Answer:

No 1 inch cubes will fit

28 one-half inch cubes will fit

Step-by-step explanation:

No cubes with a side length of 1 inch will fit because one dimension of the prism is only 1/2 inches, so we can't fit a 1 inch cube in anywhere.

Since one dimension is 1/2 inch, we can line up 1/2 inch cubes along the other 2 dimensions. Let's say that the 1/2 inch dimension is the base, the 2 inch dimension is the height, and the 7/2 inch dimension is the length.

We can stack the cubes 4 high, (2 inches of height with 1/2 inch being the cube height, there are 4 halves in 2).

We can place 7 cubes along the length (7/2 inches = 3.5 inches. There are 7 halves in 3.5).

So we can have 4(7) = 28 one half inch cubes can fit in to the prism

At the bank of a river, by measurement, a = 9 ft., b = 15 ft., c = 12 ft., and d = 7 ft.How long is x?

Orlov [11]

Answer: x is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

This is ratio

a : c = b : x and d : unknown

a : c = 9 : 12 = 3 : 4 which is 9/12

b : x = 15 : x which is 15 / x

So the proportion will be :

3/4 = 15/x

So Cross multiplying

3x = 90

Divide both side by 3

x = 90/3

x = 20

Let f(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 + 3x + 1 and g(x)= 4x-5 Find f(x) x g(x)

Brums [2.3K]

$▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ { \huge \mathfrak{Answer}}▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪$

Given :

$f(x) = {x}^{3} + 2 {x}^{2} + 3x + 1$

$g(x) = 4x - 5$

let's solve for f(x) × g(x) :

$( {x}^{3} + 2x {}^{2} + 3x + 1)(4x - 5)$

$4x {}^{4} - 5 {x}^{3} + 8 {x}^{3 } - 10 {x}^{2} + 12 {x}^{2} - 15x + 4x - 5$

$4 {x}^{4} + 3 {x}^{3} + 2 {x}^{2} - 11x - 5$

therefore, correct choice is : D

A government report gives a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of welfare recipients who have been receiving welfare ben

juin [17]

Answer:

The estimation for the proportion for this case is $\hat p = 0.21$

And we know that the 99% confidence interval is given by:

$0.21 \pm 0.045$

So then the margin of error at 99% of confidence is 0.045, and the margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME= z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we decrease the confidence level this margin of error can't be higher than 0.045 so then the correct answer for this case would be:

d. 21% ± 4.8%

Because if the z value decrease from 2.58 to 1.96 not makes sense that the margin of error increase from 0.045(4.5%) to 0.048(4.8%)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Solution to the problem

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 95% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2=0.025$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

For the 99% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

The estimation for the proportion for this case is $\hat p = 0.21$

And we know that the 99% confidence interval is given by:

$0.21 \pm 0.045$

So then the margin of error at 99% of confidence is 0.045, and the margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME= z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

If we decrease the confidence level this margin of error can't be higher than 0.045 so then the correct answer for this case would be:

d. 21% ± 4.8%

Because if the z value decrease from 2.58 to 1.96 not makes sense that the margin of error increase from 0.045(4.5%) to 0.048(4.8%)

Please answer within 7 minutes !!

Gnesinka [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = by - 3/2

x + 3/2 = by

y = x/b + 3/(2b)

now compare this to the first equation :

y = 2x + 3

the system has infinite solutions, if both equations are actually identical.

and they are only identical, if b = 1/2

y = x/(1/2) + 3/(2 × 1/2) = 2x + 3
