A car is being compacted into a rectangular solid. The volume is decreasing at a rate of 2 m3/sec. The length and width of the compactor are square, but the height is not the same length as the length and width. If the length and width walls move toward each other at a rate of 0.25 m/ sec, find the rate at which the height is changing when the length and width are 2 m and the height is 1.5 m.

Answers

Answer 1

Using implicit differentiation, it is found that the height is changing at a rate of -0.875 m/sec.

The volume of a rectangular solid of length l, width w and height h is given by:

[tex]V = lwh[/tex]

Applying implicit differentiation, the rate of change of the volume is given by:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = wh\frac{dl}{dt} + lh\frac{dw}{dt} + lw\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

In this problem:

Volume is decreasing at a rate of 2 m3/sec, hence [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = -2[/tex]The length and width walls move toward each other at a rate of 0.25 m/ sec, hence [tex]\frac{dl}{dt} = \frac{dw}{dt} = 0.25[/tex]Length and width are 2 m and the height is 1.5 m, hence [tex]l = w = 2, h = 1.5[/tex]

Then:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = wh\frac{dl}{dt} + lh\frac{dw}{dt} + lw\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]-2  = 2(1.5)(0.25) + 2(1.5)(0.25) + 2(2)\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]4\frac{dh}{dt} = -3.5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt} = -\frac{3.5}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt} = -0.875[/tex]

The height is changing at a rate of -0.875 m/sec.

Scores on a recent exam followed a normal distribution and letter grades will be assigned with 15% A, 35% B, 30% C, 15% D, and 5% F. Suppose that Sue took the exam and had a standardized score of 0.85. What letter grade will Sue get?

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that Sue will get a letter grade of B.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, Sue got a grade of 0.85, hence [tex]z = 0.85[/tex].

Looking at the z-table, z = 0.85 has a p-value of 0.8023, hence she is approximately in the top 20%, which is below the top 15% but above the top 50%, hence she got a letter grade of B.

A car's gas mileage is the distance it can go using 1 gallon of gas (measured in miles per gallon).

Based on the graph, what is this car's gas mileage? Explain.​

Answers

Answer:

20 mpg

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The car is traveling 20 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways you can solve this.

1) Since this is a graph of the car's gas mileage, all you have to do is look to find the miles for one gallon, which is plotted in this case. As you can see, for one, it is plotted halfway between 0 and 40, so that means the mile number would be 20. Looking at this, the car travels 20 miles per gallon.

2) You can also look at the point at the top that is clearly defined, and the point is (12, 240), 12 gallons used for 240 miles. To get the exact number of miles for one mile, you would divide 12 and 240 both by 12, which results in (1, 20). Since it is miles per gallon, the car gas mileage is 20 miles per gallon.

What are the solutions to this quadratic equation? x2+6x-5 A. B. C. D.

Answers

Factoring x2-6x+5

The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -6x its coefficient is -6 .
The last term, "the constant", is +5

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 5 = 5

Step-2 : Find two factors of 5 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -6 .

-5 + -1 = -6 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -5 and -1
x2 - 5x - 1x - 5

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (x-5)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
1 • (x-5)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x-1) • (x-5)
Which is the desired factorization

Theory - Roots of a product

2.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

2.2 Solve : x-1 = 0

Add 1 to both sides of the equation :

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1 Find the Vertex of y = x2-6x+5

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 3.0000

Plugging into the parabola formula 3.0000 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :
y = 1.0 * 3.00 * 3.00 - 6.0 * 3.00 + 5.0
or y = -4.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for : y = x2-6x+5
Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 3.00}
Vertex at {x,y} = { 3.00,-4.00}
x -Intercepts (Roots) :
Root 1 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}
Root 2 at {x,y} = { 5.00, 0.00}

A substance with a half life is decaying exponentially. If there are initially 12 grams of the substance and after 2 hours there are 7 grams, how many grams will remain after 3 hours? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, and do not include units.

Answers

If there initially 12 grams of the substance, 5.35 grams will remain after 3 hours

The initial amount, a = 12 grams

The amount after 2 hours, y = 7 grams

Time taken, x = 2 hours

First, let us calculate the decay constant, b

The formula for the final value of an exponential decay is:

[tex]y=a(1-b)^x[/tex]

Substitute y = 12, a = 7, and x = 2 into the equation to solve for b

[tex]7=12(1-b)^2\\\\\frac{7}{12} = (1-b)^2\\\\0.583=(1-b)^2\\\\\sqrt{0.583} = 1 - b\\\\0.764=1-b\\\\b=1-0.764\\\\b=0.236[/tex]

The decay constant, b = 0.236

After 3 hours:

Substitute x = 3, a = 12, and b = 0.236 to solve for y

[tex]y=a(1-b)^x\\\\y=12(1-0.236)^3\\\\y = 5.35[/tex]

Therefore, 5.35 grams will remain after 3 hours

Emily is on a Ferris wheel and her height is modeled by the equation
27
y = 30.48 cos2pi/4.25 (x - 2) + 34.27 where x = the number of minutes since the
ride began and y = the height in feet of Emily.
a) What is the radius of the Ferris wheel?
b) How long does it take Emily to make one rotation?
The radius is______
feet and it takes Emily_____
minutes for one rotation.

Answers

The given function for the height of the Ferris wheel is a sinusoidal equation.

a) The radius is 30.48 feet and it takes Emily 4.25 minutes for one rotation

Reasons:

The function that gives the height of the Ferris wheel is presented as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle y = 30.48 \cdot cos \frac{2\cdot \pi }{4.25} \cdot \left(x - 2 \right) + 34.27[/tex]

Where;

x = The number of minutes since the ride began

y = The height in feet of Emily

a) Required:

The radius of the Ferris wheel

Solution:

Comparing the given equation with the general equation of a Ferris wheel, we have;

[tex]\displaystyle f(t) = \mathbf{A \cdot trig\left(B \cdot \left(t + C\right) \right) + D}[/tex]

The amplitude of the Ferris wheel = A = 30.48

The amplitude, A = The largest distance from the center = The radius, r

A = r

Therefore;

The radius of the Ferris wheel, r = A = 30.48 feet

b) The time it takes the Emily to make one rotation is given by the period, T, of the motion of the Ferris wheel as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle T = \mathbf{\frac{2 \cdot \pi}{B}}[/tex]

By comparison, we have;

[tex]\displaystyle B = \frac{2 \cdot \pi}{4.25}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle The \ period, \, T = \frac{2 \cdot \pi}{\left(\frac{2 \cdot \pi}{4.25} \right)} = 4.25[/tex]

The time it takes Emily to make one rotation, T = 4.25 minutes
