Answer:

The maximum height of the prism is 12\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the height of the prism

we know that

the area of the rectangular base of the prism is equal to

A=L*W

A\leq 27\ m^{2}

so

L*W\leq 27 -------> inequality A

W=x-9 ------> equation B

L=W+6 -----> equation C

Substitute equation B in equation C

L=(x-9)+6

L=x-3 ------> equation D

Substitute equation B and equation D in the inequality A

(x-3)*(x-9)\leq 27-------> using a graphing tool to solve the inequality

The solution for x is the interval---------->[0,12]

see the attached figure

but remember that

The width of the base must be 9 meters less than the height of the prism

so

the solution for x is the interval ------> (9,12]

The maximum height of the prism is 12\ m

Which statement identifies how to show that j(x) = 11.6ex and k(x) = In (StartFraction x Over 11.6 EndFraction) are inverse func
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>It must be shown that both j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6}, to show that both equality functions are true, all we need to show is that both  j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x,

For j(k(x));

j(k(x)) = j[(ln x/11.6)]

j[(ln (x/11.6)] = 11.6e^{ln (x/11.6)}

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6(x/11.6) (exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm)

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6 * x/11.6

j[(ln x/11.6)] = x

Hence j[k(x)] = x

Similarly for k[j(x)];

k[j(x)] = k[11.6e^x]

k[11.6e^x] = ln (11.6e^x/11.6)

k[11.6e^x]  = ln(e^x)

exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm leaving x

k[11.6e^x]  = x

Hence k[j(x)] = x

From the calculations above, it can be seen that j[k(x)] =  k[j(x)]  = x, this shows that the functions j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6} are inverse functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>CDs have a higher mean than digital</u>

<u />

Let's check.  CD mean is (1000 + 800 + 800 + 600 + 400 + 200)/6 = 633.33

Digital mean: (100 + 300 + 300 + 500 + 700 + 900)/6 = 466.67

CD's mean is higher.  Since you are dividing byt he same number you also could have just added the amount and found which was a larger number.  But yes, this is true.

<u>The range of digital is 800</u>

<u />

The range is the highest number inus the lowest number.  For digital the highest is 900 and lowest is 100 so the ange is 900-100 = 800.  So this is true.

<u>The median of CDs is 400. </u>

<u />

The median is the middle value for odd numbers of values, or the average of the two middle values.  6 total values means you have to take the third and fourth and average them.  in CDs the middle values are 800 and 600, the average is 700, so that is what the median is.  this is false.

<u>Both have the same interquartile range. </u>

<u />

Interquartile range is to find the middle number or numbers like in median, then take the two parts it is split into and find the "median" of those.  Then subtract the larger one fromt he smaller one.

IQR of CD the first half is 200, 400, 600 so the middle here is 400, second half has a middle number of 800 so IQR here is 800-400=400

IQR of digital is 700-300 = 400 so yes both are the same.

<u>Both have the same median</u>

<u />

We know the medan of CDs is 700 then findign the median of digital is (300+500)/2 = 400.  So no, the medians are not the same.

<u>Digital’s mean is around 467. </u>

<u />

We founf the mean for digital to be 466.67 which rounds up to 467, So I would say it is true.

Grace has 1.35 pounds of strawberries, 1.4 pounds of bananas, and some apples. She has more pounds of apples than pounds of stra
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Grace could have 1.36 pounds, 1.37 pounds, 1.38 pounds or 1.39 pounds of apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent pounds of apples.

We have been given that Grace has 1.35 pounds of strawberries. She has more pounds of apples than pounds of strawberries.

This means that a is greater than 1.35. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

a>1.35

We are also told that Grace has 1.4 pounds of bananas. She has fewer pounds of apples than pounds of bananas. This means that a is less than 1.4. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

a

Upon combining both inequalities, we will get:

1.35

Therefore, Grace could have 1.36 pounds, 1.37 pounds, 1.38 pounds or 1.39 pounds of apples.
