Answer:

2\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information

  • 4 containers of 4 different colors
  • 1/3 of each color left over
  • She had planted more than 2 1/2 of the original 4 containers

=> Total color were left = 1/3 x 4 = 4/3 of the original containers

=> Total color  were planted = (1 - 1/3) x 4 = 2/3 x 4 = 8/3 of the original containers

However,  8/3 = 2\frac{2}{3}  > 2\frac{1}{2}  

So she is true, hence, the fractions to determine the total amount of containers of flowers she planted is:  2\frac{2}{3}

Hope it will find you well

Use the 95% rule and the fact that the summary statistics come from a distribution that is symmetric and bell-shaped to find an
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Intervals = (1,064) , (1,036)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Use 95% method

Mean = 1,050

Standard deviation = 7

Find:

Intervals.

Computation:

95% method.

⇒ Intervals = Mean ± 2(Standard deviation)

⇒ Intervals = 1,050 ± 2(7)

⇒Intervals = 1,050 ± 14

⇒ Intervals = (1,050 + 14) , (1,050 - 14)

⇒ Intervals = (1,064) , (1,036)

In a class of 30 students, 6 have a brother and 12 have a sister. There are 14 students
Elena-2011 [213]
30 students

14 have no siblings

that leaves 16 with siblings

6 have brothers and 12 have sisters which = 18 so 2 of the students have both a brother and a sister

2/30 students have a brother and a sister

Otto invests $1,000 at age 20. Otto wants theinvestment to be worth $4,000 by age 30. Ifinterest is compounded continuously, wha
AveGali [126]
r\approx0.139

1) Since this is a Continuously Compounded operation in a 10 yrs period, then we can write out the following equation:

\begin{gathered} A=Pe^{rt} \\  \end{gathered}

2) Plugging into the equation the given data and since Otto is 20 yrs old and he plans to get $4,000 in ten years, we can write out:

\begin{gathered} 4000=1000e^{\mleft\{10r\mright\}} \\ \frac{4000}{1000}=\frac{1000e^{10r}}{1000} \\ 4=e^{10r} \\ \ln (4)=\ln (e)^{10r} \\ 10r=\ln (4) \\ r=\frac{\ln (4)}{10} \\ r=0.1386 \end{gathered}

3) Thus the rate Otto needs is

r=0.1386\approx0.139

Note that since the 0.1386 the six here is greater than 5 then we can round up to the next thousandth, in this case: 0.139. For the 0.1386 is closer to 0.139 (0.004) than to 0.138 (0.006).

Or 13.9%

A toy box contains eight green balls and four purple balls. Suppose you choose a ball at random and then replace it by putting i
dedylja [7]

Answer: C.  \dfrac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Box contains 8 green balls and 4 purple balls.

Total balls = 8+4 = 12

event 1 = first picking green ball

event 2 = second picking purple balls.

As first ball was replaced, that means both events are independent.

Probability that you have selected a green ball and then a purple ball = P(purple ball )

Formula for probability = \dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{total outcomes}}

Probability of selecting a purple ball (second pick)= \dfrac{4}{12}

=\dfrac{1}{3}

The required probability =\dfrac{1}{3}, so C is correct option.
