25% decrease because if you multiply 20x.25 you get 5 and you minus the 5 from 20 books and you get 15 books

How to do you add probability
o-na [289]
To add the probabilities, you would have to treat them like any other numbers. If they are decimals or percents, you can follow basic addition rules. If you are given the probabilities as fractions, make sure that you have common denominators when you add them.

Ralph is painting the barn below, including the sides and roof.  He wants to know how much paint to purchase. 
grandymaker [24]
PART A

The barn is constructed by the following 2D shapes

Two triangles of height = 4' and base = 20'
Area = 2 × (0.5×4×20) = 80

Two rectangles of length = 20' and width = 15'
Area = 2 × 20 × 15 = 600

Two rectangles of length = 45' and width = 15'
Area = 2 × 45' × 15' = 1350

One base of length = 45' and width = 15'
Area = 45 × 15 = 675

Two rectangles on each on one side of the roof. We have the length = 45'  but not the width. We can work out the width by using Pythagoras theorem

w² = 4² + 10²
w² = 16 + 100
w² = 116
w = √116 = 10.77

Area of the two rectangles on the roof part is = 2 ×10.77 × 45 = 969.33

Total area to paint = 969.33+675+1350+600+80 = 3674.33 ≈ 3700 (to the nearest hundreth)


PART B

Numbers of paint cans needed = 3700 ÷ 57 = 64.9 ≈ 65 cans

PART C

Total cost of paint = 65 × 23.50 = $1527.50

PART D

The barn is constructed by a cuboid and a rectangular prism

V of cuboid = length × width × height
V of cuboid = 20 × 45 × 15
V of cuboid = 13500

V of triangular prism = Area of cross section × depth
V = [0.5×4×20] × 45
V = 1800

Total volume = 1800 + 13500 = 15300

How many cubes with side lengths of \dfrac14\text{ cm}
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct question

How many cubes with side lengths of ¼cm needed to fill the prism of volume 4 cubic units?

We know that,

Volume of a cube is s³

V = s³

Where 's' is length of side of a cube

Given that

The cube has a length of ¼cm, and a cube has equal length

s= ¼cm

Then, it's volume is

V = s³

V = (¼)³ = ¼ × ¼ × ¼

V = 1 / 64 cubic unit

V = 0.015625 cubic unit

Then, given that the volume of the prism to be filled is 4 cubic unit

Then,

As, we have to find the number if cubes so we will divide volume of prism by volume of one cube

Then,

n = Volume of prism / Volume of cube

n = 4 / 0.015625

n = 256

So, then required cubes to filled the prism is 256 cubes.

Which inequality can be used to explain why these three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle?
ryzh [129]

The answer choice which explains that the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle is; AC + CB < AB.

<h3>Which inequality explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle?</h3>

Since, It follows from the triangle inequalities theorem that sum of the side lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

Hence, since the sum of sides AC + CB is less than AB, it follows that the required inequality is; AC + CB < AB.
