The curve is y = 7√x and the point is (98,0). Using the Distance Formula, we have,let (x,y) be the point on the curve closest to the given point,

(x − 98)² + (y − 0)² = d²,

where d is the distance between the two points.

Substituting the equation of the curve into the above equation and then simplifying we get: To find the point on the curve that is closest to the given point, we need to minimize the distance function d. Squaring d preserves its minimum value and makes the distance function differentiable, making it easier to optimize.

Substituting x² − 147x + 9604 for d² and taking the derivative of the resulting function we get: Setting the derivative equal to 0 and solving for x we get: We need to verify that this point is a minimum and not a maximum. Substituting x = 73.5 into the distance function and taking the square root we get:d = √(73.5² − 147(73.5) + 9604) = √(1209.25) = 34.77 Thus, the point on the curve that is closest to the given point is located at (73.5, 36.43).

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between men and women in the mean number of energy drinks consumed is (-0.443, 1.903).

Therefore, the correct answer is A.

To construct a confidence interval for the difference between men and women in the mean number of energy drinks consumed, we can use the formula

CI = (X'₁ - X'₂) ± t × sqrt((s₁²/n₁) + (s₂²/n₂))

Where

X'₁ and X'₂ are the sample means for men and women, respectively.

s₁ and s₂ are the sample standard deviations for men and women, respectively.

n₁ and n₂ are the sample sizes for men and women, respectively.

t is the critical value for the desired confidence level.

X'₁ = 2.40, s₁ = 4.71, n₁ = 433 (for males)

X'₂ = 1.67, s₂ = 3.50, n₂ = 63 (for females)

Confidence level = 98% (α = 0.02)

First, let's calculate the critical value (t) using the t-distribution with (n₁ + n₂ - 2) degrees of freedom and the given confidence level.

Degrees of freedom = n₁ + n₂ - 2 = 433 + 63 - 2 = 494

t = t-value for α/2 and degrees of freedom = t-value for 0.01 and 494

Using a t-table or a statistical software, we find that the t-value for 0.01 and 494 degrees of freedom is approximately 2.618.

Now, let's calculate the confidence interval by plugging the values in the formula

CI = (2.40 - 1.67) ± 2.618 × sqrt((4.71²/433) + (3.50²/63))

CI = 0.73 ± 2.618 × sqrt(0.0217 + 0.1785)

CI = 0.73 ± 2.618 × sqrt(0.2002)

CI = 0.73 ± 2.618 × 0.4477

CI = 0.73 ± 1.173

CI = (0.73 - 1.173, 0.73 + 1.173)

CI = (-0.443, 1.903)

In the case of the electronic chess game, with a useful life that follows an exponential distribution with a mean of 30 months, we need to determine the length of service time after which the percentage of failed units will approximately equal 50 percent. The options provided are 9 months, 16 months, 21 months, and 25 months.

For the major television manufacturer, the service life of its 50-inch LED televisions follows a normal distribution with a mean of six years and a standard deviation of half a year. We are asked to calculate the probability of service lives of at least five years.

1. Electronic Chess Game:

The exponential distribution is characterized by a constant hazard rate, which implies that the percentage of failed units follows an exponential decay. The mean of 30 months indicates that after 30 months, approximately 63.2% of the units will have failed. To find the length of service time when the percentage of failed units reaches 50%, we can use the formula P(X > x) = e^(-λx), where λ is the failure rate. Setting this probability to 50%, we solve for x: e^(-λx) = 0.5. Since the mean (30 months) is equal to 1/λ, we can substitute it into the equation: e^(-x/30) = 0.5. Solving for x, we find x ≈ 21 months. Therefore, the length of service time after which the percentage of failed units will approximately equal 50 percent is 21 months.

2. LED Televisions:

The service life of 50-inch LED televisions follows a normal distribution with a mean of six years and a standard deviation of half a year. To find the probability of service lives of at least five years, we need to calculate the area under the normal curve to the right of five years (60 months). We can standardize the value using the formula z = (x - μ) / σ, where x is the desired value, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation. Substituting the values, we have z = (60 - 72) / 0.5 = -24. Plugging this value into a standard normal distribution table or using a calculator, we find that the probability of a service life of at least five years is approximately 1.0000 (or 100% with four digits after the decimal point).

