Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f on the given interval. f(x) = 3x^4 − 4x^3 − 12x^2 + 1, [−2, 3]

Answers

Answer 1

Find the stationary points.

f(x) = 3x ⁴ - 4x ³ - 12x ² + 1

f '(x) = 12x ³ - 12 x ² - 24x

Solve f '(x) = 0.

12x ³ - 12 x ² - 24x = 12x (x ² + x - 2) = 12x (x - 1) (x + 2) = 0

→   x = 0, x = 1, x = -2

Check the value of f at the stationary points.

f (0) = 1

f (1) = -12

f (-2) = 33

Check the value of f at the boundary of the domain.

f (3) = 28

(We've already checked f (-2).)

Then over [-2, 3], we have max(f ) = 33 and min(f ) = -12.

Jumbo eggs in Australia, on average, are supposed to weigh 68g. Margot is in charge of a quality control test that involves weighing a sample of eggs to see if if the sample mean weight is significantly different than 68g. She takes a random sample of 100 eggs and finds a mean weight of 67g and a sample standard deviation of 1g.

Required:
What is the probability that the mean weight of 4 eggs in a package is less than 68.5g?

Answers

Answer:

0.9987 = 99.87% probability that the mean weight of 4 eggs in a package is less than 68.5g

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we use the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean weight of 67g and a sample standard deviation of 1g.

This means that [tex]\mu = 67, \sigma = 1[/tex]

Sample of 4

This means that [tex]n = 4, s = \frac{1}{\sqrt{4}} = 0.5[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean weight of 4 eggs in a package is less than 68.5g?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 68.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{68.5 - 67}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9987

0.9987 = 99.87% probability that the mean weight of 4 eggs in a package is less than 68.5g

8. Misty created the number pattern below. 32, 28, 24, 20, ... If n represents a number in this pattern, which rule could be used to find the next number in the pattern?​

Answers

Answer:

An = 32 - (4*(n-1))

Step-by-step explanation:

the starting term for this pattern is 32 (which you will need to include in the "rule")

you also know that the next term is the previous term - 4

so!

we can write this pattern as

An = 32 - (4*(n-1))

An = any number of term in the pattern

- ex). A2 = 28, A3 = 24, etc

n = the nth term

- the 3rd term = 24, the fourth term = 20, etc

A soda bottling plant uses automated filling machines to fill 2-liter bottles with soda. The plant can produce 8000 bottles of soda in an 8-hour shift. The plant’s quality manager wants to determine how well the process is operating. He takes a sample of 100 bottles from the bottling line and determines that on an average, each bottle contains 2.07 liters of soda, with a standard deviation of 0.06 liters. The specification limits for a bottle of soda are 2.1 liters and 1.9 liters

Answers

Answer:

0.6892 = 68.92% of bottles are within specification.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

On average, each bottle contains 2.07 liters of soda, with a standard deviation of 0.06 liters.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2.07, \sigma = 0.06[/tex]

The plant’s quality manager wants to determine how well the process is operating.

To do this, we find the proportion of bottles within specification.

The specification limits for a bottle of soda are 2.1 liters and 1.9 liters

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 2.1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1.9. So

X = 2.1

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{2.1 - 2.07}{0.06}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.6915.

X = 1.9

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1.9 - 2.07}{0.06}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.83[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.83[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0023

0.6915 - 0.0023 = 0.6892

0.6892 = 68.92% of bottles are within specification.

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines tells you ...

  a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)

Solving for A, we get ...

  A = arccos((b² +c² -a²)/(2bc))

  A = arccos((15² +24² -14²)/(2·15·24)) = arccos(605/720)

  A ≈ 32.8305°

x = 6 , y = 0   (x , y) = (6 , 0)

x = 12, y = 3   (x , y) = (12 , 3)

x = 24, y = 9   (x , y) = (24 , 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply plug in a x, and find a y that would make the equation true:

When x = 6:

6 - 2y = 6

6 (-6) - 2y = 6 (-6)

-2y = 0

(-2y)/-2 = (0)/-2

y = 0

When x = 6, y = 0    (x , y) = (6 , 0)

When x = 12:

12 - 2y = 6

12 (-12) -2y = 6 (-12)

-2y = -6

(-2y)/-2 = (-6)/-2

y = 3

When x = 12, y = 3   (x , y) = (12 , 3)

When x = 24:

24 - 2y = 6

24 (-24) - 2y = 6 (-24)

-2y = -18

(-2y)/-2 = (-18)/-2

y = 9

When x = 24, y = 9   (x , y) = (24 , 9)

Which equation is equivalent to 3-4x=12

Answers

We have a linear equation here.

3 - 4x = 12

Subtract 3 from both sides.

3 - 3 - 4x = 12 - 3

-4x = 9

Divide both sides by -4 to find x.

-4x/-4 = 9/-4

x = -9/4

The value of solution of expression is,

⇒ x = - 9 / 14

WE have to given that;

A mathematical expression is,

⇒ 3 - 4x = 12

Now, WE can simplify as;

⇒ 3 - 4x = 12

Add 4x both side,

⇒ 3 - 4x + 4x = 12 + 4x

⇒ 3 = 12 + 4x

Subtract 12 both side, we get;

⇒ 3 - 12 = 14x

⇒ - 9 = 14x

⇒ x = - 9 / 14

Thus, The value of solution of expression is,

⇒ x = - 9 / 14

A group of engineers developed a new design for a steel cable. They need to estimate the amount of weight the cable can hold. The weight limit will be reported on cable packaging. The engineers take a random sample of 46 cables and apply weights to each of them until they break. The 46 cables have a mean breaking weight of 779 lb. The standard deviation of the breaking weight for the sample is 15.4 lb. Find the 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean breaking weight for this type cable.

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean breaking weight for this type cable is between 772.9 lb and 785.1 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 46 - 1 = 45

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 45 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex]. So we have T = 2.69

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.69\frac{15.4}{\sqrt{46}} = 6.1[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 779 - 6.1 = 772.9 lb

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 779 + 6.1 = 785.1 lb

The 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean breaking weight for this type cable is between 772.9 lb and 785.1 lb.

Y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the sine rule to solve this.  The sine rule states that:

Sin(a) / A = Sin(b) / B = Sin(c) = C

In other words the sine of the angle in any corner in a triangle, divided by the length of the opposite side, will be equal to that of the other two sides as well.  

In this case, we can take the ratio between the sine of the right angle, and each of our hypotenuses, and state them as equal, giving us the solution:

sin(90) / (5y + 13) = sin(90) / 6y

1 / (5y + 13) = 1 / 6y

5y + 13 = 6y

6y - 5y = 13

y = 13

An elementary school held a fundraiser. Students sold candles and plants. The plants sold for $12.50 each and the
candles sold for $3.75 each. The school raised $3,987.50 and sold 410 candles and plants altogether. How many
CANDLES did they sell?

Answers

Answer:

The school sold 130 candles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the plants sold for $12.50 each and the  candles sold for $3.75 each. If the  school raised raised $3,987.50 and sold 410 candles and plants altogether then the number of candles and plants sold may be computed simultaneously as follows:

Let the number of candles sold be c and the number of plants sold be p. If the school sold 410 candles and plants altogether

p + c = 410

p = 410 - c

if the plants sold for $12.50 each and the  candles sold for $3.75 each and the school raised raised $3,987.50

12.5p + 3.75c = 3,987.50

12.5(410 - c) + 3.75c = 3,987.50

5125 -12.5c +3.75c = 3,987.50

-8.75c = 3,987.50 - 5125

-8.75c = -1137.5

c = -1137.5/-8.75

= 130
