Jamie just bought two boxes.The first box is square with each side measuring 10 units and is 4 units high.The second box is rect

angular and has twice the volume of the square box.If the height of the second box is 5 units and width is 10 units what is the length of the second box

Step 1
find the volume of the square box
volume=area of the base*height
area of the base=10²-----> 100 units²
height=4 units
volume square box=100*4----> 400 units³

step 2
volume rectangular box=2*volume square box
volume rectangular box=2*400------> 800 units³

volume rectangular box=L*W*H
H=5 units
W=10 units
Volume=800 units³
800=L*10*5------> solve for L
L=800/(10*5)------> L=16 units

the answer is
the length of the rectangular box is 16 units

2 A pharmacist has a 13 % alcohol solution and another 18 % alcohol solution. How much of each must he use to make 50 grams of a
nalin [4]
<h2>Therefore he took 40 gram of 1^{st} type solution and 10 gram of 2^{nd} type solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that , A pharmacist 13% alcohol solution another 18% alcohol solution .

Let he took x gram solution of 1^{st} type solution

and he took (50-x) gram of 2^{nd} type solution.

Total  amount of alcohol =[x\times\frac{13}{100}] +[(50 -x) \times\frac{18}{100} ] gram

Total amount of solution = 50 gram

According to problem

⇔\frac{ [x\times\frac{13}{100}] +[(50 -x) \times\frac{18}{100} ]}{50}= \frac{14}{100}

⇔\frac{13x +900-18x}{100\times50} =\frac{14}{100}

⇔- 5x= 700 - 900

⇔5x = 200

⇔x = 40 gram

Therefore he took 40 gram of 1^{st} type solution and (50 -40)gram = 10 gram of 2^{nd} type solution.

A quality control engineer tests the quality of produced computers. suppose that 5% of computers have defects, and defects occur
11111nata11111 [884]
(a) 0.059582148 probability of exactly 3 defective out of 20

 (b) 0.98598125 probability that at least 5 need to be tested to find 2 defective.

  (a) For exactly 3 defective computers, we need to find the calculate the probability of 3 defective computers with 17 good computers, and then multiply by the number of ways we could arrange those computers. So

 0.05^3 * (1 - 0.05)^(20-3) * 20! / (3!(20-3)!)

 = 0.05^3 * 0.95^17 * 20! / (3!17!)

 = 0.05^3 * 0.95^17 * 20*19*18*17! / (3!17!)

 = 0.05^3 * 0.95^17 * 20*19*18 / (1*2*3)

 = 0.05^3 * 0.95^17 * 20*19*(2*3*3) / (2*3)

 = 0.05^3 * 0.95^17 * 20*19*3

 = 0.000125* 0.418120335 * 1140

 = 0.059582148

  (b) For this problem, let's recast the problem into "What's the probability of having only 0 or 1 defective computers out of 4?" After all, if at most 1 defective computers have been found, then a fifth computer would need to be tested in order to attempt to find another defective computer. So the probability of getting 0 defective computers out of 4 is (1-0.05)^4 = 0.95^4 = 0.81450625.

 The probability of getting exactly 1 defective computer out of 4 is 0.05*(1-0.05)^3*4!/(1!(4-1)!)

 = 0.05*0.95^3*24/(1!3!)

 = 0.05*0.857375*24/6

 = 0.171475

 
 So the probability of getting only 0 or 1 defective computers out of the 1st 4 is 0.81450625 + 0.171475 = 0.98598125 which is also the probability that at least 5 computers need to be tested.

The gas mileage for a certain vehicle can be approximated by m=−0.05x2+3.5x−49, where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. Dete
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

<h2>14mph</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the gas mileage for a certain vehicle modeled by the equation m=−0.05x²+3.5x−49 where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. In order to determine the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg, we will substitute the value of m = 9 into the modeled equation and calculate x as shown;

m = −0.05x²+3.5x−49

when m= 9

9 = −0.05x²+3.5x−49

−0.05x²+3.5x−49 = 9

0.05x²-3.5x+49 = -9

Multiplying through by 100

5x²+350x−4900 = 900

Dividing through by 5;

x²+70x−980 = 180

x²+70x−980 - 180 = 0

x²+70x−1160 = 0

Using the general formula to get x;

a = 1, b = 70, c = -1160

x = -70±√70²-4(1)(-1160)/2

x = -70±√4900+4640)/2

x = -70±(√4900+4640)/2

x = -70±√9540/2

x =  -70±97.7/2

x = -70+97.7/2

x = 27.7/2

x = 13.85mph

x ≈ 14 mph

Hence, the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg to the nearest mph is 14mph
