We know that

• The radius is 17 feet.

First, we find the circular area

\begin{gathered} A=\pi(r)^2 \\ A=3.14(14)^2\approx3.14\cdot196\approx615.44ft^2 \end{gathered}

This means the square flower bed will have an area of 615.44 square feet. So, we find its sides with the formula for squared areas

\begin{gathered} A=l^2 \\ 615.44=l^2 \\ l=\sqrt{615.44}\approx24.808 \end{gathered}<h2>Therefore, the bed should have sides of 24.808 feet, approximately.</h2>

Aaron participates in a walkathon for charity. He has a sponsor who has pledged a base donation of $2 for the first mile he walk
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Aaron participates in a walkathon for charity. He has a sponsor who has pledged a base donation of $2 for the first mile he walks and then a certain dollar amount for each additional mile he walks. Based on this pledge, if Aaron walks 8 miles, the sponsor will donate a total of $23 to the charity.

Write a formula that can be used to determine the amount of money this sponsor donates when Aaron walks n miles.

total amount sponsor pays = base donations + (additional miles walked after first mile x amount paid)

when Aaron walks 8 miles

additional miles = 8 - 1 = 7

23 = 2 + 7x

23 - 2 = 7x

x = 3

additional amount paid is $3

total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)

hram777 [196]

Answer:

a.\mu=15

b.\mu=7.8586 \ and  \ \mu=22.1414

c. Choice A- Based on limits above, it is unlikely that we would see x = 45, so it might be possible that the trials are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.Binomial distribution is defined by the expression

P(X=k)=C_k^n.p^k.(1-p)^{n-k}

Let n be the number of trials,n=100

and p be the probability of success,p=15\%

The mean of a binomial distribution is the probability x sample size.

\mu=np=100\times0.15=15

b.Limits within which p is approximately 95%

sd of a binomial distribution is given as:\sigma=\sqrt npq\\q=1-p

Therefore, \sigma=\sqrt(100\times0.015\times0.85)=3.5707

Use the empirical rule to find the limits. From the rule, approximately 95% of the observations are within to standard deviations from mean.

sd_1=>\mu-2\sigma=15-2\times3.3507=7.8586\\sd_2=>\mu-2\sigma=15+2\times3.3507=22.1414

Hence, approximately 95% of the observations are within 7.8586 and 22.1414 (areas of infestation).

c.  x=45 is not within the limits in b above (7.8586,22.1414). X=45 appears to be a large area of infestation. A.Based on limits above, it is unlikely that we would see x = 45, so it might be possible that the trials are not independent.
