The length, width and height of the rectangular prism is ∛10

<h3>How to determine the dimensions?</h3>

The volume is given as:

Volume, V = 10m^3

For a minimised volume, we have:

Length = Width = Height

This means that:

V = L^3

So, we have:

L^3 = 10

Take the cube root of both sides

L = ∛10

Hence, the length, width and height of the rectangular prism is ∛10

A cylinder with a radius of 1 cm and a height of 21 cm has the same volume as a cone with a height of 7 cm. What is the radius o

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a cylinder:

$V=\pi r^2H$

r - radius

H - height

We have r = 1cm and H = 21cm. Substitute:

$V=\pi(1^2)(21)=21\pi\ cm^3$

The formula of a cone:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2H$

r - radius

H - height

We have V = 21π cm³ and H = 7cm. Substitute:

$\dfrac{1}{3}\pi(r^2)(7)=21\pi$ <em>divide both sides by π</em>

$\dfrac{1}{3}(7)(r^2)=21$ <em>divide both sides by 7</em>

$\dfrac{1}{3}r^2=3$ <em>multiply both sides by 3</em>

$r^2=9\to r=\sqrt9\\\\r=3\ cm$

The number of failures of a testing instrument from contamination particles on the product is a Poisson random variable with a m

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 0.1353

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mean of failures = 0.025 per hour.

Then for 8 hours , the mean of failures = $\lambda=8\times0.25=2$ per eight hours.

Let X be the number of failures.

The formula to calculate the Poisson distribution is given by :_

$P(X=x)=\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^x}{x!}$

Now, the probability that the instrument does not fail in an 8-hour shift :-

$P(X=0)=\dfrac{e^{-2}2^0}{0!}=0.1353352\approx0.1353$

Hence, the the probability that the instrument does not fail in an 8-hour shift = 0.1353
