An automotive manufacturer believes that the variance of the gas milage for its hybrid vehicles is 6. You work for an energy conservation agency and want to test this claim . You find that a random sample of the miles per gallon of 28 of the manufacturer’s hybrid vehicles has a variance of 4.25. At α = 0.05 do you have enough evidence to reject the manufacturer’s claim?

In 1803, the U.S. doubled in size with the Louisiana Purchase. That well-known real estate mogul Napoleon Bonaparte sold us 827,000 square miles (529,280,000 acres–there are 640 acres in a square mile). We paid $15 million. Assume that part of the US is worth an average of $6,500 per acre in 2019. What is the annual rate of return of this purchase for the U.S.?

As technology increases, the fuel efficiency of cars and trucks also increases. However, even though modern automobiles pollute less than older models, the overall rate of pollution due to cars and trucks has increased. How can this apparent contradiction occur? Think about things such as the number of miles driven, and the average number of drivers and cars on the road.

Costing Models

You work for XYZ trucking and your boss has asked you to figure out how much the firm should charge a new customer to make a full Truckload delivery and make a 15% profit. The firm knows that it will find a backhaul customer, so you only need to worry about the cost for the move.

The shipment consist of 400 boxes weighing 100 pounds each, and measuring 4 cubic feet each. The trailers that your company uses can carry 46,000 pounds and have a volume of 3,600 cubic feet.

You calculate that it will take 4 hours to drive from your terminal to the customer’s factory, wait for the truck to be loaded and return to your terminal. The distance between your terminal and your customer’s factory is 35 miles.

Your line haul driver will then take the truck to the consignee and deliver the boxes. The total distance from your terminal to the consignee is 900 miles and will take the driver 30 hours. Once at the consignees it will take 4.5 hours to offload the truck. Then the driver will go to the XYZ trucking terminal in the same city, which is 45 miles away.

What would you recommend to your boss that the price should be set per cwt to complete this move?

KEEP IT SIMPLE EVEN IF IT IS REDUNDANT PLEASE.

Problem: Driving

Function driving():

Write a function driving(), that updates the odometer and fuel gauge of a car. The function will take in a reference to the variables storing the odometer and fuel gauge readings, along with a double representing the miles per gallon (mpg) the car gets and the number of miles the driver intends to go. The function should update the odometer and fuel gauge readings, accordingly. If the number of miles is greater than the user can go with the fuel he has left, then simply have the car drive until empty and update the odometer accordingly. The prototype for the function is below:

 
 

void driving(double* odomPtr, double* fuelPtr, double mpg, double distance);

Note that, you are not allowed to change the prototype of the function.

The return type of the function has to be void.

Also, there should not be any printf() in the the driving function.

main function:

In the main function, at first take the odometer reading, fuel gauge reading, and miles per gallon (mpg) as input.

Then keep taking distance to drive as input until the fuel gauge indicates 0 fuel. After taking the distance to drive, call the driving function with the proper parameters to get update about odometer and fuel and display the update. Display them up to two decimal places.

At the end display the message "No more fuel!"

 
 

Sample Input/Output 1:

 

Enter odometer reading, fuel gauge reading and mpg: 8000 13.5 25

 

Enter the distance you want to drive: 200

 

Current reading Odometer = 8200.00, fuel = 5.50

 

Enter the distance you want to drive: 100

 

Current reading Odometer = 8300.00, fuel = 1.50

 

Enter the distance you want to drive: 500

 

Current reading Odometer = 8337.50, fuel = 0.00

 
 

No more fuel!

 
 

Sample Input/output 2:

 

Enter odometer reading, fuel gauge reading and mpg: 90000 2.5 13.5

 

Enter the distance you want to drive: 500

 

Current reading Odometer = 90033.75, fuel = 0.00

 
 

No more fuel!

Find the system of equations to model the problem. Don't solve the system.

A paper company produces high grade, medium grade and low grade paper. The number of tons of each grade produced from a ton of pulp depends on the source of the pulp. The following table shows three different sources and the amount of each grade of paper that can be produced from one tonne of pulp from each source.

(Number of tons)

High grade Medium grade Low grade
Pulp from Brazil 0.6 0.3 0.1
Domestic pulp 0.5 0.3 0.2
Recycled pulp 0.3 0.4 0.3

The company has received an order for 11 tons of high grade paper, 15 tons of medium grade paper, and 14 tons of low grade paper. How many tons of each type of pulp must be used to accurately fulfill this order? Establish a system of linear equations. Let x, y, and z equal the number of tons of Brazilian pulp, domestic pulp, and recycled pulp, respectively, needed to fulfill the order.
