1st piece is the longest

 2nd piece is 24 7/16 + 12 5/ 16 = 36 3/4 inches long

3rd piece is 24 7/16 inches

 2nd piece is 7/8 as long as first piece so divide the length of the 2nd piece by 7/8

3 3/4 / 7/8 = 42 inches

A) 1st piece is 42" long

 B) now add them all: 42 + 36 3/4 + 24 7/16 = 103 3/16 inches total

C) 103 3/16 inches / 12 = 8.6 feet

8.6 x 4 = 34.4 feet, he has 32 feet so he does not have enough to cut 4 more of each size.

According to an​ airline, flights on a certain route are on time 80 ​% of the time. suppose 10 flights are randomly selected and
natulia [17]
<span>(a) This is a binomial experiment since there are only two possible results for each data point: a flight is either on time (p = 80% = 0.8) or late (q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2).
​(b) Using the formula:</span><span>
P(r out of n) = (nCr)(p^r)(q^(n-r)), where n = 10 flights, r = the number of flights that arrive on time:
P(7/10) = (10C7)(0.8)^7 (0.2)^(10 - 7) = 0.2013
Therefore, there is a 0.2013 chance that exactly 7 of 10 flights will arrive on time.
​(c) Fewer than 7 flights are on time means that we must add up the probabilities for P(0/10) up to P(6/10).
Following the same formula (this can be done using a summation on a calculator, or using Excel, to make things faster):
P(0/10) + P(1/10) + ... + P(6/10) = 0.1209
This means that there is a 0.1209 chance that less than 7 flights will be on time.
​(d) The probability that at least 7 flights are on time is the exact opposite of part (c), where less than 7 flights are on time. So instead of calculating each formula from scratch, we can simply subtract the answer in part (c) from 1.
1 - 0.1209 = 0.8791.
So there is a 0.8791 chance that at least 7 flights arrive on time.
(e) For this, we must add up P(5/10) + P(6/10) + P(7/10), which gives us
0.0264 + 0.0881 + 0.2013 = 0.3158, so the probability that between 5 to 7 flights arrive on time is 0.3158.
