Overall  dimensions of the page in order to maximize the printing area is  page should be 11 inches wide and 10 inches long .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , A page should have perimeter of 42 inches. The printing area within the page  would be determined by top and bottom margins of 1 inch from each side, and the  left and right margins of 1.5 inches from each side. let's assume  width of the page be x inches  and its length be y inches So,

Perimeter = 42 inches

⇒ 2(x+y) = 42\\x+y = 21\\y = 21-x

width of printed area = x-3  & length of printed area = y-2:

area = length(width)

area = (x-3)(y-2)\\area = (x-3)(21-x-2)\\area = (x-3)(19-x)\\area = -x^{2} + 22x -57

Let's find \frac{d(area)}{dx}:

\frac{d(area)}{dx} = \frac{d(-x^{2}+22x-57)}{dx} = -2x +22 , for area to be maximum \frac{d(area)}{dx}= 0

⇒ -2x+22 = 0\\2x =22\\x=11 inches

And ,

y = 21-x\\y = 21-11\\y = 10 inches

∴ Overall  dimensions of the page in order to maximize the printing area is  page should be 11 inches wide and 10 inches long .

Two brands of AAA batteries are tested in order to compare their voltage. The data summary can be found below.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval would be given by 0.281 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 0.529  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

\bar X_1 =9.2 represent the sample mean 1

\bar X_2 =8.8 represent the sample mean 2

n1=27 represent the sample 1 size  

n2=30 represent the sample 2 size  

\sigma_1 =0.3 population standard deviation for sample 1

\sigma_2 =0.1 population standard deviation for sample 2

\mu_1 -\mu_2 parameter of interest.

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the difference of means is given by the following formula:  

(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2}} (1)  

The point of estimate for \mu_1 -\mu_2 is just given by:

\bar X_1 -\bar X_2 =9.2-8.8=0.4

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of \alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=1.96  

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):  

0.4-1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}=0.281  

0.4+1.96\sqrt{\frac{6^2}{36}+\frac{7^}{49}}=0.519  

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by 0.281 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 0.529

choose the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the given point
alexdok [17]

We want to determine the equation in point slope form for the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passing through the point (5.6) .

The equation and the point is;

y=\frac{2}{3}x+9,(5,6)

We know that for two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes should be -1.

Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular should be;

m=-\frac{1}{(\frac{2}{3})}=-\frac{3}{2}

The second condition is that the line must pass through the point (5,6) , to do thid, we write the equation of the line in point slope form which is;

y-y_1=m(x-x_{1_{}})

Inserting all values, we have,

y-6=.-\frac{3}{2}(x-5)

That is the final answer.

How should I solve for x and what is x?
algol [13]

Answer:

x =12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + x^2 = 20^2

256 +x^2 = 400

Subtract 256 from each side

256-256 +x^2 = 400-256

x^2 =144

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)

x = 12
