Answer:
$803.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Dimension for the room
Length= 21 ft
Width= 17ft
Area= L*W
Area= 21*17
Area= 357 ft^2
Lucy will need to get 357ft^2 of carpet
We are given that a square ft cost $2.25
Hence to carpet the room the cost will be $2.25*357= $803.25
The question given is incomplete, I googled and got the complete question as below:
You are a waterman daily plying the waters of Chesapeake Bay for blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus), the best-tasting crustacean in the world. Crab populations and commercial catch rates are highly variable, but the fishery is under constant pressure from over-fishing, habitat destruction, and pollution. These days, you tend to pull crab pots containing an average of 2.4 crabs per pot. Given that you are economically challenged as most commercial fishermen are, and have an expensive boat to pay off, you’re always interested in projecting your income for the day. At the end of one day, you calculate that you’ll need 7 legal-sized crabs in your last pot in order to break even for the day. Use these data to address the following questions. Show your work.
a. What is the probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs?
b. What is the probability that your last pot will be empty?
Answer:
a. Probability = 0.0083
b. Probability = 0.0907
Step-by-step explanation:
This is Poisson distribution with parameter λ=2.4
a)
The probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs is calculated below:
P(X=7)= {e-2.4*2.47/7!} = 0.0083
b)
The probability that your last pot will be empty is calculated as:
P(X=0)= {e-2.4*2.40/0!} = 0.0907
Write a proportion first, change over original, like this:
8 x
16 100
(I got 8 because the difference between 24 and 16 is 8 and I got 100 because percents are out of 100.)
Cross multiply 8 by 100 and you get 800.
Divide 800 by 16 and you get 50.
It changed by 50%
Because if it was even, then it would be divisble by 2 which makes it not prime
