An architect designs a castle tower for a new attraction at a popular amusement park. Blueprints of the tower, which is in the s

hape of a rectangular prism, show that it is 47 cm tall, 23 cm in length, and 25 cm in width. The blueprints have a scale factor of 1:96. Calculate the actual surface area of the tower and enter your answer in square meters with two decimal places, formatted like this: 42.53 m^2

Answer:

<u>The surface area of the tower is 5,218.1 m²</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Height of the blueprint = 47 cm

Length of the blueprint = 23 cm

Width of the blueprint = 25 cm

Scale factor 1 : 96

2. Calculate the actual surface area of the tower and enter your answer in square meters with two decimal places.

Let's calculate the measurements of the actual tower:

Height of the blueprint = 47 * 96 = 4,512 cm = 45.12 m

Length of the blueprint = 23 * 96 = 2,208 cm = 22.08 m

Width of the blueprint = 25 * 96 = 2,400 cm = 24 m

Now, let's calculate the surface area of the tower, this way:

Surface area of the tower = 2* (24 * 22.08) + 2 * (45.12 * 22.08) + 2 * (45.12 * 24)

Surface area of the tower = 1,059.84 + 1,992.5 + 2,165.76

<u>Surface area of the tower = 5,218.1 m²</u>

Bob believes his test grade varies directly with the number of hours he spends studying and inversely with the number of hours h

Readme [11.4K]

Answer: Hello mate!

A direct variation implies that, if y is the dependent variable that varies with the variable x; then: y = k*x where k is a real number.

An inverse variation has the form y = k/x where also k is a real number.

them, if we define s as the hours that Bob spends studying, and b as the hours that he spends playing baseball, then the equation that represents the score is:

Score(s,b) = k*s/b

we know that if s = 6, and b = 7, then the score is 72; with this information, we could obtain the value of the constant k.

score(6,7) = 72 =k*6/7 = k*

then k = 72*(7/6) = 61.7

now if s = 4 and b = 6, the score that he should expect is:

score( 4, 6) = 61.7*(4/6) = 41

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

And the confidence interval is given by:

(0.123, 0.177)

And for this case the interval contains the value 0.16, so then we can conclude at 5% of significance that the true proportion is not different from 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$

And the confidence interval is given by:

(0.123, 0.177)

And for this case the interval contains the value 0.16, so then we can conclude at 5% of significance that the true proportion is not different from 0.16
