"Increased by" means to multiply.

First, change the percentage to a number.

% ⇒ # : %/100

120(%) (120 ÷ 100) = 1.2

Now, you multiply.

5x × 1.2 = 6x

So, your answer is 6x.

Nadia plans to paint her jewelry box. The box is shaped like a rectangular prism with the dimensions

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

$132\ in^{2}$ is closest to the total surface area of the box

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the box is equal to

$SA=2B+PH$

where

B is the area of the base

P is the perimeter of the base

H is the height of the box

we have

$L=7\frac{3}{4}\ in=\frac{7*4+3}{4}=\frac{31}{4}\ in$

$W=3\frac{1}{4}\ in=\frac{3*4+1}{4}=\frac{13}{4}\ in$

$H=3\frac{7}{8}\ in=\frac{3*8+7}{8}=\frac{31}{8}\ in$

Find the area of the base B

$B=LW$

$B=(\frac{31}{4})(\frac{13}{4})=\frac{403}{16}\ in^{2}$

Find the perimeter of the base P

$P=2(L+W)$

$P=2(\frac{31}{4}+\frac{13}{4}))$

$P=2(\frac{44}{4})=22\ in$

Find the surface area

$SA=2(\frac{403}{16})+22(\frac{31}{8})$

$SA=(\frac{403}{8})+(\frac{682}{8})$

$SA=\frac{1,085}{8}=135.625\ in^{2}$

An Article a Florida newspaper reported on the topics that teenagers most want to discuss with their parents. The findings, the

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The estimate is $P__{hat}} \pm E = 0.37 \pm 0.0348$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 522

The sample proportion of students would like to talk about school is $\r p__{hat}} = 0.37$

Given that the confidence level is 90 % then the level of significance can be mathematically evaluated as

$\alpha = 100 - 90$

$\alpha = 10\%$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ from the normal distribution table, the value is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.10}{2} } = 1.645$

Generally the margin of error can be mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\r P_{hat}(1- \r P_{hat} )}{n } }$

=> $E = 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{0.37 (1- 0.37 )}{522 } }$

=> $E = 0.0348$

Generally the estimate the proportion of all teenagers who want more family discussions about school at 90% confidence level is

$P__{hat}} \pm E$

substituting values

$0.37 \pm 0.0348$

One of the rows in the table has an error and does not have the same ratio as the other rows. Which explains how to correct the

hram777 [196]

Row 1 3 ft 91.44 cm
The ratio is 91.44 cm/ 3 ft = 30.48 cm/ft

Row 2 6 ft 172.88 cm
The ratio is 172.88 cm / 6 ft = 28.81 cm/ft which ius not the same as 30.48 cm/ft.

Row 3 7 ft 213.36 cm

The ratio is 213.36 cm/ 7 ft = 30.48 cm/ft, which is the same as the first ratio.

Since 2 rows have the ratio 30.48 cm/ft, this ratio is correct. The ratio 172.88 cm / 6 ft is incorrect.

6 ft * 30.48 cm/ft = 182.88 cm

Answer: 
B.Row 2 should show 6 feet is equivalent to 182.88 centimeters.
