If the mass of a material is 108 grams and the volume of the material is 17 cm3, what would the density of the material be?

1 answer:

6 0

The amount of an object does not change the density. ... The density (d) of a material is its mass (m) divided by its volume (V). ... Calculate the density of an object that has a mass of 25.0g and the volumeis 10.5ml. ... If you know that the object has a density of 20.0 g/ml and the volume is 5.00 ml. ... 40g/12cm3 =3.3 g/cm3 ...

A new car depreciates as soon as you drive it out of the parking lot. A certain car depreciates to half its original value in 4

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Original price of car = $20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the car be 'x' dollars.

Given:

Here, the depreciation of the car is occuring exponentially as the value depreciates to half in every four years.

Worth of car after 8 years = $5000

Value after depreciation in 4 years = Half of original value = $\frac{x}{2}$

So, value of car after depreciation in another 4 years = Half of the value after 4 years = $\frac{1}{2}(\frac{x}{2})=\frac{x}{4}$

Therefore, final depreciated value after 8 years is $\frac{x}{4}$ .

But, as per question, final depreciated value is $5000. Thus,

$\frac{x}{4}=5000\\x=5000\times 4\\x=20000$

Therefore, the original price of the car was $20,000.

Sample Size for Proportion As a manufacturer of golf equipment, the Spalding Corporation wants to estimate the proportion of gol

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.025}{2.58})^2}=2662.56$

And rounded up we have that n=2663

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$\hat p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$t_{\alpha/2}=-2.58, t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.58$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.025$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

We can assume an estimated proportion of $\hat p =0.5$ since we don't have prior info provided. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.025}{2.58})^2}=2662.56$

And rounded up we have that n=2663

Adam is building a computer desk with a separate compartment for the computer. The compartment for the computer is a rectangular

Alik [6]

Answer:

The width of the computer compartment is 9 inches

The length of the computer compartment is 33 inches

The height of the computer compartment is 27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data on the rectangular prism compartment are;

The volume of the rectangular prism, V = 8019 cubic inches

The length of the compartment, l = 24 inches + The width, w

The height of the compartment, h = 18 inches + The width, w

Therefore, we have;

l = 24 + w

h = 18 + w

V = l × h × w

∴ V = (24 + w) × (18 + w) × w = w³ + 42·w² + 432·w = 8019

w³ + 42·w² + 432·w - 8019 = 0

By graphing the above function with MS Excel, we have one of the solution is w = 9

∴ (w - 9) is a factor of w³ + 42·w² + 432·w - 8019 = 0

Dividing, we get;

w² + 51·w + 891

w³ + 42·w² + 432·w - 8019 = 0

w³ - 9·w²

51·w² - 459·w

891·w

891·w + 8019

Therefore,

w³ + 42·w² + 432·w - 8019 = 0

w³ + 42·w² + 432·w - 8019 = (x - 9)·(w² + 51·w + 891) = 0

The determinant of the factor, w² + 51·w + 891 = 51² - 4×1×891 = -963, therefore, the it has complex roots

Therefore, the real solution of (x - 9)·(w² + 51·w + 891) = 0 is w = 9

The width of the computer compartment, w = 9 inches

The length of the computer compartment, l = 24 inches + 9 inches = 33 inches

The height of the computer compartment, h = 18 inches + 9 inches = 27 inches.
