Answer:
With 6 yards can made 3 blankets
Step-by-step explanation:
First it is necessary to convert 6 yards into feets. This is calculate using a rule of three in which 1 yard is equivalent to 3 feets, so how many feets are 6 yards. This is:
1 yard ------------------ 3 feet
6 yards ---------------- X
Where X is the number of feets that are equal to 6 yards. Then X is equal to:
Then, using a rule of three, if the sewing club made 8 blankets with 48 feet, then how many blankets could be made with 18 feets. This is:
8 Blankets -------------- 48 feet
Y -------------- 18 feets
Where Y is the number of blankets that could be made with 18 feets. Solving for Y, we get:
So, with 6 yards or 18 feets of fabric the sewing club can made 3 blankets.

a) If f(y) is a probability density function, then both f(y) ≥ 0 for all y in its support, and the integral of f(y) over its entire support should be 1. eˣ > 0 for all real x, so the first condition is met. We have
so both conditions are met and f(y) is indeed a PDF.
