You have a wire that is 38 cm long. You wish to cut it into two pieces. One piece will be bent into the shape of a square. The o

ther piece will be bent into the shape of a circle. Let A represent the total area of the square and the circle. What is the circumference of the circle when A is a minimum?

Answer:16.71 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of wire L=38 cm

One piece is bent in the form of square and another in the form of circle

let x be the length of circle

therefore length of square side \frac{38-x}{4}

A=total area of square and circle

radius of circle r=\frac{x}{2\pi }

area of circle A_c=\pi r^2=\pi \times (\frac{x}{2\pi })^2

Area of square A_s=(\frac{38-x}{4})^2

A=\pi \times (\frac{x}{2\pi })^2+(\frac{38-x}{4})^2

To get the minimum value of A we get

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} x}=\frac{2x}{4\pi }-\frac{2(38-x)}{16}

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} x}=0

\frac{x}{4\pi }=\frac{38-x}{16}

x=\frac{38\pi }{4+\pi }

Therefore circumference of circle

x=\frac{38\pi }{4+\pi }=\frac{119.396}{7.142}=16.717 cm

Answer:

Yes, the random conditions are met

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, np^ = 32 and n(1 − p^) = 18.

Thus, we can say that:Yes, the random condition for finding confidence intervals is met because the values of np^ and n(1 − p^) are greater than 10.

Also, Yes, the random condition for finding confidence intervals is met because the sample size is greater than 30.

Confidence interval approach is valid if;

1) sample is a simple random sample

2) sample size is sufficiently large, which means that it includes at least 10 successes and 10 failures. In general a sample size of 30 is considered sufficient.

These two conditions are met by the sample described in the question.

So, Yes, the random conditions are met.

Two friends decide to run everyday for exercise Steve runs 2.5 miles per day. Sam runs 6.5 miles per day gho many days will it t
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that Steve runs 2.5 miles per day and Sam runs 6.5 miles per day. If you add these together, we see that they run 9 miles every day.

We now need to see how many of these 9 mile days fit into this 450 miles. Let's divide 450 by 9 and we will see how many days it will take for them to reach 450 miles combined.

450÷9=50

Therefore, it will take Steve and Sam 50 days to reach 450 miles combined!

Have a wonderful day! :D
