Question
Theresa and Angel are debating whether snow cones or ice cream cones are a greater value. One snow cone can be purchased for the same price as one ice cream cone, but Angel argues that the snow cone is better since it has a greater density than the ice cream cone. Both cones have a radius of 1.5 inches and a height of 33 inches, and the snow cone and ice cream cone weigh 44 ounces and 66 ounces, respectively. Assuming that the cones are filled precisely with no overflow, is Angel correct? Explain, rounding values to the nearest tenth of an ounce per cubic inch.

- Mac is about to sue his contractor who promised to install a water tank that holds 590 gallons of water. Mac knows that 590 gallons is the capacity of a tank that holds 79 cubic feet. The cylindrical tank has a radius of 3 feet and height of 2 feet 8 inches. Does the evidence indicate Mac can win the case against the contractor if it goes to court? Does the evidence indicate Mac can win the case against the contractor if it goes to court? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box within your choice. (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.) No, the water tank is about Yes, the water tank is about No, the water tank is about Yes, the water tank is about cubic feet too small. cubic feet too large. cubic feet too large. cubic feet too small.arrow_forwardAn excavation company has been contracted to supply 10 million cubic feet (cu. ft.) of dirtto a construction site. The company uses a bulldozer to collect dirt, which is then moved by adump truck to the construction site. It costs the company $100 per hour to use the bulldozer,and it rents dump trucks at a rate of $40 per hour per truck. Each dump truck can hold 1,000cu. ft. of dirt, and it takes an average of 12 minutes for the bulldozer to load a dump truckwith dirt. It takes an average of five minutes for a fully loaded dump truck to deliver the dirtto the construction site and returns to the bulldozer for another load.Assume that the time to load a dump truck and the time for a dump truck to deliver the dirtto the construction site and return to the bulldozer follow exponential distributions. Moreover,a usual trip of the truck involves load with dirt, deliver the dirt, return to the bulldozer whereit joins a queue for another load of dirt.Then, determine the most appropriate…arrow_forwardFifty-four wild bears were anesthetized, and then their weights and chest sizes were measured and listed in a data set. Correlation Results Results are shown in the accompanying display. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the weights of bears and their chest sizes? When measuring an anesthetized bear, is it easier to measure chest size than weight? If so, does it appear that a measured chest size can be used to predict the weight? Use a significance level of a =0.05. Correlation coeff, r: 0.966175 Critical r: ±0.2680855 P-value (two tailed): 0.000 Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. H1: p (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Identify the correlation coefficient, r. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Identify the critical value(s). (Round to three decimal places as needed.) A.
