cubed root of 4896 = 16.98

round to 17

17-1 = 16

17 +1 = 18

16* 17 *18 = 4896

bin is 16 in x 17 in x 18 in

Answer:

The dimension of the rectangle is $16\times 17\times 18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The dimensions of a rectangular bin are consecutive integers. If the volume of the bin is 4896 cubic inches.

To find : What are the dimensions of the bin?

Solution :

The dimensions of a rectangular bin are consecutive integers.

Let the consecutive integers are x,x+1,x+2

So let, length, l=x

Breadth b=x+1

Height h=x+2

The volume of the bin is

$V=l\times b\times h$

$4896=x\times (x+1)\times (x+2)$

$4896=(x^2+x)(x+2)$

$4896=x^3+2x^2+x^2+2x$

$x^3+3x^2+2x-4896=0$

Plot the equation graphically to find the value of x.

Refer the attached figure below.

The value of x is 16.

So, Length is l=16

Breadth is b=x+1=16+1=17

Height is h=x+2=16+2=18

The dimension of the rectangle is $16\times 17\times 18$

A specimen of aluminum having a rectangular cross section 10 mm 12.7 mm (0.4 in. 0.5 in.) is pulled in tension with 35,500 N (80

miskamm [114]

Answer:

$\epsilon = 3.958\times 10^{-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Young's Module of Aluminium is $E = 69\times 10^{9}\,Pa$ . The axial stress on the specimen is:

$\sigma = \frac{F}{A_{t}}$

$\sigma = \frac{35500\,N}{(0.01\,m)\cdot (0.013\,m)}$

$\sigma = 2.731\times 10^{8}\,Pa$

The strain is derived of following expression:

$\epsilon = \frac{\sigma}{E}$

$\epsilon = \frac{2.731\times 10^{8}\,Pa}{69\times 10^{9}\,Pa}$

$\epsilon = 3.958\times 10^{-3}$

Find the standard deviation of the following data. Answers are rounded to the nearest tenth. 5, 5, 6, 12, 13, 26, 37, 49, 51, 56

kogti [31]

Answer:

24.2(to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is ungrouped data type

standard deviation =√ [∑ (x-μ)² / n]

mean (μ)=∑x/n

= $\frac{5+5+6+12+13+26+37+49+51+56+56+84}{12}$

=33.3

x-μ for data 5, 5, 6, 12, 13, 26, 37, 49, 51, 56, 56, 84 will be

-28.3, -28.3, -27.3, -21.3, -7.3, 3.7, 15.7,17.7, 22.7,22.7,50.7

(x-μ)² will be 800.89, 800.89,745.29,453.69,53.29,13.69,246.49,313.29,515.29,515.29,2570.49

∑ (x-μ)² will be = 7028.59

standard deviation = √(7028.59 / 12)

=24.2

The aquarium at Sea Critters Depot contains 140 fish. Eighty of these fish are green swordtails (44 female and 36 male) and 60 a

maxonik [38]

Given that:

Total number of fish = 140

Fish are green swordtails female = 44

Fish are green swordtails male = 36

Fish are orange swordtails female = 36

Fish are orange swordtails male = 24

Solution:

A. We have to find the probability that the selected fish is a green swordtail.

$\text{P(green swordtail)}=\dfrac{\text{Total green swordtail fish}}{\text{Total fish}}$

$\text{P(green swordtail)}=\dfrac{80}{140}$

$\text{P(green swordtail)}=\dfrac{4}{7}$

Therefore, the probability that the selected fish is a green swordtail is $\dfrac{4}{7}.$

B. We have to find the probability that the selected fish is male.

$\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{\text{Total male fish}}{\text{Total fish}}$

$\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{36+24}{140}$

$\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{60}{140}$

$\text{P(Male fish)}=\dfrac{3}{7}$

Therefore, the probability that the selected fish is a male, is $\dfrac{3}{7}.$

C. We have to find the probability that the selected fish is a male green swordtail.

$\text{P(Male green swordtail)}=\dfrac{\text{Total male green swordtail fish}}{\text{Total fish}}$

$\text{P(Male green swordtail)}=\dfrac{36}{140}$

$\text{P(Male green swordtail)}=\dfrac{9}{35}$

Therefore, probability that the selected fish is a male green swordtail is $\dfrac{9}{35}.$

D.

We have to find the probability that the selected fish is either a male or a green swordtail.

$\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{\text{Total male or green swordtail fish}}{\text{Total fish}}$

$\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{44+36+24}{140}$

$\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{96}{140}$

$\text{P(Male or green swordtail)}=\dfrac{24}{35}$

Therefore, the probability the selected fish is either a male or a green swordtail is $\dfrac{24}{35}.$
