Answer:

Width: <u>13</u> inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the width of prism you would have to divide the volume of the prism by the area of the cross section.

First calculate the area of the cross section of the prism:

17 × 25.5= 433.5

Then divide the cross section area by the volume:

5635.5 ÷ 433.5= 13  

The width is <u>13 inches</u>

math problem Just before a referendum on a school budget, a local newspaper polls 400 voters in an attempt to predict whether th
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The conditions necessary for the analysis are met.

The probability the newspaper’s sample will lead them to predict defeat is 0.7881

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

population proportion; μ = 52% = 0.52

Sample size;n = 400

The conditions are;

10% conditon: sample size is less than 10% of the population size

Success or failure condition; np = 400 x 0.52 = 208 and n(1 - p) = 400(1 - 0.52) = 192.

Both values are greater than 10

Randomization condition; we assume that the voters were randomly selected.

So the conditions are met.

Now, the standard deviation is gotten from;

σ = √((p(1 - p)/n)

where;

p is the population proportion

n is the sample size

σ is standard deviation

Thus;

σ = √((0.52(1 - 0.52)/400)

σ = √((0.52(0.48)/400)

σ = 0.025

Now to find the z-value, we'll use;

P(p^ > 0.5) = P(z > (x - μ)/σ)

Thus;

P(p^ > 0.5) = P(z > (0.5 - 0.52)/0.025)

This gives;

P(p^ > 0.5) = P(z > - 0.8)

This gives;

P(p^ > 0.5) = 1 - P(z < -0.8)

From the table attached we have a z value of 0.21186

Thus;

P(p^ > 0.5) = 1 - 0.21186 = 0.7881

Thus, the probability the newspaper’s sample will lead them to predict defeat is 0.7871

Which of the following numbers is both a perfect square and a perfect cube?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

531441

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find by   factorization

531441 = 9 * 9 * 9 * 9 * 9 *9 = (9*9*9) * (9*9*9)

\sqrt[3]{531441}=\sqrt[3]{9*9*9*9*9*9}  =9*9 = 81\\\\\\\sqrt{531441}=\sqrt{(9*9)*(9*9)*(9*9)}=9*9*9=729