Therefore, the probability of service lives of at least five years for 50-inch LED televisions is 1.0000 (or 100%).

We must integrate the surface area of each cylindrical shell to find its volume, with surface area = 2πrh and height equal to the thickness of the shell. The thickness of the shell is dy in this case, and the radius of each cylindrical shell is x. Therefore, the volume of the solid of revolution about the line x = -1 is V = π(5 - 2 ln x). (c) Around the X-Axis:The washer method is used to find the volume of the solid of revolution around the X-axis, which states that the volume of a solid of revolution is equal to the difference between the volumes of two cylinders.

To calculate the moment at the fixed end of the cantilever beam, we need to consider the concentrated load and the uniformly distributed load. Let's calculate each part separately.

#35 Moment at the fixed end (kN.m.):
First, let's calculate the moment due to the concentrated load. The formula for calculating the moment at a point due to a concentrated load is M = F × d, where M is the moment, F is the load, and d is the distance from the load to the fixed end.

Given that the concentrated load is X = 191 kN and the distance from the load to the fixed end is 2 m, we can calculate the moment due to the concentrated load as follows:
M_concentrated = X × d
M_concentrated = 191 kN × 2 m
M_concentrated = 382 kN.m

Next, let's calculate the moment due to the uniformly distributed load. The formula for calculating the moment at a point due to a uniformly distributed load is M = (w × L^2) / 2, where M is the moment, w is the load per unit length, and L is the length of the beam.

Given that the uniformly distributed load is B = 2 kN/m and the length of the beam is 2.8 m, we can calculate the moment due to the uniformly distributed load as follows:
M_uniformly distributed = (B × L^2) / 2
M_uniformly distributed = (2 kN/m × (2.8 m)^2) / 2
M_uniformly distributed = 3.92 kN.m

Finally, to find the total moment at the fixed end, we need to add the moments due to the concentrated load and the uniformly distributed load:
Total moment at the fixed end = M_concentrated + M_uniformly distributed
Total moment at the fixed end = 382 kN.m + 3.92 kN.m
Total moment at the fixed end = 385.92 kN.m

Therefore, the moment at the fixed end of the cantilever beam is 385.92 kN.m.

#36 Shear at the fixed end (KN):
To calculate the shear at the fixed end, we need to consider the concentrated load and the uniformly distributed load. Since the beam is fixed at the wall, the shear at the fixed end will be equal to the sum of the concentrated load and the total load due to the uniformly distributed load.

Given that the concentrated load is X = 191 kN and the uniformly distributed load is B = 2 kN/m, the shear at the fixed end can be calculated as follows:
Shear at the fixed end = X + (B × L)
Shear at the fixed end = 191 kN + (2 kN/m × 2.8 m)
Shear at the fixed end = 191 kN + 5.6 kN
Shear at the fixed end = 196.6 kN

Therefore, the shear at the fixed end of the cantilever beam is 196.6 kN.

#37 Required moment of inertia (mm^4):
To limit the deflection at the free end to 1/300 of the span, we need to calculate the required moment of inertia of the beam.

The formula for calculating the deflection at the free end of a cantilever beam due to a uniformly distributed load is Δ = (5 × w × L^4) / (384 × E × I), where Δ is the deflection, w is the load per unit length, L is the length of the beam, E is the modulus of elasticity, and I is the moment of inertia.

Given that the length of the beam is 2.8 m, the load per unit length is B = 2 kN/m, and the modulus of elasticity is E = 200 GPa (200 × 10^3 MPa), we can rearrange the formula to solve for the required moment of inertia:
I = (5 × w × L^4) / (384 × E × Δ)

Substituting the given values, we get:
I = (5 × 2 kN/m × (2.8 m)^4) / (384 × 200 × 10^3 MPa × (1/300 × 2.8 m))
I = (5 × 2 kN/m × 740.32 m^4) / (384 × 200 × 10^3 MPa × 0.009333 m)
I = 1.229 kN.m^3 / (0.0741 GPa × 9.333 mm)
I ≈ 1.688 × 10^4 mm^4

Therefore, the required moment of inertia of the beam to limit deflection at the free end to 1/300 of the span is approximately 1.688 × 10^4 mm^4.

Question #35:
To calculate the moment at the fixed end of the cantilever beam, we need to consider the effects of both the concentrated load and the uniformly distributed load.

