A public library has an aquarium in the shape of a rectangular prism. The base is 6 feet by 2.5 feet. The height is 4 feet. How

many square feet of glass were used to build the aquarium? The top is open. The answer is 83, but I need the formula

6 * 2.5 = 15 That’s the area of the base

2.5 * 4 = 10
10 * 2 = 20
That’s the area of the 2 smaller sides

6 * 4 = 24
24 * 2 = 48
That’s the area of the 2 larger sides

Then you add all the dimensions together.

15+20+48 = 83.

So, the final equation is (6*2.5) + 2(2.5*4) + 2(6*4) = 83

Samira and Sonia each have a bag containing 20 sweets. In each bag, there are 5 red, 6 green and 9 yellow sweets.
Volgvan

Step-by-step explanation:

there must be some typos here. but I try to address the right issues.

there is nothing under (a). so, really nothing to answer.

(b)

there are 20 sweets in her bag. 9 if the 20 are yellow.

so, the probability is the ratio of desired possibilities vs. total possibilities.

that is, tada! 9/20

that is the probabilty for Samira to pick a yellow sweet.

[1] (i)

again, 20 sweets to start with.

6 are green.

when she picks the first one, her probability to pick a green one is 6/20 = 3/10 = 0.3

and now, under the assumption that this came true, she picks another sweet.

this time she had only 19 left, and 5 of them are green.

so, this probabilty is 5/19

now both events need to happen for the case we are discussing. there is no overlapping, no ors, ifs and buts. it is just the product of both probabilities.

3/10 × 5/19 = 15/190 = 3/38

I think that is what the description asks for.

(ii)

that probability is

first selection is red and second is not red +

first selection is green and second is not green +

first selection is yellow and second is not yellow

so,

red and not red

5/20 = 1/4 red

15/19 not red (there are still 15 sweets of other colors in the bag, but again now only 19 total).

red and not red = 1/4 × 15/19 = 15/76 = 0.1974

green and not green

6/20 = 3/10 = green

14/19 = not green

green and not green = 3/10 × 14/19 = 52/190 = 26/95 =

= 0.2737

yellow and not yellow

9/20 = yellow

11/19 = not yellow

yellow and not yellow = 9/20 × 11/19 = 99/380 = 0.2606

so, now assuming up all 3 possibilities ("or" = sum) gives us the general possibility of selecting two different colors

= 0.7316

Look at the figure. If m/_ L= 58, find /_ LKJ
kompoz [17]

Answer:

64°

Step-by-step explanation:

KJ = KL, KM is common, and ∠JKM = ∠LKM, so the triangles are congruent.

∴ ∠ J = ∠L = 58°

The three angles of a triangle add up to 180°.

 ∠J + ∠L + ∠LKJ = 180°

58° + 58° + ∠LKJ = 180°

        116° + ∠LKJ = 180°

                  ∠LKJ = 180° - 116°

                            =  64°

The fuel efficiency (in miles per gallon) of midsize minivans made by two auto companies is compared. Twenty test drivers are ra
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

4.7-2.100*3.114*\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=1.775  

4.7+2.100*3.114*\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=7.625  

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by 1.775 \leq \mu_A -\mu_B \leq 7.625  

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".  

\bar X_A=57.9 represent the sample mean A

\bar X_B =53.2 represent the sample mean B

n1=10 represent the sample A size  

n2=10 represent the sample B size  

s_1 =3.4 sample standard deviation for sample A

s_2 =2.8 sample standard deviation for sample B

\mu_1 -\mu_2 parameter of interest.

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the difference of means is given by the following formula:  

(\bar X_A -\bar X_B) \pm t_{\alpha/2} s_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_A}+\frac{1}{n_B}} (1)

Where s_p represent the standard deviation pooled given by:

s_p =\sqrt{\frac{(n_A -1)s^2_A +(n_B -1)s^2_B}{n_A +n_B -2}}

s_p =\sqrt{\frac{(10 -1)(3.4)^2 +(10-1)(2.8)^2}{10 +10 -2}}=3.114

The point of estimate for \mu_A -\mu_B is just given by:

\bar X_A -\bar X_B =57.9-53.2=4.7

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:  

df=n_A +n_B -2=10+10-2=18  

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of \alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,18)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=2.10  

Confidence interval

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):  

4.7-2.100*3.114*\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=1.775  

4.7+2.100*3.114*\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=7.625  

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by 1.775 \leq \mu_A -\mu_B \leq 7.625

A door frame is 7 feet high. In order to accommodate a larger door, the frame
Artemon [7]
First you need to get 3% of 7 so
7x0.03= 0.21
then you need to add that 3% onto 7
7+0.21=7.21
therefore the door frame is now 7.21 feet high
