A small bank vault is being designed in the shape of a rectangular prism. The vault’s sides and top should all be 3 feet thick. The outer length of the vault should be twice the outer width. The outer height should be the same as the outer width. What should the outer dimensions of the vault be if is to have 972 cubic feet of space?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:   24 ft by 12 ft by 12 ft

This represents the exterior length, width and height in that order.

============================================================

Work Shown:

The steps you have written so far are 100% correct.

From there, you multiply the interior width, length and height to get the interior volume 972. Solve for x

So,

(length)*(width)*(height) = volume

(2x-6)(x-6)(x-3) = 972

(2x-6)(x^2-9x+18) = 972

2x(x^2-9x+18)-6(x^2-9x+18) = 972

2x^3-18x^2+36x-6x^2+54x-108 = 972

2x^3-24x^2+90x-108 = 972

2x^3-24x^2+90x-108-972 = 0

2x^3-24x^2+90x-1080 = 0

2(x^3-12x^2+45x-540) = 0

x^3-12x^2+45x-540 = 0

From here, we can use the factor by grouping method

x^3-12x^2+45x-540 = 0

(x^3-12x^2)+(45x-540) = 0

x^2(x-12)+45(x-12) = 0

(x^2+45)(x-12) = 0

Setting each factor equal to 0 leads to....

x^2+45 = 0 doesn't have any real valued solutions for x, since sqrt(-45) is a complex number. We'll ignore this case and move on.x-12 = 0 solves to x = 12

So x = 12 is the only solution here.

If x = 12, then we have these exterior dimensions:

length = 2x = 2*12 = 24 ftwidth = x = 12 ftheight = x = 12 ft

The outer dimensions are 24 ft by 12 ft by 12 ft

From that, the inner dimensions would be:

L = 24-6 = 18 ft

W = 12-6 = 6 ft

H = 12-3 = 9 ft.

Then note how L*W*H = 18*6*9 = 972 ft^3 to help confirm the answer.

Use the given area A of the rectangle to find the value of x . A rectangle with its length labeled left-parenthesis 4 x plus 3 right-parenthesis feet and width labeled left-parenthesis 4 x minus 5 right-parenthesis feet. The area of the rectangle is 209 square feet.

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = (4x + 3) feet

Width = (4x - 5 )feet  

Area = Length x Breadth

209 = (4x + 3)(4x - 5)

209 = 4x( 4x -5) + 3 (4x -5)

[tex]209 = 16x^2 -20x +12x -15\\\\0 = 16x^2 -8x -15 -209\\\\16x^2 -8x -224 = 0[/tex]

[tex]Quadratic \ Equation \ with a = 16, b = -8, c = -224 \\\\x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}\\\\Substitute \ a, b, c \ in \ the \ equation.\\\\x = \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}, x =\frac{-b \ - \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{8+ \sqrt{64 +14336}}{32}, x = \frac{8- \sqrt{64 +14336}}{32}\\\\x = \frac{8+ \sqrt{14400}}{32}, x = \frac{8-\sqrt{14400}}{32}\\\\x = \frac{8+120 }{32}, x= \frac{8-120}{32}\\\\x = \frac{128}{32} , x = \frac{-112}{32}\\\\x = 4 , x = \frac{-7}{2}[/tex]

Since measure of length or width cannot be negative, we take x = 4

Answer:

The cofunction of [tex]\tan \frac{2\pi}{11}[/tex] is [tex]\cot \frac{7\pi}{22}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

In trigonometry, a function is a cofunction of another if and only if [tex]f(A) = g(B)[/tex], where A and B are complementary angles. In this case, the complementary function of a tangent function must be a cotangent function, this is:

[tex]\tan \frac{2\pi}{11} = \cot \left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \frac{2\pi}{11} \right)[/tex]

[tex]\tan \frac{2\pi}{11} = \cot \frac{7\pi}{22}[/tex]

Answer:

1.   a = 32.96    m∠B = 21°   b = 12.74

2.   x = 24.99

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   Use the law of sines:

a/sin 112 = 26/sin 47

a = 26 sin 112/sin 47

a = 32.96

m∠B = 180 - 47 - 112 = 21°

b/sin 21 = 26/sin 47

b = 26 sin 21/sin 47

b = 12.74

2.   Use the law of cosines

[tex]x^{2} = 17^{2} + 11^{2} - 2(17)(11) cos 125[/tex]

    =  289 + 121 - 374 cos 125

dα /dt  = -  0.028 rad /sec     or  dα /dt  = - 1.59 °

El signo menos significa que el angulo va decresiendo

Step-by-step explanation:

La escalera, la pared vertical y el pié de la escalera y la pared forman un triangulo rectangulo. En ese triangulo

cos α   (  α  angulo que forma la escalera con el piso )

cos α =   x / L

Tomando derivadas con respecto al tiempo (L es constante ) se tiene:

- sen α  *  dα / dt   =  dx/ dt / L

Cuando  el extremo superior de la escalera está a 18 pies del piso, entonces  sen α  =  18 / 30  =  0.6

dx/dt = 1/2 pie/sec

dα/dt  = - (1/2)/ L* 0.6

dα /dt  = -  0.5 / 18

dα /dt  = -  0.028 rad /sec     or  dα /dt  = - 1.59 °

El signo menos significa que el angulo va decresiendo

Reason -

The mean value, or expected value, of a discrete random variable X is given by the following equation:

μ = E(x) = ∑ x p(x)

And

The variance of a discrete random variable is given by the following formula:

σ²=∑ (x−μ)² P(x)

please answer pleaseee If two cards are chosen from a standard deck of cards one at a time and then placed back in the deck, the probability of choosing two 5s is

Answers

Answer:   1/169

============================================================

Explanation:

For now, let's focus on the probability of getting one "5".

There are 4 of these cards (one of each suit) and 52 total. The probability of getting the card we're after is 4/52 = 1/13.

We can think of it like saying "if we focus on one suit only, then there's a 1 in 13 chance of getting a '5' from this pile".

The probability of getting two "5"s in a row is (1/13)*(1/13) = 1/169 assuming we put the first card back. If the first card is not put back, then we would compute it like so: (4/52)*(3/51). I'll leave it unevaluated for you to try out as practice.

Side note: 1/169 = 0.0059 = 0.59% approximately
