The cost C of moving rubble is proportional to the product of the mass M of the rubble and the distance D the rubble must be mov

ed. Use K as your proportionality constant (Note: we don't use C since we are already using it for cost).
(a) Find C(M,D).
C(M,D)=___________________
(b) If it costs 50 dollars to move 1 ton of rubble 1 mile, how much does it cost to move 16 tons 15 miles?.

Answer:

a) C(M,D) = KMD

b) $12,000                  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The cost C of moving rubble is proportional to the product of the mass M of the rubble and the distance D the rubble must be moved.

This can be written as:

a)

C \propto M\times D\\C = KMD,\\\text{where K is the constant of proportionality.}

C(M,D) = KMD

b) It costs 50 dollars to move 1 ton of rubble 1 mile

50 = K\times 1\times 1\\\Rightarrow K= 50

We have to find  cost to move 16 tons 15 miles.

Putting the values in the function:

C(16,15) = 50\times 16\times 15 = 12000

Thus, $12,00 is the cost to move 16 tons 15 miles.

How to I find this?<br><br> What percent of 60 is 42?
Tpy6a [65]
So let's put it this way-
N% x 60 = 42
You want to isolate the variable
42/60 = N%
42/60 is .7 which is 70%
Hope this helps :)

Consider H0: μ = 45 versus H1: μ &lt; 45. A random sample of 25 observations produced a sample mean of 41.8. Using α = .025 and
a_sh-v [17]
Given
H0: \ \mu=45 \\  \\ H1: \ \mu\ \textless \ 45
This is a one-tailed test.

z= \frac{41.8-45}{6/ \sqrt{25} } = \frac{-3.2}{6/5} = \frac{-3.2}{1.2} =-2.6667

P(z\ \textless \ -2.6667)=0.00383

Since the p-value of the sample statistic (0.00383) is less that the significant level (0.025), we reject the null hypothesis.
