Answer:

a. set 1: 29 minutes; set 2: 25 minutes

b. set 1 is more challenging than set 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The mean is found by adding the times and dividing by the number of times. For set 1, that is ...

(2×27 +2×28 +3×29 +2×30 +33)/10 = 290/10 = 29 . . . minutes

For set 2, that is ...

(4x24 +4×25 +2×27)/10 = 250/10 = 25 . . . minutes

b. The mean of set 1 is higher, and the spread is wider, suggesting more students have more trouble with the problems of set 1. That is, ...

set 1 is more challenging than set 2

A ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 22 meters per second. The quadratic function h(x)= -4.9t square +22t+5

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Height of the ball after 3 seconds = 27.4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 22t + 5.5

h(3) means the height of the ball at time 3 seconds after the ball was thrown.

h(3) = -4.9(3)^2 + 22(3) + 5.5

= 27.4 feet

A box with a square base and an open top is being constructed out of A cm2 of material. If the volume of the box is to be maximi

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Side length = $\sqrt{\frac{A}{3} }$ cm , Height = $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{A}{3} }$ cm , Volume = $\frac{A\sqrt{A}}{6\sqrt{3} }$ cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume

Side length of base = x

Height of box = y

total material required to construct box = A ( given in question)

So it can be written as

A = x² + 4xy

4xy = A - x²

$y = \frac{A - x^{2} }{4x}$

Volume of box = Area x height

V = x² ₓ y

V = x² ₓ ( $\frac{A - x^{2} }{4x}$ )

V = $\frac{Ax - x^{3} }{4}$

To find max volume put V' = 0

So taking derivative equation becomes

$\frac{A - 3 x^{2} }{4} = 0$

A = 3 $x^{2}$

$x^{2}$ = $\frac{A}{3}$

x = $\sqrt{\frac{A}{3\\} }$

put value of x in equation 1

y = $\frac{A - \frac{A}{3} }{4\sqrt{\frac{A}{3} } }$

y = $\frac{2 \sqrt{\frac{A}{3} } }{4 \sqrt{\frac{A}{3} } }$

y = $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{A}{3} }$

So the volume will be

V = $x^{2}$ × y

Put values of x and y from equation 2 & 3

V = $\frac{A}{3} (\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{A}{3} } )$

V = $\frac{A\sqrt{A}}{6\sqrt{3} }$

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 21 and a side length of 2x - 3. Solve for x

scoray [572]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is equilateral, all the sides are equal. so you can make your equation

3(2x-3)=21

Distribute the 3 throughout, giving you 6x-3=21

Subtract the 3 from both sides, and you are left with 6x=18

Divide 18 by 6 and you get 3.
