Answer:

The cost of an order of large fries is $\$ 2.10$ and the cost of a hamburger is $\$3.25$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of an order of large fries be $\$ x$ .

Then, the cost of a hamburger is $\$ x+\$1.15$ .

Bill bought two hamburgers and an order of large fries for a total of $\$ 8.60$ .

So, $2(x+1.15)+x=8.60$

$\Rightarrow 2x+2.30+x=8.60$

$\Rightarrow 3x=8.60-2.30$

$\Rightarrow 3x=6.30$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{6.30}{3}$

$\Rightarrow x=2.10$

So, the cost of an order of large fries is $\$ 2.10$ .

And, the cost of a hamburger is $\$2.10+\$1.15=\$3.25$ .

Hence, the cost of an order of large fries is $\$ 2.10$ and the cost of a hamburger is $\$3.25$ .

g A manufacturer is making cylindrical cans that hold 300 cm3. The dimensions of the can are not mandated, so to save manufactur

sdas [7]

Answer:

The dimensions that minimize the cost of materials for the cylinders have radii of about 3.628 cm and heights of about 7.256 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

A cylindrical can holds 300 cubic centimeters, and we want to find the dimensions that minimize the cost for materials: that is, the dimensions that minimize the surface area.

Recall that the volume for a cylinder is given by:

$\displaystyle V = \pi r^2h$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle (300) = \pi r^2 h$

Solve for <em>h: </em>

$\displaystyle \frac{300}{\pi r^2} = h$

Recall that the surface area of a cylinder is given by:

$\displaystyle A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh$

We want to minimize this equation. To do so, we can find its critical points, since extrema (minima and maxima) occur at critical points.

First, substitute for <em>h</em>.

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} A &= 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r\left(\frac{300}{\pi r^2}\right) \\ \\ &=2\pi r^2 + \frac{600}{ r} \end{aligned}$

Find its derivative:

$\displaystyle A' = 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2}$

Solve for its zero(s):

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (0) &= 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2} \\ \\ 4\pi r - \frac{600}{r^2} &= 0 \\ \\ 4\pi r^3 - 600 &= 0 \\ \\ \pi r^3 &= 150 \\ \\ r &= \sqrt[3]{\frac{150}{\pi}} \approx 3.628\text{ cm}\end{aligned}$

Hence, the radius that minimizes the surface area will be about 3.628 centimeters.

Then the height will be:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} h&= \frac{300}{\pi\left( \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{150}{\pi}}\right)^2} \\ \\ &= \frac{60}{\pi \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{180}{\pi^2}}}\approx 7.25 6\text{ cm} \end{aligned}$

In conclusion, the dimensions that minimize the cost of materials for the cylinders have radii of about 3.628 cm and heights of about 7.256 cm.

What survival rate in the 10th year would make the average of loss over the 10 year period equal to 38.0%

Marat540 [252]

Answer: 63%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First step</u>

Find the 10th year rate of loss that will make the average of loss over the 10 years to equal 38.0%.

Assume this rate is x;

$\frac{(36.2 + 29.0 + 46.2 + 37.5 + 40.9 + 40.0 + 32.6 + 40.5 + 40.1 + x)}{10} = 38.0\\\\\frac{343 + x}{10} = 38\\\\x = 380 - 343\\\\x = 37$

x = 37%

<u>Second step - Survival rate</u>

The survival rate is calculated by;

= 1 - rate of loss

= 1 - 37%

= 63%
