A container manufacturer plans to make rectangular boxes whose bottom and top measure 2x by 3x. The container must contain 12in.3 The top and the bottom will cost $2.60 per square inch, while the four sides will cost $4.30 per square inch. What should the height of the container be so as to minimize cost? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the container be so as to minimize cost will be 1.20. inches.

How to calculate the height?

The volume of the box will be:

= 2x × 3x × h

= 6x²h

Volume = 6x²h

12 = 6x²h

h = 2x²

The cost function will be:

C = 2.60(2)(6x²) + 4.30(12x)h

C = 31.2x² + 51.6xh

Taking the derivative

62.4x + 51.6h

h = 1.20

Therefore, the height of the container be so as to minimize cost will be 1.20 inches.

The time at which the height of the object is 114 ft rounded to two decimal places is; 5.85 seconds

How to find the height of a projectile?

We are given;

Height of cliff = 95 ft

Initial velocity of throw = 95 ft/s

The height (in feet) of the object after t sec is given by;

h(t) = −19t² + 95t + 95.

Now, we want to find the time at which the height of the object is 114 ft. Thus, we will set h(t) = 114 ft to get;

114 = −19t² + 95t + 95.

Subtract 114 from both sides to get;

−19t² + 95t + 95 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

t = [-95 ± √(95² - 4(-19 * 95))]/(2 * -19)

t = [-95 ± √(16245)]/-38

t = (-95 ± 127.4559)/(-38)

t = (-95 - 127.4559)/-38 or (-95 + 127.4559)/-38

t = 5.85 s or -0.85

Time cannot be negative and so t = 5.85 seconds

Consider the spiral curves given parametrically by: (see picture and answer question)

Answers

a. The arc length is given by the integral

[tex]L(r) = \displaystyle \int_3^\infty \sqrt{x'(t)^2 + y'(t)^2} \, dt \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \int_3^\infty \sqrt{\left(\frac{t\cos(t) - r\sin(t)}{t^{r+1}}\right)^2 + \left(-\frac{t\sin(t) + r\cos(t)}{t^{r+1}}\right)^2} \, dt \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \int_3^\infty \sqrt{\frac{(t^2+r^2)\cos^2(t) + (t^2+r^2)\sin^2(t)}{\left(t^{r+1}\right)^2}} \, dt \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \boxed{\int_3^\infty \frac{\sqrt{t^2+r^2}}{t^{r+1}} \, dt}[/tex]

b. The integrand roughly behaves like

[tex]\dfrac t{t^{r+1}} = \dfrac1{t^r}[/tex]

so the arc length integral will converge for [tex]\boxed{r>1}[/tex].

c. When [tex]r=3[/tex], the integral becomes

[tex]L(3) = \displaystyle \int_3^\infty \frac{\sqrt{t^2+9}}{t^4} \, dt[/tex]

Pull out a factor of [tex]t^2[/tex] from under the square root, bearing in mind that [tex]\sqrt{x^2} = |x|[/tex] for all real [tex]x[/tex].

[tex]L(3) = \displaystyle \int_3^\infty \frac{\sqrt{t^2} \sqrt{1+\frac9{t^2}}}{t^4} \, dt \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \int_3^\infty \frac{|t| \sqrt{1+\frac9{t^2}}}{t^4} \, dt \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \int_3^\infty \frac{t \sqrt{1+\frac9{t^2}}}{t^4} \, dt \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \int_3^\infty \frac{\sqrt{1+\frac9{t^2}}}{t^3} \, dt[/tex]

since for [tex]3\le t<\infty[/tex], we have [tex]|t|=t[/tex].

Now substitute

[tex]s=1+\dfrac9{t^2} \text{ and } ds = -\dfrac{18}{t^3} \, dt[/tex]

Then the integral evaluates to

[tex]L(3) = \displaystyle -\frac1{18} \int_2^1 \sqrt{s} \, ds \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \frac1{18} \int_1^2 s^{1/2} \, ds \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \frac1{27} s^{3/2} \bigg|_1^2 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \frac{2^{3/2} - 1^{3/2}}{27} = \boxed{\frac{2\sqrt2-1}{27}}[/tex]

How to characterize and analyze a group of parametric functions

a) The arc length formula for 2-dimension parametric functions is defined below:

L = ∫ √[(dx / dt)² + (dy / dt)²] dt, for [α, β]         (1)

If we know that [tex]\dot x (t) = \frac{t \cdot \cos t - r \cdot \sin t}{t^{r+1}}[/tex], [tex]\dot y(t) = \frac{t\cdot \sin t + r\cdot \cos t}{t^{r + 1}}[/tex], α = 0 and β → + ∞ then their arc length formula is:

[tex]L = \int\limits^{\infty}_{3} {\sqrt{\left(\frac{t\cdot \cos t - r\cdot \sin t}{t^{r + 1}}\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{t\cdot \sin t + r\cdot \cos t}{t^{r+1}}\right)^{2}} } \, dt[/tex]

By algebraic handling and trigonometric formulae (cos ² t + sin² t = 1):

[tex]L = \int\limits^{\infty}_{3} {\frac{\sqrt{t^{2}+r^{2}}}{t^{r + 1}} } \, dt[/tex]      (2)

The improper integral in simplified form is equal to [tex]L = \int\limits^{\infty}_{3} {\frac{\sqrt{t^{2}+r^{2}}}{t^{r + 1}} } \, dt[/tex].

b) By ratio comparison criterion, we notice that √(t² + r²) is similar to √t² = t and [tex]\frac{\sqrt{t^{2}+r^{2}}}{t^{r + 1}}[/tex] is similar to [tex]\frac{t}{t^{r +1}} = \frac{1}{t^{r}}[/tex].

