Let U represent the set of all people that frequently visit a certain restaurant, surveyed about which food they like best. Let

B = { x ∈ U | x likes Hamburgers } C = { x ∈ U | x likes Corn Dogs } P = { x ∈ U | x likes Pizza } (Assume these sets are not disjoint.) Write the statement that refers to: P ∩ ( C ∪ B ) c .

Answer:

P ∩ ( C ∪ B )^c={x∈U: x likes Pizza and x does not like neither Corn Dogs nor Hamburgers}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the statement that defines the set P∩(C∪B)^c, remember the following operations between sets

  1. Union: the union of the sets X and Y is defined as X∪Y={z:z∈X or z∈Y}, it is the set of the elements to belong to X or belong to Y (it includes elements that belong to both sets)
  1. Intersection: the intersection of the sets X and Y is defined as X∩Y={z:z∈X and z∈Y}, it is the set of the elements that belong to both X and Y.
  1. Complement: if X⊆U the complement of X is the set X^c=U-X={z: z∈U and z∉X}. It is the set of all elements (in U, the "universe") that do not belong to X.

Let z∈P∩(C∪B)^c. By definition of intersection, z∈P and z∈(C∪B)^c.

Since z∈P, z likes Pizza. Now, by definition of complement, z∉C∪B. Then it is not possible that z∈C or z∈B. Thus z∉C and z∉B. Both are required, if one of these two were false, z would belong to either C or B, and thus, belong to the union (impossible). Since z∉C, z does not like Corn Dogs, and since z∉B, z does not like Hamburgers.

We conclude that z likes Pizza, and z does not like neither Corn Dogs nor Hamburgers.

The answer is written with x replacing z, but they are dummy variables so it does not matter.

A rectangular tank that is 2048 ft cubed with a square base and open top is to be constructed of sheet steel of a given thicknes
ira [324]

Answer:

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft Therefore,dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the volume of the tank as, 2048 cubic feet.

Form minimum weight, the surface area must be minimum.

Let the height be h and the lengths be x

the volume will be: V=x²h then substitute the value of volume, we have

2048=hx²

hence

h=2048/x²

Since the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, then the material needs to be minimized by minimizing the surface area.

The surface area of the box described is

A=x²+4xh

Then substitute h into the Area equation we have

A= x² + 4x(2048/x²)

A= x² + 8192/x

We want to minimize

A

dA/dx = -8192/x² + 2 x= 0 for max or min

when dA/dx=0

dA/dx= 2x-8192/x²=0

2x=8192/x²

Hence

2x³=8192

x³=4096

x=₃√(4096)

X=16ft

Then h=2048/x²

h=2048/16²

h=8ft

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft

Hence the dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

How can 1/5x − 2 = 1/3x + 8 be set up as a system of equations? a . 5y − 5x = −10. 3y − 3x = 24 b. 5y − 5x = −10. 3y + 3x = 24 c
VMariaS [17]
The answer is d. 5y − x = −10. 3y − x = 24

\frac{1}{5}x-2=  \frac{1}{3}x+8=y
⇒   y= \frac{1}{5}x-2
      y= \frac{1}{3}x+8
________________________
y= \frac{x}{5} -2= \frac{x}{5} - \frac{10}{5} = \frac{x-10}{5}
y= \frac{x}{3} +8= \frac{x}{3} + \frac{24}{3} = \frac{x+24}{3}
________________________
y= \frac{x-10}{5}            ⇒     5y=x-10
y= \frac{x+24}{3}           ⇒     3y=x+24
________________________
5y-x=-10
3y-x=24

Find the rule.
mezya [45]

The <em>first</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 1 as <em>first</em> element and 1 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 1 + x|.

The <em>second</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 3 as <em>second</em> element as 2 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 3 + 2 · x|.

<h3>What is the pattern and the function behind a given series?</h3>

In this problem we have two cases of <em>arithmetic</em> series, which are sets of elements generated by a condition in the form of <em>linear</em> function and inside <em>absolute</em> power. <em>Linear</em> <em>functions</em> used in these series are of the form:

y = a + r · x      (1)

Where:

  • a - Value of the first element of the series.
  • r - Common difference between two consecutive numbers of the series.
  • x - Index of the element of the series.

The <em>first</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 1 as <em>first</em> element and 1 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 1 + x|.

The <em>second</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 3 as <em>second</em> element as 2 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 3 + 2 · x|.
