A sheet of cardboard 12 inches square is used to make an open box by cutting out squares of equal size from the four corners and bending up the sides. What size should the squares be to obtain a box with the largest possible volume

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x=6+3\sqrt{2}[/tex] is the size of the square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the square cut from the cardboard be “x”

Size of the square base = [tex]12 -2x[/tex], height of the box = x

Volume of square box = Area * height = [tex](12-2x)^2 * x[/tex]

Differentiating the above equation and equating it to zero, we get –  

d/dx [tex]((12-2x)^2 * x)[/tex]

d/dx[tex]{(144 + 4x^2 -48x)*x}[/tex]= d/dx [tex](144x + 4x^3 -48x^2)[/tex]

d/dx [tex](144x + 4x^3 -48x^2) = 0[/tex]

[tex]144+8x^2-96X= 0\\18 +X^2-12X = 0[/tex]

On solving above equation, we get –  

[tex]x=6+3\sqrt{2} \\ x=6-3\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Answer: Choice D

[tex]\frac{9\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]

=============================================

Explanation:

We have a 45-45-90 triangle. If x is the leg length, then y = x*sqrt(2) is the hypotenuse.

Solving for y gets us [tex]x= \frac{y}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]

In this case, y = 9 is the hypotenuse which then leads to choice D.

------------

Another way to find the answer is to use the pythagorean theorem

a = x and b = x are the two congruent legs

c = 9 is the hypotenuse

Solving a^2+b^2 = c^2, aka x^2+x^2 = 9^2, will lead to [tex]x = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]

The sphere at the right fits snugly inside a cube with 18​-in. edges. What is the approximate volume of the space between the sphere and​ cube?

Answers

Answer:

2,778 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume cube

v = 18³

v = 5,832

Volume sphere

v = (4/3)π9³

v = 3,053.6280592893

Volume space

v = 5,832 - 3,053.6280592893

v = 2,778.3719407107

2,778 in³

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to first find the volume of the cube, then subtract from it the volume of the sphere. This is what we are being asked to find. First, the volume of the cube is length times width times height. Since this is a cube, all of the sides are the same length, making the volume

V = 18³ so

V = 5832 inches cubed. Now for the sphere.

The formula for the volume of a sphere is

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex] and we will use 3.1415 for π.

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3}(3.1415)(9)^3[/tex] which gives us

V = 3053.538

Subtracting the volume of the sphere from the volume of the cube:

V = 5832 - 3053.538

V = 2778.462 inches cubed

The weight of oranges growing in an orchard is normally distributed with a mean weight of 5 oz. and a standard deviation of 0.5 oz. From a batch of 1500 oranges, how many would be expected to weight less than 5 oz., to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer:

The interval that would represent weights of the middle 95% of all oranges from this orchard is from 5 oz to 7 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 6

Standard deviation = 0.5

Middle 95% of weights:

By the Empirical Rule, within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

6 - 2*0.5 = 5

6 + 2*0.5 = 7

The interval that would represent weights of the middle 95% of all oranges from this orchard is from 5 oz to 7 oz.

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]3^{x-7}[/tex] + 4 = 85 ( subtract 4 from both sides

[tex]3^{x-7}[/tex] = 81

[tex]3^{x-7}[/tex] = [tex]3^{4}[/tex]

x - 7 = 4 ( add 7 to both sides )

x = 11

========================================================

Explanation:

H = heads

T = tails

HHH means we get 3 heads in a row, HHT means heads twice then tails the third time, and so on.

Here are the 8 ways to flip three coins (note: 2^3 = 2*2*2 = 8).

HHHHHTHTHHTTTHHTHTTTHTTT

We see that HHH only comes up once out of 8 total times. Therefore, the probability of getting HHH is 1/8

------------

Another way to see the answer is note that P(H) = 1/2 is the probability of getting heads on a single coin flip

Then with two coin flips, we have P(HH) = P(H)*P(H) = (1/2)*(1/2) = 1/4. Each coin flip is independent of one another.

And finally, P(HHH) = P(H)*P(H)*P(H) = (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2) = 1/8

Answers

Answer:

To solve for x,  I would use Cosine.

This is because cosine holds the ratio of adjacent/hypotenuse. Based on the diagram, we can see that HYPOTENUSE = x, so we are solving for x. We know the angle, is 17 degrees. Lastly, we know the triangle leg ADJACENT to the angle is 10 units long. So we would use cosine, implementing the ratio adjacent/hypotenuse. Solving this, we would use cos(17)=10/x. Then our goal is to isolate x, so cos(17)=10/x becomes cos(17)*x=10, we are still trying to isolate x, so, x=10/cos(17). Therefore, our answer  x = 10.457 units. cosine would be the best way to go.
