Answer:

375000 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the statement that we have that it would be 1 time the length and 2 times the width because one side is not necessary and also we must take into account that it would be divided by 3 equal enclosures therefore we will use 1000 feet (3000/3) so Therefore, the perimeter would be equal to:

1000 = l + 2 * w

we solve for w:

l = 1000 - 2 * w

Also the area is equal to:

A = w * l

replacing:

A = w * (1000 - 2 * w)

A = 1000 * w - 2 * w ^ 2

We derive:

A '= 1000 - 4 * w

Let's equal 0:

1000 - 4 * w = 0

w = 1000/4

w = 250

replacing and we calculate l:

l = 1000 - 2 * 250

l = 500

A = 250 * 500

A = 15,000 ft ^ 2

Which means that for each subdivision the maximum area would be 125000 square feet and the total would be:

125000 * 3 = 375000 ft ^ 2

Clarence collected data from a random sample of 900 working residents in his town asking whether or not they commute less than 1
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Sample is biased

Step-by-step explanation:

If data contains an outlier therefore it is not possible for a single outlier to demonstrate such a dominant outcome for the sample statistics.

It would seem that the sample is biassed, and therefore it contains peoples commuting to work for less than 10 miles. And this can be the consequence.

Although the sample size is 900 and therefore sufficient size is required to come to conclusions.

If p stays constant and u is doubled what happens to e? given U=EP
Stolb23 [73]

We are given the expression:

U = E * P

 

The equality symbol “ = “ means that for all cases, the value of U and E * P must always be equal. This means that whatever happens on the left side, must equally happen on the right side.

 

So what this actually means is that, if we double U so we must also double the expression E * P, that is:

2 U = 2 (E * P)

 

However since P stays constant in the process, therefore only E is changed, hence:

2 U = P * 2 E

 

So we can see that E is also doubled.

The digits 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8 are arranged randomly to form a three-digit number find the probability that the number is even a
Korvikt [17]
So each digits can only be selected once.

Let's start counting desired outcome.

Hundred position need to be at least 8. There is only one possible digits. So we will go with 8 and then there are 7 remaining digits.

One position can only be 2,4,6. because we need number to be even. So that's 3 possible digits. We will take one. 6 digits remaining.

Ten position can be anything so that would be 6 possible digits.

So the number of desired outcomes is 3·6 = 18.

Now count all outcomes.

Hundred, ten, and one position can get any digits

So that's 8·7·6 = 336

So the probability would be 18 / 336 = 3 / 56 ≈ 0.0536

Hope this helps.
