Answer:

13058.83 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a rectangular box is having dimensions as 41x81 inches.

Let x be the side of square cut from all the four corners.

The open box made would have height as x and length 41-2x with width 81-2x

Volume =

V(x) = x(41-2x)(81-2x)\\V(x) =x(3321-244x+4x^2)\\V(x) = 3321x-244x^2+4x^3\\V'(x) = 3321-488x+12x^2\\V"(x) = -488+24x\\

Equate first derivative to 0

We get applicable root as x = 8.642

Max volume = 13058.83 cubic inches

Suppose a certain drug test is 85% accurate, meaning that if a person is a user, the result is positive 85% of the time, and if
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

29.411 %  of the result is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

This test's sensitivity is low.

Suppose we have 5 drug users and 85% of the test is accurate meaning that 5* 0.85= 4.25 people are drug users which is true.

But if work for the non users than 5% people being drug users means 95 people are non drug users out of the hundred.

And 85 % accuracy would give  95* 0.85= 80.75 which is very high.

And out of the 80.75 * 15%= 12.11 only 12 are positive .

The results give us  5 out of 17  true possibilities

or 5/17 *100= 29.411 %  of the result is true.

I need help with the first two
mel-nik [20]
The work and answer provided are correct, the simpler way of doing it is

1)
1/6 page written in 1/12 of a minute
to write a full page, you would need to write 1/6, 6 times
so,
\frac{1}{6} \time 6 = 1
and
\frac{1}{12} \times 6 = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}

so it takes 1/2 of a minute to write a full page, there are 60 seconds in a minute, 1/2 of 60 seconds is 30 seconds

same process works for question 2(use 3 instead of 6 though)

What is the value of x in the equation 3x - 4 (2x - 5) = 15
Zepler [3.9K]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Here is our equation

3x - 4 (2x - 5) = 15

First, we will sue the distributive property to remove the parentheses. The term outside the parentheses is -4, so that is what we multiply the insides by.

3x-8x+20=15

We combine our like terms (our x-values).

-5x+20=15

We subtract 20 from both sides.

-5x=-5

We divide both sides by -5.

x=1

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
