Your iron works has been contracted to design and build a 500-ft3 square-based, open-top, rectangular steel holding tank for a p

aper company. The tank is to be made by welding half-inch-thick stainless steel plates together along their edges. As the production engineer, your job is to find dimensions for the base and height that will make the tank weight as little as possible. What dimensions do you tell the shop to use?

500 cubic feet of 1/2-inch thick stainless steel plates will weigh the same no matter what dimensions are use for area and height of tank.

A 5 foot by 5 foot area 20 feet high (500 cubic feet) will weigh just as much as a  10 foot by 10 foot area 5 feet high (also 500 cubic feet) since you are using the same amount of material for the whole tank. Only possible change in weight of tank is the use of welding material and how evenly and good the welder is at welding stainless steel.

Evaluate the triple integral. 5x dv, where e is bounded by the paraboloid x = 7y2 + 7z2 and the plane x = 7. e
Mrac [35]

Convert to cylindrical coordinates:

x=x

y=r\cos\theta

z=r\sin\theta

Then E is the set of points (r,\theta,x) such that 0\le r\le1, 0\le\theta\le2\pi, and 7y^2+7z^2\le x\le7 or 7r^2\le x\le7.

Now

\displaystyle\iiint_E5x\,\mathrm dV=5\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^1\int_{7r^2}^7xr\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta=\boxed{\frac{245\pi}3}

sammy [17]

Answer:

Company C

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide the amount of money it all costs to the number of plushies they are selling it for.

A: 34.08/12 = $2.84 each

B: 42.90/15 = $2.86 each

C: 50.58/18 = $2.81 each

So C has the least amount of money spent for a greater amount of plushies so C would be the Best Buy.
