Universal pet house sells vinyl doghouses and treated lumber doghouses. it takes the company 5
hours to build a vinyl doghouse and 2 hours to build a treated lumber doghouse. the company
dedicates 50 hours every week towards building doghouses. it takes an additional hour to paint each
vinyl doghouse and an additional 2 hours to assemble each treated lumber doghouse. the company
dedicates 30 hours every week towards assembling and painting doghouses.
write a system of equations that represent the production time needed to build each doghouse and
the production time needed for painting and assembling each doghouse. use x to represent the
number of vinyl doghouses and y to represent the number of treated lumber doghouses.

Atoy company is considering a cube or sphere-shaped container for packaging a new product. the height of the cube would equal the diameter of the sphere . compare the volume to surface area ratios of the containers. which packaging will be more efficient? for a sphere, sa =4πr²

Airplane speeds are measured in three different ways: (1) indicated speed, (2) true speed, and (3) ground speed. the indicated airspeed is the airspeed given by an instrument called an airspeed indicator. a plane’s indicated airspeed is different from its true airspeed because the indicator is affected by temperature changes and different altitudes of air pressure. the true airspeed is the speed of the airplane relative to the wind. ground speed is the speed of the airplane relative to the ground. for example, a plane flying at a true airspeed of 150 knots into a headwind of 25 knots will have a ground speed of 125 knots. the problems below refer to static and dynamic pressure. static pressure is used when a body is in motion or at rest at a constant speed and direction. dynamic pressure is used when a body in motion changes speed or direction or both. a gauge compares these pressures, giving pilots an indicated airspeed. in problem #s 1 and 2, use the following information. the indicated airspeed s (in knots) of an airplane is given by an airspeed indicator that measures the difference p (in inches of mercury) between the static and dynamic pressures. the relationship between s and p can be modeled by s=136.4p√+4.5. 1. find the differential pressure when the indicated airspeed is 157 knots. 2. find the change in the differential pressure of an airplane that was traveling at 218 knots and slowed down to195 knots. in problem #s 3 and 4, use the following information. the true airspeed t (in knots) of an airplane can be modeled by t=(1+a50,000) ⋅ s, where a is the altitude (in feet) and s is the indicated airspeed (in knots). 3. write the equation for true airspeed t in terms of altitude and differential pressure p. 4. a plane is flying with a true airspeed of 280 knots at an altitude of 20,000 feet. estimate the differential pressure. explain why you think your estimate is correct.

Ok a point t on a segment with endpoints d(1, 4) and f(7, 1) partitions the segment in a 2: 1 ratio. find t. you must show all work to receive credit.
