Answer:

Equation:

2(x+(x+1))=18

Width = 4 feet

Length = 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x feet be the width of the rectangle.

If the length of the sandbox is one foot longer than the width, then the length is x + 1 feet.

Use formula

\text{Perimeter}=2(\text{Width}+\text{Length})

The perimeter of a childs rectangular sandbox is 18 feet, thus

18=2(x+(x+1))\\ \\18=2(x+x+1)\\ \\18=2(2x+1)\\ \\9=2x+1\ [\text{Divided by 2}]\\ \\2x+1-1=9-1\\ \\2x=8\\ \\x=4\ feet \\ \\x+1=5 \ feet

Answer:

Thirty-two percent of fish in a large lake are bass. Imagine scooping out a simple random sample of 15 fish from the lake and observing the sample proportion of bass. What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution? Determine whether the 10% condition is met.

A.  The standard deviation is 0.8795. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 150 bass in the lake.

B. The standard deviation is 0.8795. The 10% condition is not met because there are less than 150 bass in the lake.

C. The standard deviation is 0.1204. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 150 bass in the lake.

D. The standard deviation is 0.1204. The 10% condition is not met because there are less than 150 bass in the lake.

E. We are unable to determine the standard deviation because we do not know the sample mean. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 150 bass in the lake

The answer is E.

A cube-shaped gift box has a volume of 5.12 cubic inches. What is the side length of the box?
kati45 [8]

recall that a cube has all equal sides, check the picture below.


\bf \textit{volume of a cube}\\\\
V=x^3~~
\begin{cases}
x=side's~length\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
V=5.12
\end{cases}\implies 5.12=x^3
\\\\\\
\sqrt[3]{5.12}=x\implies 1.72354775\approx x

Twenty percent of the employees in a company have managerial positions, and 25 percent of the employees in the company have MBA
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

12%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree.

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=P(MBA and manager)*100

We are given that

P(MBA)=0.25

P(Manager)=0.20

P(MBA/ manager)=0.60

P(MBA and manager)=?

P(MBA/ manager)=P(MBA and manager)/P(Manager)

P(MBA/ manager)*P(Manager)=P(MBA and manager)

P(MBA and manager)=0.6*0.2

P(MBA and manager)=0.12

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=0.12*100

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=12%.

Thus, the percentage of the employees is both manager and has MBA degree is 12%
