Answer:
what exactly are we trying to solve for
1. Divide wire b in parts x and b-x.
2. Bend the b-x piece to form a triangle with side (b-x)/3
There are many ways to find the area of the equilateral triangle. One is by the formula A=
A=
Another way is apply the formula A=1/2*base*altitude,
where the altitude can be found by applying the pythagorean theorem on the triangle with hypothenuse (b-x)/3 and side (b-x)/6
3. Let x be the circumference of the circle.
so
Area of circle =
4. Let f(x)=
be the function of the sum of the areas of the triangle and circle.
5. f(x) is a minimum means f'(x)=0
f'(x)=
=0
6. So one part is
and the other part is b-
Answer:
The mean would be $322,343 and the median would be $196,723.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the distribution of individual incomes is skewed to the right, it means that the distribution has a long right tail.
Drawing a distribution with this characteristic, we can see how the majority of the data falls into the left side of the graphic, meaning that a lot of people receive less income. Following this reasoning, the mean which is the amount of the data (in this case individual income) divided by the amount of people, would be the higher number, meaning that the few people who earn more money would influence in making this number higher.
Following this reasoning, the median (which is not influenced by this difference) would be the less high number.
The independent variable would be the fixed rate of $3 because the amount for each mile driven changes based on how far they drive
