<u>Answer:   </u>

Dimension of pool are length = 12 feet, width = 54 feet and depth = 6 feet.

<u>Solution :  </u>

Need to find dimensions of a swimming pool.

Depth of pool = 6 feet

Given that one side of the pool is 4.5 times longer than other.

Let’s say width of pool = x

So other side that is length of the pool = 4.5x  

\text { Volume of cuboid }=\text { length } \times \text { width } \times \text { depth }

\text { volume of swimming pool }=6 \times x \times 4.5 x

volume of pool = 27 x^{2} --- eqn 1

Also given that amount of water needed to fill the pool is 3888 cubic feet that is volume of pool is 3888 cubic feet. Substituting volume in equation (1)

3888=27 x^{2}

Now solving above equation for x.

x^{2}=\frac{3888}{27}=144=12^{2}

so x = 12

so width of pool = x = 12 feet  

By substituting the value of “x” we get length of pool

And length of pool = 4.5x = 4.5 \times 12 = 54 feet

Hence dimension of pool are length = 12 feet, width = 54 feet and depth = 6 feet.

Let x be a Poisson random variable with μ = 9.5. Find the probabilities for x using the Poisson formula. (Round your answers to
miv72 [106K]

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation: the probability mass function that defines a possion probability distribution is given below as

P(x=r) = e^-u × u^x/x!

For this question, x = 0 and u = 9.5

Hence we have that

P(x=0) = e^-0 × 9.5^0 / 0!

P(x=0) = 1 × 1/ 1 = 1

How do you prove if quantities vary directly?
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If quantities vary directly, then one is simply the other multiplied by a fixed number. All sets of two numbers in a direct variation are one number multiplied by a fixed number to get the second number.

Example:

1 gallon of gasoline costs $3.50

2 gallons of gasoline cost $7.00

3 gallons of gasoline cost $10.50

Is the price of gasoline a direct variation based on the number of gallons?

3.5/1 = 3.5

7/2 = 3.5

10.5/3 = 3.5

When you multiply 1 gal, 2 gal, and 3 gal by the constant number 3.5 $/gal, you get the price. Since the multiplication is always by the same number, it is a direct variation.
