Jasmine wants to make a path from one corner of her yard to the other as shown. the path will be 3 feet wide. what is the area of the path?

Suppose that f(0) = −3 and f '(x) ≤ 8 for all values of x. how large can f(4) possibly be? solution we are given that f is differentiable (and therefore continuous) everywhere. in particular, we can apply the mean value theorem on the interval [0, 4] . there exists a number c such that

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.

An engineer scale model shows a building that is 3 inches tall. if the scale is 1 inch = 600 feet, how tall is the actual building?
