Answer:

a) There is a 55% probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

b) There is a 38% probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

c) There is a 21% probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

d) There is a 62% probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

Step-by-step explanation:

This a probability problem.

The probability formula is given by:

P = \frac{D}{T}

In which P is the probability, D is the number of desired outcomes and T is the number of total outcomes.

The problem states that:

121 people walked by the store.

66 people came into the store.

25 bought something in the store.

(a) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

121 people walked by the store, 66 of whom entered the store. So:

D = 66, T = 121

P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{66}{121} = 0.55

There is a 55% probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

(b) Estimate the probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

66 people walked into the store, 25 of whom bought something. So:

D = 25, T = 66

P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{25}{66} = 0.38

There is a 38% probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

(c) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

121 people walked by the store, 25 of whom entered the store. So:

D = 25, T = 121

P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{25}{121} = 0.21

There is a 21% probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

(d) Estimate the probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

Of the 66 people whom came into the store, 25 bought something. This means that 66-25 = 41 of them did not buy anything. So:

D = 41, T = 66

P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{41}{66} = 0.62

There is a 62% probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

A boy makes a cuboid of plasticine of sides 5cm, 2cm, 5cm. How manny such cuboids will he need to form a cube?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L.C.M. of 5,2=10

so it should be  of dimensions 10×10×10

it should have 5 cuboids in first row.

then it will make a cuboid 5×10×5

5 cuboids in the second row on top of first row .

Then it will make 5×10×10 cuboid

To make 10×10×10

double the cuboids  to make the length=10 and height=10..

so in all 20 cuboids are needed.

2 rows of 5 cuboids on the floor and 2 rows of 5 cuboids on the top.

in all 10 cuboids of  dimensions 5×2×5

so 9 more cuboids are needed to make a c
