ivanzaharov [21]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share. The algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share with a book club.

Each box contains 12 cookies.

So, in total we have 3 x 12 cookies = 36 cookies.

Now, we have to find how many cookies can each person p will get.

Let, the total number of persons be x.

Then, after equally sharing the cookies,

$\text { Number of cookies with each person }=\frac{\text {number } of \text { cookies available.}}{\text {total number of persons}}$

$=\frac{36}{x} \text { cookies. }$

Hence, the algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

A plot of land has an area of 33.75 square feet. Jackson wants to put a 4-foot by 4-foot shed on the land. He can only do this i

Semenov [28]

The area of a trapezoid is
A = (1/2) h (b1 + b2)
where
h is the height
b1 is length of base 1
b2 is the length of base 2

We are given with the area and assuming that the trapezoid is isosceles, the length of base 1 is
b1 = 4 ft
If the height of the trapezoid is 4.5 feet, it ensures that the shed will fit inside the trapezoid patch of land. Therefore, the height of the trapezoid is 4.5 feet.

A student wants to estimate the mean score of all college students for a particular exam. First use the range rule of thumb to m

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

See explanation below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

range = 2200 - 300 = 1900

To find standard deviation, we have:

standard deviation = range/4 = $\frac{1900}{4}$ = 475

The range rule of thumb estimate for the standard deviation is 475

Given:

Standard deviation, $\sigma$ = 475

Margin of Error, ME = 100

$\alpha$ = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

Za/2 = Z0.05 = 1.64

Find sample size, n:

n ≥ $[Z_\alpha_/_2 * (\frac{\sigma}{ME})]^2$

n ≥ $[1.64 * (\frac{475}{100})]^2$

n ≥ 60.68

≈ 61

Minimun sample size,n = 61
