A survey finds that 40% of students ride in a car to school. Eri would like to estimate the probability that if 3 students were

randomly selected, only 1 rides in a car.
To simulate this probability, she lets the numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3 represent a student who rides in a car to school and then 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 represent a student who does not ride in a car to school. She then has a computer randomly select 3 numbers. She repeats this process for 20 trials.

The results of these trials are shown in the table.
468 380 120 220
553 945 935 607
473 490 074 981
692 518 408 954
943 389 594 569

Based on this simulation, what is the estimated probability that only 1 of 3 randomly selected students rides in a car to school?

Suppose measure of angle ABC equals 110, what is the measure of angle DBC?
shtirl [24]
There is no way of solving that unless we are given more information. Are ABC and DBC supplementary angles? If so, then m<DBC equals 70.

A sheet of paper 90 cm-by-66 cm is made into an open box (i.e. there's no top), by cutting x-cm squares out of each corner and f
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

26 - \sqrt{181} cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is:

V = height * length * width

V = x*(66 - 2*x)*(90 - 2*x)

V = (66*x - 2*x^2)*(90 - 2*x)

V = 5940*x - 132*x^2 - 180*x^2 + 4*x^3

V = 4*x^3 - 312*x^2 + 5940*x

where x is the length of the sides of the squares,  in cm.

The mathematical problem is :

Maximize: V = 4*x^3 - 312*x^2 + 5940*x

subject to:

x > 0

2*x < 66 <=> x < 33

In the maximum, the first derivative of V, dV/dx, is equal to zero

dV/dx = 12*x^2 - 624*x + 5940

From quadratic formula

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4(a)(c)}}{2(a)}

x = \frac{624 \pm \sqrt{(-624)^2 - 4(12)(5940)}}{2(12)}

x = \frac{624 \pm \sqrt{104256}}{24}

x = \frac{624 \pm \sqrt{2^6*3^2*181}}{24}

x = \frac{624 \pm 8*3*\sqrt{181}}{24}

x_1 = \frac{624 + 24*\sqrt{181}}{24}

x_1 = 26 + \sqrt{181}

x_2 = \frac{624 - 24*\sqrt{181}}{24}

x_2 = 26 - \sqrt{181}

But x_1 > 33, then is not the correct answer.
