5.I am trying to figure out the optimal radius that will give the lowest surface area of a cylinder. I
...
have done the calculus which reveals that the surface area is at a minimum when height is double the radius. I am now trying to find an equation for the relationship between the amount of wasted surface area as a percentage of the minimum surface area and the ratio between height and radius.
If I were to plot it on a graph, the y axis would be the percentage of excess materials needed as a percentage of the minimum possible surface area, and the x axis would be height divided by radius. Since the surface area is minimized when height=2(radius), I know that when x=2, y=0.
The website https://www.datagenetics.com/blog/august12014/index.html explains what I am trying to do quite well and shows the graph below. I am trying to find the equation for this graph, but am unsure how to go about it.

8.Hello guys, I confess that I absolutely suck at math. Unfortunately my boss handed me what is basically a math
...
lly a math problem I gotta solve, and I have no idea how to do it cause of lack of my math skills. I am hoping someone can help me with this or I'm screwed.
Co basically I've got this table in excel, where X (row) is a width and Y is a height (column) of a wooden sauna cabin, the X;Y is the price for a sauna with said dimensions. I need to find a relationship between the size of the sauna and the price And formulate ani equation. I can't seem to find it, the price seems to grow non linearly, I can't seem to find any coeficient. Again, I suck at math, maybe solution is simple, but I just don't see it. Can anyone help me please?
Table Is at this link https://ibb.co/fGrxSvf . Thanks for any help!

hin a free demo session as I have my answers, but just want to confirm them, that would be greatly appreciated.
Question 1:
A block of mass M = 0.10 kg is attached to one end of a spring with spring constant k = 100 N/m . The other end of the spring is attached to a fixed wall. The block is pushed against the spring, compressing it a distance x = 0.04 m . The block is then released from rest, and the block-spring system travels along a horizontal, rough track. Data collected from a motion detector are used to create a graph of the kinetic energy K and spring potential energy Us of the system as a function of the block's position as the spring expands. How can the student determine the amount of mechanical energy dissipated by friction as the spring expanded to its natural spring length?
Question 2:
The Atwood’s machine shown consists of two blocks connected by a light string that passes over a pulley of negligible mass and negligible friction. The blocks are released from rest, and m2 is greater than m1. Assume that the reference line of zero gravitational potential energy is the floor. Which of the following best represents the total gravitational potential energy U and total kinetic energy K of the block-block-Earth system as a function of the height h of block m1?
Question 3:
A 2 kg block is placed at the top of an incline and released from rest near Earth’s surface and unknown distance H above the ground. The angle θ between the ground and the incline is also unknown. Frictional forces between the block and the incline are considered to be negligible. The block eventually slides to the bottom of the incline after 0.75 s. The block’s velocity v as a function of time t is shown in the graph starting from the instant it is released. How could a student use the graph to determine the total energy of the block-Earth system?
Question 4:
A block slides across a flat, horizontal surface to the right. For each choice, the arrows represent velocity vectors of the block at successive intervals of time. Which of the following diagrams represents the situation in which the block loses kinetic energy?

Malcom X once said the most disrespected person in America is the black woman, the most unprotected person in America is the black woman and that the most neglected person in America is the black woman and I couldn’t agree more. In my research paper I plan to elaborate on this by examining the stories of Black women who have been abused by the systemic racism in our country and by their Black male counterparts. Black women are strong and have been forced to deal with the burdens of racial injustice, sexism, colorism, and nationalism. For that reason, I would like to further expand on these convictions.

15.Hello, I have a problem calculating probability for a certain thing that happened. I'll try and make it sound like
...
it sound like a math problem.
The problem :
What are the chances of a 4 sided die landing on 1 twice and on 2 twice out of 4 rolls. The solution I came up with originally was (2/4) x (2/4) x (2/4) x (2/4) . Which I realized was wrong as this allowed the die to land on 1 four times in a row. So then I came up with this soultion (which i still think is wrong) (2/4) x (2/4) x (1/4) x (1/4) . So the reasoning behind this is : The first roll obviously has a 50% chance to roll on either 1 or 2. Second roll is the same. BUT, lets say both of them land on 1, and now it HAS to land on 2 the remaining two times. So my problem is with the current solution that I have is what if the die lands on 1 on the first roll, then on two for the second one. then the third roll would still have a 2/4 AKA a 50% chance of landing on either one. I'm sure the last roll is 1/4 but I just dont know if the order matters on the rolls. This has been driving me crazy the last hour. Please help if you can thanks

17.Let a = sin b, 0 < b < pi/2.
Find, in terms of b, the solutions of sin 2x =
...
So far I just tried to do the obvious and substitute -a for - sin b. Like so;
sin 2x = - sin b
which then becomes;
sin 2x = sin -b
and then I can remove the sines and rearrange for x, which gives me this.
2x = -b
x = -b/2
However, if I were to look at the domain of b. Any value within the domain will give a value that doesn't fit the domain of x. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you!

22.I'm checking my answers for a practice ACT exam I did, and I am confused by this question on probability...

lity...
"As part of a probability experiment, Elliott is to answer 4 multiple-choice questions. For each question, there are 3 possible answers, only 1 of which is correct. If Elliott randomly and independently answers each question, what is the probability that he will answer the 4 questions correctly?"
Solving the question I keep getting 1/256. My reasoning is that each question has a 1/4 chance of being right if you guessed, so 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/256.
But my answer choices are as follows, with the correct answer being E:
A. 27/81
B. 12/81
C. 4/81
D. 3/81
E. 1/81
Am I missing something? Or am I just completely solving this wrong?

25.So I am looking at polar and Cartesian and converting between the two. My question is, I have never seen
...
seen an equation of a circle this is moved in both the x and y direction be converted to a polar equation.
For example, I know that the equation of a circle x^(2)+(y-2)^(2)=4 is r=4sin(theta) when converted to polar. Same thing for a translation with the x variable. However, I have never seen, nor do I know how to do, a conversion of a circle with both translations. For example, converting this equation of a circle to a polar equation: (x+3)^(2)+(y-4)^(2)=4. I have no idea how to do such a thing and cannot find any examples of such.
Hope you can shed some light on this, Thanks.

I make every rectangle know the 4 neighbouring rectangles in the map so starting from one you can generate an essentially infinite map.
I want to move this map around instead of moving the player around, the player stays centered on screen and since the map moves under him it looks like he's the one doing the moving.
So I know the following things:
Width and height of a single section:
5000X5000 pixels
the x and y location of the center section can be a value anywhere from -5000,-5000 to 5000,5000
The visible screen real estate is 1920 X 1080 pixels big
0X,0Y always stars top left, bottom right is 5000X5000
What I need to end up with:
A percentage value of howmuch this specific section is visible on screen, "inside the rectangle that is the scfeen)

Then state assumptions on flow and pressure field that reduce the Navier- Stokes equation locally to a form, from which the following approximate expression for the x-velocity in the slot for x ∈ [0; L] can be derived:

62.Let's say that I have a data set of every time a certain person has coughed since the beginning of
...
his year. I'm looking for a formula that will tell me the probability that a person will cough x number of times in a given week.
I started with the Poisson Distribution, but Poisson doesn't seem to take into account standard deviation. To calculate the probability with Poisson, only the mean, expected value, and test value are needed, meaning the variance/standard deviation of the data could vary widely, and you'd still get the same probability distribution. For example, if someone coughed exactly 5 times everyday, you'd get the same probability distribution if this person alternated coughing 0 times one day, 10 times the next, 0 times the next day, 10 times the next, and so on.
Does my question make sense? Thanks for your help.
