Harriet needs to ship a small vase. The box she will use has a volume of 216 cubic inches. If the side lengths are all the same,

what is the length of each side of the box? Hint: V = $s^{3}$

The box has a shape of cube. The volume of cube with side s in is

$V_{cube}=s^3\ in^2.$

Since Harriet uses a box of volume 216 cubic inches, then

$V_{cube}=216\ in^3$

and, therefore,

$216=s^3.$

Note that $216=6^3,$ then

$6^3=s^3,\\ \\s=6\ in.$

Answer: the length of each side of the box is 6 inches.

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it contains a golden sheet of paper, or it does not. The probability of a container containing a golden sheet of paper is independent of other containers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper containers.

This means that $p = 0.3$

14 of these containers of paper.

This means that $n = 14$

What is the probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper?

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{14} = 0.0068$

$P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{13} = 0.0407$

$P(X = 2) = C_{14,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.1134$

$P(X = 3) = C_{14,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{11} = 0.1943$

$P(X = 4) = C_{14,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.2290$

$P(X = 5) = C_{14,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{9} = 0.1963$

$P(X = 6) = C_{14,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{8} = 0.1262$

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0068 + 0.0407 + 0.1134 + 0.1943 + 0.2290 + 0.1963 + 0.1262 = 0.9067$

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

Explain how to do distributive property. Use an example.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

so we have 4(3x + 10)

then we are going to take the 4 and distribute it into our problem

so: 4(times)3x and then 4( times)10

to get :

<h2>12x+40</h2>

Eula needs to buy binders that cost $4 each and notebooks that cost $2 each. She has $20. The graph of the inequality 4x + 2y ≤

Zolol [24]

She has to buy both binders and notebooks. So, you have to take into account that she has to have both. The closest you can get to $20 while still getting notebooks, is to buy 4 binders. 4 times 4 equals 16. So, she can get 4 binders and 2 notebooks, because then, 2 times 2 equals 4 and 16 plus 4 equals 20.
