Answer:

16 lb of fresh coffee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  x pound be the  amount of fresh coffee needed.

100 - 12 = 88%  is equivalent to 14 2/25  of roasted coffee.

By proportion  x = 14 2/25  /  88/100

= 352 / 25 * 100/88

= 35200 / 25 * 88

= 16 lb  (answer).

Whats the volume of the solid?
tatuchka [14]

The volume of the solid will be equal to V=64 Cubic inches.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

The space occupied by any solid object in the three-dimension is called as the volume.

Here we have 8 cubes in the solid object each cube has the side equal to 2 inches.

So the volume of one cube will be:

V=a³=2³=8 cubic inches

Since total number of the cubes are 8 so total volume will be:

V=8x8=64 cubic inches

hence the total volume will be equal to 64 cubic inches`

A rectangle has a length of (x + 4) centimeters and a width of 12x centimeters. If the perimeter is 26 centimeters, what is the
mars1129 [50]

Width of rectangle is 8.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of rectangle = x+4

Width of rectangle = 12x

Perimeter = 26 cm

We need to find width of rectangle.

The formula used is:

Perimeter=2(length+width)

Putting values and finding x first:

Perimeter=2(length+width)

26=2(x+4+12x)

26=2(13x+4)

26=26x+8

26-8=26x

26x=18

x=\frac{18}{26}

x=0.7

So, value of x is 0.7

Now width= 12x = 12(0.7)

=8.4 cm

So, width of rectangle is 8.4 cm.

Rabies is an often-fatal disease typically transmitted through the bite of an infected animal. The state of Florida has been rec
slega [8]

Answer:

a) 3.6

b) 1.897

c)0.0273

d) 0.9727

Step-by-step explanation:

Rabies has a rare occurrence and we can assume that events are independent. So, X the count of rabies cases reported in a given week is a Poisson random variable with μ=3.6.

a)

The mean of a Poisson random variable X is μ.

mean=E(X)=μ=3.6.

b)

The  standard deviation of a Poisson random variable X is √μ.

standard deviation=S.D(X)=√μ=√3.6=1.897.

c)

The probability for Poisson random variable X can be calculated as

P(X=x)=(e^-μ)(μ^x)/x!

where x=0,1,2,3,...

So,

P(no case of rabies)=P(X=0)=e^-3.6(3.6^0)/0!

P(no case of rabies)=P(X=0)=0.0273.

d)

P(at least one case of rabies)=P(X≥1)=1-P(X<1)=1-P(X=0)

P(at least one case of rabies)=1-0.0273=0.9727
