Multiply 9 feet times 12 inches and you get 108 inches. Then take 108 inches and divide it by 12 sections, you get 9 inches.
Answer: Each section should be 9 inches long, or 0.75, or 3/4 feet long.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that the question is interested in the probability that a randomly chosen class is a Friday class with a lab experiment (2/15). That is somewhat different from the probability that a lab experiment is conducted on a Friday (2/3).
Based on our assumption, we want to create a simulation that includes a 1/5 chance of the day being a Friday, along with a 2/3 chance that the class has a lab experiment on whatever day it is.
That simulation can consist of choosing 1 of 5 differently-colored marbles, and rolling a 6-sided die with 2/3 of the numbers being designated as representing a lab-experiment day. (The marble must be replaced and the marbles stirred for the next trial.) For our purpose, we can designate the yellow marble as "Friday", and numbers greater than 2 as "lab-experiment".
The simulation of 70 different choices of a random class is shown in the attachment.

<em>Comment on the question</em>
IMO, the use of <em>70 trials</em> is coincidentally the same number as the first <em>70 days</em> of school. The calendar is deterministic, so there will be exactly 14 Fridays in that period. If, in 70 draws, you get 16 yellow marbles, you cannot say, "the probability of a Friday is 16/70." You need to be very careful to properly state the question you're trying to answer.
Answer:
-2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3.045%.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find the corresponding effective interest rate for 3% per year compounded continuously.
We will use effective interest formula to solve our given problem.
, where,
r = Effective interest rate,
e = Mathematical constant,
r = Interest rate in decimal form.
Let us convert given interest rate in decimal form.
Substitute values:
Convert into percentage:
Therefore, the corresponding interest rate would be 3.045%.
