A box with a rectangular base and open top must have a volume of 128 f t 3 . The length of the base is twice the width of base. The base needs to be stronger than the sides, so it costs more. The base costs $9 per f t 2 , while the sides only cost $6 per f t 2 . We wish to find the dimensions of the box that minimize the cost of material used.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Width = 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Height = 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Length = 8ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Volume = 128ft^3[/tex]

[tex]L = 2W[/tex]

[tex]Base\ Cost = \$9/ft^2[/tex]

[tex]Sides\ Cost = \$6/ft^2[/tex]

Required

The dimension that minimizes the cost

The volume is:

[tex]Volume = LWH[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]128 = LWH[/tex]

Substitute [tex]L = 2W[/tex]

[tex]128 = 2W * WH[/tex]

[tex]128 = 2W^2H[/tex]

Make H the subject

[tex]H = \frac{128}{2W^2}[/tex]

[tex]H = \frac{64}{W^2}[/tex]

The surface area is:

Area = Area of Bottom + Area of Sides

So, we have:

[tex]A = LW + 2(WH + LH)[/tex]

The cost is:

[tex]Cost = 9 * LW + 6 * 2(WH + LH)[/tex]

[tex]Cost = 9 * LW + 12(WH + LH)[/tex]

[tex]Cost = 9 * LW + 12H(W + L)[/tex]

Substitute: [tex]H = \frac{64}{W^2}[/tex] and [tex]L = 2W[/tex]

[tex]Cost =9*2W*W + 12 * \frac{64}{W^2}(W + 2W)[/tex]

[tex]Cost =18W^2 + \frac{768}{W^2}*3W[/tex]

[tex]Cost =18W^2 + \frac{2304}{W}[/tex]

To minimize the cost, we differentiate

[tex]C' =2*18W + -1 * 2304W^{-2}[/tex]

Then set to 0

[tex]2*18W + -1 * 2304W^{-2} =0[/tex]

[tex]36W - 2304W^{-2} =0[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]36W = 2304W^{-2}[/tex]

Divide both sides by W

[tex]36 = 2304W^{-3}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]36 = \frac{2304}{W^3}[/tex]

Solve for [tex]W^3[/tex]

[tex]W^3 = \frac{2304}{36}[/tex]

[tex]W^3 = 64[/tex]

Take cube roots

[tex]W = 4[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]L = 2W[/tex]

[tex]L = 2 * 4[/tex]

[tex]L = 8[/tex]

[tex]H = \frac{64}{W^2}[/tex]

[tex]H = \frac{64}{4^2}[/tex]

[tex]H = \frac{64}{16}[/tex]

[tex]H = 4[/tex]

Hence, the dimension that minimizes the cost is:

[tex]Width = 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Height = 4ft[/tex]

[tex]Length = 8ft[/tex]

write the equation for a parabola with a focus at (-3,-5) and a directrix at x=-7

Answers

Answer:

hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

equation for a parabola is:

What is parabola?

The parabola is the locus of points in that plane that are equidistant from both the directrix and the focus.

Given: focus= (3,-5), directrix at x =-7.

To find equation of parabola we will use distance formula,

√(x+7)²=√(x+3)² + (y+5)²

(x+7)²=(x+3)² + (y+5)²

x²+14x+49= x²+9+6x + (y+5)²

8x + 40 = (y+5)²

x= (y+5)²/8 -5

Hence, the equation of parabola is x= (y+5)²/8 -5

The X and Y coordinates (in feet) for station Shore are 2058.97 and 6980.06, respectively, and those for station Rock are 1408.03 and 6980.06, respectively. What are the azimuth, bearing, and length of the line connecting station Shore to station Rock

Answers

Answer:

Hence, the azimuth, bearing, and length of the line connecting station Shore to station Rock are [tex]270^{\circ},90^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]650.94[/tex] feet.

