A. Finding the slope

The slope of the function is simply the ratio of the value of the dependent variable over the independent variable, so in this case it is:

slope = 6/ 3 = 2

 

B. Finding the y – intercept

The y – intercept is simply the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is equal to zero, therefore:

y – intercept (b) = 4

 

C. Finding the function of the graph

The general equation of a line is given as:

y = m x + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept therefore:

y = 2 x + 4

 

D. Finding the x – intercept

The x – intercept is simply the value of the independent variable (x) when the dependent variable (y) is equal to zero, therefore:

0 = 2 x + 4

x = - 2

 

E. Graph the function

I’m having a hard time with this. Is this a typo by the teacher or should I actually be looking for a size?
Lemur [1.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 games in the population.  You need to use a random number generator to choose 2 of these games.

RandomSample[{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12},2]

Let's say the first sample you get is {1,5}.  That corresponds to game times of 8 minutes and 7 minutes.  The mean game time for that sample is 7.5 minutes.  So the first row in your table would be:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}Sample&List\ of\ Game\ Times&Mean\ Game\ Time\\1&8,7&7.5\end{array}\right]

box with a square base and open top must have a volume of 4,000 cm3. Find the dimensions of the box (in cm) that minimize the am
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Hence the width, length is 20 cm and height is 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the box has a square base, let length = width = x. Also, let the height = y, therefore:

The volume of box = width * length * height

4000 = x * x * y

4000 = x²y

y=4000/x²

The surface area (SA) = area of the base + sum of the area of each side

SA = x² + xy + xy + xy + xy

SA = x² + 4xy

substitute y = 4000/x²

SA = x² + 4x(4000/x²)

SA = x² + 16000/x

Taking the derivative:

SA' = 2x - 16000/x²

making SA' = 0:

0 = 2x - 16000/x²

2x = 16000/x²

2x³ = 16000

x³ = 8000

x = 20 cm

y = 4000 / x² = 4000 / 20² = 10 cm

Hence the width, length is 20 cm and height is 10 cm
