The maximum values of a₁, a₂, a₃, a₄ and h to make the stack in equilibrium are; a₁_max = L/2; a₂_max = L/4; a₃_max = - L/6; a₄_max = -L/8; h = 25L/24

<h3>What is the maximum width?</h3>

The system is in equilibrium and length of each brick = L

a) For brick 1;

Due to the fact that the center of gravity lies to the right of L/2,

Then we can say that the maximum value of a₁ = L/2

b) For brick 2;

Since the center of gravity lies to the right of L/2, then we can say that;

The maximum value of a₂ = ¹/₂a₁_max

Thus, the maximum value of a₂ = L/4

c) For brick 3;

Taking the moment of force, the maximum value of a₃ is;

a₃_max =  [(-¹/₂mL) + 2m(0)]/(2m +m)

a₃_max = - L/6

d) For the brick 4;

Taking the moment of force, the maximum value of a₄ is;

a₄ = [3(0) m + m(-L/2)]/(3m + m)

a₄_max = -L/8

e) The value of h = |a1| + |a2| +|a3| + |a4|

h = L/2 + L/4 + L/6 + L/8

h = ((12 + 6 + 4 + 3)/24)L

h = 25L/24

Answer:

B)x^3

Explanation:

Given,

(x^8)/(x^2)=y^12

We can simplify the following by bringing the (x^2) above the division line which makes the power negative.

(x^8)*(x^-2)=y^12

or,(x^(8-2))=y^12

or,x^6=y^12 .........(1)

The question is, (y^8)/(y^2)=

Simplifying the question,

(y^(8-2))

or,y^6

Now,from ...(1),

x^6=y^12

or,(x^3)^2=(y^6)^2

Removing the squares,

x^3=y^6

Thus,we get the answer of the question,

(y^8)/(y^2)=y^6=x^3

the table below shows the ages of houses to the nearest year in a neighborhood. using the age of the houses as the random variab
Sedaia [141]

Probability distributions are used to represent data and their probabilities

The table entry is given as:

<u>Age of House      Number of Houses</u>

1                                         15

2                                        20

3                                         25

4                                        30

Start by calculating the probability of selecting a house that has a certain age.

This is calculated as:

Pr =\frac{Number\ of\ house}{Total\ number\ of\ house}

So, we have:

P(1) = \frac{15}{90} = 0.17

P(2) = \frac{20}{90} = 0.22

P(3) = \frac{25}{90} = 0.28

P(4) = \frac{30}{90} = 0.33

This means that the graph that represents the probability distribution must show that the probability of 1 is 0.17; 2 is 0.22; 3 is 0.28; 4 is 0.33.
