Answer: $84.78

Step-by-step explanation:

If the bottom of the fish pond is round which means it has to be a circle, and to find the space that needs to be covered,you need to find the area of the bottom of the pond.

So it has a diameter of 30  and to find the area you need to find the radius,square it and multiply it by pi.  

The radius will be 15 because the radius is half the diameter.

A= 15^2 * 3.14   we will use 3.14  as an approximation for pi.

A= 225 * 3.14

A= 706.5  

Now after you have find the area multiply it by the amount of money that each tile cost to fin the total amount of money you have to pay.

706.5 * 0.12= 84.78

So approximately you will spend $84.78 on tiles

Answer:

about $3.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it's a round pond and the tiles are square they might be cut a little but the main point of the question would be the 12 cents PER tile. Per is the one of the words to show multiplication. So you multiply .12 x 30 to get 3.6 and since this is money it would be $3.60

Hope that helps and have a great day!

Suppose you select a sample of 12 individuals and find that 10 of them do not exercise regularly. Assuming that the Surveillance
Leto [7]

Answer:

a. mean = 6.96 , standard deviation = 1.71 b. 0.0641

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

According to the Behavioural Risk Factor Surveillance System, 58% of all Americans adhere to a sedentary lifestyle (sedentary means does not exercise).

a. If you selected repeated samples of 12 from the U.S. population, what would be the mean number of individuals per sample who do not exercise regularly? What would be the standard deviation?

b. Suppose you select a sample of 12 individuals and find that 10 of them do not exercise regularly. Assuming that the Surveillance System is correct, what is the probability that you would have obtained results as bad or worse than expected?

<em>Solution</em>

a. Since we can only have two types of outcomes, that is, those who exercise and those who do not exercise, the problem follows a binomial distribution.

Since the probability of those who do not exercise, p = 58 % = 0.58,

the mean of the binomial distribution μ = np where n = sample number = 12

So, μ = 12 × 0.58 = 6.96

The standard deviation of a binomial distribution σ = √(npq) where q = probability that people exercise = 1 - p = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42

So, σ = √(12 × 0.58 × 0.42) = √2.9232 = 1.71

b. To find the worst case, we consider the probability that at best, two exercise. Since two exercise, the probability that at best two exercise is ¹²C₂q²p¹⁰ + ¹²C₁qp¹¹ + ¹²C₀q⁰p¹²

= (12 × 11/2)(0.42)²(0.58)¹⁰ + 12(0.42)(0.58)¹¹ + 1 × (0.42)⁰(0.58)¹²

= 0.05 + 0.0126 + 0.00145

= 0.06405

≅ 0.0641

An equation is shown below: 8(2x – 14) + 13 = 4x – 27 Part A: Write the steps you will use to solve the equation, and explain ea
blsea [12.9K]
1) Distribute 8(2x-14) + 13 = 4x - 27 then simplify like terms to get: 16x - 99 = 4x - 27.
2) Subtract 4x on both sides and at the same time add 99 to both sides to get: 12x=72.
3) Divide both sides by 12 to get x=6.
PART B: 6 makes the equation true because you just solved for it.

I beg for someone. I need a maximum, minimum, domain, and range of polynomial:
elena-s [515]

Answer:

  • domain: all real numbers, (-∞, ∞)
  • range: all real numbers, (-∞, ∞)
  • maximum: +∞
  • minimum: -∞

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is an odd-degree polynomial. The domain and range of any odd-degree polynomial is (-∞, +∞). It has no finite maximum or minimum.

There are 3 local maxima, and 3 local minima. The ones that are non-zero are irrational. Those are about -150.018, -580.455, and 578.545. If you're seriously expected to solve for these values, no doubt you have been given a method for doing so. Use that method.

These local extreme values are reported by the Desmos on-line graphing calculator.
