An ostrich egg weighs 64 ounces is the weight of the ostrich egg greater than 5 pounds?

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

An ostrich egg is 4 pounds, therefore, an ostrich egg is not greater than 5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the ounces to pound.

1 pound = 16 ounces

Next, divide.

64 ÷ 16 = 4.

4 < 5

So, an ostrich isn't greater than 5 pounds

Have a wonderful day!

g A manufacturer is making cylindrical cans that hold 300 cm3. The dimensions of the can are not mandated, so to save manufactur

sdas [7]

Answer:

The dimensions that minimize the cost of materials for the cylinders have radii of about 3.628 cm and heights of about 7.256 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

A cylindrical can holds 300 cubic centimeters, and we want to find the dimensions that minimize the cost for materials: that is, the dimensions that minimize the surface area.

Recall that the volume for a cylinder is given by:

$\displaystyle V = \pi r^2h$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle (300) = \pi r^2 h$

Solve for <em>h: </em>

$\displaystyle \frac{300}{\pi r^2} = h$

Recall that the surface area of a cylinder is given by:

$\displaystyle A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh$

We want to minimize this equation. To do so, we can find its critical points, since extrema (minima and maxima) occur at critical points.

First, substitute for <em>h</em>.

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} A &= 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r\left(\frac{300}{\pi r^2}\right) \\ \\ &=2\pi r^2 + \frac{600}{ r} \end{aligned}$

Find its derivative:

$\displaystyle A' = 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2}$

Solve for its zero(s):

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (0) &= 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2} \\ \\ 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2} &= 0 \\ \\ 4\pi r^3 - 600 &= 0 \\ \\ \pi r^3 &= 150 \\ \\ r &= \sqrt[3]{\frac{150}{\pi}} \approx 3.628\text{ cm}\end{aligned}$

Hence, the radius that minimizes the surface area will be about 3.628 centimeters.

Then the height will be:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} h&= \frac{300}{\pi\left( \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{150}{\pi}}\right)^2} \\ \\ &= \frac{60}{\pi \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{180}{\pi^2}}}\approx 7.25 6\text{ cm} \end{aligned}$

In conclusion, the dimensions that minimize the cost of materials for the cylinders have radii of about 3.628 cm and heights of about 7.256 cm.

A rock is placed in a graduated cylinder to determine its volume. The following data are obtained. What is the volume of the roc

yarga [219]

Easy
when rock is in water, it takes up a certain volume, say x
so
initial+x=final volume
luckily we have final and inital
13.7ml+x=28.9ml
minus 13.7ml both sides
x=15.2ml

the volme of the rock is 15.2ml
