<h2>Answer:</h2>

A) The 24 pack of cups has more ice cream than the 21 pack of cones.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We will find the volume of 1 cone and 1 cup.

<h2>Volume of cone :</h2>

V = $\pi r^{2}\frac{h}{3}$

r = 2 inches

h = 6 inches

V = $3.14\times2\times2\times\frac{6}{3} =25.12$ cubic inches

<h2>Volume of cup :</h2>

V = $\pi r^{2} h$

r = 1.5 inches

h = 3 inches

V = $3.14\times1.5\times1.5\times3=21.195$ cubic inches

<h2>Now we will check the given statements:</h2><h2 />

A) The 24 pack of cups has more ice cream than the 21 pack of cones.

Volume of 24 cups = $24\times21.195=508.68$ cubic inches

Volume of 21 cones = $21\times25.12=527.52$ cubic inches

We can see that 24 cups have less ice cream than 21 cones. So, this statement is wrong.

B) The 12 pack of cups has more than 250 cubic inches of ice cream.

Volume of 12 cups = $12\times21.195=254.348$ cubic inches

Yes, this is correct statement.

C) The 14 pack of cones has more than 350 cubic inches of ice cream.

Volume of 14 cones = $14\times25.12=351.68$ cubic inches

Yes, this is correct statement.

D) the 12 pack of cups has enough ice cream to fill in a cylinder container, 8" tall and 6" wide.

Volume of cylinder with height 8 inches and radius 3 inches.

V = $3.14\times3\times3\times8=226.08$ cubic inches

And volume of 12 cups is = $12\times21.195=254.348$ cubic inches

Yes, there is enough ice cream to fill the cylinder. This is correct statement.

<h2>Therefore, option A is the only wrong option.</h2>

Find the first 5 terms in the sequence an = 2n - 1

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

1, 3, 5, 7, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_n = 2n - 1$

n = 1:

$a_1 = 2(1) - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1$

n = 2:

$a_2 = 2(2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3$

n = 3:

$a_3 = 2(3) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5$

n = 4:

$a_4 = 2(4) - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7$

n = 5:

$a_5 = 2(5) - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9$

Answer: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9

Please help answer the following question

Elena L [17]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The unmarked angle of the triangle is also 40o. The triangle is marked with two equal sides (isosceles).

<2 + 40 + 40 = 180 Combine the left

<2 + 80 = 180 Subtract 80 from both sides

<2 = 180 - 80

<2 = 100 degrees.

That's not the answer. We have to solve for x

<2 = x + 106

100 = x + 106 Subtract 106 from both sides

100 - 106 = x

x = - 6

Suppose that the rate of return on stocks is normally dis-tributed with mean of 9% and a standard deviation of 3%. If I pick fiv

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The probability that at least two stocks will have a return of more than 12% is 0.1810.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = rate of return on stocks.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution, N (9, 3²).

Compute the probability that a stock has rate of return more than 12% as follows:

$P(X\geq 12)=1-P(X$

**Use the <em>z</em> table for the probability.

The probability of a stock having rate of return more than 12% is 0.1587.

Now define a random variable <em>Y</em> as the number of stocks that has rate of return more than 12%.

The sample size of stocks selected is, <em>n</em> = 5.

The random variable <em>Y </em>follows a Binomial distribution.

The probability of a Binomial distribution is:

$P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x};\ x=0, 1, 2, ...$

Compute the value of P (X ≥ 2) as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

$=1-{5\choose 0}(0.1587)^{0}(1-0.1587)^{5-0}-{5\choose 1}(0.1587)^{1}(1-0.1587)^{5-1}\\=1-0.4215-0.3975\\=0.1810$

Thus, the probability that at least two stocks will have a return of more than 12% is 0.1810.
