A pool with a square bottom is to have a volume of 2000 cubic feet. The owners plan to use a fancy tile to complete the pool. The sides of the pool will cost $80 per square foot and the bottom of the pool will cost $40 per square foot. Find the pool dimensions that will minimize the cost of construction.

Answers

Answer 1

Considering the given conditions in the question, the dimensions that will minimize the cost of construction of the pool are:

base length = 10 feet

base width = 10 feet

pool depth = 20 feet

Volume of a material implies the maximum amount of substance that it can contain.

From the given question, it is expected that the pool would have the shape of a cuboid, thus its volume can be determined by:

volume of the pool = length x width x height

                                = base area x height

Thus, given that the volume of the pool is 2000 cubic feet, then;

2000 = base area x height

i. Let the dimensions of the square base be 10 feet, and its height 20 feet, so that;

volume = 10 x 10 x 20

            = 2000 cubic feet

The cost of constructing the pool of the assumed dimensions would be:

Total area of its sides = 4 x 200

                                    = 800 square feet

The cost of tiling the sides of the pool = $80 x 800

                                         = $ 6400.0

Area of the base of the pool = 10 x 10

                                            = 100 square feet

The cost of tiling the base of the pool = $40 x 100

                                         = $4000

Total cost = $6400 + $4000

                 = $10400

Total cost of constructing the pool with the assumed dimensions is $10400.

ii. Let the dimensions of the square base be 20 feet, and its height 5 feet, so that;

volume = 20 x 20 x 5

            = 2000 cubic feet

The cost of constructing the pool of the assumed dimensions would be:

Total area of its sides = 4 x 100

                                    = 400 square feet

The cost of tiling the sides of the pool = $80 x 400

                                         = $ 32000

Area of the base of the pool = 20 x 20

                                            = 400 square feet

The cost of tiling the base of the pool = $40 x 400

                                         = $16000

Total cost = $16000 + $32000

                 = $48000

Total cost of constructing the pool with the assumed dimensions is $48000.

Therefore, the dimensions that will minimize the cost of construction of the pool are:

base length = 10 feet

base width = 10 feet

pool depth = 20 feet

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(4, 2) = 4. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 4 × 2 = 8. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - nineteen quarters plus five halfs = twenty-nine quarters.

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

By process of elimination, we can say for sure that C and D are not the right answers because as x- the numbers on the top- increases, y- the numbers on the bottom- increases. This means that the slope is not negative, because the slope is the rate of change and it does not have a negative rate of change.

The equation for slope is y2-y1 / x2-x1. Meaning, y is on top and x is on bottom. This creates a fraction. So let's take 0 and 1 for X, the first and second values, and 3 and 8 for y, the first and second values. We swap them, because the second y value comes first, so we have 8 - 3 for the top, the numerator. Then we have 1 - 0 for the bottom, the denominator. Solving 8 - 3 and 1 - 0, we have 5/1. 5/1 simplifies to 5, and thus 5 is your slope.

The length of a planet's orbit around a star is approximately 22,200,000 km. It takes the planet about 1230 Earth days to complete a full orbit. What is the planet's average speed in kmh-1 to 3sf?​

Answers

Answer:

Approximately [tex]12.9\; \rm km \cdot h^{-1}[/tex], assuming that this orbit is circular.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for a tangential velocity with the unit [tex]\rm km \cdot h^{-1}[/tex]. The unit of the given distance is already in [tex]\rm km[/tex] as required. Convert the unit of the orbital period to hours:

[tex]\begin{aligned}T &= 1230\; \text{day} \times \frac{24\; \rm h}{1\; \text{day}}. = 29520\; \rm h\end{aligned}[/tex].

Calculate the angular velocity [tex]\omega[/tex] of this planet from its orbital period:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\omega &= \frac{2\, \pi}{T} \\ &= \frac{2\, \pi}{29520\; \rm h} \approx 2.1285 \times 10^{-4}\; \rm h^{-1}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Given the radius [tex]r[/tex] of the orbit of this planet, the tangential velocity [tex]v_{\perp}[/tex] of this planet would be:

[tex]\begin{aligned}v_{\perp} &= \omega\, r \\ &\approx 2.1285 \times 10^{-4}\; \rm h^{-1} \times 2.22\times 10^{7}\; \rm km \\ &\approx 4.73 \times 10^{3}\; \rm km \cdot h^{-1}\end{aligned}[/tex].

If the orbit of this planet is circular, the velocity of the planet would be equal to its tangential velocity: [tex]4.73\times 10^{3}\; \rm km \cdot h^{-1}[/tex].

2.5

Answers

Answer:

Hello!

After reviewing the question you have provided, I came up with the correct answer:

C) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly:

As the question states, you need to round each number to the nearest whole number and then choose the closest estimate to what the nearest solution could be.

When you round the two numbers you should come up with "3-1= ____".

This is because you round up with a number has .5 or higher, and you round down when any number has .4 or lower.

So 3.2 rounds to 3

And 1.4 rounds to 1.

With the new equation you can then solve "3-1= 2"!

Hope this helps!
