A company manufactures two products X and Y. Each product has to be processed in three departments: welding, assembly and painti

ng. Each unit of X spends 2 hours in the welding department, 3 hours in assembly and 1 hour in painting. The corresponding times for a unit of Y are 3, 2 and 1 hours respectively. The employee hours available in a month are 1,500 for the welding department, 1,500 in assembly and 550 in painting. The contribution to profits are 100 USD for product X and 120 USD for product Y. What is the objective function (Z) to be maximised in this linear programming problem (where Z is total profit in USD)? (note : means =)

Answer:

100x + 120y = z

z = $63000

Step-by-step explanation:

Product               Welding          Assembly       Painting                Contribution to profit

X                              2x hours            3x hours          1x hour          =        $100x

Y                              3y hours            2y hours          1y hour        =       $120y

                                                                                               

Total hours          1500 hours        1500 hours     550 hours

available

X is defined as product X

Y is defined as product Y

2x + 3y = 1500

x + y = 550

y = 550 - x

2x + 3(550 - x) = 1500

2x + 1650 - 3x = 1500

150 = x

y = 550 - 150

y = 400

Objective Function Z = 100x + 120y

Z = 100(150) + 120(400)

Z = 15000 + 48000

Z = $63000

Integrated circuits from a certain factory pass a particular quality test with probability 0.75. The outcomes of all tests are m
tester [12383]

Answer:

The anticipated number of tests required to identify 680 acceptable circuits is 907.

Step-by-step explanation:

For any circuit, there are two potential results: it either passes the test or it fails. The likelihood of passing is independent between circuits. Therefore, we apply the binomial probability distribution to address this scenario.

Binomial probability distribution

This distribution calculates the chance of obtaining exactly x successes across n trials, where x has only two possible outcomes.

To find the expected number of trials to achieve r successes with a probability p, the formula is given by:

E = \frac{r}{p}

Circuits from a specific factory pass a certain quality evaluation with a probability of 0.75.

Thus, to determine the expected number of tests needed for 680 acceptable circuits, let’s denote this as E where r = 680.p = 0.75

E = \frac{r}{p}

E = \frac{680}{0.75}

E = 907

The expected number of tests necessary to find 680 acceptable circuits is 907.

In the diagram below BD is parallel to XY. What is the value of x
Svet_ta [12734]

The value of x equals 60 degrees.

This is because alternate interior angles are equal by definition :)

A solid oblique cone with a slant length of 17 units is placed inside an empty cylinder with a congruent base of radius 8 units
PIT_PIT [12445]

Step 1

Calculate the volume of a cylinder

We understand that

the volume of a cylinder can be expressed as

V1=\pi r^{2} h

In this scenario

r=8\ units \\ h=15\ units

Insert the values

V1=\pi 8^{2} 15

V1=960\pi\ units^{3}

Step 2

Calculate the volume of a cone

We are aware that

the volume of a cone equals

V2=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h

In this example

r=8\ units \\ l=17\ units \\ h=?

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the height h

h^{2} =l^{2}-r^{2}\\ h^{2} =17^{2}-8^{2}\\ h^{2}=225\\ h=15\ units

V2=\frac{1}{3}\pi 8^{2} 15\\ \\ V2=320\pi \ units^{3}

Step 3

Calculate the empty volume inside the cylinder

V1-V2=960\pi -320\pi =640\pi \ units^{3}

Thus

the final result is

the empty volume inside the cylinder is 640\pi \ units^{3}

Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. What is the value of x ?
tester [12383]

Answer:

Angle x = angle 115°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: We have two parallel lines intersected by a transversal.

To find: The value of x.

Solution: Since two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, corresponding angles, which are a pair lying on the same side of the transversal—one being on the interior and the other on the exterior—are equal.

Thus, angle x = angle 115, being corresponding angles.

Therefore, angle x = angle 115.
