A shipping company must design a closed rectangular shipping crate with a square base. The volume is 2880ft3. The material for the top and sides costs $3 per square foot and the material for the bottom costs $7 per square foot. Find the dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material.

Answers

Answer 1

The dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material are 10, 10, and 29.

How to compute the dimension?

The volume will be:

= Length × Width × Height

= lwh

For the square base, w = l

2880 = w²h

The cost function will be:

C = 12wl + 4wh + 4lh

Put l = w.

C = 12w² + 8wh

C = 12w² + 8w(2880/w²)

C = 12w² + 23040/w

Differentiate with respect to w

C'(w) = 0

24w = 23040/w²

24w³ = 23040

w³ = 960

w = 10 approximately

The length is 16 as well as they are the same. The height will be:

= 2880/w²

= 2880/10²

= 28.8 = 29

Therefore, the dimensions are 10, 10, and 29.

if one adult is randomly chosen from the group, what is the probability that the adult does not use a cell phone app for shopping and is at least 40 years old?

Answers

Answer:

1/100

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 1/100 because we don't know how many people are in the group but do know that only 1 person has been taken from the group and the probability will be 1 out of how many people are in the group so we just put 100 there as we don't know how many people are in the group.

수 to the circle.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

to be a tangent, it would have to have a 90° angle with the radius (12).

and that would make the triangle ABCenter of the circle a right-angled triangle.

and then Pythagoras must apply :

c² = a² + b²

with c being the Hypotenuse (the baseline opposite of the 90° angle). in our case the 20-line.

so,

20² = 12² + 16²

400 = 144 + 256 = 400

yes, it is confirmed, because the Pythagoras principle applies, it is a right-angled triangle, and therefore AB is indeed a tangent.

Answer:

the line AB is tangent to the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

we have :

16² + 12² = 256 +144 = 400

On the other hand:

20² = 400

Then

16² + 12² = 20²

Then

According to the Pythagorean theorem:

The line AB is perpendicular to the radius of the circle

Which means the line AB is tangent to the circle.

If only x is under the sqrt and - 6 is NOT under the sqrt, then:

0 <= x <= infinity is the correct answer.

You can look at the equation and or graph to determine the domain of a function. The domain is all the x's that may go into the equation or all the x's on the graph of the function. Inside of a squareroot symbol the number inside there must be positive. While considering the equation, only x's that keep that inside positive can be used.

The sum of two numbers is 21. Three times the larger is equal to four times the smaller.
Find them.

Answers

Answer x = 12 and y = 9
Step by step
First identify the equations
The sum of two numbers is 21
x + y = 21
Change to y intercept for ease of math
y = 21 - x ( call this equation a)
Three times the larger is equal to four times the smaller
3x = 4y (call this equation b)
Now substitute the value of y = 21 -x into equation b
3x = 4(21-x)
Distribute
3x = 84 - 4x
Now we want to isolate x by adding 4x to each side
3x + 4x = 84 -4x + 4x
Combine like terms
7x = 84
Now solve for x by dividing both sides by 7
x = 12

Now to find y
Using equation a from above
y = 21 - x
Substitute our x value of 12 into equation
y = 21 - 12
solve for y
y = 9
Now check your work
x = 12 and y = 9
The sum of two numbers is 21
12 + 9 = 21

Three times the larger (x) is equal to four times the smaller (y)
3x12 = 4x9

What is the relationship between the lines determined by the following two equations?

They are the same line.


neither parallel nor perpendicular

parallel

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

to determine the relationship between these two lines you have to find the slope.

=> if they have the same slope ,then they are parallel.

=> if they have negative inverse slope relative to each other ,then they are perpendicular.

=> if the slope for both equations is neither of the above cases ,then the two equations are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

so if we divide the first equation by 3 which is the commen factor for the whole equation and arrange it in the form y=mx +b it would give us y =5x +4. and since the two have the same slope which is 5 ,then we can conclude they are parallel lines.

Answers

Using the Empirical Rule, it is found that 49.85% of buyers paid between $150,000 and $154,800.

What does the Empirical Rule state?

It states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of  the mean.Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Considering the given mean and standard deviation, the interval between $150,000 and $154,800 corresponds to the interval between the mean and 3 standard deviations above the mean.

The normal distribution is symmetric(50% above the mean, 50% below), hence the percentage corresponding to this interval is:

Multiplying both sides by 156 cancels on the right

156 × (52/169) = (X/156) × 156

Answers

Answer:

We are 90% confident that the true mean lies between 8..6563 and     9.9437  

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of your estimate plus and minus the range of that estimate constitutes a confidence interval. Within a specific level of confidence, this is the range of values you anticipate your estimate to fall within if you repeat the test. Confidence is another word for probability.

mean (x) = 9.3                        

standard deviation (s) = 2                        

sample size (n) = 28                        

T- Distribution:

90% Confidence Interval ==> α = 0.1

critical value, t =  1.703 ( t-table)

standard error, SE = s/√n = 2 /√28 = 0.3780

margin of error, E = t × SE= 1.703 × 0.3780 = 0.6437

Confidence Interval: x ± E = 9.3 ± 0.6437

lower limit: x - E = 9.3 - 0.6437 = 8.6563    

upper limit: x + E = 9.3 + 0.6437 = 9.9437    

Confidence Interval: 8.6563 < µ < 9.9437

Z - Distribution:

Formula: Confidence Interval = x ± z (s/√n)

Sample Mean = s/√n = 2/√28 = 2/5.29 = 0.3781

z = 1.645 (from z - table)

From formula, z (s/√n): 0.3781 x 1.645 = 0.620 (rounded)

x ± 0.62