Given :

The shore station point [tex](X_1,Y_1)[/tex] in feet,

        [tex](X_1,Y_1)=(2058.97, 6980.06)[/tex]

The Rock station point [tex](X_2,Y_2)[/tex] in feet

       [tex](X_2,Y_2)=(1408.03,6980.06)[/tex]

From the figure

     [tex]x=2058.97-1408.03=650.94[/tex] feet

    [tex]y=6980.06-6980.06=0\\[/tex] feet

Length of the line [tex]L=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex]

                           [tex]\Rightarrow L=\sqrt{(650.94)^2+0}=650.94[/tex]

                            [tex]\Rightarrow L=650.94[/tex] feet

[tex]\because[/tex] [tex]\tan \theta=\frac{y}{x}=\frac{0}{x}=0[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \theta=\tan^{-1}(0)=0[/tex]

Azimuth of line[tex]=270^{\circ}+\theta[/tex]

                       [tex]=270^{\circ}+0[/tex]

                      [tex]=270^{\circ}[/tex]

A system has two identical components, and requires both the components for system success. If one component fails, the other cannot fail while the failed component is being repaired. The component failure rates and repair rates are 0.1 failures/year and 365 repairs/year respectively. If a similar component is carried as a spare with an average installation time of 1 hour, evaluate the probability of failure, frequency of failure and the average down time of the system.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

The failure rate = 0.1 failure/year

i.e.  = [tex]\dfrac{0.1}{365\times 24}= 0.00001 \ failure /hour[/tex]

The repair rate = 365 repair/year, if we convert this to repair/hour; we get:

[tex]= \dfrac{365}{365\times 24} \\ \\ = 0.04 \ repair/ hour[/tex]

Time (t) = 1 hour

P(failure) = 1 - R  ; if (t=1)

where:

[tex]Reliability (R ) = e^{-\lambda t}(1+ \lambda t) \\ \\ = e^{-0.00001*1}(1+0.00001 *1) \\ \\ \simeq 0.9999[/tex]

P (failure) = 1 - R  

= 1 - 0.9999

= 0.0001

≅ 0

The frequency meantime of failure = [tex]\dfrac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{0.00001}[/tex]

= 100000

The average downtime of repair for the system = [tex]\dfrac{1}{\mu}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{1}{0.04}[/tex]

Please give brainliest thank you

[tex]\boxed{\underline{\bf \: ANSWER}}[/tex]

The quotient when 17 less than p is divided by 8.

Well, let's first take 17 less than p. That'll be :-

[tex] \sf \: p - 17[/tex]

Note :- 'p' comes first as the question has the words - less than p.

Now, we have the remaining -> 'is divided by 8'.

The equation will become :-

[tex] \sf \:( p - 17) \div 8[/tex]

Note :- We have put the bracket because they have asked the quotient. To form a quotient you need 2 numbers - a divisor & a dividend. Hence, 2 numbers -> (p - 17) & 8.

So, Option D [tex]\boxed{\underline{\bf \: (p-17)÷8}}[/tex] is the correct answer.

Answer:

Q 1)

a) No of sheep = 480

b) 8 : 11

c) 11 : 3

Q 2)

Each person will receive: $360,000, $270,000 and $180,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of sheep to cattle = 8 : 3

Let the number of sheep be 8x

And number of cattle be 3x

a)

No of cattle = 180 (Given)

Therefore,

3x = 180

x = 180/3

x = 60

Therefore, 8x = 8*60 = 480

No of sheep = 480

b)

Total animals = 180 + 480 = 660

Ratio of sheep to the total number of animals

= 480 : 660

= 8 : 11

c)

Ratio of total animals to the number of cattle

= 660 : 180

= 11 : 3

Q 2) Let each person will receive 4x, 3x and 2x dollars.

Therefore,

4x + 3x + 2x = 810,000

9x = 810000

x = 810000/9

x = 90,000

Therefore,

4x = 4*90,000 = $360,000

3x = 3*90,000 = $270,000

2x = 2*90,000 = $180,000

So, each person will receive $360,000, $270,000 and $180,000.
