Which shows a correct way to determine the volume of the right rectangular prism?

mario went on a hike with his friends. they hiked 2,24 miles an hour for 8 hour. how many miles did they hike in all

lina2011 [118]

Do 224x8
This would equal 1792.
He traveled 1792 miles.
I hope you understand. :-)

A string of decorative lights is 25 feet long. The first light on the string is 16 inches from the plug. The lights on the strin

joja [24]

25 feet = 25 x 12 = 300 inches

First light is at 16 inches.
300 - 16 = 284 inches

Find the rest of the bulbs:
284 ÷ 4 = 71

Total number of lights = 71 + 1 = 72

Answer 72 lights

If a/4 = 9/a, then a²=36 4a = 9a a + 4 = 9 + a a - 4 = 9 - a

Anna [14]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The given expression : $\frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a}$ then;

$a^2 = 36$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: $\frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a}$

Cross multiplication the given expression following steps are as follow;

Multiply numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction

Also, Multiply numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.

then, set the two products equal to each other.

Using cross multiplication, on the given expression;

$\frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a}$

First multiply the numerator of the left hand fraction(i.e,a ) by the denominator of the right hand fraction (i,e a)

we have;

$\frac{a \times a}{4} = 9$

Simplify:

$\frac{a^2}{4} =9$ [1]

now, multiply numerator of the right-hand fraction( i.e, 9) by the denominator of the left-hand fraction (i.e, 4 ) in [1]

we have;

$a^2 = 9\times 4$

Simplify:

$a^2 = 36$

Therefore, the given expression is equal to: $a^2 = 36$

Please help it is multiple choice. Just read the question then answer it correctly

Korvikt [17]

First question, answer is A, the starting point in the graph shows it’s (0,150) while the slope is 30, look at the labeled axis.

second question, i have to do work for it, i can answer it later. remind me. but in order to find the slope, the formula is delta y over delta x. then to find the y intercept, do what’s called “collect the evidence”. this is when you fill out all needed info, it will look like this- y= x= m= b= ??

idk ab the third question, they would all make the function fine?? idk i’m confused, it doesn’t make sense

fourth question, the answer would be B

A manufacturer of Christmas light bulbs knows that 10% of these bulbs are defective. It is known that light bulbs are defective

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

(a) P(X $\leq$ 20) = 0.9319

(b) Expected number of defective light bulbs = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a manufacturer of Christmas light bulbs knows that 10% of these bulbs are defective. It is known that light bulbs are defective independently. A box of 150 bulbs is selected at random.

Firstly, the above situation can be represented through binomial distribution, i.e.;

$P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r} p^{r} (1-p)^{2} ;x=0,1,2,3,....$

where, n = number of samples taken = 150

r = number of success

p = probability of success which in our question is % of bulbs that

are defective, i.e. 10%

Now, we can't calculate the required probability using binomial distribution because here n is very large(n > 30), so we will convert this distribution into normal distribution using continuity correction.

So, Let X = No. of defective bulbs in a box

Mean of X, $\mu$ = $n \times p$ = $150 \times 0.10$ = 15

Standard deviation of X, $\sigma$ = $\sqrt{np(1-p)}$ = $\sqrt{150 \times 0.10 \times (1-0.10)}$ = 3.7

So, X ~ N( $\mu = 15, \sigma^{2} = 3.7^{2})$

Now, the z score probability distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

(a) Probability that this box will contain at most 20 defective light bulbs is given by = P(X $\leq$ 20) = P(X < 20.5) ---- using continuity correction

P(X < 20.5) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ < $\frac{20.5-15}{3.7}$ ) = P(Z < 1.49) = 0.9319

(b) Expected number of defective light bulbs found in such boxes, on average is given by = E(X) = $n \times p$ = $150 \times 0.10$ = 15.
