Answer: The carpenter will need 84 square inches of wood.

In this problem we are looking for the surface area of the jewelry box. This box has 5 faces. The two triangles at each end and the 3 rectangle pieces between them.

The sides of the triangles are 3, 4, 5 which always forms a right triangle with legs of 3 and 4. Use the formula for the area of a triangle, we have 3 x 4 / 2 = 6. The area of each triangle is 6 square inches.

Now, the three sides, each one has a height of 6.
3 x 6 = 18
4 x 6 = 24
5 x 6 = 30

If we add all the sides together, we get an area of 84 square inches.
6 + 6 + 18 + 24 + 30 = 84

Type the correct answer in the box. Round your answer to the thousandth place.
kupik [55]

Answer:

<u>The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is 19.338% (Rounding to the next thousandth place)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Probability that carbon emissions from the company’s factory exceed the permissible level = 35% = 0.35

Accuracy of the test of emissions level = 85% = 0.85

2. The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is?

These two events, carbon emissions from the company’s factory and the accuracy of the test are independent events, therefore:

Probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level = 1 - 0.35 = 0.65

Probability that the test predicts the opposite to be true = 0..35 * 0.85 = 0.2975 (The opposite is that the carbon emissions from the company exceed the permissible level)

Probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is:

0.65 * 0.2975 = 0.193375

<u>The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is 19.338% (Rounding to the next thousandth place)</u>
