A group of engineers is building a parabolic satellite dish whose shape will be formed by rotating the curve y=ax 2 about the y-

axis. If the dish is to have a 8-foot diameter and a maximum depth of 2 feet, find the value of a and the surface area (in square feet) of the dish. (Round the surface area to two decimal places.) What is the area and surface area?

Answer:

a = \frac{1}{2}. Surface Area = \frac{4}{3}ft^{2}. and area of the Dish = \frac{4}{3}ft^{2}+pi4^{2} = \frac{4}{3}ft^{2}+50.27=51.6ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Constant. y(x) = ax^{2} that is the curve that we need to rotate around the y axis to get the parabola with diameter of 8 feet and 2 meter depth that statement is translated in mathematics as x = -4 to 4 and y = 0 to 2.

y max = 2, x max = 4 setting up a equation with a unknown gives

2=a4 and  a = \frac{1}{2}.

so we have now.

y(x) = \frac{1}{2}x^{2} (Done with solving for a Constant).

(2) Surface Area.

Setting Up surface integral.

(i) range in x = 0 to 4.

(ii) range in y = 0 to 2.

integral is.

Integral(0-2)[{integral[(0-4)\frac{1}{32}x^{2}]}]dy

Evaluating this integral gives. \frac{4}{3}ft^{2}.

and area is surface area + area of the circle with 8ft diameter.

= \frac{4}{3}ft^{2}+pi4^{2} = \frac{4}{3}ft^{2}+50.27=51.6ft^{2}...

Note the Difference between area and aurface area.!

Answer:

a) 0.5.

b) 0.8413

c) 0.8413

d) 0.6826

e) 0.9332

f) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 6, \sigma = 0.2

(a) P(x > 6) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 6. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6-6}{0.2}

Z = 0

Z = 0 has a pvalue of 0.5.

1 - 0.5 = 0.5.

(b) P(x < 6.2)=

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

(c) P(x ≤ 6.2) =

In the normal distribution, the probability of an exact value, for example, P(X = 6.2), is always zero, which means that P(x ≤ 6.2) = P(x < 6.2) = 0.8413.

(d) P(5.8 < x < 6.2) =

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X  5.8.

X = 6.2

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

X = 5.8

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a pvalue of 0.1587

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826

(e) P(x > 5.7) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.7.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

1 - 0.0668 = 0.9332

(f) P(x > 5) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5-6}{0.2}

Z = -5

Z = -5 has a pvalue of 0.

1 - 0 = 1

For the inverse variation equation xy = k, what is the constant of variation, k, when x = 7 and y = 3? three-sevenths seven-thir
vova2212 [387]

The value of the constant k when the value of x and y is 7 and 3 respectively in the equation xy=k is 21.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

The value of the constant k when the value of x and y is 7 and 3 respectively in the equation xy=k can be written as,

xy=k\\\\(7) \times (3 ) =k\\\\k= 21

Hence, the value of the constant k when the value of x and y is 7 and 3 respectively in the equation xy=k is 21.

olganol [36]

Answer: The number of letters that must be engraved for the costs to be the same is 125.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

0.4e+10+15=0.20e+5+25

We need to find the number of letters.

0.4e+25=0.2e+30\\\\0.4e-0.2e=30-25\\\\0.2e=25\\\\e=\dfrac{25}{0.2}\\\\e=125

Hence, the number of letters that must be engraved for the costs to be the same is 125.
