Answer:

r = 1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solid = Cylinder + 2 hemisphere

Volume = 10cm^3

Required

Determine the radius (r) that minimizes the surface area

First, we need to determine the volume of the shape.

Volume of Cylinder (V1) is:

V_1 = \pi r^2h

Volume of 2 hemispheres (V2) is:

V_2 = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 +\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3

V_2 = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Volume of the solid is:

V = V_1 + V_2

V = \pi r^2h + \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Substitute 10 for V

10 = \pi r^2h + \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Next, we make h the subject

\pi r^2h = 10 -  \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Solve for h

h = \frac{10}{\pi r^2} -  \frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 }{\pi r^2}

h = \frac{10}{\pi r^2} -  \frac{4\pi r^3 }{3\pi r^2}

h = \frac{10}{\pi r^2} -  \frac{4r }{3}

Next, we determine the surface area

Surface area (A1) of the cylinder:

Note that the cylinder is covered by the 2 hemisphere.

So, we only calculate the surface area of the curved surface.

i.e.

A_1 = 2\pi rh

Surface Area (A2) of 2 hemispheres is:

A_2 = 2\pi r^2+2\pi r^2

A_2 = 4\pi r^2

Surface Area (A) of solid is

A = A_1 + A_2

A = 2\pi rh + 4\pi r^2

Substitute h = \frac{10}{\pi r^2} -  \frac{4r }{3}

A = 2\pi r(\frac{10}{\pi r^2} -  \frac{4r }{3}) + 4\pi r^2

Open bracket

A = \frac{2\pi r*10}{\pi r^2} -  \frac{2\pi r*4r }{3} + 4\pi r^2

A = \frac{2*10}{r} -  \frac{2\pi r*4r }{3} + 4\pi r^2

A = \frac{20}{r} -  \frac{8\pi r^2 }{3} + 4\pi r^2

A = \frac{20}{r} +  \frac{-8\pi r^2 }{3} + 4\pi r^2

Take LCM

A = \frac{20}{r} +  \frac{-8\pi r^2  + 12\pi r^2}{3}

A = \frac{20}{r} +  \frac{4\pi r^2}{3}

Differentiate w.r.t r

A' = -\frac{20}{r^2} +  \frac{8\pi r}{3}

Equate A' to 0

-\frac{20}{r^2} +  \frac{8\pi r}{3}  = 0

Solve for r

\frac{8\pi r}{3}  = \frac{20}{r^2}

Cross Multiply

8\pi r * r^2 = 20 * 3

8\pi  r^3 = 60

Divide both sides by 8\pi

r^3 = \frac{60}{8\pi}

r^3 = \frac{15}{2\pi}

Take \pi = 22/7

r^3 = \frac{15}{2 * 22/7}

r^3 = \frac{15}{44/7}

r^3 = \frac{15*7}{44}

r^3 = \frac{105}{44}

Take cube roots of both sides

r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{105}{44}}

r = \sqrt[3]{2.38636363636}

r = 1.33632535155

r = 1.34 (approximated)

<em>Hence, the radius is 1.34cm</em>

Mr and mrs smith buy tickets for themselves and their four children. the cost of an adult ticket is ? 6 more than the adult tick
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

child's ticket =  4.75        adult ticket=10.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of an adult ticket is 6 more than that of a child ticket, so will be denoted by c+6. Now, we are told that the cost of four child tickets and two adult tickets is 40.50, so we can put this in an equation and solve for c:

(c+6)+(c+6)+c+c+c+c=40.50

6c+12=40.50

6c=28.50

c=4.75

Therefore the cost of a child's ticket (c) is 4.75 and the cost of an adult ticket (c+6) is 10.75.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 clothing choices and 3 colors.

4x3=12

This means you have a 1 in 12 chance of getting an orange hat.

This presupposes that there are EQUAL numbers of pieces and colors.  (111 of each).

the first four terms of a geometric progression are 2,10,50,250 a) write down the common ratio of the progression b) write down
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The common ratio is 5 and the 5th term is 1250

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio is given by

r=U(2)/U (1)

=10/2

=5

The fifth term

U (n)=ar^n-1

U(5)=2(5)^5-1

=2×5^4

=2×625

=1250
