Answer:

D. The store will need exactly 38 boxes for the shipment, with 1/3 pound of clay going into the last box

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to divide the number of pounds by the numbers of pounds per box

28 ÷ 3/4

Copy dot flip

28 * 4/3

112/3

37 1/3

We will have to round up to pack all the clay

38 boxes with 1/3 in the 38th box

Here are the vertices of rectangle FROG: (-2,5),(-2,1),(6,5),(6,1). Find the perimeter of this rectangle. If you get stuck, try

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Part 1) The perimeter of rectangle is equal to 24 units

Part 2) The area of rectangle is equal to 32 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the perimeter of rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$

where

L is the length of rectangle

W is the width of rectangle

we have

$F(-2,5),R(-2,1),O(6,1),G(6,5)$

Plot the figure to better understand the problem

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

Remember that in a rectangle opposite sides are congruent and the measure of each interior angle is equal to 90 degrees

$FG=RO=L\\RF=OG=W$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance FG

$F(-2,5),G(6,5)$

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(5-5)^{2}+(6+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(8)^{2}}$

$FG=8\ units$

step 2

Find the distance RF

$R(-2,1),F(-2,5)$

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(-2+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$RF=4\ units$

step 3

Find the perimeter

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$FG=RO=L=8\ units\\RF=OG=W=4\ units$

substitute

$P=2(8+4)=24\ units$

Part 2) Find the area of rectangle FROG

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$FG=RO=L=8\ units\\RF=OG=W=4\ units$

substitute

$A=(8)(4)=32\ units^2$

An investigator wants to assess whether the mean m = the weight of passengers flying on small planes exceeds the FAA guideline o

stira [4]

Answer:

$H_{0}: \mu= 185$ and $H_{a}: \mu > 185$

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis $H_{0}$ states that a population parameter (such as the mean, the standard deviation, and so on) is equal to a hypothesized value. We can write the null hypothesis in the form $H_{0}: parameter = value$

In this context, the investigator's null hypothesis should be that the average total weight is no different than the reported value by the FAA. We can write it in this form $H_{0}: \mu= 185$ .

The alternative hypothesis $H_{a}$ states that a population parameter is smaller, greater, or different than the hypothesized value in the null hypothesis. We can write the alternative hypothesis in one of three forms

$H_{a}: parameter > value\\H_{a}: parameter < value\\H_{a}: parameter \neq value$

The investigator wants to know if the average weight of passengers flying on small planes exceeds the FAA guideline of the average total weight of 185 pounds. He should use $H_{a}: \mu > 185$ as his alternative hypothesis.

How many times can 5 go into 312

vivado [14]

62 times because 62X5 is 310 so it would leave you with 2 left over which will lead you to a fraction, remainders, or decimals
