Answer:

15g ointment at 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

We need to prepare 50g of an ointment with 15% of zinc oxide (O15)

with a Lote 1 =50% zinc oxide

50% ⇒ 100g oinment 50g are zinc oxide, so

50g ointment 15% ⇒ 50g oinment*15zo/100g ointment = 7.5g zo, also

g ointment =100g ointment*7.5g zo*/50g zo = 15g ointment

The volume, V, of a rectangular prism is determined using the formula V=lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Width of the rectangular prism

It is given to us that the volume of the rectangular prism is calculated by the given formula :-

v = lwh

Where,

v = volume

l = length

w = width

h = height

Now,

In the question we are given :-

v = 138.24 cubic inches

h =  9.6 inches

l = 3.2 inches

w = ?

Substitute these values in the volume formula given :-

138.24 = 3.2 * w * 9.6

138.24 = 30.72 * w

w = 138.24/30.72

w = 4.5

⇒ The width of the rectangular prism is 4.5 inches.

Crank
Printer A
y = 14x

Printer B
Time(min)       |  3  |  5  |  8  |  12  |
Pages printed | 48 | 80 | 128 | 192 |

Printer A prints 14(1) = 14 pages per minute.
Printer B prints 48/3 = 16 pages per minute.

The printer that prints at a faster rate is printer B.

In a school building, there are 8 exterior doors and 12 stairways to enter the second floor. Find a total number of ways to reac
Kazeer [188]
To reach the second floor you would look at all ways to enter to building(8) and multiply it by the number of ways to reach the second floor (12).

8 x 12 = 96 possibilities

Think of it in groups.

1st door and 12 possible sets of steps
2nd door and 12 possible sets of steps
3rd door and 12 possible sets of steps
4th door and 12 possible sets of steps

An airliner carries 150 passengers and has doors with a height of 78 in. Heights of men are normally distributed with a mean of
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x, height of men is N(69, 2.8)

Sample size n =150

Hence sample std dev = \frac{2.8}{\sqrt{150} } =0.229

Hence Z score = \frac{x-69}{0.229}

A) Prob that a random man from 150  can fit without bending

= P(X<78) = P(Z<3.214)=1.0000

B) n =75

Sample std dev = \frac{2.8}{\sqrt{75} } =0.3233

P(X bar <72) = P(Z<9.28) = 1.00

C) Prob of B is more relevent because average male passengers  would be more relevant than a single person

(D) The probability from part (b) is more relevant because it shows the proportion of flights where the mean height of the male passengers will be less than the door height.

If r=[x,y,z] and r0=[x0,y0,z0], describe the set of all points (x,y,z) such that Ir-r0I =1.
sdas [7]

Answer:

The points (x,y,z) that respond to Ir-r0I =1, are all that describes the form (x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2+(z-z_0)^2=1 with:

-1+x₀<x<1+x₀

-1+y₀<y<1+y₀

-1+z₀<z<1+z₀

Step-by-step explanation:

All points required in this problem came from applying the definition of modulus of a vector:

Ir-r0I =1.

|(x,y,z)-(x_{0},y_{0},z_{0})|=|(x-x_{0},y-y_{0},z-z_{0})|=\sqrt{(x-x_{0})^2+(y-y_{0})^2+(z-z_{0})^2}=1\\(x-x_{0})^2+(y-y_{0})^2+(z-z_{0})^2=1^2=1
