Answer: 0.3741

Step-by-step explanation:

Poison probability ;

P(x) = [U(^x) e(^-U)] ÷ x!

Where U = mean

Note: e = exponential symbol

Number of checks that year = 171

Number of days in a year = 365

U = 171/365 = 0.468

Average checks per day = 0.4685

Probability that at least one check was written per day is can be calculated by;

P(not 0) = 1 - P(0)

Therefore,

P(x) = [U(^x) e(^-U)] ÷ x!

P(0) = [ 0.4685^0 * e^-0.4685] ÷ 0!

P(0) = [ 1 * 0.6259] ÷ 1

P(0) = 0.6259

Therefore,

P(not 0) = 1 - 0.6259 = 0.3741

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the perimeter of the base is 10.7\text{ ft}10.7 ft and the height of the
Airida [17]

Answer:

V=23.37\ ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The perimeter of the base of pyramid, P = 10.7 ft

The height of the pyramid, h = 9.8 ft

We need to find the volume of the pyramid.

The perimeter of square is given by :

4s = 10.7, s is side

s = 2.675 ft

Now the volume of pyramid is given by :

V=\dfrac{lbh}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{2.675^2\times 9.8}{3}\\\\V=23.37\ ft^3

So, the volume of the pyramid is equal to 23.37\ ft^3.

Mr. Ramirez built a wooden storage shed for his tools. The dimensions of the shed are shown below. What is the volume of the sto
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Volume = 24\ ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [Missing from the question]

Length = 170cm\\ Width = 100cm\\ Height = 40cm

Required

Determine the volume

This is calculated as:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Volume = 170cm * 100cm * 40cm

Volume = 680000cm^3

Convert to cubic foot [Divide by 28317 ]

Volume = \frac{680000\ ft/^3}{28317}

Volume = 24.0138432744\ ft^3

Volume = 24\ ft^3 --- approximated
