Christopher works at the power plant for the southwest part of his home state. For peak operational performance, his department

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

B) To maintain peak performance for every 50 generators, there are 10 inspectors.

Step-by-step explanation:

For peak operational:

3 electricians for each generator. ⇒ 1 Generator : 3 Electricians

4 inspectors for every 60 electricians. ⇒ 60 Electricians : 4 Inspectors

Now, the number of generators the state has now = 50

Let us assume the number of inspectors required by the power plant = m

Now, from the given ratios:

For, 3 electrician there is 1 generator

⇒ For, 3 x 20 Electrician there is 1 x 20 Generators.

or, for 60 Electrician there are 20 Generators. (1)

Also, for 60 Electrician there are 4 inspectors. (2)

⇒From (1) and (2), we get:

For every 20 generators, there are 4 inspectors.

And, from what we have assumed For every 50 generators, there are m inspectors.

So, by the RATIO OF PROPORTION:

$\frac{20}{4} = \frac{50}{m}\\ \implies m = 50 \times\frac{4}{20} = 10$

or, m = 10

Hence, to maintain peak performance for every 50 generators, there are 10 inspectors.

The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Which equation can be used

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the longest side is 6.2 cm, and it is twice the length of the shortest, then we can write an equation as 2x=6.2, where x is the short side length.

Then, since a triangle has 3 sides, the medium side length is 14.5-6.2-x.

Hope that helped,

Use Simpson's Rule with n = 10 to approximate the area of the surface obtained by rotating the curve about the x-axis. Compare y

DiKsa [7]

The area of the surface is given exactly by the integral,

$\displaystyle\pi\int_0^5\sqrt{1+(y'(x))^2}\,\mathrm dx$

We have

$y(x)=\dfrac15x^5\implies y'(x)=x^4$

so the area is

$\displaystyle\pi\int_0^5\sqrt{1+x^8}\,\mathrm dx$

We split up the domain of integration into 10 subintervals,

[0, 1/2], [1/2, 1], [1, 3/2], ..., [4, 9/2], [9/2, 5]

where the left and right endpoints for the $i$ -th subinterval are, respectively,

$\ell_i=\dfrac{5-0}{10}(i-1)=\dfrac{i-1}2$

$r_i=\dfrac{5-0}{10}i=\dfrac i2$

with midpoint

$m_i=\dfrac{\ell_i+r_i}2=\dfrac{2i-1}4$

with $1\le i\le10$ .

Over each subinterval, we interpolate $f(x)=\sqrt{1+x^8}$ with the quadratic polynomial,

$p_i(x)=f(\ell_i)\dfrac{(x-m_i)(x-r_i)}{(\ell_i-m_i)(\ell_i-r_i)}+f(m_i)\dfrac{(x-\ell_i)(x-r_i)}{(m_i-\ell_i)(m_i-r_i)}+f(r_i)\dfrac{(x-\ell_i)(x-m_i)}{(r_i-\ell_i)(r_i-m_i)}$

Then

$\displaystyle\int_0^5f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=1}^{10}\int_{\ell_i}^{r_i}p_i(x)\,\mathrm dx$

It turns out that the latter integral reduces significantly to

$\displaystyle\int_0^5f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx\frac56\left(f(0)+4f\left(\frac{0+5}2\right)+f(5)\right)=\frac56\left(1+\sqrt{390,626}+\dfrac{\sqrt{390,881}}4\right)$

which is about 651.918, so that the area is approximately $651.918\pi\approx\boxed{2048}$ .

Compare this to actual value of the integral, which is closer to 1967.
