A rectangular prism must have a base with an area of no more than 27 square meters. The width of the base must be 9 meters less

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The maximum height of the prism is $12\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the height of the prism

we know that

the area of the rectangular base of the prism is equal to

$A=L*W$

$A\leq 27\ m^{2}$

so

$L*W\leq 27$ -------> inequality A

$W=x-9$ ------> equation B

$L=W+6$ -----> equation C

Substitute equation B in equation C

$L=(x-9)+6$

$L=x-3$ ------> equation D

Substitute equation B and equation D in the inequality A

$(x-3)*(x-9)\leq 27$ -------> using a graphing tool to solve the inequality

The solution for x is the interval----------> $[0,12]$

see the attached figure

but remember that

The width of the base must be $9$ meters less than the height of the prism

so

the solution for x is the interval ------> $(9,12]$

The maximum height of the prism is $12\ m$

In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen

Lesechka [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen concrete has a low value of thermal conductivity in order to minimize subsequent damage due to changing temperatures. Suppose two types of concrete, a graded aggregate and a no-fines aggregate, are being considered for a certain road. The table below summarizes data on thermal conductivity from an experiment carried out to compare the two types of concrete.

Type ni xi si

Graded 42 0.486 0.187

No-fines 42 0.359 0.158

To find - a. Formulate the above in terms of a hypothesis testing problem.

b. Give the test statistic and its reference distribution (under the null hypothesis).

c. Report the p-value of the test statistic and use it to assess the evidence that this sample provides on the scientific question of difference in mean conductivity of the two materials at the 5% level of significance.

Proof -

a.)

Hypothesis testing problem :

H0 : There is significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

H1 : There is no significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

b)

Test statistic :

$Z = \frac{x_{1} - x_{2} }{\sqrt{\frac{s_{1} ^{2} }{n_{1}} + \frac{s_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } }$

$Z = \frac{0.486 - 0.359 }{\sqrt{\frac{0.03496 }{42} + \frac{0.02496 }{42} } }$

$Z = \frac{0.127 }{\sqrt{0.001468}}$

$Z = \frac{0.127 }{0.0377}$

⇒Z(cal) = 3.3687

Z(tab) = 1.96

As Z (cal) > Z(tab)

So, we reject H0 at 5% Level of significance

p-value = 0.99962

Hence

There is significant difference in mean conductivity at the two materials.

Orlov [11]

Paralalell means that is has the same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
y=-1x-2
slope=-1

the equation of a line that passes through the point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is y-y1=m(x-x1)
given
(2,-2) and slope is -1
y-(-2)=-1(x-2)
y+2=-x+2
minus 2
y=-x
answer is y=-x