The integral found in part a) has a finite length if and only the governing grade of the denominator is greater that the governing grade of the numerator. and according to the ratio comparson criterion, the absolute value of the ratio is greater than 0 and less than 1. Therefore, r > 1 for a spiral with finite length.

c) Now we proceed to integrate the function:

L = ∫ [√(t² + 9) / t⁴] dt, for [3, + ∞].

L = ∫ [t · √(1 + 9 / t²) / t⁴] dt, for [3, + ∞].

By using the algebraic substitutions: u = 1 + 9 / t², du = - (18 / t³) dt → - (1 / 18) du.

L = ∫ √u du, for [3, + ∞].

L = - (1 / 9) · √(u³), for [3, + ∞].

L = - (1 / 9) · [√(1 + 9 / t²)³], for [3, + ∞].

L = - (1 / 9) · [√(2³) - √(1³)]

L = - (1 / 9) · (2√2 - 1)

L = (1 - 2√2) / 9

The length of the spiral when r = 3 is (1 - 2√2) / 9 units.

Answers

Considering the definition of combination, if no meal is repeated, 210 different meal arrangements are possible.

What is combination

Combinations of m elements taken from n to n (m≥n) are called all the possible groupings that can be made with the m elements in such a way that not all the elements enter; the order does not matter and the elements are not repeated.

To calculate the number of combinations, the following formula is applied:

[tex]C=\frac{m!}{n!(m-n)!}[/tex]

The term "n!" is called the "factorial of n" and is the multiplication of all numbers from "n" to 1.

Different meal arrangements

Joseph is planning dinners for the next 4 nights. There are 10 meals to choose from and no meal is repeated.

So, you know that:

m= 10n= 4

[tex]C=\frac{10!}{4!(10-4)!}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]C=\frac{10!}{4!6!}[/tex]

Answer:

98 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In a quadrilateral, we have 4 angles whose sum is 360 degrees which can be derived using the Exterior Angle Sum Theorem which essentially states that any convex polynomial will have a sum of 360 degrees for it's exterior angles.

Since we know that two of the angles are equal, we can just represent angle A and D as "x", and since they're congruent, and there is two of them, the sum can be represented as "2x"

So using all the known values we can set up the following equation:

[tex]2x+64+100=360[/tex]

Simplify on the left side

[tex]2x+164=360[/tex]

Subtract 164 from both sides

[tex]2x=196[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]x=98[/tex]

Since we know that "x" represents both angle A and B, then the angle A is 98 degrees.

how do i write 4x+5y=20 in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer:

Y=mx+b

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is y = -4/5x + 4.

We know the general form for slope intercept form is :

y = mx + c

The given equation is in standard form.

4x + 5y = 20

Bring 4x to the other side by subtracting 4x on both sides.

4x + 5y - 4x = 20 - 4x

5y = -4x + 20

Divide 5 on both sides to isolate the variable y.

5y x 1/5 = 1/5 x (-4x + 20)

y = -4/5x + 4

a)a+1
b)a-1
C)a+2
d)a+3
e)a+4

Answers

The average of the five consecutive numbers ending with b in discuss when expressed in terms of a is; Choice D; a+3.

What is the average of five consecutive integers ending with b?

First, since it was given in the task content that the average of six positive consecutive odd integers starting with a is equal to b, it therefore follows that;

(a+a+2+a+4+a+6+a+8+a+10)/6 = b

6b=6a+30

b=a+5

Also, let the average of the consecutive intergers ending with b be denoted by; x.

(b+b-1+b-2+b-3+b-4)/5 = x

=(5b-10)/5

=b–2

The average, x=b – 2 (where b = a-5)

Ultimately, the value of the required average is; = a+5-2 = a+3.

Find the savings plan balance after 18 months with an APR of 5% and monthly payments of $200.

Answers

The savings plan balance after 18 months is $3,730.38

What is an ordinary annuity?

An ordinary annuity means that periodic savings are made at the end of each period unlike an annuity due where payments are made at the beginning of each period.

To determine the savings plan balance after 18 months, we need to make use of the future value formula of an ordinary annuity provided below:

FV=monthly payment*(1+r)^N-1/r

FV=future value after 18 months=unknown

monthly payment=$200

r=monthly interest rate=5%/12=0.00416666666666667

N=number of monthly payments in 18 months=18

FV=$200*(1+0.00416666666666667)^18-1/0.00416666666666667

FV=$200*(1.00416666666666667)^18-1/0.00416666666666667

FV=$200*(1.07771621094479000-1)/0.00416666666666667

FV=$200*0.07771621094479000/0.00416666666666667

FV=$3,730.38
