If a cake is cut into thirds and each third is cut into fourths, how many pieces of cake are there?

1 answer:

8 0

The question is asking for a fourth of a third.
1/4 of 1/3
"of" = multiplying in math
1/4 x 1/3
= 1/12
That means it is cut in twelfths and it has 12 slices.

Answer= 12 slices

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

12 which is on C

Step-by-step explanation:

use pathogoras theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

16^2+b^2=20^2

256+b^2=400

b^2=400-256

b^2=144

b= square root of 144

b= 12

Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 9090% of all males. (Accommodating 1

Molodets [167]

Answer:

Hip breadths less than or equal to 16.1 in. includes 90% of the males.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 14.5

Standard Deviation, σ = 1.2

We are given that the distribution of hip breadths is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.10.

P(X > x)

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 14.5}{1.2})=0.10$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 14.5}{1.2})=0.10$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 14.5}{1.2})=0.90$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z < 1.282) = 0.90$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 14.5}{1.2} = 1.282\\x = 16.0384 \approx 16.1$

Hence, hip breadth of 16.1 in. separates the smallest 90% from the largest 10%.

That is hip breaths greater than 16.1 in. lies in the larger 10%.
