If the length of one base of a trapezoid is 44, the median is 36, and the other base is 2x + 10, find x.

Answer:

  9

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the average of the base lengths. Where "b" is the length of the other base, we have ...

  36 = (44 +b)/2

  b = 72 -44 = 28

We are told this is the same as 2x+10, so we have ...

  28 = 2x +10

  18 = 2x . . . . . subtract 10

  9 = x . . . . . . . divide by 2

The value of x is 9.

An aircraft factory manufactures airplane engines. The unit cost C (the cost in dollars to make each airplane engine) depends on
butalik [34]

Answer:

90 engines must be made to minimize the unit cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c

It's vertex is the point (x_{v}, y_{v})

In which

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}

Where

\Delta = b^2-4ac

If a>0, the minimum value of the function will happen for x = x_v

C(x)=x²-180x+20,482

This means that a = 1, b = -180, c = 20482

How many engines must be made to minimize the unit cost?

x value of the vertex. So

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{-180}{2(1)} = 90

90 engines must be made to minimize the unit cost.

A number cube is tossed 8 times. What is the probability that the cube never lands on 3?.
tino4ka555 [31]

The probability that the cube never lands on 3 is (D) 23.3%.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>
  • A probability formula can be used to calculate the likelihood of an occurrence by simply dividing the favorable number of possibilities by the entire number of possible outcomes.

To find the probability that the cube never lands on 3:

Given -

  • Number cube toss = 8

Required

  • Probability of not landing on 3.

First, we need to get the probability of landing on 3 in a single toss.

For a number cube,

  • n(3) = 1 and n(total) = 6

So, the probability is P(3) = 1/6

First, we need to get the probability of not landing on 3 in a single toss.

Opposite probability = 1.

  • So, P(3) = P(3') = 1.

Make P(3') the subject of the formula.

  • P(3') = 1 - P(3)
  • P(3') = 1 - 1/6
  • P(3') = 5/6

In 8 toss, the required probability is (P(3'))⁸

This gives:

  • P = (5/6)⁸
  • P = 390625/1679616
  • P = 0.23256803936

Approximate to 1 decimal place, P = 23.3%.

Therefore, the probability that the cube never lands on 3 is (D) 23.3%.
