nsions 8 feet x 10 feet x 30 feet or 8 feet x 10 feet x 40 feet.
a) If 30% of its shipments are made by using 30-foot trailers and 70% by using 40-foot trailers. Find the mean volume shipped per trailer load?

Answer:

Mean volume shipped per trailer load = 2960 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both trailers are always full,

Total volume in one 30 feet trailer shipment = 8 × 10 × 30 = 2400 ft³

Total volume in one 40 feet trailer shipment = 8 × 10 × 40 = 3200 ft³

Assuming a basis of 10 shipments, 3 shipments are done using the 2400 ft³ trailer and 7 shipments are done using the 3200 ft³ trailer.

Mean volume shipped per trailer load = total volume shipped/number of shipments

Total volume shipped = (3 × 2400) + (7 × 3200) = 7200 + 22400 = 29600 ft³

Number of shipment in the basis used = 10

Mean volume shipped per trailer load = 29600/10 = 2960 ft³

A single die is rolled one time. Find the probability of rolling a number greater than 4 or less than 3.
Vika [28.1K]

<u>Answer: </u>

The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 or less than 3 is \frac{2}{3}

<u>Solution: </u>

In the given question there are two events as follows:

(a) Rolling a number greater than 4 i.e. A = {5,6}

(b) Rolling a number less than 3 i.e. B = {1,2}

Since a die has 6 numbers,

 P(A) = \frac{2}{6} where P(A) is the probability of occurrence of event A and P(B) = \frac{2}{6}

Since, Event A and Event B has nothing in common therefore they are mutually exclusive events.

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B)

=\frac{2}{6}+\frac{2}{6}

=\frac{4}{6}

=\frac{2}{3}

Therefore the probability of getting a number greater than 4 or less than 3 is \frac{2}{3}

Please help with scale factor!!!!!!!! I will mark brainliest if right! Two rectangular prisms have a side scale factor of 1/4. I
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

  • 1/16
  • 720 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is the product of two dimensions.

<u>If the scale factor is 1/4, the ratio of the areas will be: </u>

  • (1/4)² = 1/16

The smaller prism has a surface are of 45 cm².

<u>The larger prism has a surface area:</u>

  • 45*16 = 720 cm²

In 1960, the population of a town was 14 thousand people. Over the course of the next 50 years, the town grew at a rate of 30 pe
andre [41]

SOLUTIONS

Given: Assume y is the population

\begin{gathered} t=0=1960,y=14030 \\ t=1=1961,y=14060 \\ so\text{ b = 14000} \\ so\text{ k = 30} \end{gathered}

The town grow at the rate of 30 people per year.

y=kt+14000y=30t+14000

(A) The population predicted to be in 2030 will be

\begin{gathered} 2030-1960=70 \\ y=30k+14000 \\ y=30(70)+14000 \\ y=2100+14000 \\ y=16100people \end{gathered}

(B) so when y = 15000, find t

\begin{gathered} y=15000 \\ y=30t+14000 \\ 15000=30t+14000 \\ 15000-14000=30t \\ 1000=30t \\ t=\frac{1000}{30} \\ t\approx33 \\ t=1960+33 \\ t=1993 \end{gathered}
