Consider the baggage check-in process of a small airline. Check-in data indicate that from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m., 220 passengers che

cked in. Moreover, based on counting the number of passengers waiting in line, airport management found that the average number of passengers waiting for check-in was 27.?How long did the average passenger have to wait in line?

Answer:

The passengers have an average of 8.15 minutes to wait in line

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Little's law

Average Inventory = Average Flow Time * Average Flow Rate

Average Inventory = 220 passengers

Average Flow Rate = 27

Average Flow time =?

So,

220 = Average Flow Time * 27

Average Flow Time = 220/27

Average Flow Time = 8.14814814814

Average Flow Time = 8.15 --------- Approximated

So the average wait time for a passenger is 8.15 minutes

The height of a cone is twice the radius of its base.
fredd [130]

Answer: 2/3πx³

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the cone be represented by x.

Since the height of the cone is twice the radius of its base, the height will be: = 2x

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

where,

r = x

h = 2x

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

= 1/3 × π × x² × 2x

= 1/3 × π × x² × 2x

= 1/3 × π × 2x³

= 2/3πx³

Therefore, the correct answer is 2/3πx³.

How do you graph the function f(x)=−1/4x−2?
Georgia [21]
Welll the y-intercept is negative 2 so on the y axis the first point is negative 2. 1/4 is the rise over run so you would go up from your first point one unit and over to the left four units or vise versa down one unit and over to the right four units, or the image

The circumference of a sphere was measured to be 76 cm with a possible error of 0.5 cm. (a) Use differentials to estimate the ma
andreev551 [17]

The maximum error in the calculated surface area is 24.19cm² and the relative error is 0.0132.

Given that the circumference of a sphere is 76cm and error is 0.5cm.

The formula of the surface area of a sphere is A=4πr².

Differentiate both sides with respect to r and get

dA÷dr=2×4πr

dA÷dr=8πr

dA=8πr×dr

The circumference of a sphere is C=2πr.

From above the find the value of r is

r=C÷(2π)

By using the error in circumference relation to error in radius by:

Differentiate both sides with respect to r as

dr÷dr=dC÷(2πdr)

1=dC÷(2πdr)

dr=dC÷(2π)

The maximum error in surface area is simplified as:

Substitute the value of dr in dA as

dA=8πr×(dC÷(2π))

Cancel π from both numerator and denominator and simplify it

dA=4rdC

Substitute the value of r=C÷(2π) in above and get

dA=4dC×(C÷2π)

dA=(2CdC)÷π

Here, C=76cm and dC=0.5cm.

Substitute this in above as

dA=(2×76×0.5)÷π

dA=76÷π

dA=24.19cm².

Find relative error as the relative error is between the value of the Area and the maximum error, therefore:

\begin{aligned}\frac{dA}{A}&=\frac{8\pi rdr}{4\pi r^2}\\ \frac{dA}{A}&=\frac{2dr}{r}\end

As above its found that r=C÷(2π) and r=dC÷(2π).

Substitute this in the above

\begin{aligned}\frac{dA}{A}&=\frac{\frac{2dC}{2\pi}}{\frac{C}{2\pi}}\\ &=\frac{2dC}{C}\\ &=\frac{2\times 0.5}{76}\\ &=0.0132\end

Hence, the maximum error in the calculated surface area with the circumference of a sphere was measured to be 76 cm with a possible error of 0.5 cm is 24.19cm² and the relative error is 0.0132.

Two cables support a 800​-lb ​weight, as shown. Find the tension in each cable.
jeka94

Answer:

  • 892 lb (right)
  • 653 lb (left)

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight is in equilibrium, so the net force on it is zero. If R and L represent the tensions in the Right and Left cables, respectively ...

  Rcos(45°) +Lcos(75°) = 800

  Rsin(45°) -Lsin(75°) = 0

Solving these equations by Cramer's Rule, we get ...

  R = 800sin(75°)/(cos(75°)sin(45°) +cos(45°)sin(75°))

     = 800sin(75°)/sin(120°) ≈ 892 . . . pounds

  L = 800sin(45°)/sin(120°) ≈ 653 . . . pounds

The tension in the right cable is about 892 pounds; about 653 pounds in the left cable.

_____

This suggests a really simple generic solution. For angle α on the right and β on the left and weight w, the tensions (right, left) are ...

  (right, left) = w/sin(α+β)×(sin(β), sin(α))
