Suppose a home improvement contractor is painting the walls and ceiling of a rectangular room. The volume of the room is 288 cubic feet. The cost of wall paint is $0.06 per square foot and the cost of ceiling paint is $0.16 per square foot. Let x, y, and z be the length, width, and height of a rectangular room respectively. Identify the room dimensions that result in a minimum cost for the paint and use these dimensions to find the minimum cost for the paint. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The minimum cost is $17.30c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]V = 288[/tex] --- Volume

[tex]C_1 = 0.06[/tex] --- cost of wall paint

[tex]C_2 = 0.16[/tex] ---cost of ceiling paint

Required

Minimum cost of paint

The volume is calculated as:

[tex]V =xyz[/tex]

Substitute 288 for V

[tex]288 =xyz[/tex]

Make z the subject

[tex]z = \frac{288}{xy}[/tex]

The surface area is calculated as:

[tex]Area = 2(yz + xz) + xy[/tex]

Because xy represent the dimension of the ceiling and the opposite of the ceiling (the floor) will not be painted. Hence, it does not require a coefficient of 2

The cost is:

[tex]C = 0.06 * 2(yz + xz) + 0.16 * xy[/tex]

Substitute [tex]z = \frac{288}{xy}[/tex]

[tex]C = 0.06 * 2(y*\frac{288}{xy} + x*\frac{288}{xy}) + 0.16 * xy[/tex]

[tex]C = 0.06 * 2(\frac{288}{x} + \frac{288}{y}) + 0.16 * xy[/tex]

[tex]C = 0.12(\frac{288}{x} + \frac{288}{y}) + 0.16 * xy[/tex]

[tex]C = (\frac{34.56}{x} + \frac{34.56}{y}) + 0.16 * xy[/tex]

[tex]C = (\frac{34.56}{x} + \frac{34.56}{y}) + 0.16 xy[/tex]

Differentiate w.r.t x and y

[tex]C_x = -\frac{34.56}{x^2} + 0.16y[/tex]

[tex]C_y = -\frac{34.56}{y^2} + 0.16x[/tex]

By comparison: [tex]x = y[/tex]

Set them equal to 0

[tex]C_y = -\frac{34.56}{y^2} + 0.16x=0[/tex]

[tex]-\frac{34.56}{y^2} + 0.16x=0\\[/tex]

Substitute x for y

[tex]-\frac{34.56}{x^2} + 0.16x=0[/tex]

[tex]0.16x=\frac{34.56}{x^2}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]0.16x^3 = 34.56[/tex]

[tex]x^3 = \frac{34.56}{0.16}[/tex]

[tex]x^3 = 216[/tex]

Take the cube root of both sides

[tex]x = \sqrt[3]{216}[/tex]

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

[tex]x=y= 6[/tex]

Substitute 6 for x and for y in [tex]C = (\frac{34.56}{x} + \frac{34.56}{y}) + 0.16 xy[/tex]

[tex]C = (\frac{34.56}{6} + \frac{34.56}{6}) + 0.16 * 6* 6[/tex]

[tex]C = (\frac{2*34.56}{6}) + 5.76[/tex]

[tex]C = 11.52 + 5.76[/tex]

[tex]C = 17.28[/tex]

[tex]C = 17.3[/tex] --- approximated

Beryllium is an extremely lightweight metal that is used in many industries, such as aerospace and electronics. Long-term exposure to beryllium can cause people to become sensitized. Once an individual is sensitized, continued exposure can result in chronic beryllium disease, which involves scarring of the lungs. In a study of the effects of exposure to beryllium disease, which involves scarring of the lungs. In a study of the effects of exposure to beryllium, workers were categorized by their duration of exposure (in years) and by their disease status (diseased, sensitized, or normal.) The results were as follows:

Duration of Exposure
< 1 1 to < 5 >= 5
Diseased 12 10 18
Sensitized 14 18 13
Normal 66 142 210

Required:
a. Compute the expected frequencies of diseased workers.
b. Compute the expected frequencies of sensitized workers.
c. How many degrees of freedom are there?

