The answer is <u>5.25</u>

First, you need to list all of the numbers from least to greatest. Then, you remove the sides (first 3.9 and 6.2 being the least and the greatest numbers). You then have 4.9 and 5.6 so you need to add them together (getting 10.6) and divide your answer by 2 (getting 5.25).

Hope I helped and good luck :)

Help please: A bus and a train leave a station at the same time, t = 0. The graph shows the bus's distance to the next station o

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

y = (5/2)x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bus and train are both at the station at time 0, the y-intercept for the new equation is 20. That is one point on the new graph: (0,20) The question said that the train travels faster, that means it spends less time getting to the next station. The existing graph shows the bus got to the next station in 10 minutes, so maybe the train got there in 8 minutes. So another point on the graph is (8,0) We can use a slope formula to calculate the slope of a new line. Or just count squares on the graph (se image) to find the slope. Slope tells how steep a line is, whether the line is going up or down, but also the slope is like directions how to get from one point to another point on the line.

All you need to write an equation is the slope, m and the y-intercept, b and fill those two numbers into the formula y=mx+b Here slope is 5/2 and y-intercept is 20. So you get

y=(5/2)x +20

A cylinder shaped can needs to be constructed to hold 600 cubic centimeters of soup. The material for the sides of the can costs

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

the dimensions that minimize the cost of the cylinder are R= 3.85 cm and L=12.88 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

since the volume of a cylinder is

V= π*R²*L → L =V/ (π*R²)

the cost function is

Cost = cost of side material * side area + cost of top and bottom material * top and bottom area

C = a* 2*π*R*L + b* 2*π*R²

replacing the value of L

C = a* 2*π*R* V/ (π*R²) + b* 2*π*R² = a* 2*V/R + b* 2*π*R²

then the optimal radius for minimum cost can be found when the derivative of the cost with respect to the radius equals 0 , then

dC/dR = -2*a*V/R² + 4*π*b*R = 0

4*π*b*R = 2*a*V/R²

R³ = a*V/(2*π*b)

R= ∛( a*V/(2*π*b))

replacing values

R= ∛( a*V/(2*π*b)) = ∛(0.03$/cm² * 600 cm³ /(2*π* 0.05$/cm²) )= 3.85 cm

then

L =V/ (π*R²) = 600 cm³/(π*(3.85 cm)²) = 12.88 cm

therefore the dimensions that minimize the cost of the cylinder are R= 3.85 cm and L=12.88 cm
