Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is a multiplication problem. So f we start with 8 ropes, and we need to cut each one to 1/3, then we will cut each one three times, so, this means that we will have 24 pieces of rope.

Hey there!

If you have eight pieces of rope and cut them each into three pieces, you basically have 8 times three, which is 24!

When you divide by a fraction, you multiply it by the reciprocal!

8/ 1/3 = 8*3=24

I hope this helps!

If the seed company recommends planting approximately 350 grass seeds per square meter, about how many grass seeds will he need?

Svetach [21]

Answer:

83422.5 grass seeds

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

A = 1/2bh....................... Equation 1

Where A = Area of the Triangle, b = base, h = height.

But, from the diagram,

tanФ = 20/b

b = 20/tanФ.................. Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

A = 1/2(20/tanФ)(h)................ Equation 3

Given: h = 20 m, Ф = 40°

Substitute these values into equation 3

A = 1/2(20×20)/tan40°

A = 200/tan40°

A = 238.35 m²

If the seed company recommends planting approximately 350 grass seeds per square meter,

Therefore,

Number of grass seed need = (350×238.35)

Number of grass seed needed = 83422.5 grass seeds

ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIST !!!! What is the slope of this table?

VLD [36.1K]

Answer: Slope is m = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-You have exactly four points on a table:

$(3,2) (6,4) (9,6) (12,8)$

-Use the slope formula and use any two points from those four points in order to find the slope:

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

-The two points I use are $(3, 2)$ and $(6,4 )$ for the equation:

$m = \frac{4 - 2}{6-3}$

$m= \frac{2}{3}$

So, the slope of the table is $\frac{2}{3}$ .

A survey of 85 families showed that 36 owned at least one DVD player. Find the 99% confidence interval estimate of the true prop

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

$0.424 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.286$

$0.424 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.562$

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given:

$X= 36$ represent the families owned at least one DVD player

$n= 85$ represent the total number of families

$\hat p=\frac{36}{85}= 0.424$ represent the estimated proportion of families owned at least one DVD player

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:
