1 answer:
Musya8 [376]3 years ago

Answer:

A.) $2,166

B.) $10,545

C.) (n/2)(3.5 + 0.5n) × 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Floor - - - - - - - - - - 1 - - - - - - - 2 - - - - - - - 3

Cost / window - - $2.00 - - - $2.50 - - - $3.00

Cost of washing first floor = $2 × 38

Cost of second floor is: (2 + 0.5) × 38

Cost of third floor is: (2 + 2 × 0.5) × 38

Cost of n floor : (2 + (n - 1) × 0.5) × 38

Therefore,

Total cost :

(2 + (2 + 0.5) + (2 + 2*0.5) + ... + (2 + (n - 1)*0.5)) × 38

Using Arithmetic progression for the sequence :

2, (2 + 0.5), (2 + 2*0.5),..., (2 + (n - 1)*0.5)

first term 'a' = 2; common difference 'd' = 0.5

Sum of the first n terms of arithmetic sequence terms is:

S = (n/2)(2a + (n - 1)d) ; Where a = 2 and d = 0.5

S = (n/2)(2*2 + (n - 1)*0.5)

S = (n/2)(4 + 0.5n - 0.5)

S = (n/2)(3.5 + 0.5n)

To wash all windows with n stories :

S × 38 windows

A.) To wash all windows : stories = 12

n = 12

(12/2)(3.5 + 0.5(12)) × 38

6(3.5 + 6) × 38 = $2,166

B.) if building is 30 stories tall:

n = 30

(30/2)(3.5 + 0.5(30)) × 38

15(3.5 + 15) × 38 = $10,545

C.) If building is n stories tall :

(n/2)(3.5 + 0.5n) × 38

A lidless box is to be made using 2m^2 of cardboard find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard
Jlenok [28]
1.8, Problem 37: A lidless cardboard box is to be made with a volume of 4 m3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard. Solution: If the dimensions of our box are x, y, and z, then we’re seeking to minimize A(x, y, z) = xy + 2xz + 2yz subject to the constraint that xyz = 4. Our first step is to make the first function a function of just 2 variables. From xyz = 4, we see z = 4/xy, and if we substitute this into A(x, y, z), we obtain a new function A(x, y) = xy + 8/y + 8/x. Since we’re optimizing something, we want to calculate the critical points, which occur when Ax = Ay = 0 or either Ax or Ay is undefined. If Ax or Ay is undefined, then x = 0 or y = 0, which means xyz = 4 can’t hold. So, we calculate when Ax = 0 = Ay. Ax = y − 8/x2 = 0 and Ay = x − 8/y2 = 0. From these, we obtain x 2y = 8 = xy2 . This forces x = y = 2, which forces z = 1. Calculating second derivatives and applying the second derivative test, we see that (x, y) = (2, 2) is a local minimum for A(x, y). To show it’s an absolute minimum, first notice that A(x, y) is defined for all choices of x and y that are positive (if x and y are arbitrarily large, you can still make z REALLY small so that xyz = 4 still). Therefore, the domain is NOT a closed and bounded region (it’s neither closed nor bounded), so you can’t apply the Extreme Value Theorem. However, you can salvage something: observe what happens to A(x, y) as x → 0, as y → 0, as x → ∞, and y → ∞. In each of these cases, at least one of the variables must go to ∞, meaning that A(x, y) goes to ∞. Thus, moving away from (2, 2) forces A(x, y) to increase, and so (2, 2) is an absolute minimum for A(x, y).

A sample is selected from a population with μ = 46, and a treatment is administered to the sample. After treatment, the sample m
Georgia [21]

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The sample mean before treatment, μ1 = 46  

- The sample mean  after treatment, μ2 = 48

- The sample standard deviation σ = √16 = 4

- For the independent samples T-test, Cohen's d is determined by calculating the mean difference between your two groups, and then dividing the result by the pooled standard deviation.

                           Cohen's d = \frac{u2 - u1}{sd_p_o_o_l_e_d}

- Where, the pooled standard deviation (sd_pooled) is calculated using the formula:

                          sd_p_o_o_l_e_d =\sqrt{\frac{SD_1^2 +SD_2^2}{2} }

- Assuming that population standard deviation and sample standard deviation are same:

                          SD_1 = SD_2 =  σ = 4

- Then,

                           sd_p_o_o_l_e_d =\sqrt{\frac{4^2 +4^2}{2} } = 4

- The cohen's d can now be evaliated:

                          Cohen's d = \frac{48 - 46}{4} = 0.5

The diameter of a bacteria colony that doubles every hour is represented by the graph below. What is the diameter of the bacteri
Nady [450]

Do you notice anything strange about those points ?

(0, 1), 
(1, 2), 
(2, 4),
(3, 8).

The y-coordinate of each point is (2) raised to the  power of the x-coordinate.

First point:       x=0,  y=2⁰ = 1
Second point: x=1,  y=2¹ = 2
Third point:      x=2,  y=2² = 4
Fourth point:    x=3,  y=2³ = 8


The equation of the curve appears to be

                               y = 2 ^ x .

So, after 10 hours,  x=10, and  y = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 .

Which of the following equations belongs to an ellipse with vertical orientation?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

d. 16x² + y² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of an ellipse is:

x² / a² + y² / b² = 1

If b > a, the ellipse has a vertical orientation.

We can ignore options b and c, since they have minus signs in them.

Convert the other options to standard form:

a. x² / (1/16) + y² / (1/25) = 1

x² / (1/4)² + y² / (1/5)² = 1

1/4 > 1/5

d. x² + y² / 16 = 1

x² / 1² + y² / 4² = 1

1 < 4

e. x² / 16 + y² = 1

x² / 4² + y² / 1² = 1

4 > 1

Of these three options, only d is a vertical ellipse.
