The optimum shape of such a box is half a cube. The corresponding cube will have a volume of 2×256 ft³ = 512 ft³ = (8 ft)³. Such a box has a square base that is 8 ft on a side. If the height is half that of the cube, it will be 4 ft.
The dimensions of your box will be 8 ft square by 4 ft high.
_____
If the base dimension is x ft, the area (quantity of material) is
... a = x² + 4x(256/x²)
... a = x² + 1024x⁻¹
Then the derivative of area with respect to x is
... a' = 2x -1024x⁻²
Setting this derivative to zero and solving for x gives the value of x for minimum area.
... 0 = 2x -1024/x²
... 512 = x³
... x = 8 . . . . . . . . same as above.
The expression C.
cubic
represents the bacterium's volume.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The E. Coli bacterium is in the shape of a cylinder.
The volume of a cylinder is given by multiplying π with the square of the radius (r²) and the height of the cylinder.
The volume of a cylinder, 
In the given diagram, E. Coli has a radius of 1
and a height of 0.5
.
Step 2:
By substituting the values in the equation, we get
The volume of the E. Coli bacterium
cubic
.
This is option C.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given:
represent the families owned at least one DVD player
represent the total number of families
represent the estimated proportion of families owned at least one DVD player
In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by
and
. And the critical value would be given by:
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
If we replace the values obtained we got:
The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)
Answer:
A
The first option is the correct!
They are parallel so they never connect! :)
