The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
Find the measurements (the lenght L and the width W) of an inscribed rectangle under the line y = -
x + 3 with the 1st quadrant of the x & y coordinate system such that the area is maximum. Also, find that maximum area. To get full credit, you must draw the picture of the problem and label the length and the width in terms of x and y.
Answer: L = 1; W = 9/4; A = 2.25;
Step-by-step explanation: The rectangle is under a straight line. Area of a rectangle is given by A = L*W. To determine the maximum area:
A = x.y
A = x(-
)
A = -
To maximize, we have to differentiate the equation:
= 
(-)
= -3x + 3
The critical point is:
= 0
-3x + 3 = 0
x = 1
Substituing:
y = -x + 3
y = -.1 + 3
y = 9/4
So, the measurements are x = L = 1 and y = W = 9/4
The maximum area is:
A = 1 . 9/4
A = 9/4
A = 2.25
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in appearance.
Proportion of success : 
Sample size taken by customs official : n= 3
Let x be a binomial variable that represents the tablets in the bottle.
Using Binomial probability formula :-
The probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics =
![1-^3C_0(\dfrac{2}{3})^0(1-\dfrac{2}{3})^3\\\\=1-(1)(1)(\dfrac{1}{3})^3\ [\becuase ^nC_0=1]\\\\=1-\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{26}{27}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1-%5E3C_0%28%5Cdfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E0%281-%5Cdfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E3%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-%281%29%281%29%28%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%29%5E3%5C%20%5B%5Cbecuase%20%5EnC_0%3D1%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B27%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B26%7D%7B27%7D)
Hence, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics =
Hello there!
For this you simply need to give both fractions a common denominator!
The easiest way to do this specific problem would be to make the denominator 12. Why 12? Because 4 x 3 = 12.
So:
1/4 --> ?/12 --> 1 (3) / 12 --> 3/12
2/3 --> ?/12 --> 2 (4) / 12 --> 8/12
Total amount of time means the sum (adding them together).
When adding fractions, you MUST have a common denominator! (Which is what we just did).
So 3/12 + 8/12 = (8+3) / 12 = 11/12 hours
Notice how the denominator stayed the same? When adding/subtracting fractions, the denominator stays the same! :)
Hope this helped!

Answer:
3' 6" left
Step-by-step explanation:
6' 11" = 83"
10' 5" = 125"
125 - 83 = 42"
42" = 3' 6"
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
56(t+1/2)=70 t
56T + 28= 70T
28=70T-56T
28=14
2=T
s=T+ 1/2
S=2+ 1/2
S=2.5 hours
