Answer: $70

EXPLANATION

Given, for a 4 inch wide crown molding:

8 ft length costs $14

Cost of 40 ft length = ?

8 ft length costs $14

To find the cost of 1 ft length,

Divide through by 8

8ft/8 length costs $14/8

1ft costs $1.75

Now, to find the cost of 40 ft length

1ft costs $1.75

1 ft x 40 would cost $1.75

40 ft would cost $70

Therefore, it would cost $70 to buy 40 ft of crown molding

Hi there! :)

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x = 10,000}$

Given:

$logx = 4$

The given expression is a logarithm with a base of 10, therefore we can rewrite this as:

$10^{4} = x$

Evaluate:

$x = 10,000$

A rare form of malignant tumor occurs in 11 children in a million, so its probability is 0.000011. Four cases of this tumor occ

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

a) The mean number of cases is 0.14608 cases.

b) The probability that the number of cases is exactly 0 or 1 is 0.990.

c) The probability of more than one case is 0.010

d) No, because the probability of more than one case is very small

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this problem with a Poisson distribution, with parameter:

$\lambda=r*t=0.000011*13,280=0.14608$

a) The mean amount of cases is equal to the parameter λ=0.14608.

b) The probability of having 0 or 1 cases is:

$P(k=0)=\frac{\lambda^0 e^{-\lambda}}{0!}=\frac{1*0.864}{1} =0.864\\\\ P(k=1)=\frac{\lambda^1 e^{-\lambda}}{0!}=\frac{0.14608*0.864}{1} =0.126\\\\P(k\leq1)=0.864+0.126=0.990$

c) The probability of more than one case is:

$P(k>1)=1-P(k\leq 1)=1-0.990=0.010$

d) The cluster of 4 cases can not be due to pure chance, as it is a very high proportion of cases according to the average rate. Just having more than one case has a probability of 1%.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (13,-8) and (-11,4)

pogonyaev

Answer:

- $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find slope using the slope formula : $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Plug in the given points : $\frac{4- (-8)}{-11-13}$

Add the numbers : $\frac{12}{-11-13}$

Calculate the difference : $\frac{12}{-24}$

Reduce the fraction : - $\frac{1}{2}$

Solution : - $\frac{1}{2}$

For the dinner special at a restaurant , the customer must choose a salad, an entree, a side dish, and a dessert... How many din

Alekssandra [29.7K]

All you need to do is multiply the different types of each choice.

For salad, there are three different items. For entree, there are four different items. For side dish, there are three different items. for dessert, there are three different items.

Multiply the four numbers:

$3 \times 4 \times 3 \times 3 = 108$

108 dinner specials are possible.

donte bought a computer that was 20% off the regular price of $1.080. If an 8% sales tax was added to the cost of the computer,

Oxana [17]

So 20% of $1,080 is 216.

1080 - 216 is 864

8% of 864 is 69.12

864 + 69.12 would be $933.12
