This sequence keeps dividing by 2. So, you would divide 3 by 2 and you would get 1.5.
Answer:
a) 279 b)254
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = 269 days
standard deviation = 8 days
let n be the pregnancy lenght.
using normal distribution formula
z = (n – mean)/ standard deviation
n = z * standard deviation + mean
Now, z values for the top 12% has to be found using a z table.
The top 12% means 88% of area under the curve. In this case z = 1,176
n = 1,176 * 8 + 269
n = 278.4 = 279
The bottom 3% means 97% of area under the curve. In this case z = -1,882
n = -1,882 * 8 + 269
n = 253.94 = 254
Answer:
Water needed for pool = 486 cubic feet
Plastic liner required for the pool = 298.3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Top view of the pool is a composite figure, having one rectangle and a trapezoid.
1). Water needed for the pool = volume of the pool
Volume of the pool = Area of the base × Depth
= (Area of the rectangle + Area of the trapezoid)× depth
Area of the trapezoid = 
= 
= 105 ft²
Area of the rectangle = Length × width
= 11 × 1.5
= 16.5 ft²
Now, volume of the pool = (105 + 16.5) × 4
= 121.5 × 4
= 486 cubic feet
b). Liner required = surface area of the pool excluding top
= Surface area of the walls + Area of the pool base
= (Perimeter of the pool) × depth + area of the base
= (12 + 11 + 1.5 + 10.7 + 9)×4 + 121.5
= 176.8 + 121.5
= 298.3 square feet
Therefore, amount of water required = 486 cubic feet
liner needed = 298.3 square feet
