Increase 220 by 15% please

1 answer:

6 0

Lets do this step by step.

1st.) what is 15% as a decimal
15% = 0.15

2nd.) multiply
220 x 0.15 = 33

3rd) we add that 33 and 220 since this its asking for the increase
220 + 33 = 253

Answer = 253

A pyramid has a square base of length 8cm and a total surface area of 144cm². Find the volume of the pyramid. (Please use Pythag

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

$\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}= 64 \: {cm}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given surface area and the length of the square base

we want to figure out the Volume

to do so

we need to figure out slant length first

recall the formula of surface area

$\displaystyle A_{\text{surface}}=B+\dfrac{1}{2}\times P \times s$

where B stands for Base area

and P for Base Parimeter

$\sf\displaystyle \: 144=(8 \times 8)+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (8 \times 4) \times s$

now we need our algebraic skills to figure out s

simplify parentheses:

$\sf\displaystyle \: 64+\dfrac{1}{2}\times32\times s = 144$

reduce fraction:

$\sf\displaystyle \: 64+\dfrac{1}{ \cancel{ \: 2}}\times \cancel{32} \: ^{16} \times s = 144 \\ 64 + 16 \times s = 144$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle \: 16s + 64 = 144$

cancel 64 from both sides;

$\displaystyle \: 16s = 80$

divide both sides by 16:

$\displaystyle \: \therefore \: s = 5$

now we'll use Pythagoras theorem to figure out height

according to the theorem

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (\frac{l}{2} {)}^{2} = {s}^{2}$

substitute the value of l and s:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (\frac{8}{2} {)}^{2} = {5}^{2}$

simplify parentheses:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (4 {)}^{2} = {5}^{2}$

simplify squares:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + 16 = 25$

cancel 16 from both sides:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} = 9$

square root both sides:

$\displaystyle \: \therefore \: {h}^{} = 3$

recall the formula of a square pyramid

$\displaystyle V_{pyramid}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times A\times h$

where A stands for Base area (l²)

substitute the value of h and l:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \{8 \times 8 \}\times 3$

simplify multiplication:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 64\times 3$

reduce fraction:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{ \cancel{ 3 \: }}\times 64\times \cancel{ \: 3}$

hence,

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}= 64 \: {cm}^{3}$

It is generally believed that the mean value of the district's total SAT score distribution is equal to 1200 (the null hypothesi

g100num [7]

Answer:

The corresponding p-value, is p = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum score SAT score, n = 1,600

The mean of the district's total SAT score distribution = 1,200

The claim of one of the districts principal, is the that mean of the district's total SAT score distribution ≠ 1,200

Using proportions, we have;

p = 1,200/1,600 = 0.75

q = 1 - p = 0.25

The margin of error, E = Z√(p·q/n)

∴ E = 5% = Z×√((0.75 × 0.25)/1,600)

z = 0.05/(√((0.75 × 0.25)/1,600)) ≈ 4.61880

Therefore, the corresponding p-value, p = 1
