A toy manufacturer that 6% of its products are defective. if 550 toys are producted in one day, how many we be defective

Mathematics
1 answer:
weqwewe [10]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

If 550 toys are made in a day, and 6% of them are defective, about 33 of them will be defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of toys that will be defective, move the decimal of the percentage 2 place to the left. So the 6% will turn into 0.06, then you would multiply 550 by 0.06. Resulting in about 33 toys being defective.

6% = 0.06

-

550 x 0.06 = 33

A rectangle has a perimeter of 30 ft. Find a function that models its area A in terms of the length x of one of its sides. What
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other side of the rectangle be y. The perimeter of the rectangle is expressed as P = 2(x+y)

Given P = 30ft, on substituting P = 30 into the expression;

30 = 2(x+y)

x+y = 15

y = 15-x

Also since the area of the rectangle is xy;

A = xy

Substitute y = 15-x into the area;

A = x(15-x)

A = 15x-x²

The function that models its area A in terms of the length x of one of its sides is A = 15x-x²

The side of length x yields the greatest area when dA/dx = 0

dA/dx = 15-2x

15-2x = 0

-2x = -15

x = -15/-2

x = 7.5 ft

Hence the side length, x that yields the greatest area is 7.5ft.

Since y = 15-x

y = 15-7.5

y = 7.5

Area of the rectangle = 7.5*7.5

Area of the rectangle = 56.25ft²

.A ladder is leaning against a wall. The top of the ladder is 4 feet above the ground
Scorpion4ik [409]

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a triangle with the wall and ground.

The side of the triangle opposite of the 60° angle is 4 feet.

To find the length of the ladder (the hypotenuse), use sine.

sine = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 60° = 4 / L

L = 4 / sin 60°

L = 4 / (√3 / 2)

L = 8 / √3

L = 8√3 / 3

L ≈ 4.619 feet

To find the distance from the wall, use tangent.

tangent = opposite / adjacent

tan 60° = 4 / x

x = 4 / tan 60°

x = 4 / √3

x = 4√3 / 3

x ≈ 2.309 feet

Taya2010 [7]
<span>Treat the surface of the water as 0. The initial height of the weight was 4 ft above the surface of the water, therefore making it have an initial height of +4. If it travels 12 ft downward to hit the bottom of the pool, that means its height decreased by 12, so its falling is -12. To calculate the depth of the pool, use initial height minus drop distance, so 4 - 12. The depth of the pool is 8 ft.</span>
