A preliminary design is needed for a cardboard container to hold six 12-ounce cans of soft drink for the Wola Cola Bottling Company. They have sent you a sample of the can and the following specifications for the container. (See illustration!) 1. The package is to completely cover the 6 cans. They are to be arranged in 2 rows of 3 cans each. The 2 cans at each end will be exposed, as shown in the illustration. 2. The package will be glued together with a lengthwise overlap of 1/2 the outside diameter (OD) of a soft drink can. FIND: The size of the cardboard (length and width) needed to make the package. Understand the problem 1. What are you trying to find? I am trying to find___________________________________________ 2. What data do you now have to solve the problem? a. What data does the illustration give you? ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ b. Using information from the illustration, what would a formula to find the length of the cardboard look like? ___________________________________________________ c. What would a formula to find the width look like? ___________________________________________________ Develop a plan 1. What additional information do you need to solve this problem? ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ 2. Is equipment available that you can use to find the needed information? a. What equipment will you use to find the height of the can? ___________________________________________________ b. What equipment will you use to find the width of the can? ___________________________________________________ 3. Does finding any of this information involve solving other problems? Yes or No?_________________ 4. Are there graphical methods you can use? Explain. Yes or no?_________________Explanation:_____________________ ________________________________________________________ 5. What computational methods can nyou use? a. Show how you will solve for the length of the cardboard: __________________________________________________ b. Show how you will solve for the width of the cardboard: __________________________________________________ Carry out the plan 1. Solve the problem showing all of your work. a. Use your measurements of the can and your formula for length to solve for length of the cardboard. length = ____________________________________________ b. Use your measurements of the can and your formula for width to solve for width of the cardboard. width = _____________________________________________ 2. Can you make a rough estimate for any parts of your solution? Explain. Yes or no?___________________Explanation:___________________ ________________________________________________________ Check the results! DSET|(H->"9 *6*>"9DSET|(H-9>96*=9
