an open top box with a square base and a volume of 4m^3 is to be constructed what should the dimensions of the box be to minimize the surface area of the box?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Dimensions of the box:

x =  1,26  ( the side of the square base )

h = 2,52   the heigh of the cube

Step-by-step explanation:

V(b)  = x² *h      x is the side of the square base, and h the heigh of the cube

The surface area of such cube is:

Area of the base   A(b)  = x²

Lateral area is  4*x*h

A(c) = x²  +  4*x*h

Now   x² * h  = v = 4 m³       ⇒  h = 4/x²   and

A(x)   =  x²   +  4/x

Tacking derivatives on both side of the equation:

A´(x)  =  2*x - 4/x²

A´(x) = 0       2*x  - 4/x²  =  0        ⇒   2*x³  -  4   = 0

x³  = 2

x  = 1,26 m

And  h = 4/(1,26)²        ⇒     h  =  2,52 m

How do we know the value of  x  =  1,26 is for a minimum value of A(x)

We find the second derivative of  A(x)

A´´(x)  =  2  -  (-4*2*x/x⁴)

A´´(x)  =  2  + 8/x³       is positive  A´´(x)  >  0

Then function A(x) has a minimum value at x = 1,26

g E. (i). An oil company conducts a geological study that indicates that an exploratory oil well should have a 20% chance of striking oil. What is the probability that the first strike comes on the third well drilled

Answers

Answer:

0.128

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Probability of striking oil = p = 20% = 0.2

Striking occurs on the 3rd well drilled : x = 3

Hence ;

P(x = 3) =?

Using a geometric probability function :

p(x = x) = (1 - p)^(x - 1) * p

P(x = 3) = (1 - 0.2)^(3 - 1) * (0.2)

P(x = 3) = 0.8^2 * 0.2

P(x = 3) = 0.64 * 0.2

The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}}AB is M(-6, -4)M(−6,−4). If the coordinates of AA are (-4, -3)(−4,−3), what are the coordinates of BB?​

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of B is (-8,-5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of line AB is M. The coordinate of M is (-6,-4).

The coordinates of A is (-4,-3)

We need to find the mid point of B.

If M(x,y) is the midpoint of the coordinates (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂). The mid point theorem is used as follows :

[tex]M(x,y)=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Let the mid point of B is (x₂,y₂). Put (x,y) = (-6,-4), (x₁,y₁) = (-4,-3).

[tex](-6,-4)=(\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2},\dfrac{-3+y_2}{2})\\\\\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2}=-6\ \text{and}\ \dfrac{-3+y_2}{2}=-4\\\\-4+x_2=-12\ \text{and}\ -3+y_2=-8\\\\x_2=-12+4\ \text{and}\ y_2=-8+3\\\\x_2=-8\ \text{and}\ y_2=-5[/tex]

So, the coordinates of B is (-8,-5).

The coordinates of B are (-8, -5).

Given that,

The midpoint of AB is M(-6, -4). If the coordinates of A is (4,-2),

We have to determine,

The coordinates of B.

According to the question,

The midpoint of line AB is M. The coordinate of M is (-6,-4).

And the coordinates of A is (-4,-3)

If M(x, y) is the midpoint of the coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). The midpoint theorem is used as follows :

[tex]M(x, y) = ( \dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Let the midpoint of B be (x₂, y₂).

M (x, y) = (-6,-4), and (x₁, y₁) = (-4,-3).

[tex]M(-6, -4) = ( \dfrac{-4+x_2}{2}, \dfrac{-3+y_2}{2})\\\\[/tex]

Solving the equation for the co-ordinate B.

[tex]\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2} = -6\\\\-4 + x_2 = -6 \times 2\\\\-4 + x_2 = -12\\\\x_2 = -12+4\\\\x_2 = -8[/tex]

And,

[tex]\dfrac{-3+y_2}{2} = -4\\\\-3 + y_2 = -4 \times 2\\\\-3 + y_2 = -8\\\\y_2 = -8 + 3\\\\y_2 = -5[/tex]

Hence, The required coordinates of B are (-8, -5).

Why are whole numbers rational numbers? Use 15 as an example.

Answers

Answer:

Every whole number n can be written as a fraction of integers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every whole number n can be written as a fraction of integers: x=x/1.

If we use 15 as an example, it would be 15 = 15/1. 15/1 is 15.

So whole numbers are rational

Whole numbers are rational numbers because all whole numbers can be expressed in the form a/b. Hence, 15 can be expressed as a rational fraction thus 15/1

When a number can be expressed in the form a/b ; such that the value of the denominator, b ≠ 0 ; then the number is said to be rational.

