In this question, it is given that the diagonal of the board is 18 inches long and one side of the board is 12 inches long.
Let the other side is of length b inches .
Now we use pythagorean identity, which is

Here, a = 12 and c=18
Substituting these values, we will get

And the formula of perimeter is

Substituting the values of the two legs, we will get

The Lagrangian is

It has critical points where the first order derivatives vanish:



From the first two equations we get

Then

At these critical points, we have
(maximum)
(minimum)
Answer:
Volume of pyramid = 317 units³
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume do triangular pyramid = ⅓ × Base Area × height of pyramid
Base area = ½*bh = ½*8*14 = 56 units²
Height of pyramid = 17
Volume of pyramid = ⅓ × 56 × 17
Volume of pyramid = 317 units³ (to nearest whole number)
Answer:
4.6%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that a can of paint contains contamination(C) is 3.23%
P(C)=3.23%
The probability of a mixing(M) error is 2.4%.
P(M)=2.4%
The probability of both is 1.03%.

We want to determine the probability that a randomly selected can has contamination or a mixing error. i.e. 
In probability theory:

The probability that a randomly selected can has contamination or a mixing error is 4.6%.
