Note: Consider x be the breadth of the box.
Given:
The surface area of the box is 204.25 square feet.
Length of the box = 10 ft
Breadth of the box = x ft
Height of the box = 6.5 ft
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
The surface area of a cuboid is:
Where, l is length, b is breadth and h is height of the cuboid.
Putting in the above formula, we get
Using distributive property, we get
Divide both sides by 33.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the grade points avergae of a population, and for this case we know the following properties
Where and
The empirical rule, also referred to as the three-sigma rule or 68-95-99.7 rule, is a statistical rule which states that for a normal distribution, almost all data falls within three standard deviations (denoted by σ) of the mean (denoted by µ). Broken down, the empirical rule shows that 68% falls within the first standard deviation (µ ± σ), 95% within the first two standard deviations (µ ± 2σ), and 99.7% within the first three standard deviations (µ ± 3σ).
So we can find the z score for the value of X=3.44 in order to see how many deviations above or belowe we are from the mean like this:
So the value of 3.44 is 2 deviations above from the mean, so then we know that the percentage between two deviations from the mean is 95% and on each tail we need to have (100-95)/2 = 2.5% , because the distribution is symmetrical, so based on this we can conclude that:
Answer:
The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is given by:
(1)
Where:
b: is the base
h: is the altitude = 10 cm
If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:
We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:
Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:
Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
