Step-by-step explanation:

Inflection points are where a function changes concavity (the second derivative changes signs). At x = 4, f"(x) goes from negative to positive, so that's an inflection point. However, at x = 8, we don't know if f"(x) changes signs or not. So we can't say that that's an inflection point.

forsale [732]

Answer:

700 lbs and 3.742

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that raw materials are studied for contamination. Suppose that the number of particles of contamination per pound of material is a Poisson random variable with a mean of 0.02 particle per pound.

a) To get 14 particles of contamination we must have

expected number of pounds = $\frac{14}{0.02} \\=700$

b) Since for 700 pounds particles expected are 14 we can say in a Poisson distribution mean and variance are equal

i.e. Var (700 lbs to obtain 14 particles of contamination ) = 14

Std deviation = $\sqrt{14} =3.742$

Tom wants to reach a second floor window on a house that is 20 feet above ground. If he must put the ladder at a 70 degree angle

joja [24]

Picture a right triangle whose hypotenuse is of unknown length. Let's call that length L. The triangle side opposite the 70 degree angle is then 20 feet. I'd suggest you actually draw this triangle.

Then, using the definition of the sine function,

sin 70 deg = opp / hyp = (20 ft) / L. Transforming this equation, L sin 70 deg = 20 ft. Solving for L:

L = (20 ft) / (sin 70 deg) = 21.28 ft

The ladder length must be 21.28 ft.
