Answer:P(x<10) =0

Step-by-step explanation:

M =1/μ

M= 1/15 =0.066667

X- Exp (0.066667)

Where: X is the random variable for number of days

P (X<x) = 1 - e^-mx

P(X - x) = 1 - e^-0.06666 x10

P(x<10) = 0

A rectangular storage container with an open top is to have a volume of 24 cubic meters. The length of its base is twice the wid
Mariana [72]

Answer:

419.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of the cost of materials for the cheapest such container is shown below:-

We assume

Width = x

Length = 2x

Height = h

where, length = 2 \times width

Base area = lb

= 2x^2

Side area = 2lh + 2bh

= 2(2x)h + 2(x)h

= 4xh + 2xh

Volume = 24 which is lbh = 24

h = \frac{24}{2x^2} \\\\ h = \frac{12}{x^2}

Now, cost is

= 13(2x^2) + 9(4xh + 2xh)\\\\ = 13(2x^2) + 9(4x + 2x)\times \frac{12}{x^2} \\\\ = 26x^2 + \frac{648}{x}

now we have to minimize C(x)

So, we need to compute the C'(x)

= 52x - \frac{648}{x^2}

C"(x)  = 52x - \frac{1,296}{x^3}

now for the critical points, we will solve the equation C'(x) = 0

= 52x - \frac{648}{x^2} = 0\\\\ x = \frac{648}{52}^{\frac{1}{3}}

C" = ((\frac{648}{52} ^{\frac{1}{3} } = 52 + \frac{1296}{(\frac{648}{52})^\frac{1}{3} )^3}\\\\ = 52 + \frac{1296}{\frac{648}{52} } >0

So, x is a point of minima that is

= (\frac{648}{52} )^\frac{1}{3}

Now, Base material cost is

= 13(2x^2)\\\\ = 26(\frac{648}{52} )^\frac{2}{3}

= 139.75

Side material cost is

= \frac{648}{x} \\\\ = \frac{648}{(\frac{648}{52})^\frac{1}{3}  }

= 279.50

and finally

Total cost is

= 139.75 + 279.50

= 419.25

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-3,4) and (4,-1)
Serhud [2]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{5}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 1)

m = \frac{-1-4}{4+3} = - \frac{5}{7}

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

12.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Her total paycheck minus her salary = the commission amount

So

6500 - 1000 = 5500

So....her commission as a percentage of sales  = 5500/ 45000 = about 12.2%
