Formula for a circle: A=Pi*r^2
Diameter:2ft
Radius:1ft
A=3.14*1^2
A=3.14
Multiply by 4
4 squares=12.56ft squared
Formula for a square: A=s^2
A=4^2
A= 16ft squared
To find leftover you need to subtract 12.56 ft from 16 ft to get 3.44 ft squared(A).

Answer:

A) 3.44 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the black poster board would be

A = 4(4) = 16 square feet.

There are 4 identical circles in the poster board. The formula for the area of a circle is

A = πr²

Since there are 2 circles across the width of the poster board, this means two diameters are 4 feet. This makes each diameter 2 feet. The radius of a circle is half of the diameter; this makes the radius 1 feet. This gives us

A = π(1²) = 3.14(1²) = 3.14

This is the area of each circle. There are 4 circles in the poster board; this makes

4(3.14) = 12.56

This makes the left over area

16-12.56 = 3.44 square feet

One environmental group did a study of recycling habits in a California community. It found that 75% of the aluminum cans sold i

AysviL [449]

Answer:

a

$P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = 0.12798$

b

$P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) =0.87183$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is $p = 0.75$

Considering question a

The sample size is $n = 387$

Generally the standard deviation of this sampling distribution is

$\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1 - p)}{ n } }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{0.75(1 - 0.75)}{ 387 } }$

=> $\sigma = 0.022$

The sample proportion of cans that are recycled is

$\^ p = \frac{ 300}{387 }$

=> $\^ p = 0.775$

Generally the probability that 300 or more will be recycled is mathematically represented as

$P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = P( \frac{\^ p - p }{ \sigma } > \frac{0.775 - 0.75 }{ 0.022} )$

$\frac{\^ p - p }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value\ of \ \^ p )$

$P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = P( Z > 1.136 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 1.591 is

$P( Z > 1.136) = 0.12798$

=> $P( \^ p > 0.775 ) = 0.12798$

Considering question b

Generally the lower limit of sample proportion of cans that are recycled is

$\^ p_1 = \frac{ 260 }{387 }$

=> $\^ p_1 = 0.6718$

Generally the upper limit of sample proportion of cans that are recycled is

$\^ p_2 = \frac{ 300}{387 }$

=> $\^ p_2 = 0.775$

Generally probability that between 260 and 300 will be recycled is mathematically represented as

$P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = P( \frac{0.6718 - 0.75 }{ 0.022}< \frac{\^ p - p }{ \sigma }$

=> $P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = P( -3.55 < Z < 1.136 )$

=> $P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = P(Z < 1.136 ) - P( Z < -3.55 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 1.136 and -3.55 is

$P( Z < -3.55 ) = 0.00019262$

and

$P(Z < 1.136 ) = 0.87202$

So

$P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) = 0.87202- 0.00019262$

=> $P( 0.6718 < p < 0.775 ) =0.87183$

Ms. Carey grades 4 tests during her lunch. She grades 1/3 of the remainder after school. If she syill5has 16 test to grade after

enot [183]

Answer: 24 tests

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Carey graded 1/3 of the tests and still had 16 tests to go.

This means that the 16 tests represent the remaining proportion of the total number of tests:

= 1 - 1/3

= 2/3

2/3 of the total is equal to 16 tests. Assuming the total is x, the expression would be:

2/3x = 16

x = 16 ÷ 2/3

x = 16 * 3/2

x = 24 tests

seraphim [82]

One person being nervous around strangers is assumed independent of other people behaviour. Then, the multiplication rule can be applied as

both nervous = 0.14*0.14 = 0.0196 = 1.96%

one is nervous, one is not nervous = 0.14*(1-0.14) = 0.1204 = 12.04%

At least one nervous = 1.96% + 12.04% = 14%
