Practice questions

1 of 42Practice questions for this set
Three hot pack designs (A, B, C) are tested. Criteria (must meet all):
  1. Temperature range: 4040–50∘C50^\circ\text{C}
  2. Duration: Stay in that range for at least 2 hours
  3. Cost: \le \5.00$
Test procedure: Activate each pack, record temperature every 30 minutes, and calculate time in range. Total material cost is recorded from receipts. Results summary:
  • Design A: Max temp 44°C; time in 40–50°C range = 1.5 hours; cost $4.50
  • Design B: Max temp 52°C; time in 40–50°C range = 2.5 hours; cost $4.00
  • Design C: Max temp 46°C; time in 40–50°C range = 2.25 hours; cost $5.25