First, let's calculate the moment caused by the concentrated load. The distance between the load and the fixed end of the beam is 2 m. The magnitude of the load is given as X kN, which in this case is 191 kN. To calculate the moment, we multiply the load by the distance:

Moment due to concentrated load = Load x Distance = 191 kN x 2 m = 382 kN.m

Next, let's calculate the moment caused by the uniformly distributed load. The magnitude of the load is given as B kN/m, which in this case is 2 kN/m. The length of the beam is 2.8 m. To calculate the moment, we multiply the load per unit length by the length squared divided by 2:

Moment due to uniformly distributed load = (Load per unit length x Length^2) / 2 = (2 kN/m x (2.8 m)^2) / 2 = 7.84 kN.m

Now, we can calculate the total moment at the fixed end of the beam by summing the moments due to the concentrated load and the uniformly distributed load:

Total moment at the fixed end = Moment due to concentrated load + Moment due to uniformly distributed load
= 382 kN.m + 7.84 kN.m = 389.84 kN.m

Therefore, the moment at the fixed end of the cantilever beam is 389.84 kN.m.

Question #36:
To calculate the shear at the fixed end of the cantilever beam, we only need to consider the effects of the concentrated load, as the uniformly distributed load does not contribute to the shear at the fixed end.

The magnitude of the concentrated load is given as X kN, which in this case is 191 kN. Therefore, the shear at the fixed end of the beam is equal to the magnitude of the concentrated load:

Shear at the fixed end = Concentrated load = 191 kN
Therefore, the shear at the fixed end of the cantilever beam is 191 kN.

Question #37:
To calculate the required moment of inertia of the beam to limit the deflection at the free end to 1/300 of the span, we can use the formula:

Moment of inertia = (5/32) x (Load per unit length x Length^4) / (E x Deflection limit)

Here, the load per unit length is given as B kN/m, which in this case is 2 kN/m. The length of the beam is 2.8 m. The deflection limit is 1/300 of the span, which is 1/300 x 2.8 m = 0.009333 m.

The value of E, the modulus of elasticity, is given as 200 GPa, which is equal to 200 x 10^9 Pa.

Plugging in these values, we can calculate the required moment of inertia:

Moment of inertia = (5/32) x (2 kN/m x (2.8 m)^4) / (200 x 10^9 Pa x 0.009333 m)
= (5/32) x (2 kN/m x 57.4592 m^4) / (1.8666 x 10^9 N/m^2)
= (5/32) x (114.9184 kN.m^3) / (1.8666 x 10^9 N/m^2)
= 0.0169065 kN.m^3 / N/m^2
= 16.9065 x 10^-6 m^4

Therefore, the required moment of inertia of the beam to limit the deflection at the free end to 1/300 of the span is 16.9065 x 10^-6 mm^4.

In this case, with 12 customers arriving per hour and 30 customers being served per hour, the probability of having no customers in the system is 0.40.

The probability that there are no customers in the system in a single-server queuing system can be calculated using the concept of the equilibrium distribution for the system.

To calculate the probability of having no customers in the system, we need to use the concept of the equilibrium distribution. In a single-server queuing system, the equilibrium distribution represents the long-term behavior of the system.

In this case, the arrival rate is 12 customers per hour, and the service rate is 30 customers per hour. Since the service rate is higher than the arrival rate, the system can reach a steady state where it is able to serve customers faster than they arrive.

The equilibrium distribution for the number of customers in the system can be modeled by the M/M/1 queue, which is a commonly used queuing model. In this model, the probability of having no customers in the system, denoted by P(0), can be calculated using the formula:

P(0) = (1 - ρ) / (1 - ρ^(n+1))

where ρ is the traffic intensity, defined as the arrival rate divided by the service rate (ρ = λ / μ), and n is the number of servers (in this case, n = 1).

Substituting the given values, we have:

ρ = 12 / 30 = 0.4

P(0) = (1 - 0.4) / (1 - 0.4^(1+1)) = 0.4

Therefore, the probability that there are no customers in the system is 0.40.

3. The double integral ∬ᵣ y²/x dA over the triangular region R with vertices (0,0), (1,0), and (1,1) is equal to 1/9.

1. To evaluate the double integral ∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ ∫₀ᴸⁿʸ [tex]e^{(x+y)[/tex] dxdy, we'll integrate with respect to x first, then with respect to y.

