Answer:

rectangular container

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangular prism area: A = 1/3 * base area * height

                                        = 1/3 * 12 * 19

                                        = 76 cm²

Rectangular prism: A = base area * height

                                   = 8 * 15

                                   = 120 cm²

The rectangular container has a better value because it has a bigger area and is cheaper.

Hope this helps!

In the exercise, X is a binomial variable with n = 5 and p = 0.2. Compute the given probability. Check your answer using technol
Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.0512

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that X isa Binomial variable. Hence we solve this question, using the formula for Binomial probability.

The formula for Binomial Probability = P(x) = (n!/(n - x) x!) × p^x × q ^n - x

In the above question,

x = 3

n = 5

p = probability for success = 0.2

q = probability for failures = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

P(x) = (n!/(n - x) x!) × p^x × q ^n - x

P(3) = (5!/(5 - 3) 3!) × 0.2^3 × 0.8^5-3

P(3) =( 5!/2! × 3!) × 0.2³ × 0.8²

P(3) = 10 × 0.008 × 0.64

P(3) = 0.0512

What is 6/10 plus 7/12? And please give me the estimate of the sum or difference. Thank you
sesenic [268]
6/10+7/12

=72/120+70/120

=142/120

=120/120+22/120

=1+22/120

=1+11/60

<em>*Good estimate would be 1+1/6 = 1.17</em>

What are the domain and range of the function f(x) = x^4-2x^2-4 ?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Think about what domain and range is. Domain is the x and range is the y.

Step-by-step explanation: What values of x can you put in this function? Is there any number you cannot use?? Then what y's will you get back? The best way to find out might be to graph it to look. Since it is an even function whose ends go up, all the y's will be greater than or equal to the y value of the vertex.
