How do we use inclined planes? give an exampleHow is a wedge related to a inclined plane?

An inclined plane is a simple machine that allows one to use less force to move an object. Examples would include ramps, sloping roads, and hills.

wedges are a type of inclined plane, but instead of being stationary and having work done upon it, the wedge can be moved.

You use inclined planes by putting an object on something and push it down like a ramp.

In a chemical plant, 24 holding tanks are used for final product storage. Four tanks are selected at random and without replacem

Damm [24]

Answer:

a) P(A) = 0,4607 or P(A) = 46,07 %

b) P(B) = 0,7120 or 71,2 %

c) P(C) = 0,2055 or P(C) = 20,55 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use two concepts in solving this problem.

1.- The probability of an event (A) is for definition:

P(A) = Number of favorable events/ Total number of events FE/TE

2.- If A and B are complementary events ( the sum of them is equal to 1) then:

P(A) = 1 - P(B)

a) The total number of events is:

C ( 24,4) = 24! / 4! ( 24 - 4 )! ⇒ C ( 24,4) = 24! / 4! * 20!

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21*20! / 4! * 20!

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21/4*3*2

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21/4*3*2 ⇒ C ( 24,4) = 10626

TE = 10626

Splitting the group of tanks in two 6 with h-v and 24-6 (18) without h-v

we get that total number of favorable events is the product of:

FE = 6* C ( 18, 3) = 6 * 18! / 3!*15! = 18*17*16*15!/15!

FE = 4896

Then P(A) ( 1 tank in the sample contains h-v material is:

P(A) = 4896/10626

P(A) = 0,4607 or P(A) = 46,07 %

b) P(B) will be the probability of at least 1 tank contains h-v

P(B) = 1 - P ( no one tank with h-v)

Again Total number of events is 10626

The total number of favorable events for the ocurrence of P is C (18,4)

FE = C (18,4) = 18! / 14!*4! = 18*17*16*15*14!/14!*4!

FE = 18*17*16*15/4*3*2 = 3060

Then P = 3060/10626

P = 0,2879

And the probability we are looking for is

P(B) = 1 - 0,2879

P(B) = 0,7120 or 71,2 %

c) We call P(C) the probability of finding exactly 1 tank with h-v and t-i

having 4 with t-i tanks is:

reasoning the same way but now having 4 with t-i (impurities) number of favorable events is:

FE = 6*4* C(14,2) = 24 * 14!/12!*2!

FE = 24* 14*13*12! / 12!*2

FE = 24*14*13/2 ⇒ FE = 2184

And again as the TE = 10626

P(C) = 2184/ 10626

P(C) = 0,2055 or P(C) = 20,55 %

A car rental agency has 150 cars. The owner finds that at a price of $48 per day, he can rent all the cars. For each $2 increase

hram777 [196]

Given that for each $2 increase in price, the demand is less and 4 fewer cars are rented.

Let x be the number of $2 increases in price, then the revenue from renting cars is given by
$(48 + 2x) \times (150 - 4x)=7,200+108x-8x^2$ .

Also, given that for each car that is rented, there are routine maintenance costs of $5 per day, then the total cost of renting cars is given by
$5(150-4x)=750-20x$

Profit is given by revenue - cost.
Thus, the profit from renting cars is given by
 $(7,200+108x-8x^2)-(750-20x)=6,450+128x-8x^2$

For maximum profit, the differentiation of the profit function equals zero.
i.e.
 $\frac{d}{dx} (6,450+128x-8x^2)=0 \\ \\ 128-16x=0 \\ \\ x= \frac{128}{16} =8$

The price of renting a car is given by 48 + 2x = 48 + 2(8) = 48 + 16 = 64.

Therefore, the rental charge will maximize profit is $64.