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ ∫₀ᴸⁿʸ [tex]e^{(x+y)[/tex] dxdy = ∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ [[tex]e^{(x+y)[/tex]]|₀ˣ ᴸⁿʸ dy

Now we substitute the limits of integration for x: ₀ˣ = 0 and ᴸⁿ₈ = ln(8).

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ ∫₀ᴸⁿʸ [tex]e^{(x+y)[/tex] dxdy = ∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ [[tex]e^{(ln(8)[/tex]+y) - [tex]e^{(0+y)[/tex]] dy

Simplifying further:

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ ∫₀ᴸⁿʸ [tex]e^{(x+y)[/tex] dxdy = ∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ [8[tex]e^y[/tex] - [tex]e^y[/tex]] dy

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ ∫₀ᴸⁿʸ [tex]e^{(x+y)[/tex] dxdy = ∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ (7[tex]e^y[/tex]) dy

Integrating with respect to y:

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ (7[tex]e^y[/tex]) dy = 7[[tex]e^y[/tex]]|₀ˣ ᴸⁿ₈

Now substitute the limits of integration for y: ₀ˣ = 0 and ᴸⁿʸ = ln(y).

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ (7[tex]e^y[/tex]) dy = 7[[tex]e^{(ln(8)[/tex]) - [tex]e^0[/tex]]

Simplifying further:

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ (7[tex]e^y[/tex]) dy = 7[8 - 1]

∫₀ᴸⁿ₈ (7[tex]e^y[/tex]) dy = 7 × 7

Therefore, the value of the double integral is 49.

2. To find the area of the surface between the cylinders x²+y²=1 and x²+y²=4 on the hyperbolic paraboloid z=y²-x², we need to parameterize the surface and then calculate the surface area using the parameterization.

Let's consider the parameterization:

x = rcosθ

y = rsinθ

z = y² - x²

Here, we have two cylindrical surfaces, so we can set up the following bounds for r and θ:

1 ≤ r ≤ 2 (corresponding to the cylinders x²+y²=1 and x²+y²=4)

0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π (full revolution around the z-axis)

The surface area element is given by dS = ||(∂r/∂x) × (∂r/∂y)|| dA, where dA is the area element in the xy-plane.

Now, let's calculate the partial derivatives:

∂r/∂x = -sinθ

∂r/∂y = cosθ

Taking their cross-product:

(∂r/∂x) × (∂r/∂y) = (-sinθ)cosθ i + (-sinθ)(-sinθ) j + cosθ k

= -sinθcosθ i + sin²θ j + cosθ k

The magnitude of this cross product is ||(-sinθcosθ) i + (sin²θ) j + cosθ k|| = √(sin²θ + cos²θ + cos²θ) = √(2cos²θ + sin²θ).

Now, the surface area element is given by dS = √(2cos²θ + sin²θ) dA.

Integrating this over the given bounds:

Area = ∫₀²π ∫₁² √(2cos²θ + sin²θ) rdrdθ

The integral can be quite involved to solve explicitly, but the process involves evaluating the double integral numerically.

3. To find the double integral ∬ᵣ y²/x dA over the triangular region R with vertices (0,0), (1,0), and (1,1), we need to set up the integral using the given region boundaries.

Since the region R is a triangle, we can express the bounds of integration as follows:

0 ≤ x ≤ 1

0 ≤ y ≤ x

The integral becomes:

∬ᵣ y²/x dA = ∫₀¹ ∫₀ˣ y²/x dy dx

Integrating with respect to y first:

∫₀ˣ y²/x dy = [(y³/3x)]|₀ˣ = x³/3x = x²/3

Now, integrating with respect to x:

∫₀¹ x²/3 dx = [(x³/9)]|₀¹ = 1/9

Therefore, the value of the double integral ∬ᵣ y²/x dA over the triangular region R is 1/9.

The power series representation of f(x) = 2 - x^3 is f(x) = 2 - (x^3) / 3 + ...

To find the power series representation of the function f(x) = 2 - x^3, we can use the concept of Maclaurin series. The Maclaurin series expansion of a function represents the function as an infinite sum of powers of x.

