Keeping in mind what you did in the lab this week, do you think that determining the volumes of your solid samples (rubber stopp

er, crock stopper, and pennies) by measuring their dimensions and calculating it mathematically would be more or less accurate than determining their volumes by water displacement? Explain.

Answer:

Calculating volumes by water displacement is always more accurate than using mathematical formulas when the objects have irregular shapes or it is difficult to measure them exactly. The only thing that you must keep in mind is measuring the water displacements properly. One ml of water equals 1 cm³, so if the water level increased by 5 ml, then the object's volume is 5 cm³.

Katen [24]

Answer:

24.8 per hour

Explanation:

There are 3 workers and hence are three workstations. Consecutive activities are assigned to each workstation such that workload is as uniform as possible

Hence the time in each workstation (WS) is,  

WS1 = 45+55+15 = 115 seconds

WS2 = 25+50+5+30 = 110 seconds

WS3 = 95+50 = 145 seconds

Workstation 3 has the highest processing time and hence is the bottleneck and determines the capacity of the process

Therefore capacity = 1/145 per second = 3600/145 per hour = 24.8 per hour

$1,000 par value bond pays interest of $35 each quarter and will mature in 10 years. If your nominal annual required rate of ret
Georgia [21]

Answer:

$1,115.58

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much should you be willing to pay for this bond

Using this formula

Bond Price​= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]

Where,

Par value= $1,000

Cupon= $35

Time= 10*4= 40 quarters

Rate= 0.12/4= 0.03

Let plug in the formula

Bond Price​= 35*{[1 - (1.03^-40)] / 0.03} + [1,000/(1.03^40)]

Bond Price​= 809.02 + 306.56

Bond Price​= $1,115.58

Therefore how much should you be willing to pay for this bond is $1,115.58

A newspaper headline writer found that the more adjectives she put in the titles of her articles, the greater the number of news
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Positive.

Explanation:

A linear function has a positive relationship and as such an increase in one variable (input variable) causes an increase in the other variable (output variable) i.e the variables are directly proportional. Thus, the graph of a linear function is a straight-line and its slope is always constant.

On the other hand, nonlinear function has a negative relationship and as such an increase in one variable (input variable) causes a decrease in the other variable (output variable) i.e the variables are inversely proportional.

This ultimately implies that, the graph of a nonlinear function is a curved line and whose direction is constantly changing

In this scenario, the relationship between numbers of adjectives and newspaper sales must be positive because the higher the amount of adjectives put in the titles of her articles, the greater the number of newspapers that would be sold on a particular day.
