Answer: 0.8770

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of eligible voters aged​ 18-24 are randomly selected : n=141

The population proportion of eligible voters aged​ 18-24 : p=0.22

Then, mean : np=141(0.22)=31.02

Standard deviation: \sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{141(0.22)(1-0.22)}\approx4.92

We assume that this is normal distribution.

Let X be a binomial variable.

For x =36

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\ z=\dfrac{36-31.02}{4.29}\approx1.16

The probability that fewer than 36 voted will be :-

P(x

Answer:

x = 1.56  or x = -2.56

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation;

x2 +x − 4 = 0

a = 1 , b = 1, and c = -4

x = (-b ± √(b² -4ac))/2a

  = (-1 ± √(1²- 4×1×-4))/2

  = ( -1 ± √(17)/2

  = (-1 ± 4.12)/2

  = (-1 + 4.12)/2 or (-1 - 4.12)/2

  <u>x = 1.56  or x = -2.56</u>

You are given a rectangular sheet of cardboard that measures 11 in. by 8.5 in. (see the diagram below). A small square of the sa
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Terrence's

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the square that will be cut out is the height of the box.

1. a

Anya's method: 8.5 -1.5 =7, 11- 1.5 =9.5, the height is 1.5, so the volume is height x length x width which is 1.5 x 9.5 x 7 =99.75 squared inches.

Terrence's method: 8.5-3 = 5.5, 11-3 = 8. Vol= 5.5 x 8 x 3 =132 squared inches. 99.75 < 132 squared inches, Terrence's idea would create larger volume.

1. b

The box's size depends on the length/width/height of the cardboard being cut, which is why different measurements / cutting methods for the same size cardboard can result in different box sizes.

2. The square would be cut from all four corners, therefore the sum of the 2 squares on the cardboard cannot exceed the short side of the cardboard. The shorter side of the cardboard is 8.5 inches, divided by 2 = 4.25 inches, hence the squares cannot  be larger than 4.25 inches. Keep in mind that if you cut exactly 4.25 inches you will have a strip of 2.5 inches width that cannot be turned into a box.

If you want to cut 5 inches squares out, depending on how you draw it, it would either overlap or go outside of the paper because 5+5 is ten, surely on the 11 inches side that would still be perfectly fine but for the 8.5 inches side, there isn't any room for the 10 inches.