To start, let's find the derivatives of f(x) up to a few terms:

f(x) = 2 - x^3

f'(x) = -3x^2

f''(x) = -6x

f'''(x) = -6

Now, let's evaluate these derivatives at x = 0 to find the coefficients of the power series:

f(0) = 2

f'(0) = 0

f''(0) = 0

f'''(0) = -6

From this, we can write the power series representation as follows:

f(x) = f(0) + f'(0)x + (f''(0)x^2) / 2! + (f'''(0)x^3) / 3! + ...

Substituting the values we obtained earlier:

f(x) = 2 + 0x + (0x^2) / 2! + (-6x^3) / 3! + ...

Simplifying further, we have:

f(x) = 2 - (x^3) / 3 + ...

Therefore, the power series representation of f(x) = 2 - x^3 is:

f(x) = 2 - (x^3) / 3 + ...

If your target number of calories to lose weight is 1,703 per day, but you are consuming 2,399 calories per day, then your target is to consume approximately 70% of the calories you are currently consuming.

To find the percentage of the target calories in relation to the current calories, we can divide the target calories by the current calories and multiply by 100. So, the calculation would be:

Percentage = (Target Calories / Current Calories) * 100

Substituting the values, we get:

Percentage = (1,703 / 2,399) * 100 ≈ 70%

Therefore, your target is to consume approximately 70% of the calories you are currently consuming in order to meet your weight loss goal.

π is the stationary distribution, and Q is the intensity matrix.

The intensity matrix is an essential aspect of the Markov chain theory.

It represents the transition probabilities between the states of a Markov chain. In this question, we need to find the intensity matrix and the stationary initial distribution for the given system.

Considering a system consisting of N components, all working independently of each other, the life spans of each component is exponentially distributed with mean λ−1.

The repair time of each component is exponentially distributed with mean μ−1.

The system is in state n at time t if there are exactly n components under repair at time t.

The transition probabilities between different states can be obtained using the following expression :pij = probability of transition from state i to state j= limdt → 0P(X(t + dt) = j | X(t) = i) / dtHere, X(t) is the state of the system at time t.

Using this formula, the intensity matrix can be calculated as follows:

Let us consider the state of the system to be n.i.e.,

there are n components under repair at time t.

We can represent this state as state i.

Now let us consider two possible cases.

Case 1: The number of components under repair increases from n to n+1.Suppose there are n components under repair at time t.

One of these components fails during time dt, and the repair of this component starts immediately.

The probability that this component fails during dt is λdt. Now, the number of components under repair has increased from n to n+1. Therefore, the transition probability from state i to state i+1 isλdt.

Case 2: The number of components under repair decreases from n to n-1.Suppose there are n components under repair at time t.

One of these components is repaired during time dt.

The probability that this component is repaired during dt is μdt. Now, the number of components under repair has decreased from n to n-1.

Therefore, the transition probability from state i to state i-1 is μdt.

The diagonal elements of the intensity matrix will be given byλ + μ, 2μ, 3μ, ..., Nμ  (Last row of the matrix).

The upper off-diagonal elements of the matrix will be given byλ, 2λ, 3λ, ..., (N-1)λ (Below the diagonal).

The lower off-diagonal elements of the matrix will be given byμ, 2μ, 3μ, ..., (N-1)μ (Above the diagonal).

The  stationary initial distribution can be obtained by solving the following equation:πQ = 0

Where ,

π is the stationary distribution, and Q is the intensity matrix.

The solution of this equation is given byπi = λi / Σλj , j = 0, 1, ..., N

Here, the numerator is the probability of being in state i, and the denominator is the sum of the probabilities of being in all states.

An open-top box with a square base is to be constructed. The box must contain a volume of 300 cubic inches and have minimum construction cost.

The base of the box is made from a material costing 8 cents per square inch (in2), the front of the box will cost 12 cents/in2 and the remaining sides will cost 3 cents/in2.The dimensions that will minimize the cost of constructing this box are shown below:

The formula for the volume of an open-top box with a square base is V = x2h, where x is the base side length and h is the height.

Therefore, the objective that we need to minimize is the cost of constructing the box.

Cost = (8x2 + 12xh + 3(4xh)) cents = 8x2 + 24xh + 12h3Given that the volume of the box is 300 cubic inches:300 = x2h ⇒ h = 300/x2. 

