3 0

(a) The volume of the soil required is 48 ft³

(b) Trevor has 36 ft³ of soil

<u>Explanation:</u>

The trevor is made up of 2 cuboids

Dimensions of cuboid 1 = 6 ft , 3 ft and 2 ft

Dimensions of cuboid 2 = 2ft, 3 ft, 2 ft

(a)

Volume of cuboid 1 = 6 X 3 X 2 ft³

= 36 ft³

Volume of cuboid 2 = 2 X 3 X 2 ft³

= 12 ft³

Total volume = 36 + 12 ft³

= 48 ft³

Therefore, the volume of the soil required is 48 ft³

(b)

If Trevor just have soil that could fill box 1, then the volume of soil is 36 ft³

Kenya exchanges $200 for euros (€). Suppose the conversion rate is €1 = $1.321. How many euros should Kenya receive?

olga2289 [7]

<span>Kenya exchanges $200 for euros (€).
Suppose the conversion rate is €1 = $1.321.

We are looking for how many euros.
1 : 1.321 = x : 200
1.321 x = 200
x = 151.40 Euros.

So, Kenya should receive 151.40 Euros.

Find an ordered pair x-2y=4

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Step by Step:
x-2y=4
+2y +2y
x=-2y+4

x-2y=4
-4 -4
x-2y-4=0
+2y +2y
x-4=2y
Divid by 2
1/2x-2= y

x=-2y+4
x=-2(1/2x-2)+4
x=-x+4+4
x=-x+8
+x +x
2x= 8
x=4

y=1/2x-2
y=1/2(4)-2
y=2-2
y=0

A genetics experiment involves a population of fruit flies consisting of 1 male named Bart and 3 females named Charlene, Diana,

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

(b) $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1 male named Bart (b)

3 females named Charlene(c), Diana(d), and Erin(e).

Since there is replacement, the possible samples are:

bb, bc, be, bd, cb, cc, cd, ce, db, dc, dd, de, eb, ec, ed, and ee.

Total Number of pairs = 16

Event of picking 2 males:bb

Event of 1 male:bc,cb,bd,db,be,eb

Event of picking 0 males:

cc, cd, ce, dc, dd, de, ec, ed, and ee.

$\begin{equation*} \begin{matrix}Proportion of males & Probability \\0 & 9/16 \\1 & 6/16 \\2 & 1/16 \end{matrix} \end{equation*}$

b. The mean of the sampling distribution

$\mu = (\frac{9}{16} X0 ) +(\frac{6}{16} X 1)+(\frac{1}{16} X 2) = \frac{8}{16} = \frac{1}{2}$

c. No; the proportion of males is $\frac{1}{4}$ while the mean is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

B. No, the sample mean is not equal to the population proportion of males. These values are not always equal, because proportion is an unbiased estimator.
