A forest ranger wants to install a 1,500 CFM (cubic feet per minute) fan. A ranger station consists of a rectangular prism and a

rectangular pyramid. The base of the pyramid and prism is 10 ft by 8 ft. The height of the pyramid is 3 ft and the height of the prism is 8 ft. The ranger station requires one CFM per ft2. Will the fan provide enough airflow for the ranger station? Why or why not?

Answer:

Yes, fan will provide enough airflow in the ranger station.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ranger station consist of a rectangular pyramid and a rectangular prism.

So volume of air in ranger station = volume of prism + volume of a pyramid

Volume of a rectangular prism = Length×Width×height

= 10×8×8 = 640 ft³

Volume of the pyramid = \frac{1}{3}(\text{area of the base)(height)}

= \frac{1}{3}(10)(8)(3)

= 80 ft³

Total volume of the ranger station = 640 + 80 = 720 ft³

Since CFM has the airflow capacity of 1500 cubic feet per minute so one CFM will be sufficient for the volume of 720 ft³.

Sample response: <span>Yes, the fan will provide enough airflow. The volume of the ranger station is 720 cubic feet. The ranger station requires a 720 CFM fan. 1,500 CFM is greater than 720 CFM, so it will be enough airflow.</span>

Consider a normal distribution curve where the middle 85 % of the area under the curve lies above the interval ( 8 , 14 ). Use t
NeTakaya

Answer:

\mu = 11

\sigma = 2.08

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.

Middle 85%.

Values of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.5 - 0.85/2 = 0.075 to 0.5 + 0.85/2 = 0.925

Above the interval (8,14)

This means that when Z has a pvalue of 0.075, X = 8. So when Z = -1.44, X = 8. So

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

-1.44 = \frac{8 - \mu}{\sigma}

8 - \mu = -1.44\sigma

\mu = 8 + 1.44\sigma

Also, when X = 14, Z has a pvalue of 0.925, so when X = 8, Z = 1.44

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

1.44 = \frac{14 - \mu}{\sigma}

14 - \mu = 1.44\sigma

1.44\sigma = 14 - \mu

Replacing in the first equation

\mu = 8 + 1.44\sigma

\mu = 8 + 14 - \mu

2\mu = 22

\mu = \frac{22}{2}

\mu = 11

Standard deviation:

1.44\sigma = 14 - \mu

1.44\sigma = 14 - 11

\sigma = \frac{3}{1.44}

\sigma = 2.08

A tank contains 300 liters of fluid in which 40 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pu
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

A(t) = 300 -260e^(-t/50)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of A(t) is ...

A'(t) = 6 -6/300·A(t)

Rewriting, we have ...

A'(t) +(1/50)A(t) = 6

This has solution ...

A(t) = p + qe^-(t/50)

We need to find the values of p and q. Using the differential equation, we ahve ...

A'(t) = -q/50e^-(t/50) = 6 - (p +qe^-(t/50))/50

0 = 6 -p/50

p = 300

From the initial condition, ...

A(0) = 300 +q = 40

q = -260

So, the complete solution is ...

A(t) = 300 -260e^(-t/50)

___

The salt in the tank increases in exponentially decaying fashion from 40 grams to 300 grams with a time constant of 50 minutes.
