This is a 2 part problem. First, we need to find the area of each side, then add them together. (the question isn't asking for volume).

1) The board has six sides(top, bottom, four sides). the top + bottom are 4 by 24 in, the short sides are 2 by 4 inches, and the long sides are 2 by 24 inches. After multiplying, this gives us 96 sq in + 96 sq in for the top and bottom, 8 sq in and 8 sq in for the short sides, and 48 sq in + 48 sq in for the long sides.

2) If we add all of these together, we get 96 + 96 + 8 + 8 + 48 + 48 = 192 + 16 + 96 = 304 sq inches, which is the total surface area.

Find the area of a circle with a diameter of \color{green}{4}4start color green, 4, end color green. Either enter an exact answe

Oxana [17]

Answer:

the area of the circle is 4π

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area of the circle is shown below:

As we know that

The area of the circle = πr^2

where

diameter = 4

So radius = diameter ÷ 2

= 4 ÷ 2

= 2

Now the area of the circle is

= π × 2^2

= 4π

hence, the area of the circle is 4π

In 2013, a study found that U.S. consumers consumed soft drinks with a mean of 42.2 gallons per year and variance of 169. Ninety

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Ninety-five percent of consumers in the U.S. consumed less than 63.59 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so $\sigma = \sqrt{169} = 13$
