Answer:

B) 1153000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Required

Number of households without computer in 2009

From the attachment, we have:

$n=5170000$ --- survey

$p = 22.3\%$ --- proportion without computer

So, the actual number is:

$Number = p * n$

$Number = 22.3\% * 5170000$

$Number = 1152910$

$Number \approx 1153000$

<em>Hence: (B) is correct</em>

Please help :( Calculate each mountain path grade to the nearest percent.

wariber [46]

The grade of the path in the mountain is calculated by determining first the ratio between the rise over the run and multiplying the ratio by 100%.

For Path A:

grade = (rise / run) x 100%
grade = (1414/ 3535) x 100% = 40%

<em>Answer: 40%</em>

For Path B:
grade = (rise / run) x 100%
grade = (4.26 m/ 22 m) x 100% = 19.36%

Answer: 19.36%

TotCo is developing a new deluxe baby bassinet. If the length of a newborn baby is normally distributed with a mean of 50 cm and

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

91.63 cm is the interior length of the bassinet to ensure that 99 percent of newborn babies will fit, with a safety margin of 15 cm on each end of the bassinet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 50 cm

Standard Deviation, σ = 5 cm

We are given that the distribution of length of a newborn baby is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(X<x) = 0.99

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.99

P(X < x)

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 50}{5})=0.99$

Calculation the value from standard normal table, we have,

$P(z$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 50}{5} = 2.326\\x = 61.63$

Thus, 99% of newborn babies will have a length of 61.63 cm or less.

There is a safety margin of 15 cm on each end of the bassinet

Length of bassinet =

$61+63 + 15 +15 = 91.63\text{ cm}$

The perimeter of a rectangle is 24. If the length is 5 times the width, what is the area?

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: Area is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is 24

Let the length be x

Let the breadth be Y

Length is 5times the breadth

I.e

X=5y

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is

2(length + breadth)

= 2(x+y)

Substitute for x=5y

2(5y+y)=24

2(6y)=24

6y=24/2

6y=12

Y=12/6

Y=2

Breadth = 2

Since length =5y

Length=5(2)

Length = 10

Area of a rectangle = length × breadth

Area= 10×2

Area = 20

Area of the rectangle is 20
