In this problem we are asked to determine which of the given questions is a statistics question that anticipates variability.

Now let us see all the given questions one by one.

In the first question we can see that "my brother's favorite car to drive" will remain same. This question doesn't represent a variable.

Likewise in the second question we can see that "my father is either going to like Mazda or Lexus". It does not include variables too.

In the third question we can see that choices of seniors in high school preferring to drive their favorite car includes variability. In this option we can see seniors choices may differ. This option includes at least a group of some seniors which will not depend on single person's choice.

If I wanted to buy a car with the lowest insurance rate also does not includes variability as it only depends on insurance rate not other factors.

Therefore, option (c) is the right choice.

1. Find the area of the following geometric figure.
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

1. Area of the triangle is 96m^2.

2. 2 gallons of paint will you need to cover 224 sq.ft

3.  Volume of the following solid(to the nearest tenth), is 580.1 cm^3.

4. The area cover is 242 sq. ft.

5. The sides of the triangle on the drawing should be 6, 8, and 9 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

<u>Given:</u>

Base of the triangle(b) is 16 m

and altitude of the triangle(h) is 12 m.

To find the Area of the triangle(A), given by;

A=\frac{1}{2}\left (b\cdot h\right)

A=\frac{1}{2}\left (16\cdot 12\right)=8 \cdot 12=96 m^2

Therefore, the Area of the triangle is 96m^2.

2.

Given: You wish to paint a storage shed. Its four walls measure 7 ft. high and 8 ft. wide each.

First find the area(A) of one wall.

A=b\cdot h

where b is the width and h is the height of the wall.

A=8ft\cdot 7ft=56ft^2.

Now, area for four walls is,  4\cdot 56=224 ft^2

Since, one gallon of paint covers 160 sq. ft or we can say that 160 sq. ft cover in one gallon of paint.

for 224 sq ft cover in ,  \frac{224}{160} =1.4 gallon of paint

2 gallons of paint will you need to cover 224 sq.ft.

3.

Given: A rectangular solid has sides of 10.5 cm, 6.5 cm, and 8.5 cm

length (l)=10.5 cm

breadth(b)=6.5 cm

height(h)=8.5 cm

Volume of rectangular solid(V) is given by, V=lbh

v=10.5\cdot 6.5\cdot 8.5=580.125 cm^3

Therefore, the volume of the following solid(to the nearest tenth), is 580.1 cm^3.

4.

Given: You are laying an asphalt driveway. if the driveway is 22 feet long and 11 feet wide.

length(l)=22 ft

Wide(w)= 11 ft

Area cover (A) is given by,  A=lw

A=22\cdot 11=242 ft^2

Therefore, the area cover is 242 sq. ft.

5.

Given:  A triangle with sides 12 feet, 16 feet, and 18 feet on a drawing

Use:  1 inch = 2 feet.

Convert each sides of a triangle into inches.

12 feet

1 inch = 2 feet

12 feet = 6 inch

similarly, others sides 16 feet = 8 inch and 18 feet = 9 inch

Therefore, the sides of the triangle on the drawing should be 6 inch, 8 inch, and 9 inch

It is known that 10% of the 9-year old children in a town have three siblings. Fifteen 9-year old children are selected at rando
inn [45]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0555 = 5.55% probability that more than 3 of these selected children have three siblings.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem, for the parameters, we consider that:

  • 10% of the 9-year old children in a town have three siblings, hence p = 0.1.
  • Fifteen 9-year old children are selected at random, hence n = 15.

The probability that more than 3 of these selected children have three siblings is given by:

P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)

In which:

P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

Then:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{15} = 0.2059

P(X = 1) = C_{15,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{14} = 0.3432

P(X = 2) = C_{15,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{13} = 0.2669

P(X = 3) = C_{15,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{12} = 0.1285

P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.2059 + 0.3432 + 0.2669 + 0.1285 = 0.9445

P(X > 3) = 1 - 0.9445 = 0.0555

0.0555 = 5.55% probability that more than 3 of these selected children have three siblings.

The scale size is 2cm:4m
MaRussiya [10]
I'm not sure which one is the scale size so i'll solve for both...

Ratio is 2cm:4m
0.02m:4m or 2cm:400cm also work as ratios

400cm/2cm=200 (so the scale is 200X smaller than the original)

Option 1::

If the scale of the item is:

l=12cm and w=6cm

then we can solve for the actual size by multiplying the values by 200

l=12cm*200=2400cm or 24m

w=6cm*200=1200cm or 12m

Option 2::

If the original item has a length of 12m and a width of 6m then:

l=12m and w=6m

We can find the scale length by dividing by 200

l=12m/200=.06m or 6cm

w=6m/200=0.03m or 3cm

I need help with C, thank you.
guapka [62]
Simple....

\frac{3}{4} x\ \textless \  \frac{9}{2}

x<6

This means that on your graph at 6 it's a circle (not colored in) and it goes to the left indefinitely...

Thus, your answer.