Whole numbers are positive integer values and as such, they are not decimals.

Every whole number can be expressed such that the denominator is 1 ; hence, they can be expressed in the form a/b.

15 as a whole number can be rewritten as 15/1. Hence, all whole numbers are rational.

b. What was the maximum height of the lava?
c. After how many seconds did the maximum height occur?

Answers

Answer:

a)Tt = 21,41 s

b) y(max) = 1873 ft

c)  t = 10,70 s

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that this is a case of vertical shooting then:

a) Vf  = V₀  -  g*t

Vf = 0         -g*t = -V₀

t  =  V₀ /g         t  =  350 ft/s / 32,7 ft/s²

t  =  10,70 s     time for lava to reach y maximum

a) Then  Tt = 2*10,7     Tt = 21,41 s

Lava was in the air for  Tt = 21,41 s

b) y = y₀ + v₀*t - (1/2 )*g*t²

for y = ymax  we get:

y(max)  = 0 + 350*10,70 - 0,5* 32,7* ( 10,70)²

y(max)  =  3745  - 1872

The point R(-3,a,-1) is the midpoint of the line segment jointing the points P(1,2,b)
and Q(c,-7,4)
Find the values of:
a=
b=
C=

Answers

Answer:

The values are:

a = -5/2

b = -6

c = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P = (x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b)  

Q =  (x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4)  

As the point R(-3, a, -1) is the midpoint of the line segment jointing the points P(1,2,b)  and Q(c,-7,4), so

m = R = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1)

Using the mid-point formula

[tex]m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

given

(x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b) = P

(x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4) = Q

m = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1) = R

substituting the values in the mid-point formula

[tex]m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(x,\:y,\:z\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

as (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1), so

[tex]\left(-3,\:a,\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

so solving 'c'

-3 = (1+c) / (2)

-3 × 2 = 1+c

1+c = -6

c = -6 - 1

c = -7

solving 'a'

a = (2+(-7)) / 2

2a = 2-7

2a = -5

a = -5/2

solving b

-1 = (b+4) / 2

-2 = b+4

b+4 = -2

b = -2-4

b = -6

Thus, the values are:

a = -5/2

b = -6

c = -7

Verification:

[tex]\left(x,\:y,\:z\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-3,\:a,\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

put a = -5/2, b = -6, c = -7

[tex]\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:-\frac{5}{2},\:\frac{\left(-6\right)+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{-6}{2},\:-\frac{5}{2},\:\frac{-2}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)[/tex]

A biology student wants to determine if using a fertilizer would help promote the growth of new babies in spider plants. The student has access to 90 baby spider plants of three varieties: green, variegated, and curly. There are 30 plants of each variety. They all are potted in the same amount and type of soil, given the same amount of water, and exposed to the same amount of light. The numbers 1–30 are written on slips of paper, placed in a hat, and mixed thoroughly. A plant is selected and a slip of paper is drawn. If the slip has the numbers 1–15, then the plant will receive fertilizer. If the slip has the numbers 16–30, the plant will not receive fertilizer. A green spider plant is selected and a slip of paper is drawn. This plant is placed in the treatment group indicated by the number, and the slip is not put back in the bag. The slips are mixed again, the next green spider plant is selected, and a slip is drawn. The plant is placed in the treatment group indicated by the number. This procedure is repeated until all 30 green spider plants are assigned to treatments. The numbered slips are placed back in the bag and this procedure is repeated for the remaining types of spider plants. After one year, the shoots will be counted for each plant.

Which of the following best describes the design for this experiment?

observational study
matched pairs design

Answers

Answer:

Randomized block design

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can see the following:

- There are 30 plants of each variety. This means that they are divided into variety subgroups which we will call blocks.

- Now, we are told each plant in each block all are potted in the same amount and type of soil, given the same amount of water, and exposed to the same amount of light. This means that each plant in each block is assigned a treatment condition.

- The procedure is repeated by subjecting each plant one after the other in teach Block to different treatments and this will reduce variability.

Looking at all the statements above, it is clear that this is a randomized block design because a randomized block design is when the experimenter/researcher divides members/participants into subgroups called blocks in a manner that the variability within the blocks is less than the variability between the blocks. Thereafter, the participants within each block will now be randomly assigned to treatment conditions.

The best describe about the design for this experiment is random block design.

A randomized block design is an experimental design where the experimental units are in groups called blocks. The treatments are randomly allocated to the experimental units inside each block.
