744 square inches octagon area
Nikolay [14]3 years ago

The 8 sides of the regular octagon are all the same length, so the perimeter of it is 8*(12.4 in) = 99.2 in.

The area of a regular polygon is half the product of the perimeter and the apothem.
  area = (1/2)(99.2 in)(15 in) = 744 in²

The area of the stop sign is 744 in².

22% of adults would pay more for environmentally friendly products he randomly select 10 adults find the probability that the nu
Anettt [7]

Answer: 0.383 and 0.6671

Step-by-step explanation:

Take 22%, that is 0.22 to be probability of success.

That means "1-0.22 = 0.78" is the probability of failure.

When dealing with selection in probability mathematics, the combination equation is used.

Probability of selecting number 'r' as a successful outcome from a given number 'n' is given as

nCr * p^r * q^n-r

Where p is the probability of success= 0.22

q is the probability of failure= 0.78

n is the total number of sample =10

r is the varying outcome of number of success.

For the first question, number of success is asked to be everything more than 2, that is probability of choosing 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 people with a successful outcome (adults who will pay more for environmentally friendly product.)

Instead of going through the long process of checking probability of success for choosing 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 adults who will pay more, we can simply find the probability of choosing 0,1,2 adults who will pay more and subtract the answer from 1.

By doing this, we first check for probability of choosing 0 adult that will pay More and this is gotten by putting r=0 in our probability Formula. The Formula becomes

=10C0 * 0.22^0 * 0.78^10

=1 *1 * 0.0834= 0.0834

Hence, Probability of Choosing 0 adult that will Pay more is 0.0834

To Check for probability of choosing 1 adult that will pay more becomes

=10C1 * 0.22^1 * 0.78^9

=10 * 0.22 * 0.1069 = 0.2352

Hence, Probability of choosing 1adult that will pay more = 0.2352

To Check for the probability of choosing 2adults that will pay more becomes

=10C2 * 0.22^2 * 0.78^8

=45 * 0.0484 * 0.1370 = 0.2984

Therefore the total sum of choosing 0,1,2 adults that are willing to pay more becomes

= 0.0834+ 0.2352+ 0.2984 = 0.617

So to determine the probability of choosing more than 2 adults, that is, 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 adults that are willing to pay more, we subtract 0.617 from 1.

This gives 1-0.617 = 0.383

Hence, probability of choosing more than 2 people that are willing to pay more than 2 = 0.383.

To determine the probability of choosing between two and five people inclusive, we follow the same probability formular but r becomes 2,3,4,5 differently.

For probability of choosing 2 adults, we already calculated it to be 0.2984 earlier.

For probability of choosing 3 adults, it becomes

10C3 * 0.22^3 * 0.78^7

=120* 0.0106 * 0.1757 = 0.2235

For the probability of choosign 4 adults, it becomes

10C4 * 0.22^4 * 0.78^6

= 210 * 0.0023 * 0.2252 = 0.1088

For the probability of choosing 5 adults, it becomes

10C5 * 0.22^5 * 0.78^5

= 252 * 0.0005 * 0.2887 = 0.0364

Hence, the probability of choosing between 2 and 5 adults becomes

0.2984 + 0.2235 + 0.1088 + 0.0364 = 0.6671

Lee wants to collect 22 of a certain type of action figure. He had 11 of the figures, then got 3 more for his birthday. What dec
Shalnov [3]

To solve this problem, we must first find the fraction of action figures that Lee has gotten so far.  To do this, we will represent the number of action figures that Lee currently has in the numerator divided by the denominator, the total number of action figures that Lee is attempting to collect.

First, we must recognize that Lee currently has 11 action figures plus the 3 that he got for his birthday.  To find the total number of action figures that Lee has, we must add together these two parts.  

11+3 = 14

Therefore, Lee has 14 action figures (this will become the numerator of the fraction).  The denominator of the fraction is the total number of action figures, which we are given is 22.

Thus, our fraction is 14/22.

To convert this into a decimal, we can simply divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator of the fraction, which gives us:

14/22 = 0.636363636

Therefore, your answer is approximately 0.636.

Hope this helps!
