Let

x--------> the length side of the square base

h--------> the height of the box

we know that

<u>the volume of the box is equal to</u>

V=x^{2} *h\\ V=9\ m^{3}

so

x^{2} *h=9\\\\h=\frac{9}{x^{2} }

<u>the surface area of the box is equal to</u>

SA=area\ of\ the\ base+perimeter\ of\ base*height (remember that the box is open)

area of the base=(x^{2})\ m^{2}

Perimeter of the base=(4*x)\ m

height=(h) m

h=\frac{9}{x^{2}}

substitute

SA=x^{2} +4*x*h\\ \\ \\ SA=x^{2} +4*x*\frac{9}{x^{2} } \\ \\ SA=x^{2} +\frac{36}{x}

we know that

the value of x can not be negative and the denominator can not be zero

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the domain of  SA is x> 0

the domain is the interval-------------> (0,∞)

Find an equation of the tangent line to the curve 2(x2+y2)2=25(x2−y2) (a lemniscate) at the point (−3,1). An equation of the tan
valina [46]

2(x^2+y^2)^2=25(x^2-y^2)

Let y=y(x), so that differentiating both sides wrt x gives

4(x^2+y^2)\left(2x+2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)=25\left(2x-2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)

If x=-3 and y=1, the above reduces to

40\left(-6+2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)=25\left(-6-2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\right)\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac9{13}

This is the slope of the tangent line, which has equation

y-1=\dfrac9{13}(x+3)\implies\boxed{y=\dfrac{9x+40}{13}}

The Robotics Manufacturing Company operates an equipment repair business where emergency jobs arrive randomly at the rate of thr
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

  • \lambda=0.375 \ jobs \ per \ hour
  • \mu=0.5 \ jobs \ per \ hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Service time varies,

Repair time = 2 hours

Standard deviation = 1.5 hours

Robotics uses per hour cost,

= $35

Company's cost per hour,

= $28

(a)

⇒ Arrival rate = Jobs per hours

then,

                       = \frac{8 \ hours}{3 \ jobs}

                       = 2.666 \ hours \ per \ job

The jobs per hour will be:

⇒  \lambda=\frac{1}{2.666}

       =0.375

(b)

⇒ Service rate = jobs per hour

then,

                      μ = \frac{1 \ repair \ job}{2 \ hours}

                         = 0.5 \ jobs

A hollow sphere sits snugly in a foam cube so that the sphere touches each side of the cube. Find the volume of the foam.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

                             π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the sphere be r.  Then the volume of the sphere is

V = (4/3)(π)(r³).  

Next, recognize that the side length of the cube is 2r, and that the volume of the cube is thus

V = (2r)³, or 8r³.

Then the volume of the foam is equal to the volume of the cube less the volume of the sphere:

V-foam = 8r³ - (4/3)(π)(r³).  This could be factored into

                             π

V-foam = 4r³( 2 - ----- )

                             3

Talja [164]

Answer:

80 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

(3/4)/30=2/x

cross product

30*2=(3/4)x

60=3/4x

x=60/(3/4)

x=(60/1)(4/3)

x=240/3

x=80
