The top and bottom margins of a poster 66 cm each, and the side margins are 44 cm each. If the area of the printed material on t

jasenka [17]

Answer:

width: 24 cm
height: 36 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When margins are involved, the smallest area will be the one that has its dimensions in the same proportion as the margins. If x is the "multiplier", the dimensions of the printed area are ...

(4x)(6x) = 384 cm^2

x^2 = 16 cm^2 . . . . . divide by 24

x = 4 cm

The printed area is 4x by 6x, so is 16 cm by 24 cm. With the margins added, the smallest poster will be ...

24 cm by 36 cm

_____

Comment on margins

It should be obvious that if both side margins are 4 cm, then the width of the poster is 8 cm more than the printed width. Similarly, the 6 cm top and bottom margins make the height of the poster 12 cm more than the height of the printed area.

_____

Alternate solution

Let w represent the width of the printed area. Then the printed height is 384/w, and the total poster area is ...

A = (w+8)(384/w +12) = 384 +12w +3072/w +96

Differentiating with respect to w gives ...

A' = 12 -3072/w^2

Setting this to zero and solving for w gives ...

w = √(3072/12) = 16 . . . . matches above solution.

__

Generic solution

If we let s and t represent the side and top margins, and we use "a" for the printed area, then the above equation becomes the symbolic equation ...

A = (w +s)(a/w +t)

A' = t - sa/w^2

For A' = 0, ...

w = √(sa/t)

and the height is ...

a/w = a/√(sa/t) = √(ta/s)

Then the ratio of width to height is ...

w/(a/w) = w^2/a = (sa/t)/a

width/height = s/t . . . . . . the premise we started with, above

What is the interquartile range of the data set

Verizon [17]

There are many methods of doing this. This one finds the median; however, instead of halving, you can use quarters instead.

First order the data, ascendingly:

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

Find the median:

For an even number of values: The number of values / 2

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 2

11 is odd.

11 + 1 / 2

12 / 2 = 6

The median is at the 6th position.

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

The median is 20.

Other method:

You don't need this step.

Using the values lower than the median, exclusive, find the median of the lower values;

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 2

10, 17, 18, 18, 18

5 + 1 / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3

The median of the lower values is at position 3.

This is the lower quartile.

10, 17, 18, 18, 18

Other method:

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 4

11 + 1 / 4 = 12 / 4 = 3

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

Using the values greater than the median, exclusive, find the median:

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 2

20, 25, 25, 30, 30

5 + 1 / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3

The median of the upper values is at position 3.

20, 25, 25, 30, 30

This is 25.

This is the upper quartile.

Other method:

For an odd number of values: (The number of values + 1 / 4) * 3

(11 + 1 / 4) * 3 = (12 / 4) * 3 = 3 * 3 = 9

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

Your interquartile range is 3 - 25

25 - 3 = 21

According to Wine-Searcher, wine critics generally use a wine-scoring scale to communicate their opinions on the relative qualit

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

$\=x=82$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Data

$\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ |c|c|c|c|c|c| } 87& 91& 86& 82& 72&91 \\ 60& 77& 80& 79& 83&96 \end{tabular}\end{center}$

Generally the equation for Point estimate $\=x$ is mathematically given by

$\=x=\frac{\sum_x}{n}$

$\=x=\frac{87 +91+ 86+ 82 +72 +91+ 60+ 77 +80+ 79+ 83 +96}{12}$

$\=x=\frac{984}{12}$

$\=x=82$
