Answer:

184 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Width, w = 6 inches

Length, l = 10 inches

Height, h = 2 inches

To obtain how much wrapping paper is needed ; we take the surface area of the box

Surface area = 2(lw + lh + wh)

Surface area = 2((6*10) + (6*2) + (10*2))

Surface area = 2(60 + 12 + 20)

Surface area = 2(92)

Surface area = 184 in²

The amount of wrapping paper needed = 184 in²

Find the probability for choosing a letter at random from the word: Probability P(not P) A.) 1/11 B.) 2/11 C.) 5/11 D.) 10/11

elixir [45]

Answer:

D.) 10/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given word Probability has 11 letters in it. And we have to calculate the Probability of not selecting a letter P from the above word.

So the formula for calculating any probability is Total Favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes.

Here total number of outcomes are 11 as word Probability has 11 letters.

So the probability of selecting letter P from word Probability = $\frac{1}{11}$

Now the P(not P) = 1 - P(selecting letter P)

= 1 - $\frac{1}{11}$ = $\frac{10}{11}$

Lilly should re-estimate the original numbers to be smaller.
for example if she rounded to 10 and 20, she should go back and check and re-round to maybe 8 and 10
