Archimedes (ca. 287-212 B.C.) was able to use clever geometric means to determine the relative volumes of a cylinder and the con

e and paraboloid that would fit snugly into it (1800 years before Newton and Leibniz). With calculus, you don't have to be a genius to reach the same conclusions.
Determine the ratio of the volume of a (right circular) cone to the volume of a cylinder with the same height and base radius: (First you will need to determine the equation of the line which rotates to generate the cone.)

Answer:

The ratio comparing the volume of a cone to that of a cylinder is \frac{V_{cone}}{V_{cy}} = \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the provided information

The formula for the volume of a cone is described as

V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h

The expression for the volume of a cylinder can be given as

V_{cy} = \pi r^2 h

Thus, the ratio we seek to find is

\frac{V_{cone}}{V_{cy}} = \frac{\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h}{\pi r^2 h}

\frac{V_{cone}}{V_{cy}} = \frac{\frac{1}{3} }{1} This is achievable since both the height and base

\frac{V_{cone}}{V_{cy}} = \frac{1}{3} radius remain identical

At smith mountain lake boat rentals, it costs $25 per hour to rent a pontoon boat, plus a one-time charge for cleaning. The Beng
lawyer [12517]
The equation provided in slope-intercept form is 226.50 = 7.5 (25) + 39. Step-by-step explanation: The slope-intercept form of an equation is represented by y = mx + c. The hourly cost of boat rental is $25. Assuming a one-time cleaning fee of k, and with the boat rented from 11 am to 6:30 pm, the total hours of use amount to 7.5 hours. Consequently, the rental cost for those 7.5 hours becomes 7.5 multiplied by $25, equating to $187.50. The total sum paid by the family amounts to $226.50, which equals the cleaning fee plus the 7.5-hour rate. Thus, the cleaning charge comes to $226.50 - $187.50 = $39. The equation presented reflects this relationship.

Calculating conditional probabilities - random permutations. About The letters (a, b, c, d, e, f, g) are put in a random order.
AnnZ [12381]

A="b is situated in the center"

B="c lies to the right of b"

C="The letters def occur sequentially in that arrangement"

a) b can occupy 7 positions; however, only one of these is the center. Therefore, P(A)=1/7

b) Let X=i; "b holds the i-th position"

Y=j; "c occupies the j-th position"

P(B)=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{6}(P(X=i)\displaystyle\sum_{j=i+1}^{7}P(Y=j))=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{6}\frac{1}{7}(\displaystyle\sum_{j=i+1}^{7}\frac{1}{6})=\frac{1}{42}\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{6}(\displaystyle\sum_{j=i+1}^{7}1)=\frac{6+5+4+3+2+1}{42}=\frac{1}{2}

P(B)=1/2

c) Let X=i; "d holds the i-th position"

Y=j; "e occupies the j-th position"

Let Z=k; "f is in the i-th position"

P(C)=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{5}( P(X=i)P(Y=i+1)P(Z=i+2))=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{5}(\frac{1}{7}\times\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{1}{5})=\frac{1}{210}\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{5}(1)=\frac{1}{42}

P(C)=1/42

P(A∩C)=2*(1/7*1/6*1/5*1/4)=1/420

P(B\cap C)=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{3} P(X=i)P(Y=i+1)P(Z=i+2)\displaystyle\sum_{j=i+3}^{6}P(V=j)P(W=j+1)=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{3}\frac{1}{6}\frac{1}{7}\frac{1}{5}(\displaystyle\sum_{j=1+3}^{6}\frac{1}{4}\frac{1}{3})=1/420

P(B∩A)=3*(1/7*1/6)=1/14

P(A|C)=P(A∩C)/P(C)=(1/420)/(1/42)=1/10

P(B|C)=P(B∩C)/P(C)=(1/420)/(1/42)=1/10

P(A|B)=P(B∩A)/P(B)=(1/14)/(1/2)=1/7

P(A∩B)=1/14

P(A)P(B)=(1/7)*(1/2)=1/14

Events A and B are independent

P(A∩C)=1/420

P(A)P(C)=(1/7)*(1/42)=1/294

Events A and C are not independent

P(B∩C)=1/420

P(B)P(C)=(1/2)*(1/42)=1/84

Events B and C are not independent

A salesperson has to drive 500 miles. For the first three hours she drove at 65 mi/h. For the next two hours she drove at 55 mil
AnnZ [12381]
       Short answer: 195
First, you multiply 65 by 3, yielding 195 miles.
Then, multiplying 55 by 2 gives you 110 miles.

By summing both distances, you arrive at 305.
From 500, if you subtract 305, you find =195.