We can substitute h in the cost equation to get: Cost = 8x2 + 24x(300/x2) + 12(300/x2)3 = 8x2 + 7200/x + 360000/x6To minimize the cost, we can take the first derivative of the cost function and equate it to zero.

d(Cost)/dx = 16x - 7200/x2 + 2160000/x7 = 0We can simplify the equation to get:16x3 - 7200 + 2160000/x5 = 0Multiplying both sides by x5, we obtain:16x8 - 7200x5 + 2160000 = 0We can factor out 1600 to get:x8 - 450x5 + 135000 = 0

Now, we can solve for x using numerical methods (such as Newton's method or a graphing calculator) to find:x ≈ 5.31 inches.

Hence, the base side length of the box is approximately 5.31 inches. We can find the height of the box by substituting x into the volume equation:300 = x2h ⇒ h = 300/x2 = 300/(5.31)2 ≈ 10.57 inches.

Thus, the dimensions of the box that minimize the cost are approximately:Front width = base side length = x ≈ 5.31 inchesDepth = base side length = x ≈ 5.31 inchesHeight = h ≈ 10.57 inches.

The null and alternative hypotheses are set up to determine if there is a significant difference between the mean yield of the soybeans and the advertised value of 594 bushels per acre.

To determine if the mean yield for the soybeans is different than advertised, we can set up the following null and alternative hypotheses:

Null Hypothesis (H₀): The mean yield for the soybeans is equal to the advertised value of 594 bushels per acre.

Alternative Hypothesis (H₁): The mean yield for the soybeans is different from the advertised value of 594 bushels per acre.

Mathematically, we can represent these hypotheses as:

H₀: μ = 594

H₁: μ ≠ 594

Here, μ represents the population mean yield for the soybeans.

The null hypothesis assumes that there is no significant difference between the mean yield of the soybeans and the advertised value. The alternative hypothesis, on the other hand, states that there is a significant difference between the mean yield and the advertised value.

To test these hypotheses, we can use a statistical test such as the t-test. Given that we have a sample mean (x = 550) and a sample variance (s² = 10,000) from the 20 farms, we can calculate the test statistic. The t-test will allow us to determine if the difference between the sample mean and the advertised mean is statistically significant.

If the calculated test statistic falls in the rejection region (typically determined based on a chosen significance level, such as α = 0.05), we would reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis. This would indicate that there is evidence to suggest that the mean yield for the soybeans is indeed different from the advertised value.

Conversely, if the calculated test statistic falls in the non-rejection region, we would fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean yield is different from the advertised value.

In summary, the null and alternative hypotheses are set up to determine if there is a significant difference between the mean yield of the soybeans and the advertised value of 594 bushels per acre. The t-test can then be used to evaluate these hypotheses based on the sample data.

(1) The value of the function is f'(x) = a / (ax)²

Option A is the correct answer.

(2) The function f(x) = x² / (x - 1) has a local maximum at (0, 0).

Option B is the correct answer.

We have,

To find the derivative of the function f(x) = (bx + 1)/(ax), we can use the quotient rule.

Let's denote f'(x) as the derivative of f(x):

f(x) = (bx + 1)/(ax)

f'(x) = [(bx + 1)(a) - (ax)(b)] / (ax)²

= (abx + a - abx) / (ax)²

= a / (ax)²

Therefore, the derivative of f(x) is f'(x) = a / (ax)².

Now let's move on to the second question.

To determine the local maximum of the function f(x) = x² / (x - 1), we need to find the critical points by finding where the derivative is equal to zero or undefined.

First, let's find the derivative of f(x):

f(x) = x² / (x - 1)

f'(x) = (2x(x - 1) - x²) / (x - 1)²

= (2x² - 2x - x²)² (x - 1)²

= (x² - 2x) / (x - 1)^2

To find the critical points, we need to solve the equation f'(x) = 0:

(x² - 2x) / (x - 1)² = 0

This equation is satisfied when x² - 2x = 0.

Factoring out x:

x(x - 2) = 0

This equation is true when x = 0 or x = 2.

To determine if these points correspond to a local maximum, we can check the sign of the second derivative.

Let's find the second derivative:

[tex]f''(x) = [(x^2 - 2x)(2(x - 1)^2) - (x^2 - 2x)(2(x - 1)(1))] / (x - 1)^4\\= (2x^2 - 2x)(2(x - 1)^2 - 2(x - 1)) / (x - 1)^4\\= 2(x^2 - x)(x - 1) / (x - 1)^4\\= 2(x^2 - x) / (x - 1)^3[/tex]

Now let's evaluate f''(0):

f''(0) = 2(0² - 0) / (0 - 1)³

= 0 / (-1)³

= 0

Since f''(0) = 0, the point (0, 0) could potentially be a local maximum.

