A chalkboard has a perimeter of 18 ft and is 6 ft long. Find the height of the chalkboard

The height of the chalkboard is 3ft. Since the chalkboard has a perimeter of 18ft, that means that the 2 lengths of the board are 6 ft or 12 ft added together. Afterwards, subtract 12 from 18 ft ( 18 - 12), which shall get you 6ft. Then, divide 6 by 2, since there are two sides that represent the height.

Therefore, the height is 3 ft.

P = 2H + 2L
L = 6
P = 18
18 = 2H + 2*6
18 = 2H + 12
6 = 2H
H = 3 ft

If 3% of ties sold in the United States are bow ties, what is the probability of randomly selecting three ties that were purchas

Luda [366]

Given that 3 ties were selected and the probability of selecting a bow tie is 3%, the probability of selecting 3 bow ties will be:
P(selecting 3 ties)=P(selecting a bow tie)*P(selecting a bow tie)*P(selecting a bow tie)
=(0.03)*(0.03)*(0.03)
=0.000027

A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among people over age 23. A sample of 164 people over a

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 23 is between 4 and 4.2 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.8}{2} = 0.1$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.1 = 0.9$ , so $z = 1.28$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 1.28*\frac{0.7}{\sqrt{164}} = 0.07$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 4.1 - 0.07 = 4.03 pounds

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 4.1 + 0.07 = 4.17 pounds

Rounded to one decimal place

The 80% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 23 is between 4 and 4.2 pounds.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Complete question :

Vanessa and Zack are playing a game where the player with the lower score wins. At the end of the game, Vanessa has a score of -3 5/8 and Zack has a score of -3 2/3. Which statement explains who won?

Vanessa won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.625 < -3.666.

Vanessa won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625.

Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.625 < -3.666.

Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Answer: Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Player with the lowest score wins ;

Vanessa's score = - 3 5/8

Zack's score = - 3 2/3

Converting to decimal:

Vanessa :

-3 5/8 = - 29 /8 = - 3.625

Zack:

-3 2/3 = - 11/3 = - 3.666

Comparing the scores :

From the negaryce side of a number line :

-3.666 comes before - 3.625, hence, - 3.666 is lower or lesser than - 3.625

-3.666 < - 3.625, hence Zack won

What number will the function return if the input is 15.4?

wlad13 [49]

The rule of the function is to multiply the input by 3, since one yard is equal in length to three feet.

So, if the input is 15.4, the output will be

$f(x)=3x \implies f(15.4)=3\cdot 15.4 = 46.2$
