Convert the mixed number to inches. 3 feet 8 inches = 44 inches (12 inches per foot x 3 feet= 36 inches + 8 inches= 44 inches). 44 inches (length each section needs to be) x 4 (number of sections needed)=176 inches (total molding needed). To determine the amount of molding needed in feet, convert 176 inches into feet by dividing 176 inches by 12 inches. You get 14 2/3 feet, so the shortest board length is 15 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditions  required for testing  of a claim about a population proportion using a formal method of hypothesis​ testing are:

1) The sample observations are a simple random sample.

2) The conditions for a binomial distribution are satisfied

3) The conditions np5 and nq5 are both satisfied. i.e n: p≥ 5and q≥ 5

Which of the following quantities are inversely proportional? WILL GIVE BRAINIEST
Effectus [21]

Answer:

option 1

option 3

option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Inversely proportional means "one quality increases, the other decreases " or "one quantity decreases ,other increases. " Inverse relantionship, that's it.

option 1:

Since the volume is given as 56 and we know the volume is area of base * height, to keep the volume at constant [56], if height increases, area of base would need to decrease, and vice versa. So Inversely proportional.

option 2:

The time spend in plowing a field with a tractor with increase when we area using more fuel.So more fuel used means more time spent. So these are directly proportional, Not inverse.

option 3:

Since the price is a constant, the amount of length we buy more,the price per one yard HAS to decrease, and vice versa. So ,this is Inverse relantionship.

option 4:

If the number of identical tractors. increase, it will take less time to plow the set 358 acre farm. And vice versa. So this is Inversely proportional as well.
