Answer:

a. 60 pieces

b. 25 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the area of each rectangular stained glass.

Area = width x length

5 x 3 = 15 square inches

Now we have to divide the area of the window by the area of each stained glass.

900/ 15 = 60 pieces

Same process for b

6x6 = 36 square inches

900/36= 25 pieces

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer:

a. 60

b. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the stained glass window has an area of 900 square inches and this is made of smaller rectangular stained glass pieces, the number of smaller rectangular stained glass pieces used will be equal to the total area (900 square inches) to the area of the smaller rectangular piece.

The area A of the rectangular piece of length l and width w may be stated as

A = l * w

Hence given that

- One window design is made of rectangular stained glass pieces that are 5 inches by 3 inches, number of stained glass pieces are used in the window

= 900/(3 * 5)

= 60

- Another window design is made of square stained glass pieces that are 6 inches by 6 inches, number of stained glass pieces are used in the window

= 900/(6 * 6)

= 25

Well.. $\bf {{ a}}\%\ of\ b \implies \cfrac{{{ a}}}{100}\cdot b\implies {{ a}}\div 100\cdot b\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
thus
\\\\\\
{{ 7.5}}\%\ of\ 10 \implies \cfrac{{{ 7.5}}}{100}\cdot 10\qquad and\qquad {{ 8}}\%\ of\ 10 \implies \cfrac{{{ 8}}}{100}\cdot 10$

get both, check their difference, that's how much more tax you'd be paying from 7.5% to 8% on $10

if the probability that the islanders will beat the rangers in a game is 0.44,what is the probability that the islanders will wi

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

30.91% probability that the islanders will win exactly one out of four games in a series against the rangers

Step-by-step explanation:

For each game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the Islanders win, or they do not. The probability of the Islanders winning a game is independent of other games. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
