This basically comes down to maximizing xyz subject to x+9y+8z=27 and enforcing x,y.z>0. We have the Lagrangian

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=xyz+\lambda(x+9y+8z-27)

with partial derivatives (set equal to 0 to find critical points)

\begin{cases}L_x=yz+\lambda=0\\L_y=xz+9\lambda=0\\L_z=xy+8\lambda=0\\L_\lambda=x+9y+8z-27=0\end{cases}

Solving the first equation for \lambda gives \lambda=-yz. Substituting this into the next two equations, we have

xz-9yz=0\implies z(x-9y)=0\implies x=9y
xy-8yz=0\implies y(x-8z)=0\implies x=8z

Now

x+9y+8z=27\implies x+x+x=3x=27\implies x=9
x=9y\implies y=1
x=8z\implies z=\dfrac98

So the vertex of the cuboid in the given plane that maximizes the cuboids volume is (x,y,z)=\left(9,1,\dfrac98\right), giving a volume of \dfrac{81}8.

A survey of 1000 air travelers1 found that 60 % prefer a window seat. The sample size is large enough to use the normal distribu
stira [4]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is 0.575 to 0.625.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence interval 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

Z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 1000, \pi = 0.60

90% confidence interval

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.60 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.60*0.40}{1000}} = 0.575

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.60 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.60*0.40}{1000}} {119}} = 0.625

The 90% confidence interval is 0.575 to 0.625.

BaLLatris [955]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Let p be the population proportion  of parents who had children in grades​ K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive.

Given : Several years​ ago, 39​% of parents who had children in grades​ K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive.

Set hypothesis to test :

H_0: p=0.39\\\\H_a :p\neq0.39

Sample size : n= 1055

Sample proportion : \hat{p}=\dfrac{466}{1055}=0.441706161137\approx0.44

Critical value for 95% confidence : z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Confidence interval : \hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

0.44\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.39(1-0.39)}{1055}}\\\\0.44\pm0.0299536805135\\\\0.44\pm0.03\\\\=(0.44-0.03, 0.44+0.03)\\\\=(0.41,\ 0.47)

Since , Confidence interval does not contain 0.39.

It means we reject the null hypothesis.

We conclude that 95​% confidence interval represents evidence that​ parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed.

Lydia buys 5 pounds of apples and 3 pounds of bananas for a total of $8.50. Ari buys 3 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of bananas
Anarel [89]
5x + 3y= 8.50
3x + 2y= 5.25

Lydia is the first equation. She bought 5 pounds of apples which is x and bought 3 pounds of bananas which is y. Basically, remember each banana and apple weighs a price per pound. We don't know the price so we just put an x. This is the same for the second equation

Which expressions are equivalent to 3x+3(x+y)3x+3(x+y)3, x, plus, 3, left parenthesis, x, plus, y, right parenthesis ? Choose al
wariber [46]

Answer: Choise A and Choise B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following expression:

3x+3(x+y)

You can simplify it in order to find equivalent expressions.

Appying the Distributive Property, you get:

3x+(3)(x)+(y)(3)=3x+3x+3y

So:

1. If you add the like terms, you get this equivalent expression:

3x+3x+3y=6x+3y

2. But if you factor out 3, you get the following equivalent expression:

3x+3x+3y=3(x+x+y)

Therefore, the expression shown in Choice A and Choise B are equivalents to the expression 3x+3(x+y)
