Answer:

width of one box = 1.25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

12 congruent boxes

Length = 25 inches

height = 2 feet

Volume = 9000 cubic inches

First change the height into inches

1 foot = 12 inches

therefore 2 feet = 24 inches

Volume = Length * width * height

9000 = 25 * width * 24

9000 = 600 * width

width = 9000/600

width = 15 inches

width of one box = width of all boxes / number of boxes

width of one box = 15/12

width of one box = 1.25 inches

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

\frac{19}{18,750,000}=0.0000010133333333

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that in a recent​ year, 304 of the approximately​ 300,000,000 people in the United States were struck by lightning.

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Number of possible outcomes}}

\text{P( A randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year)}=\frac{304}{300,000,000}

\text{P( A randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year)}=\frac{19}{18,750,000}

\text{P( A randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year)}=0.0000010133333333

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected person in the United States will be struck by lightning this year is \frac{19}{18,750,000}=0.0000010133333333.
