Calculate the correct chargeable weight and the trucking freight costs involved: 5 skids, each skid weighs 390 lbs, and has dimensions of 48 in x 40 in x 36 in. The rate is $10/100 lbs. 1950 lbs = $195 400 lbs = $540 390 lbs = $839 2000 lbs = $5200

The following are sample data provided by a moving company on the weights of six shipments, the distances they are moved, and the damage that that was incurred: Weight (1,000 pounds) Distance (1,000 miles) Damage (dollars) x1 x2 y 4.0 1.5 160 3.0 2.2 112 1.6 1.0 69 1.2 2.0 90 3.4 0.8 123 4.8 1.6 186 a) Fit an equation of the form y = b0 + b1 x1 + b2 x2 b) Use the equation obtained in part (a) to estimate the damage when a shipment weighing 2400 pounds is moved 1200 miles. Hint: Use the given equation to solve for b0, b1, and b2 and then put it back in y = b0 + b1 x1 + b2 x2
Estimate the mass in kilograms and the weight in pounds of a typical sumo wrestler. How do your estimates for the wrestler compare to your estimates of the average mass and weight of the students in your physics class? Do a web search if necessary to help make the estimates. In your solution list what values you assume for the quantities you use in making your estimates.
