Answer:

0.073

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Probability of ethnic minorities (P) = 0.33

Number of Trials (n) = 10

Required successes (x) = 6 or more

To find the answer for this problem we will employ the Binomial Probability equation

b(x; n, P) = nCx * P^x * (1-P)^n^-^x

To find the answer for 6 or more success we first calculate the following values

1) 6 success

2) 7 success

3) 8 success

4) 9 success

5) 10 success

so

b6 = 10C6 * (0.33)^6 * (1-0.33)^1^0^-^6 = 0.0547

b7 = 10C7 * (0.33)^7 * (1-0.33)^1^0^-^7 = 0.0154

b8 = 10C8 * (0.33)^8 * (1-0.33)^1^0^-^8 = 2.841 * 10^-^3

b9 = 10C9 * (0.33)^9 * (1-0.33)^1^0^-^9 = 3.110 * 10^-^4

b10 = 10C10 * (0.33)^10 * (1-0.33)^1^0^-^10 = 1.532 * 10^-^5

Adding all these values we get the probabilities we get 0.0732

A rectangular prism has a length of 7 m, a height of 5 m, and a volume of 140 m3. What is the width?
BigorU [14]

The question is incomplete because it was not properly and correctly arranged

Complete Question:

A rectangular prism has a length of 7 m, a height of 5 m, and a volume of 140 m³. What is the width? A prism has a length of 7 meters, width of w, and height of 5 meters.

Which steps are correct? Check all that apply.

a) Substitute the known values into the formula: 140 = 7(w)(5).

b) Substitute the known values into the formula: 7 = 140(w)(5).

c) Substitute the known values into the formula: 5 = 7(w)(140).

d) Solve for the unknown: w = 4 m.

e) Solve for the unknown: w = 7 m.

f) Solve for the unknown: w = 2 m.

Answer:

a) Substitute the known values into the formula: 140 = 7(w)(5).

d) Solve for the unknown: w = 4 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps that are correct are Options a) and d). This is because:

Step 1

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated as:

Volume of a rectangular prism = Length (l) × Width(w) × Height(h)

The unit of the volume or a rectangular prism is in cubic metres (m³)

In the question, we are asked to find the unknown value which is the width and we were given the following known values:

Length = 7 m,

Height = 5 m

Volume = 140 m³

Step 2

Solve for the unknown value( Width)

Volume of a rectangular prism = Length (L) × Width(W) × Height(H)

140m³ = 7m × Width(m) × 5m

140m³ = 35m² × Width(m)

Width(w) = 140m³ ÷ 35m²

Width(w) = 4m

Hence, the unknown Width(w) = 4m

From the above explanation we can see that the correct steps is Option a) and Option d)
