Question: Your factory is going to manufacture a rectangular container which has a fixed capacity V, with a square base and no lid. If the container is made of a minimum amount of iron sheet, find the ratio of the height of the box, h to the length of a side of the square base, x.
Tires are among the most commonly replaced parts on vehicles. They are not cheap and shopping for them is confusing. When we look for tires, many of us pay attention to the warranty that accompanies them as a way of getting reliable and long-lasting tires - sometimes paying a hefty premium for high performance.
Tire manufacturers test their tires in house. Tires are inflated to the optimal pressure and then the tires spin on specially designed treadmills.
The thread-life warranties are presented in a mileage estimate. If a tire has worn out evenly across the tread well before its estimated mileage limit, it may qualify for replacement.
Of course, the tire manufacturer would like to minimize warranty replacements by making sure that their tires meet the mileage standard. To this end, the production manager of a tire company is testing their mileage warranty of 30,000 miles. To do the test, 60 tires are put through the treadmill test. When the tires are worn down to the 2/32nd…

- not understanding what it is asking for pls help tyarrow_forwardPls Answer Within 1 Hour, Thank You! Supercavitation is a propulsion technology for undersea vehicles that can greatly increase their speed. It occurs above approximately 50 meters per second when pressure drops sufficiently to allow the water to dissociate into water vapor, forming a gas bubble behind the vehicle. When the gas bubble completely encloses the vehicle, supercavitation is said to occur. Eight tests were conducted on a scale model of an undersea vehicle in a towing basin with the average observed speed x = 102.2 meters per second. Assume that speed is normally distributed with known standard deviation σ = 4 meters per second. a) Construct a 95% confidence interval on the population mean.b) Construct a 90% upper confidence bound on the population mean.c) Test the hypothesis H0:μ = 100 versus H1: μ <100 using α = 0.05.d) Test the hypothesis H0:μ = 100 versus H1: μ >100 using α = 0.10.arrow_forwardParellelogram EFGH is a dilation of parellelogram ABCD.

- A pet toy manufacturer is designing a plastic ball for dogs that will float in water. In order for the ball to float, it must have a density that is less than 1 gram per milliliter (the density of water). The approved design has a mass of 115 grams and a density of 0.600 gram per milliliter. Use the density formula d=mvd=mv to determine the radius of the ball. The ball has a radius of r ≈ _______________ centimeters. Round your answer to nearest hundredth (2 decimal places).arrow_forwardWater flows through a pipe at a rate of 39 quarts per minute.

To simplify this question, assume that the instrument you use gives you one measurement per fragment in grams/cm3. Assume that you have 5 measurements from fragments found at the crime scene and 7 measurements from bullets found with the suspect. (d) You run the analysis and the p-value is 0.9, α = 0.001 and β = 0.01. If you fail to reject H0, What is the probability that you made the wrong decision in this case? (e) Under what conditions could an expert witness give the following statement based solely on lead bullet statistical evidence: “The bullet fragments must have come from the same box or from another box that would have been made by the same company on the same day.”arrow_forward
