Answer:

No, the piece of Wood will not follow.

a) Volume = 0.00105 m³

b) Density of Wood = 1200 kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

For the piece of wood to float on salt water, the density of the wood should be less than 1030kg/m³

First we'll calculate the volume of the piece of wood, which later we'll use to find the density.

<h3>a) Volume of Wood</h3>

Volume is given by 7 cm × 10 cm × 15 cm

Convert all the values into meters.

7 cm = 7/100 = 0.07 m

10 cm = 10/100 = 0.10 m

15 cm = 15/100 = 0.15 m

Calculate Volume:

Volume = 0.07 m × 0.1 m × 0.15 m

Volume = 0.00105 m³

<h3>b) Density of Wood</h3>

Formula for density is given by

Density = Mass / Volume

Where

Volume = 0.00105 m³

Mass =  1260 g = 1260/100 = 1.260 kg

Density = 1.260 kg/0.00105 m³

Density of Wood = 1200 kg/m³

As Density of Wood ≥ Density of Salt water , the piece of Wood will not float.

Answer:

a

\= x  =  82

b

s =  9.64

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The data is  87  91  86  82  72  91   60  77  80  79  83  96

Generally the point estimate for the mean is mathematically represented as

    \= x  =  \frac{\sum  x_i }{n}

=>  \= x  =  \frac{87 +91 + 86 + \cdots  + 96}{12}

=>    \= x  =  82

Generally the point estimate for the standard deviation  is mathematically represented as

      s =  \sqrt{\frac{ \sum ( x_i  - \= x )^2 }{ n -1 } }

=>     s =  \sqrt{\frac{ ( 87 - 82  )^2 +( 91 - 82  )^2 + \cdots + ( 96 - 82  )^2  }{ 12 -1 } }

=>     s =  9.64

What is the probability of getting a number greater than or equal to 5 when rolling a number cube numbered 1 to 6?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

There is a 1/3 (or 0.33%) probability of rolling a number greater than or equal to 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find what numbers are greater than or equal to 5:

5 and 6

Find what options you can get on a number cube:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6

Out of the 6 possible outcomes, there are only 2 that will get a number greater than or equal to 5. Write this as a fraction:

2/6

Simplify:

1/3
