A shipping company offers various sized shipping boxes to its customers. Some of these boxes are cube-shaped, with equal height,

width, and depth. As part of an upcoming sales promotion, the company will offer two cube-shaped boxes for the price of one.
a. Write an expression to represent the total volume of two different sized boxes as a sum of cubes if one of the boxes has sides with a length of 1 foot and the other has sides with a length of x feet.
b. Factor the sum of cubes.
c. Calculate the total volume of the two boxes if x = 3 feet.

A cube shaped box of side length equal to m foot has volume 
m*m*m= m^{3}  foot cubed.

a.
Let v1 be the volume of the box with side length 1 ft. 
and v2 be the volume of the box with side length x ft.

V1=1^{3}=1 (foot cubed)
V2=x^{3} (foot cubed)

Vtotal=V1+V2=1+x^{3} feet cubed

b. 

by the "sum of cubes" identity:

x^{3}+1=(x+1)( x^{2} -x+1),

this identity can be derived by dividing x^{3}+1 by (x+1), by long division.

c. Vtotal when x=3 feet is:

          Vtotal=V1+V2=1+3^{3}=1+27=28   (feet cubed)

Ket [755]

Answer:

0.9115 is the proportion of paint cans that contain less than 5.54 ml of the dye.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 5 ml

Standard Deviation, σ = 0.4 ml

We are given that the distribution of amount of dye dispensed is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(paint cans contain less than 5.54 ml of the dye)

P( x < 5.54) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{5.54 - 5}{0.4}) = P(z < 1.35)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x < 5.54) =0.9115 = 91.15\%

0.9115 is the proportion of paint cans that contain less than 5.54 ml of the dye.

Find the missing dimension of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The missing dimension, radius = 6.00 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following things:

Height of cylinder, h  = 15 m

Radius of cylinder, r = z m (Labelled as z)

Volume of cylinder, V = 1696.5\ m^{3}

Please refer to the image attached for the dimensions of cylinder as given.

We know that the volume of a cylinder can be given as:

V = \pi r^{2} h

Where r is the radius of cylinder

h is the height of cylinder

Putting the values of V, r \text{ and } h:

1696.5 = \pi z^{2} \times 15\\\Rightarrow z^{2} = 36.01\\\Rightarrow z = 6.00\ m

Hence, The missing dimension, radius = 6.00 m

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

a) For this case we define the random variable as X ="waiting time during peak hours" and we know that this distribution follows an uniform distribution:

X \sim Unif(a=0,b=8)

Where a and b represent the limits of the distribution.

b) f(x) = \frac{1}{8}= 0.125, a\leq x \leq b

And the height for this case would be 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

For this case we define the random variable as X ="waiting time during peak hours" and we know that this distribution follows an uniform distribution:

X \sim Unif(a=0,b=8)

Where a and b represent the limits of the distribution.

Part b

For this case the density function would be given by:

f(x) = \frac{1}{8}= 0.125, a\leq x \leq b

And the height for this case would be 0.125

And f(x)= 0  for other case.

The cumulative distribution function would be given by:

F(x) = 0, x

F(x) = \frac{x-a}{b-a}= \frac{x}{8}, 0\leq x < 8

F(x) = 1, x\geq 8
