Cereal companies often advertise with statements like "collect all 8 dinosaurs" or "one in each specially marked box." Assume th

at the company sells an equal number of boxes with each type of dinosaur. If you wanted to collect all eight dinosaurs, does this mean that you will only have to purchase eight boxes of cereal? This investigation will help you better understand how theoretical probability compares to experimental probability.
Here are your goals: Use a simulation to determine the experimental probability of a problem. Compare and contrast the theoretical probability with the experimental probability.

It is possible to get all 8 in one go. However, it is very unlikely because...

You have a 1/8 chance of getting the dinosaur you want from a box. That means obviously you are significantly more likely to get another less dinosaur. Which it likely won't have lasers and stuff. Which is always sad.

The theoretical probability is far less likely to actually happen than the experimental probability.

Calculate the area, with the appropriate number of significant figures, of a rectangular room that is 14.10 m wide by 15.0 m lon
Paladinen [302]
<h3>Answer: Choice A) 212 square meters</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

14.10 has four sig figs. The 0 at the end is significant. This measurement is accurate to the hundredths place. If the author wrote 14.1, then it would be accurate to the tenths place with three sig figs.

15.0 has three sig figs. The 0 is significant. If they wrote 15 or 15. then we'd be dealing with 2 sig figs instead; however they placed the 0 there to tell the reader "this measurement is accurate to the tenths place"

---------------------

Multiply the values given

14.10*15.0 = 211.5

Round that to three sig figs. We pick the smaller sig fig count to round to since we cannot be certain it is accurate to four sig figs. In a sense, we pick the weakest link and use that to determine rounding when it comes to multiplication and division.

This means 211.5 rounds to 212

In the figure above, what is the area of triangle QRS?
Vlad [161]

Answer:

D) 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the value of x using Pythagoras theorem:

10^2 = x^2 + (2x)^2

5x^2 = 100

x^2 = 20

x = √20

  = 2√5.

So the area of triangle

= 1/2 * base * height

= 1/2 * 2x * x

=  x^2

=  (2√5)^2

=  20.
