see how it do it in the picture and hope it helps you..
Answer:
Height: 3/2 inches
Length: 12 inches
Width: 4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x is the side length of the square
The height of the box by cutting squares off :x
- The new length of the cardboard = 15 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
- The new width of the cardboard = 7 -2x (because we cut from 4 corners)
The new volume of it is:
V = (15 -2x) (7 -2x) x
<=> V =
To maximum volume, we use the first derivative of the volume
<=> 
<=> 
<=> 2x -3 = 0 or 6x -35 = 0
<=> x = 3/2 or x = 35/6
To determine which value of x gives a maximum, we evaluate
= 24x -88
= 24(3/2) -88 = -52
= 24(35/6) -88 = 52
We choose x = 3/2 to have the maximum volume because the value of x that gives a negative value is maximum.
So the dimensions (in inches) of the box is:
Height: 3/2 inches
Length: 15-2(3/2) = 12 inches
Width: 7 - 2(3/2) = 4 inches
Answer:
.095 laps per minute (if you need this answer as well 10.5 minutes per lap)
Step-by-step explanation:
(2/3)/7 =.095238 this is laps per min
7/(2/3)= 10.5 this is minutes per lap
I hope this is what you were looking for.
Answer:
129
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the survey to be representative, you can simply multiply the share of students <em>p</em> preferring “Track & Field” with the whole school population at the same time to estimate the number of such students in the whole school.
First we need to find the relative share <em>p</em> of such answers in the study by dividing it by the sum of answers, assuming that the table is complete for that random sample:
<em>p</em> = 4/(8 + 5 + 4) = 4/17
Then for the whole school we get 550 <em>p</em> ≈ 129.4
