The water temperature required for a certain manufacturing process is 134°F. However, the process allows for a variation of 7°F

in the water temperature.
If x represents the water temperature, which inequality describes the situation? What is the range of water temperatures that is allowed for this process?

Answer:

The temperature that represents a smaller value would be the one with negative eighty (or -80) degrees Fahrenheit. Although it is negative, the value of 80 does not mean it has a smaller value as to 134 degrees. It is just that the difference between the absolute values of the two show that 134 degrees Fahrenheit has a bigger value.

How many different towers can you make using one red, one blue and one yellow block?

icang [17]

You can make 6 different towers. If red was at the bottom, there'd be two different possibilities for that: red, yellow, blue, and red, blue, yellow. Same for if blue was at the bottom: blue, red, yellow, and blue, yellow, red. Yellow also applies: yellow, red, blue, and yellow, blue, red. 3*2=6, so 6 possible towers.

Use the quadratic model P(x)=25^2-24x+615 if x equals 8

Lynna [10]

P(x) = 25^2 -24x + 615
P(8) = 25(8 squared) -24(8) +615 = 2023

A cable car starts off with n riders. The times between successive stops of the car are independent exponential random variables

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The distribution is $\frac{\lambda^{n}e^{- \lambda t}t^{n - 1}}{(n - 1)!}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Total no. of riders = n

Now, suppose the $T_{i}$ is the time between the departure of the rider i - 1 and i from the cable car.

where

$T_{i}$ = independent exponential random variable whose rate is $\lambda$

The general form is given by:

$T_{i} = \lambda e^{- lambda}$

(a) Now, the time distribution of the last rider is given as the sum total of the time of each rider:

$S_{n} = T_{1} + T_{2} + ........ + T_{n}$

$S_{n} = \sum_{i}^{n} T_{n}$

Now, the sum of the exponential random variable with $\lambda$ with rate $\lambda$ is given by:

$S_{n} = f(t:n, \lamda) = \frac{\lambda^{n}e^{- \lambda t}t^{n - 1}}{(n - 1)!}$

An open-top box with a square base is to have a volume of 4 cubic feet. Find the dimensions of the box (in ft) that can be made

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The dimension of box= $2ft\times 2ft\times 1ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Volume of box=4 cubic feet

Let x be the side of square base and h be the height of box

Volume of box= $lbh=x^2h$

$4=x^2h$

$h=\frac{4}{x^2}$

Now, surface area of box,A= $x^2+4xh$

$A=x^2+4x(\frac{4}{x^2})=x^2+\frac{16}{x}$

$\frac{dA}{dx}=2x-\frac{16}{x^2}$

$\frac{dA}{dx}=0$

$2x-\frac{16}{x^2}=0$

$2x=\frac{16}{x^2}$

$x^3=8$

$x=2$

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2}=2+\frac{32}{x^3}$

Substitute x=2

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2}=2+\frac{32}{2^3}=2+4=6>0$

Hence, the area of box is minimum at x=2

Therefore, side of square base,x=2 ft

Height of box,h= $\frac{4}{2^2}=1 ft$

Hence, the dimension of box= $2ft\times 2ft\times 1ft$
