We are to find the probability of 16 or more books being sold on a given day. So all the categories listing the sale of more than 16 books will be counted for this problem.

From the given table we can see that there are 2 such categories:

1) 16 - 20
2) 21 - 25

To find the probability of 16 or more books sold , we need to add the probability of both these categories. Probability of selling 16 - 20 books is 0.201 and probability of selling 21 - 25 books is unknown. The given distribution is a probability distribution. So sum of probabilities of all categories must be equal to 1. So, the probability of selling 21-25 books is 0.019 only then the probabilities sum up to 1.

Thus, 
The probability that 16 or more books are sold on a give day = 0.201 + 0.019 = 0.220

Explain how you can find the volume of the figure below. Then, solve- what is the volume of the figure? Make sure to include you
mote1985 [20]

Answer: a) The figure can be reasonably divided into two geometries:

• a rectangular prism

• a hemisphere.

b) The volume of the rectangular prism is given by

  V = lwh

  V = (10 cm)(5 cm)(4 cm) = 200 cm³

The volume of the hemisphere is given by

  V = (2π/3)r³

  V = (2π/3)(3 cm)³ = 18π cm³

c) The total volume of the figure is

  total volume = (prism volume) + (hemisphere volume)

  V = 200 cm³ + 18π cm³

  V ≈ 256.549 cm³

I need help with this <br><br> look at picture <br><br> Complementary angles
BlackZzzverrR [31]
<h3>Answer:  x = 5</h3>

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

Explanation:

The square marker indicates a 90 degree, or right angle.

The two smaller angles (3x and 75) both combine to the larger 90 degree angle. That's what it means when they say we have complementary angles.

Add up the smaller angles, set the sum equal to 90, and solve for x.

3x+75 = 90

3x+75-75 = 90-75 ....... subtracting 75 from both sides

3x = 15

3x/3 = 15/3 ..... divide both sides by 3

x = 5

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

If x = 5, then 3x = 3*5 = 15

Then we can see that 15+75 = 90 to help check our answer.
