Th e NCAA recommends that a competition diving pool intended for use with two 1-m springboards and two 3-m springboards, in addi

tion to diving platforms set at 5 m, 7.5 m, and 10 m above the water, have a width of 75 ft 1 in., a length of 60 ft, and a minimum water depth of 14 ft 10 in. What is the minimum volume of water such a pool would hold in cubic yards, to the nearest whole number?

Answer:

The volume of the swimming pool is approximately 2475 yd³ to the nearest whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The width of the swimming pool = 75 ft. 1 in.

The length of swimming pool = 60 ft.

The depth of the swimming pool = 14 ft. 10 in.

Therefore;

The volume of the swimming pool = Width × Length × Depth

The volume of the swimming pool = 75 ft. 1 in. × 60 ft. × 14 ft. 10 in.

The volume of the swimming pool = 901 in. × 720 in. × 178 in. = 115472160 in.³

1 in.³ = 2.14335 × 10⁻⁵ yd³

∴ 115472160 in.³ = 115472160 in.³ × 2.14335 × 10⁻⁵ yd³/in³ ≈ 2474.969 yd³

Which gives;

The volume of the swimming pool ≈ 2475 yd³ to the nearest whole number.

An apartment complex rents an average of 2.3 new units per week. If the number of apartment rented each week Poisson distributed

masya89 [10]

Answer:

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Poisson Distribution;

Average rent in a week = 2.3

Required

Determine the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment

A Poisson distribution is given as;

$P(X = x) = \frac{y^xe^{-y}}{x!}$

Where y represents λ (average)

y = 2.3

<em>Probability of renting no more than 1 apartment = Probability of renting no apartment + Probability of renting 1 apartment</em>

<em />

Using probability notations;

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

Solving for P(X = 0) [substitute 0 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 0) = \frac{2.3^0 * e^{-2.3}}{0!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{1 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 0) = e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 0) = 0.10025884372$

Solving for P(X = 1) [substitute 1 for x and 2.3 for y]

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3^1 * e^{-2.3}}{1!}$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3 * e^{-2.3}}{1}$

$P(X = 1) =2.3 * e^{-2.3}$

$P(X = 1) = 2.3 * 0.10025884372$

$P(X = 1) = 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.10025884372 + 0.23059534055$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.33085418427$

$P(X\leq 1) = 0.331$

Hence, the required probability is 0.331

Answer:

Switch to the other streaming service

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 96$ with a 12% increase is $107.52.

But if you do 8.75×12 you get $105.

So Clare should switch to the other music stream.
