Answer:
(a) |s - x| ≤ 3/16
(b) 4 15/16 ≤ x ≤ 5 5/16
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The absolute value of the difference from spec must be no greater than than the allowed tolerance:
|s - x| ≤ 3/16
__
(b) Put 5 1/8 for s in the above equation and solve.
|5 1/8 - x| ≤ 3/16
-3/16 ≤ 5 1/8 -x ≤ 3/16
3/16 ≥ x -5 1/8 ≥ -3/16 . . . . multiply by -1 to get positive x
5 5/16 ≥ x ≥ 4 15/16 . . . . . . add 5 1/8
Pieces may be between 4 15/16 and 5 5/16 inches in length.
Answer:
Thermal energy refers to several distinct physical concepts, such as the internal energy of a system; heat or sensible heat, which are defined as types of energy transfer; or for the characteristic energy of a degree of freedom in a thermal system kT, where T is temperature and k is the Boltzmann constant.
Step-by-step explanation:
No, it is not a perfect cube. A perfect cube is a number that is obtained when you cube an integer. For example, 8 (cube of 2), 27 (cube of 3) and 64 (cube of 4). Since -3 cannot be obtained by cubing an integer, it is not a perfect cube.
