Elena is making an open-top box by cutting squares out of the corners of a piece of paper that is 11 inches wide and 17 inches l

ong, and then folding up the sides. If the side lengths of her square cutouts are inches, then the volume of the box is given by V(x)=x(11-2x)(17-2x)

Answer:

V(x) = (17 - 2x)(11 - 2x)x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that She is making an open top box. This means the box will have only 5 faces.

Now, she cuts squares out of the paper that measures 11 inches wide and 17 inches long.

Now, if the square side is x, it means the width of the box will be x. Since there are 2 upright faces that serve as width.

Thus, measurement of width from the 11 inches paper = (11 - 2x)

Now, similarly, there will be 2 upright sides that will serve as length. Thus, length from the 17 inches side is;

(17 - 2x)

Now,recall that a side of the square is x.

Thus, the depth is x.

Now, volume of a box is given by;

V = length x width x depth

Thus, in this case;

V(x) = (17 - 2x)(11 - 2x)x

Answer:

1:12

2:-32

3: -35

4: -10

5: 24

6: 90

7: 41.  I used the properties of multiplication to find the product by multiplying 41•1=41 and the 2 negatives cancel each other out.

8: the product is -80. What she could've done is forgot to add the negative sign.

In the Salk vaccine field trial, 400,000 children were part of a randomized controlled double-blind experiment. Just about half
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

The number of children that were randomly allocated to each vaccination group; n₁ = 200,000

No of polio cases X₁ = 57

Now, in the vaccine group:

the proportion of polio cases is:

\hat p_1 = \dfrac{57}{200000}

=  0.000285

The number of children that were randomly allocated to the placebo group, n₂ = 200,000

No of polio cases X₂ = 142

In the placebo group

the proportion of polio cases is:

\hat p_2 = \dfrac{142}{200000}

Null and alternative hypothesis is computed as follows:

H₀: There is no difference in the proportions of polio cases between both groups.  

H₁: There is a difference in the proportions of polio cases between both groups.

Let assume that the level of significance ∝ = 0.05

The test statistic  can be computed as:

Z = \dfrac{\hat p_1-\hat p_2}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat p_1 \hat q_1}{n_1}+ \dfrac{\hat p_2 \hat q_2}{n_2}}}

Z = \dfrac{0.000285-0.000710}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.000285(1-0.000285)}{200000}+ \dfrac{0.000710(1-0.000710)}{200000}}}

Z = \dfrac{-4.25\times 10^{-4}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.000285(0.999715)}{200000}+ \dfrac{0.000710(0.99929)}{200000}}}

Z = - 6.03

P-value =  2P(Z < -6.03)

From the Z - tables

P-value =  2 × 0.0000

= 0.000

We reject the H₀ provided that P-value is very less.

Therefore, we may conclude that there is a difference in the proportions of polio cases between the vaccine group and placebo group not due to chance.
