Answer:
4 gallons of paint
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve using the formula for surface area of rectangular prism.
A=2(wl+hl+hw)
Where:
w = Width
h = Height
l = Length
The pool is 4 feet deep, 18 feet long, and 12 feet wide.
Hence,
=2 × (12 × 18 + 4 × 18 + 4 ×12)
=672 square feet
One gallon of paint covers 155 square feet.
Hence,
155 square feet = 1 gallon of paint
672 square feet = x
Cross Multiply
155 square feet × x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint
x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint/ 155 square feet
x = 4.335483871 gallons of paint
Therefore, based on the calculation above, approximately to the nearest whole number, Sierra uses 4 gallons of paint
Answer:
atleast 385
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that an electrical power company is looking to expand into a new market. Before they commit to supplying the new area with electricity, they would like know the mean daily power usage for homes there.
Population std deviation = 
Sample size =
STd error of sample mean = 
Margin of error for 95% would be Critical value ( std error)
Here since population std dev is known we can use Z critical value= 1.96
Sample size should be atleast 385
Answer:
360 people
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 0.8x + 72 Subtract 0.8x on both sides
0.2x = 72 Divide 0.2 on both sides
x = 360
Answer:
x = 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
(5 x)/2 = 25/4
Hint: | Multiply both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.
Multiply both sides of (5 x)/2 = 25/4 by 2/5:
(2×5 x)/(5×2) = 2/5×25/4
Hint: | Express 2/5×5/2 as a single fraction.
2/5×5/2 = (2×5)/(5×2):
(2×5)/(5×2) x = 2/5×25/4
Hint: | Express 2/5×25/4 as a single fraction.
2/5×25/4 = (2×25)/(5×4):
(2×5 x)/(5×2) = (2×25)/(5×4)
Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (2×5 x)/(5×2).
(2×5 x)/(5×2) = (5×2)/(5×2)×x = x:
x = (2×25)/(5×4)
Hint: | In (2×25)/(5×4), divide 25 in the numerator by 5 in the denominator.
25/5 = (5×5)/5 = 5:
x = (2×5)/4
Hint: | In (2×5)/4, divide 4 in the denominator by 2 in the numerator.
2/4 = 2/(2×2) = 1/2:
Answer: x = 5/2
Let x = the number of hours Eva needs to complete the job
and y = the number of hours Emily needs to complete the job
x = 6
1/x + 1/y = 1/4
(The amount of work Eva does in 1 hr + the amount of work Emily does in 1 hr should equal 1/4 of the total work)
1/6 + 1/y = 1/4
1/y = 1/12
y = 12 hours
Emily would take 12 hours to do it by herself.
