x^2-112x+192=0 \iff x = \dfrac{14\pm 2\sqrt{13}}{3}

If we evaluate the volume function at these points, we have

f\left(\dfrac{14-2\sqrt{13}}{3}\right) = \dfrac{64}{27}(35+13\sqrt{13})> f\left(\dfrac{14-2\sqrt{13}}{3}\right) = -\dfrac{64}{27}(13\sqrt{13}-35)

So, the maximum volume is given if you cut a square with side length

x=\dfrac{14-2\sqrt{13}}{3}\approx 2.7
