Answer:

A person in a group where 5 people are sharing 3 small bags of snickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of calories in one bag of snickers =x

Number of calories in 3 small bags of snickers =3x

  • If 5 people share 3 small bags of snickers, 1 person's share  =\dfrac{3x}{5}

Number of calories in 2 small bags of snickers =2x

  • If 7 people share 2 small bags of snickers, 1 person's share  =\dfrac{2x}{7}

We then compare the two.

Let x=1

\dfrac{3}{5}=0.6$ calories per person\\\dfrac{2}{7}=0.29$ calories per person

Therefore, a person in a group where 5 people are sharing 3 small bags of snickers gets more calories.

A chemical refinery needs a vat. They want the vat to be a rectangular prism (with square bases) that has a maximum volume of 1,
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

For least material to be used lengths of square base and sides = 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lengths of the square base and the sides = x feet, x feet and y feet

Area of the square base = x² feet

Volume of the rectangular prism = Area of the square base × Height

                                                      = x²y cubic feet

1000 = x²y

y = \frac{1000}{x^2} -------(1)

Material used in the prism = Surface area of the rectangular prism

                                            = 2(lb + bh + hl)

Here, h =  height of the prism

l = length of the base

w = Width of the base

Material to be used (S) = 2(xy + x² + xy) - Area of lid

                                  S = 2(x² + 2xy) - x²

                                  S = x² + 2xy

Now by substituting the value of y from equation (1),

S = x² + 2x(\frac{1000}{x^{2} })

  = x² + \frac{2000}{x}

For least amount of material used,

We will find the derivative of the given function and equate it to zero.

S' = 2x - \frac{2000}{x^{2} }

2x - \frac{2000}{x^{2} } = 0

2x³ = 2000

x³ = 1000

x = 10 feet

From equation (1),

y = \frac{1000}{(10)^2}

y = 10 feet

Therefore, for least amount of the material used lengths of square base and sides will be 10 feet.

Please help, it's due really soon!
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Ok so you have to figure out what is the input, output, y-intercept (b), slope (m), and equation.

First, input is the x. Looking at the graph.

Input : 0, 10, 20

Second, output is the y. Looking at the graph.

Output : 20, 30, 40

Third, y-intercept is the b in the equation of y = mx + b. Looking at the graph.

Y-intercept (b) : 20

Fourth, slope is the m in the equation of y = mx + b. Looking at the graph.

Slope (m) : 1/2

Fifth, you have to find the equation in the form of y = mx + b. Looking at the graph.

Equation : y = 1/2x + 20

I hope this helps and if you have any other questions I would be glad to answer it, thank you :) !!
