A rectangular prism is 4 meters long, 5 meters wide, and has a height of 7 meters. What is its volume?

2 answers:

6 0

The volume of a rectangular prism is found with the formula
V = w · l · h
So if you substitute those variables for the dimensions of the prism you get
V = 5 · 4 · 7
Then you simplify
V = 20 · 7
V = 140

Therefore, the volume of the prism is answer choice 1, 140 meters³

So 4×5×7 so 4×5=20 and 20×7=140 so 140 is the answer

There are 15 candidates for 4 job positions.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

32760 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of Candidates = 15

Job Positions = 4

Required:

Number of outcomes

This question represent selection; i.e. selecting candidates for job positions;

This question can be solved in any of the following two ways

Method 1.

The first candidate can be chosen from any of the 15 candidates

The second candidate can be chosen from any of the remaining 14 candidates

The third candidate can be chosen from any of the remaining 13 candidates

The fourth candidate can be chosen from any of the remaining 12 candidates

Total Possible Selection = 15 * 14 * 13 * 12

Total Possible Selection = 32760 ways

Method 2:

This can be solved using permutation method which goes thus;

$nPr = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$

Where n = 15 and r = 4

So;

$nPr = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$ becomes

$15P4 = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!}$

$15P4 = \frac{15!}{11!}$

$15P4 = \frac{15*14*13*12*11!}{11!}$

$15P4 = 15*14*13*12$

$15C4 = 32760$

Hence, there are 32760 ways

find the area of triangle qpm. round the answer to the nearest tenth. a. 5.2 square units b. 6.3 square units c. 6.5 square unit

viva [34]

Pls. see attachment.

We need to solve for the angles of the smaller triangle in order to solve for the angle of the larger triangle which would help us solve the missing measurement of a side.

Given:

51 degrees.

Cut the triangle into two equal sides and it forms a right triangle. All interior angles of a triangle sums up to 180 degrees.

180 – 51 – 90 = 39 degrees

39 degrees * 2 = 78 degrees.

Angle Q is 78 degrees.

In the bigger triangle, 4.3 is the hypotenuse. We need to solve for the measurement of the long leg which is the opposite of the 78 degree angle.

We will use the formula:

Sine theta = opposite / hypotenuse

Sin(78 deg) = opposite / 4.3

Sin(78 deg) * 4.3 = opposite

4.21 = opposite. This is also the height of the triangle.

Area of a triangle = ½ * base * height

A = ½ * 3units * 4.21units

A = 6.315 square units.

The ratio of the longer side of a rectangle to its shorter side is 4 to 3. If the shorter side of the rectangle is 21ft, what is

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

28 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let longer side of rectangle be $L$ and the shorter side be $S$ , thus we can write the ratio:

$\frac{L}{S}=\frac{4}{3}$

Now putting 21 into S, we solve for L:

$\frac{L}{21}=\frac{4}{3}\\3L=4*21\\3L=84\\L=\frac{84}{3}=28$

Hence, length of longer side is 28 ft.

A random sample of 36 students at a community college showed an average age of 25 years. Assume the ages of all students at the

Pavel [41]

Answer:

98% confidence interval for the average age of all students is [24.302 , 25.698]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 36 students at a community college showed an average age of 25 years.

Also, assuming that the ages of all students at the college are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 1.8 years.

So, the pivotal quantity for 98% confidence interval for the average age is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample average age = 25 years

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 1.8 years

n = sample of students = 36

$\mu$ = population average age

So, 98% confidence interval for the average age, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.3263 < N(0,1) < 2.3263) = 0.98

P(-2.3263 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.3263) = 0.98

P( $-2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ ) = 0.98

P( $\bar X - 2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X +2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ ) = 0.98

98% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X - 2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ , $\bar X +2.3263 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$ ]

= [ $25 - 2.3263 \times {\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{36} }$ , $25 + 2.3263 \times {\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{36} }$ ]

= [24.302 , 25.698]

Therefore, 98% confidence interval for the average age of all students at this college is [24.302 , 25.698].
