The proportion of 16 to 4 is 4 is 1/4 of 16( 4/16 = 1/4)

So x would be 1/4 of 12

12/4 = 3

X = 3

A company plans to manufacture a rectangular bin with a square base, an open top, and a volume of 13,500 in3. Determine the dime
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Dimensions 30 in x 30 in x 15 in

Surface Area = 2,700 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'r' be the length of the side of the square base, and 'h' be the height of the bin. The volume is given by:

V=13,500=h*r^2\\h=\frac{13,500}{r^2}

The total surface area is given by:

A=4*hr+r^2

Rewriting the surface area function as a function of 'r':

A=4*\frac{13,500}{r^2} *r+r^2\\A=\frac{54,000}{r}+r^2

The value of 'r' for which the derivate of the surface area function is zero, is the length for which the area is minimized:

A=54,000*r^{-1}+r^2\\\frac{dA}{dr}=0= -54,000*r^{-2}+2r\\\frac{54,000}{r^2}=2r\\ r=\sqrt[3]{27,000}\\r=30\ in

The value of 'h' is:

h=\frac{13,500}{30^2}\\ h=15\ in

The dimensions that will ensure the minimum surface area are 30 in x 30 in x 15 in.

The surface area is:

A=4*15*30+30^2\\A=2,700\ in^2

Alla [95]

Answer:

a) 0.71

b) 0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using Baye's Theorem

It is estimated that 88% of senior citizens suffer from sleep disorders and 7% suffer from anxiety. Moreover, 5% of senior citizens suffer from both sleep disorders and anxiety.

We have Two events

A and B

Events A = 88% of senior citizens suffer from sleep disorders

P(A) = 0.88

Event B = 7% suffer from anxiety

P(B) = 0.07

Moreover, 5% of senior citizens suffer from both sleep disorders and anxiety.

P(A and B) = 0.05

a)Given that a senior citizen suffers from anxiety, what is the probability that he or she also suffers from a sleep disorder? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

This is calculated as:

P(A and B)/P(B)

= 0.05/0.07

= 0.7142857143

Approximately = 0.71

B) Find the probability that a senior citizen suffers from anxiety, given that he or she has a sleep disorder. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

This is calculated as:

P(A and B)/P(A)

= 0.05/0.88

= 0.0568181818

Approximately = 0.06
