5/4 gallons of water fill 5/6 of a bucket how many gallons of water fill the entire bucket

Mathematics

Answer:

\frac{3}{2} gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If \frac{5}{4} gallons fill \frac{5}{6} of a bucket.

Then we can write the ratio;

\frac{5}{4}:\frac{5}{6}


Let x gallons fill the entire bucket which is equivalent to 1.

Then we can again write the ratio;

x:1


We can write the following equation of proportion to solve for x.

\frac{5}{4}:\frac{5}{6}=x:1


This implies that;

\frac{\frac{5}{4} }{\frac{5}{6} }=\frac{x}{1}

We simplify to get;

\frac{5}{4}\times \frac{6}{5} }=x


x=\frac{6}{4} =\frac{3}{2}


Therefore \frac{3}{2} gallons will fill the entire bucket

A national survey of companies included a question that asked whether the company had at least one bilingual telephone operator.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The first option is correct. Option A is correct.

LCL = 0.270, and UCL = 0.397

80% Confidence interval = (0.270, 0.397)

Step-by-step explanation:

The data for Y and N for the 90 companies is attached to this solution provided.

Y represents companies with at least 1 bilingual operator and N represents companies with no bilingual operator.

The number of Y in the data = 30

Hence, sample proportion of companies with at least one bilingual operator = (30/90) = 0.3333

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion = 0.3333

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 80% confidence level for sample size of 90 is obtained from the z-tables.

Critical value = 1.280

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]

p = sample proportion

n = sample size = 90

σₓ = √[0.3333×0.6667)/90] = 0.0496891568 = 0.04969

80% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.3333 ± (1.28 × 0.04969)

CI = 0.3333 ± 0.0636021207

80% CI = (0.2696978793, 0.3969021207)

80% Confidence interval = (0.270, 0.397)

Hope this Helps!!!

The dimensions of a triangular prism are shown below what is the volume of the prism in cubic feet
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

B. 192.5 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a triangle prism, multiply the base, height, and length together, and then divide it by 2 (or multiply that by 0.5).

(5 * 7 * 11)/2

Multiply 5 by 7 to get 35.

(35 * 11)/2

Multiply 35 by 11 to get 385.

385/2

192.5 ft³ is the volume of this triangluar prism.
