Answer: The mean temperature for the first eight days is 6.5 degrees
Step-by-step explanation: The most important piece of clue has been given which is the mean (average) for the observed data set, which is 7 days.
Note that the formula for the mean of a data set is derived as;
Mean = ∑x / f
Where ∑x is the summation of all observed data set and f is the number of data observed, that is 7. The formula now becomes;
6 = ∑x / 7
By cross multiplication, we now have,
6 * 7 = ∑x
42 = ∑x
This means the addition of all temperature observed on the first 7 days is 42. The temperature on the eighth day is now given as 10 degrees, this means the summation of all observed data for the first eight days would become 42 + 10 which equals 52. Therefore when calculating the mean for the first eight days, ∑x is now 52. The formula for the first eight days therefore is derived as follows;
Mean = ∑x / 8
Mean = 52 / 8
Mean = 6.5
The calculations therefore show that the mean temperature for the first eight days in January is 6.5 degrees
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
y-intercept is where x is zero, so we must look at where the y-iterceot is crossed
Answer:
Maximum area = 800 square feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached,
Rectangle is showing width = x ft and the side towards garage is not to be fenced.
Length of the fence has been given as 80 ft.
Therefore, length of the fence = Sum of all three sides of the rectangle to be fenced
80 = x + x + y
80 = 2x + y
y = (80 - 2x)
Now area of the rectangle A = xy
Or function that represents the area of the rectangle is,
A(x) = x(80 - 2x)
A(x) = 80x - 2x²
To find the maximum area we will take the derivative of the function with respect to x and equate it to zero.

= 80 - 4x
A'(x) = 80 - 4x = 0
4x = 80
x = 
x = 20
Therefore, for x = 20 ft area of the rectangular patio will be maximum.
A(20) = 80×(20) - 2×(20)²
= 1600 - 800
= 800 square feet
Maximum area of the patio is 800 square feet.
