The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Mr. Jackson decides to build a planter in the shape of a cube fo rhis wife. The top of the planter will be open so his wife can plant and water her flowers. The perimeter of the bottom of the planter is 12 feet.

How many square feet of material does Mr Jackson need to build the planter?

(a) 27 square feet

(b) 45 square feet

(c) 60 square feet

(d) 720 square feet

Answer: 45 square feet

Step-by-step explanation: A <u>cube</u> is a regular solid with six square faces.

<u>Square</u> is a quadrilateral with 4 right angles and 4 equal sides. So a cube is solid formed by 6 squares.

<u>Perimeter</u> is the sum of all the sides. For a square, perimeter is given by

P = 4s

Then, side of the bottom is

s=\frac{P}{4}

s=\frac{12}{4}

s = 3

Area of a square is

A=s^{2}

A=3^{2}

A = 9

The planter is a cube with 5 faces, because the top is open. Then, total area is

A_{t}=9+9+9+9+9

A_{t}= 45

Mr Jackson will need 45 square feet of material to build the planter.

Four dice, each numbered in the usual way from 1 to 6, are colored white, red, green and blue respectively. After casting them a
Delvig [45]
Suppose that the numbers that the boy being cast from the dice are 3 4 5 6.
 3 stands for white, 4 stands for red, 5 stands for green and 6 stands for blue.
  We need to interpret the statement given above.   The set of numbers is 3 4 4 6 6 5.
First, we need to get the mean of this set. Add all the numbers and divide by the total number that the set has. 
 3+4+4+6+6+5=  28 / 6
                        = 4.67    The mean is 4.67
For the variance, we will use the mean above ( 4.67 )

1. Squared the mean and subtract how many numbers are present in the set. 
   4.67x4.67= 21.8089 /6 = 3.64 set aside this result
2. Next squared all the numbers present in the set and add the result 

  3x3= 9 , 4x4= 16, 4x4=16, 6x6=36, 6x6=36, 5x5=25

9+16+16+36+36+25= 138 

3. Subtract the result of #2 with #1
          138 - 3.64=  134.36 set this aside

4. Subtract 1 from the total numbers you have in your set

 6 - 1= 5 

5. Divide the result we have in #3 with the result of #4

  134.36 / 5= 26. 872

So the variance is 26.872
