what is the longest flagpole (in whole feet) that could be shipped in a box that measures 2 ft by 2 ft by 12 ft?

Answer 1
Answer:

The longest flagpole that could be shipped in a box that measures 2 ft by 2 ft by 12 ft is 2 feet long.

How to obtain the minimum value of a function?

To find the minimum of a continuous and twice differentiable function f(x), we can firstly differentiate it with respect to x and equating it to 0 will give us critical points.

Putting those values of x in the second rate of function, if results in negative output, then at that point, there is maxima. If the output is positive then its minima and if its 0, then we will have to find the third derivative (if it exists) and so on.

We are given that;

The measurement of box= 2*2*12ft

Now,

To determine the longest flagpole that could be shipped in a box that measures 2 ft by 2 ft by 12 ft, we need to find the maximum length of a flagpole that can fit inside the box without exceeding any of the box's dimensions.

The longest flagpole that could fit inside the box would be equal to the shortest dimension of the box, which is 2 feet. This is because the flagpole would need to fit inside the box in a diagonal orientation in order to maximize its length.

Therefore, by the maxima and minima answer will be 2 feet long.

Answer 2
Answer: Pythagoras question. Because the question's really just asking you, what is the length of the hypotenuse of a triangle with adjacent and opposite sides of 2 and 12
so a^2+b^2=c^2

4 + 144=148
The square root of 148=12.165 
round it down to 12 :)

Answer:

San Fransisco

Step-by-step explanation:

If Geneva is 12°C colder than her hometown, this means that her hometown is 12°C warmer than -3°C.

Since warmer means a higher number, we find 12 + -3, which is 9°C.

The town that is 9°C is San Fransisco.

The correct answer is B.

Calculate the mean and standard deviation 3,5,6,9,11,12,17​

Answers

Answer:

9 and 3.35 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean=Sum of data÷No. of data

=(3+5+6+9+11+12+17)÷7

=63÷7

=9

Standard Deviation=√{(sum of squares of data÷no. of data)-(sum of data÷no. of data)

=√(705÷7)-(63÷7)

=√100.71÷9

=√11.19

=3.35