Now let's evaluate f''(2):

f''(2) = 2(2² - 2) / (2 - 1)³

= 2(4 - 2) / 1³

= 2(2) / 1

= 4

Since f''(2) = 4, the point (2, 4) corresponds to a local minimum.

Therefore, the function f(x) = x^2 / (x - 1) has a local maximum at point

(0, 0).

Thus,

(1) The value of the function is f'(x) = a / (ax)²

(2) The function f(x) = x² / (x - 1) has a local maximum at (0, 0).

The sequence of partial sums would require plotting each term S1, S2, S3, ..., S10 on a graph with the term number (1, 2, 3, ..., 10) on the x-axis and the partial sum on the y-axis. This would result in a line graph showing the trend of the partial sums.

To find the partial sums of the series ∑N=1[infinity]Cos(9n), we will calculate the sum for the first 10 terms.

S1 = cos(91)

S2 = cos(91) + cos(92)

S3 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93)

...

S10 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + ... + cos(910)

S1 = cos(91) ≈ 0.995

S2 = cos(91) + cos(92) ≈ -0.324

S3 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) ≈ -0.934

S4 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) ≈ -0.364

S5 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) + cos(95) ≈ 0.832

S6 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) + cos(95) + cos(96) ≈ 0.066

S7 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) + cos(95) + cos(96) + cos(97) ≈ -0.905

S8 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) + cos(95) + cos(96) + cos(97) + cos(98) ≈ -0.176

S9 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) + cos(95) + cos(96) + cos(97) + cos(98) + cos(99) ≈ 0.949

S10 = cos(91) + cos(92) + cos(93) + cos(94) + cos(95) + cos(96) + cos(97) + cos(98) + cos(99) + cos(9*10) ≈ -0.199

First, let's find the sin of 4π​/3. We have:4π​/3 = 2π/3 + π We can say that sin(4π​/3) is equal to sin(2π/3 + π) because 4π​/3 can be written as the sum of 2π/3 and π.Using the trigonometric identity sin(A+B) = sin(A)cos(B) + cos(A)sin(B), we can write: sin(2π/3 + π) = sin(2π/3)cos(π) + cos(2π/3)sin(π)

Note that sin(π) = 0 and cos(π) = -1, and we know that sin(2π/3) and cos(2π/3) are both constants that can be calculated. Therefore, we can simplify the expression as follows:

sin(2π/3 + π) = sin(2π/3)cos(π) + cos(2π/3)sin(π)= sin(2π/3)(-1) + cos(2π/3)(0)=-sin(2π/3)

Now we need to find the value of arcsin(-sin(2π/3)).

Note that the sine function is an odd function, which means that sin(-x) = -sin(x) for all values of x.

Therefore, we can say that -sin(2π/3) is the same as sin(-2π/3).arcsin(sin(x)) = x for all x in the range -π/2 ≤ x ≤ π/2.

Therefore, we can write: [tex]arcsin(sin(-2π/3)) = -2π/3 because -π/2 ≤ -2π/3 ≤ π/2[/tex].

To approximate the change in price when the quantity supplied is increased from 8,100 units to 8,600 units, we can use differentials.

The supply equation is given as p = s(x) = 0.3√x + 12, where x is the quantity supplied and p is the unit price in dollars.

To find the change in price, we need to calculate the differential of the price function with respect to the quantity supplied. The differential is given by:

To determine whether the series [tex]\(\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\cos(n\pi)}{n}\)[/tex] converges absolutely, converges conditionally, or diverges, we need to analyze the behavior of the individual terms.

