Answer: Height = 20 inches

Width = 14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The aquarium is rectangular. The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular box is expressed as

Volume = LWH

Where L,W and H represents the length, width and height of the box.

The aquarium holding African cichlids is 6 inches higher than it is wide. It means that

H = W + 6

Its length is 33 inches, and its volume is 9240 cubic inches. It means that

9240 = 33W(W + 6)

9240/33 = W(W + 6)

280 = W² + 6W

W² + 6W + (6/2)² = 280 + (6/2)²

(W + 3)² = 280 + 9 = 289

Taking square root of both sides, it becomes

W + 3 = √289 = 17

W = 17 - 3

W = 14

H = W + 6 = 14 + 6

H = 20

A survey is made to determine the number of households having electric appliances in a certain city. It is found that 75% have r
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The probability that a household has at least one of these appliances is 0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of households having radios P(R) = 75% = 0.75

Percentage of households having electric irons P(I) = 65% = 0.65

Percentage of households having electric toasters P(T) = 55% = 0.55

Percentage of household having iron and radio P(I∩R) = 50% = 0.5

Percentage of household having radios and toasters P(R∩T) = 40% = 0.40

Percentage of household having iron and toasters P(I∩T) = 30% = 0.30

Percentage of household having all three P(I∩R∩T) = 20% = 0.20

Probability of households having at least one of the appliance can be calculated using the rule:

P(at least one of the three) = P(R) +P(I) + P(T) - P(I∩R) - P(R∩T) - P(I∩T) + P(I∩R∩T)

P(at least one of the three)=0.75 + 0.65 + 0.55 - 0.50 - 0.40 - 0.30 + 0.20  P(at least one of the three) = 0.95

The probability that a household has at least one of these appliances is 0.95
