Student ID a= 8. B=9

Question 5 Remark: (2 and ,6 are the last 2 digits of your SEGi student ID. Example 1: SUKD123564789, then a: 8, ,5 = 9. Thus 25 . a: = 29.8. Example 2: SUKD123564709, then a = 0, )3 = 9. Thus 2 ,6 . a = 29.0. Example 3: SCM012546653, then a = 5, = 3. Thus 2;? . a = 23.5. INSTRUCTION: Write down the values of a , and 2,811 before solving the following questions. A study has been carried out on how does the shear resistance, y is affected by the normal stress, 11: of the metal tube. Table Q5 shows the coded observations.