Let's consider the absolute value of each term:

[tex]\(\left|\frac{\cos(n\pi)}{n}\right|\)[/tex]

For any integer value of [tex]\(n\), \(\cos(n\pi)\)[/tex] takes on values of [tex]\(-1\) or \(1\).[/tex] Thus, we have two possibilities:

1. When [tex]\(n\) is even, \(\cos(n\pi) = 1\)[/tex], and the term becomes [tex]\(\frac{1}{n}\).[/tex]

2. When [tex]\(n\) is odd, \(\cos(n\pi) = -1\)[/tex], and the term becomes [tex]\(-\frac{1}{n}\).[/tex]

Now, let's consider the series formed by the absolute values of the terms:

[tex]\(\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \left|\frac{\cos(n\pi)}{n}\right| = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n}\)[/tex]

This series is known as the harmonic series, which is a well-known series that diverges. The harmonic series does not converge because its terms do not approach zero. Therefore, the series [tex]\(\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \left|\frac{\cos(n\pi)}{n}\right|\)[/tex] diverges.

Since the absolute value of the terms diverges, we can conclude that the original series [tex]\(\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\cos(n\pi)}{n}\)[/tex] also diverges.

The probability that a randomly selected man's height is between 68 and 72 inches is 0.496 or 49.6%.

To answer the given questions, we need specific values for the mean and standard deviation. Since these values are not provided in the question, I will use placeholder values for demonstration purposes.

Let's assume that the mean height of American men is μ = 70 inches, and the standard deviation is σ = 3 inches.

a) To find the probability that a randomly selected man's height is more than 72 inches, we need to calculate the area under the normal distribution curve to the right of 72 inches.

Using a standard normal distribution table or a calculator, we can convert the height value to a z-score by subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation:

z = (72 - μ) / σ

z = (72 - 70) / 3

z = 2/3

Next, we can find the probability corresponding to a z-score of 2/3, which represents the area to the right of 72 inches. This can be obtained from the standard normal distribution table or calculated using a calculator. Let's assume the probability is P(z > 2/3) = 0.252.

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected man's height is more than 72 inches is 0.252 or 25.2%.

b) To find the probability that a randomly selected man's height is between 68 and 72 inches, we need to calculate the area under the normal distribution curve between these two values.

First, we convert the height values to z-scores:

z1 = (68 - μ) / σ

z1 = (68 - 70) / 3

z1 = -2/3

z2 = (72 - μ) / σ

z2 = (72 - 70) / 3

z2 = 2/3

Next, we find the probabilities corresponding to these z-scores. Let's assume P(z < -2/3) = 0.252 and P(z < 2/3) = 0.748.

To find the probability between 68 and 72 inches, we subtract the probability corresponding to z = -2/3 from the probability corresponding to z = 2/3:

P(-2/3 < z < 2/3) = P(z < 2/3) - P(z < -2/3)

P(-2/3 < z < 2/3) = 0.748 - 0.252

P(-2/3 < z < 2/3) = 0.496

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected man's height is between 68 and 72 inches is 0.496 or 49.6%.

The probability of drawing two red marbles is: P(two red marbles) = P(red) × P(red) = (3/4) × (3/4) = 9/16

The probability of drawing a white marble is: P(white marble) = (1/4)

Then, the probability of drawing four red marbles with replacement from the jar is:

P(four red marbles) = P(red) × P(red) × P(red) × P(red) = (3/4) × (3/4) × (3/4) × (3/4) = 81/256.

In order to find the probability that the next marble drawn will not be red given that the first four marbles drawn are red, we can use conditional probability formula as follows:

P(not red | four reds) = P(not red and four reds)/P(four reds)

Since the next marble drawn must not be red, there is only 1 white marble and 3 red marbles left in the jar.

∴ the probability of drawing a white marble given that the first four marbles are red is:

P(not red and four reds) = P(white marble) = 1/4

The probability that the next marble drawn will not be red given that the first four marbles drawn are red is:

P(not red | four reds) = P(not red and four reds)/P(four reds) = (1/4) / (81/256) = 64/243 = 2/3.

The combustion is 32% efficient (i.e., 32% of the energy content of the natural gas is converted into usable energy.)

Natural gas leaks 2.2% during the extraction. Hence, 1 - 0.022 = 0.978 of natural gas can be transported. Then, the energy required for transport is given as 0.11 MJ for each MJ of natural gas that is transported. Hence, the energy that can be transported after extraction and transport can be given as:0.978 x (1 - 0.11) = 0.8682 MJ

The combustion is 32% efficient. Hence, the energy that can be generated from 0.8682 MJ is:0.8682 × 0.32 = 0.2781 MJThe energy that is required to generate 1.3 MJ can be given as:1.3 - 0.2781 = 1.0219 MJ
