Missing part of the question:
Find the missing table in the attached file. The table was used for the calculation. The below question (b) is also the missing part of the question.
(b) A tube constructed of which of the alloys will cost the least amount?
Answer:
The thickness for each of the metal alloys are given below.
(a)
Steel (plain) thickness = 6.25 mm
Steel (alloy) thickness = 2.28 mm
Cast iron thickness = 10.14 mm
Aluminum thickness = 8.30 mm
Magnesium thickness = 13.04 mm
(b) the alloys will cost the least amount is steel (alloy) which $33.8
Explanation:
Cost of each metal alloy
Steel (plain) = $34.43
Steel (alloy) = $33.80
Cast iron = $79.24
Aluminum = $73.22
Magnesium = $159
