25 in of rain in 2 weeks.

there are 14 days in 2 weeks

25/14 = 1.785 in per day

1.785 x 31 = 55.335 in. of rain

55.335 in of rain is your answer

hope this helps

55.337 because  1.79571428 inches per day and 31 days so 31 x 1.79571428 = 55.337

A rectangular field is to be enclosed by a fence and divided
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

80000 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter + dividing fence = 800

let a = length

let b = width

let c = length of dividing fence

perimeter = 2*a + 2*b

let's say...

c is the same as the length

2a + 2b + c = 800

2a + 2b + a = 800

3a + 2b = 800

area = length*width

area = a*b

area / b = a

3*(area/b) + 2b = 800

3*(area/b) = 800 - 2b

area/b = (800 - 2b)

area = (800 - 2b)*b

To make the area large, we make the right hand side large.

800b - 2b^2

If you put in terms of x, y it looks like a downward opening parabola, so the max area is at the vertex. Half way between the roots.

y = -2x^2 + 800x

y = -x^2 + 400x

0 = x*(-x + 400)

roots are x= 0 and x = 400

vertex is at x, aka b = 200

area at b=200 is (800 - 400)*200 = 80000

and a is area/b... 80000/400 = 200

54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability
Degger [83]

Part B is not clear and the clear one is;

P(X ≥ 6)

Answer:

A) 0.238

B) 0.478

C) 0.114

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will make use of binomial probability formula;

P(X = x) = nCx × p^(x)•(1 - p) ^(n - x)

A) 54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. Thus;

p = 0.54

10 random adults are selected. Thus;

P(X = 5) = 10C5 × 0.54^(5) × (1 - 0.54)^(10 - 5)

P(X = 5) = 0.238

B) P(X ≥ 6) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

From online binomial probability calculator, we have;

P(X ≥ 6) = 0.2331 + 0.1564 + 0.0688 + 0.01796 + 0.0021 = 0.47836 ≈ 0.478

C) P(x<4) = P(3) + P(2) + P(1) + P(0)

Again with online binomial probability calculations, we have;

P(x<4) = 0.1141 ≈ 0.114

Mark had 4 members in his family each of the person get 1/6 what Is the fraction of the tomato use fraction strips
umka21 [38]

If each person got 1/6 then there is still 2/6 left over, =1/3. In fraction strips, we would do

                  1

  1/3         1/3        1/3                                                                 1/3

1/6 1/6   1/6 1/6  1/6 1/6 for the overall tomato and then  1/6 1/6  for the remaining piece of the tomato.

Hope this helps, if you need any more help just comment :)
