Answer:

1. She could use 7 hours and 11 dollars per hour.

2. $77 (7x11)

3 I'd say my estimate is a little more than the exact amount because I did 6.75 (6.75 because 45 minutes is 75% of a hour) x 10.90 and got 73.575.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we're going by estimation, then you can do 11 and 7 hours, meaning that she would make 77 for the 7 hours but the exact answer would be a bit less than the estimation

10.9 times 6.75 is 73.58 roughly. so 3 dollars and 42 cents off

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question says that it uses 120 feet of fencing material to enclose three sides of the play area. This means there are 3 sides. Putting this into equation, we have something like this.

120 = L + 2W

Where

LW = area.

Again, in order to maximize the area with the given fencing, from the equation written above, then Width, w must be = 30 feet and length, l must be = 60

On substituting, we have

A = LW = (120 - 2W) W

From the first equation, making L the subject of the formula, we have this

L = 120 - 2W, which then we substituted above.

On simplification, we have

L = 120W -2W²

Differentiating, we have

A' = 120 - 4W = 0

Remember that W = 30

So therefore, L = 120 - 2(30) = 60 feet

A tunnel is built in form of a parabola. The width at the base of tunnel is 7 m. On
anastassius [24]

Given:

The width at the base of parabolic tunnel is 7 m.

The ceiling 3 m from each end of the base there are light fixtures.

The height to light fixtures is 4 m.

To find:

Whether it is possible a trailer truck carrying cars is 4 m wide and 2.8 m high is going to drive through the tunnel.

Solution:

The width at the base of tunnel is 7 m.

Let the graph of the parabola intersect the x-axis at x=0 and x=7. It means x and (x-7) are the factors of the height function.

The function of height is:

h(x)=ax(x-7)             ...(i)

Where, a is a constant.

The ceiling 3 m from each end of the base there are light fixtures and the height to light fixtures is 4 m. It means the graph of height function passes through the point (3,4).

Putting x=3 and h(x)=4 in (i), we get

4=a(3)((3)-7)

4=a(3)(-4)

\dfrac{4}{(3)(-4)}=a

-\dfrac{1}{3}=a

Putting a=-\dfrac{1}{3}, we get

h(x)=-\dfrac{1}{3}x(x-7)              ...(ii)

The center of the parabola is the midpoint of 0 and 7, i.e., 3.

The width of the truck is 4 m. If is passes through the center then the truck must m 2 m on the left side of the center and 2 m on the right side of the center.

2 m on the left side of the center is x=1.5.

A trailer truck carrying cars is 4 m wide and 2.8 m high is going to drive through the tunnel is possible if h(1.5) is greater than 2.8.

Putting x=1.5 in (ii), we get

h(1.5)=-\dfrac{1}{3}(1.5)(1.5-7)

h(1.5)=-(0.5)(-5.5)

h(1.5)=2.75

It is clear that h(1.5)<2.8, therefore the trailer truck carrying cars is 4 m wide and 2.8 m high is going to drive through the tunnel is not possible.

The distribution of cholesterol levels in teenage boys is approximately normal withnbsp mu equals 170 and sigma equals 30 ​(Sour
ddd [48]

Answer: 0.0336

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The distribution of cholesterol levels in teenage boys is approximately normal with mean :\mu= 170

Standard deviation : \sigma= 30

The formula for z-score is given by :-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x=225

z=\dfrac{225-170}{30}=1.83

The p-value =P(z>1.83)=1-P(z

=1-0.966375=0.033625\approx0.0336

The probability that a teenage boy has a cholesterol level greater than 225 =0.0336