Answers

Answer:

1. Has been answered below

2. Degree of freedom is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Row 1: 12+10+18 = 40

Row 2: 14+18+13 = 45

Row 3: 66+142+210 = 418

Grand total = 40+45+418 = 503

Column 1 : 12+14+66 = 92

Column 2: 10+18+142 = 170

Column 3: 18+13+210 = 241

Total = 92+170+241 = 503

Expected frequencies of diseased workers

92x40/503 = 7.316

170x40/503 = 13.52

241 x 40/503 = 19.165

Expected frequencies of sensitized workers

92x45/503 = 8.23

170x45/503 = 15.20

241x 45/503 = 21.56

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given slope (m) = -3/4

and x1 = 6

and y1 = 4


Solve for b (y2) using x2 = 0.
m = -3/4 = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-3/4 = (4-y1)/(6-0)

-3/4 = (4-y1)/6

-(3/4)*6 = 4 - y1

-18/4 = 4 - y1

y1 = b = 16/4 + 18/4 = 34/4 = 8 1/2

Answers

Given:

The quadratic equation is

[tex]-2x^2-y+10x-7=0[/tex]

To find:

The vertex of the given quadratic equation.

Solution:

If a quadratic function is [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex], then

[tex]Vertex=\left(\dfrac{-b}{2a},f(\dfrac{-b}{2a})\right)[/tex]

We have,

[tex]-2x^2-y+10x-7=0[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]-2x^2+10x-7=y[/tex]

[tex]y=-2x^2+10x-7[/tex]           ...(i)

Here, [tex]a=-2,b=10,c=-7[/tex].

[tex]\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-10}{2(-2)}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-10}{-4}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]y=-2(\dfrac{5}{2})^2+10(\dfrac{5}{2})-7[/tex]

[tex]y=-2(\dfrac{25}{4})+\dfrac{50}{2}-7[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{-50}{4}+25-7[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{-25}{2}+18[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]y=\dfrac{-25+36}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{11}{2}[/tex]

So, the vertex of the given quadratic equation is [tex]\left(\dfrac{5}{2},\dfrac{11}{2}\right)[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

It takes 13.3 years to amount $15700 from the principal $6500.

Given that, a person invests 6500 dollars in a bank. the bank pays 6.75% interest compounded semi-annually.

What is the compound interest?

Compound interest is the interest on savings calculated on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods.

The formula used to find the compound interest = A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Now, 15700 =6500(1+6.75/2×100)^2t

⇒ 15700/6500=(1+6.75/200)^2t

⇒ 15700/6500=1.03375^2t

⇒ 2.415=1.03375^2t

Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation to remove the variable from the exponent.

Exact Form:

t=ln(2.415)/2ln(1.03375)

Decimal Form:

t=13.28141707

≈ 13.3 years

Therefore, it takes 13.3 years to amount $15700 from the principal $6500.

[tex](b)[/tex] [tex]\frac{2sin\theta}{cos\theta} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

(c) Addition and Quotient identity

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{2sec\theta}{csc\theta} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex] --- The expression missing from the question

Solving (a): Write the left hand side in terms of sin and cosine

In trigonometry:

[tex]sec\theta = \frac{1}{cos\theta}[/tex]

and

[tex]csc\theta = \frac{1}{sin\theta}[/tex]

So, the expression becomes:

[tex]\frac{2 * \frac{1}{cos\theta}}{\frac{1}{sin\theta}} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\frac{2}{cos\theta}}{\frac{1}{sin\theta}} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\frac{2}{cos\theta}/\frac{1}{sin\theta} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Solving (b): Simplify

[tex]\frac{2}{cos\theta}/\frac{1}{sin\theta} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Change / to *

[tex]\frac{2}{cos\theta}*\frac{sin\theta}{1} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2sin\theta}{cos\theta} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Solving (c): The property used

To do this, we need to further simplify

[tex]\frac{2sin\theta}{cos\theta} + \frac{4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\frac{2sin\theta+ 4sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Add the numerator

[tex]\frac{6sin\theta}{cos\theta} =6tan\theta[/tex]

Apply quotient identity

[tex]\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} = tan\theta[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\frac{6sin\theta}{cos\theta} = 6tan\theta[/tex]
