A cereal manufacturer decides to offer a new family-sized box based on the regular-sized box. They want the volume of the family

-sized box to be three times the volume of the regular-sized box. However, they want the length of the family-sized box to be the same as the regular-sized box. If they decide to double the width to create the family-sized box, by what factor must they increase the height?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A cereal manufacturer decides to offer a new family-sized box based on the regular-sized box. They want the volume of the family-sized box to be three times the volume of the regular-sized box. However, they want the length of the family-sized box to be the same as the regular-sized box.

If original dimensions are l,w and h then volume = lwh

Volume of new box is= 3lwh

But here w becomes 2w and l remains the same.  Let h' be the new height

Then we have

l(2w)h' = 3lwh\\h' =1.5 h

So by 1.5 factor height should be dilated.

Find the quotient of 2,300 and (0.4 · 10^-8). In your final answer, include all of your calculations.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

5.75x10^11

Step-by-step explanation:

quotient of 2,300 and (0.4x10^-8) is

2,300 ÷ (0.4x10^-8)

2300 = 2.3x10^3

We now have

2.3x10^3 / 0.4x10^-8

= (2.3/0.4) x ( 10^(3 - (-8))

= 5.75 x (10^(3+8))

= 5.75 x (10^11)

= 5.75x10^11

Find the surface area of the regular pyramid shown in the accompanying diagram. If necessary, express your answer in simplest ra
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The area of the pyramid is 360 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base Edge, a = 10

Height, h = 12

Required

Determine the surface area

The surface area of a regular pyramid is calculated as thus;

A = a^2 + 2a\sqrt{\frac{a^2}{4} + h^2}

Substitute values for a and h

A = 10^2 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{\frac{10^2}{4} + 12^2}

Evaluate all squares

A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{\frac{100}{4} + 144}

A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{25 + 144}

A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{169}

Take positive square root of 169

A = 100 + 2 * 10 * 13

A = 100 + 260

A = 360

<em>Hence, the area of the pyramid is 360 unit²</em>

An automotive manufacturer wants to know the proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over domestic. In an earlier s
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

1,496 new car buyers

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size n in Simple Random Sampling is given by

\bf n=\frac{z^2p(1-p)}{e^2}

where  

z = 1.645 is the critical value for a 90% confidence level (*)

p= 0.33 is the population proportion.

e = 0.02 is the margin of error

so  

\bf n=\frac{(1.645)^20.33*0.67}{0.02^2}=1,495.76\approx 1,496

<em>(*)</em><em>This is a point z such that the area under the Normal curve N(0,1) inside the interval [-z, z] equals 90% = 0.9</em>

It can be obtained in Excel or OpenOffice Calc with

<em>NORMSINV(0.95)</em>
