the picture in the attached figure


we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.

so

P=size of the event space/size of the sample space

step 1

find the probability that the person is over 40 years

size of the sample size=255

size of the event space=85

P=85/255------> P=1/3


step 2

find the probability that they drink root beer

size of the sample size=255

size of the event space=75

P=75/255------> P=5/17


step 3

find the probability that the person is over 40 years of age or that they drink root beer

so

P=(1/3)+(5/17)-----> P=(17*1+3*5)/51------> P=32/51-----> 0.6275----> 62.75%


therefore


the answer is

32/51 or 62.75%

A collar of Styrofoam is made to insulate a pipe. Find it's volume. That large R is to the outer rim. The smaller r us to the ed
anastassius [24]

Answer:

the volume of the pipe is 649.98 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a collar of Styrofoam is made to insulate a pipe. We are asked to find the volume of the given pipe.

We will use volume of hollow cylinder formula to solve our given problem.

\text{Volume of hollow cylinder}=\pi R^2h-\pi r^2h

where,

R = Radius of external cylinder,

r = Radius of internal cylinder.

h = Height of cylinder.

substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

\text{Volume of hollow cylinder}=\pi (5\text{ in})^2(\text{23 in})-\pi (4\text{ in})^2(\text{23 in})\text{Volume of hollow cylinder}=\text{23 in}\cdot 3.14 ((5\text{ in})^2-(4\text{ in})^2)\text{Volume of hollow cylinder}=\text{23 in}\cdot 3.14 (25\text{ in}^2-16\text{ in}^2)\text{Volume of hollow cylinder}=\text{23 in}\cdot 3.14 (9\text{ in}^2)\text{Volume of hollow cylinder}=649.98\text{ in}^3

Therefore, the volume of the pipe is 649.98 cubic inches.
