Martha wants to build a rectangular wooden border around the perimeter of her children's playground. She can find the perimeter

by using the formula 2w + 2l. The length, l, is 12 feet and the width, w, is 10 feet. What is the perimeter of Martha's wooden border?

Answer: The perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 44 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The formula to find the perimeter = 2w + 2l. , where w = width and l = length

If l= 12 feet and w = 10 feet

Then, the perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 2(10)+2 (12) feet

The perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 20+24 feet

The perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 44 feet

Therefore, the perimeter of Martha's wooden border = 44 feet.

Prove that the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a number is even if it is expressed so n = 2k. It is odd if it is in the form 2k + 1 (k is just an integer)

Let's say we have to odd numbers, 2a + 1, and 2b + 1. We are after the sum of their squares, so we have (2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2. Now let's expand this;

(2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2 = 4a^2 + 4a + 4b + 4b^2 + 4b + 2

= 2(2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1)

Now the sum in the parenthesis, 2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1, is just another integer, which we can pose as k. Remember that 2 times any random integer, either odd or even, is always even. Therefore the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even.

Use the geometric probability distribution to solve the following problem. On the leeward side of the island of Oahu, in a small
Greeley [361]

Answer:

(a) \text{P(n)} = \text{p} \times \text{(1 - p)}^{n-1} ; \text{ n} = 1, 2, 3,....

(b) P(1) = 0.740, P(2) = 0.192, and P(3) = 0.050.

(c) The probability that n ≥ 4 is 0.018.

(d) The expected number of residents in the village you must meet before you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that on the leeward side of the island of Oahu, in a small village, about 74% of the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry.

Let n = 1, 2, 3, … represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village.

(a) We can observe that the above situation can be represented through the geometric distribution because the geometric distribution states that we will keep on going with the trials until we achieve our first success,

Here also, n represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village.

So, the probability distribution of the geometric distribution is given by;

\text{P(n)} = \text{p} \times \text{(1 - p)}^{n-1} ; \text{ n} = 1, 2, 3,....

where, p = probability that the residents are of Hawaiian ancestry = 74%

(b) The probabilities that n = 1, n = 2, and n = 3 is given by;

\text{P(n)} = \text{p} \times \text{(1 - p)}^{n-1}

P(1) = \text{0.74} \times \text{(1 - 0.74)}^{1-1} = 0.74

P(2) = \text{0.74} \times \text{(1 - 0.74)}^{2-1} = 0.192

P(3) = \text{0.74} \times \text{(1 - 0.74)}^{3-1} = 0.050

(c) The probability that n ≥ 4 is given by = P(n ≥ 4)

     P(n ≥ 4) = 1 - P(n = 1) - P(n = 2) - P(n = 3)

                   = 1 - 0.74 - 0.192 - 0.050

                   = 0.018

(d) The expected number of residents in the village you must meet before you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry is given by = E(n)

We know that the mean of the geometric distribution is given by;

           Mean = \dfrac{p}{1-p} = \dfrac{0.74}{1-0.74}

                     = \dfrac{0.74}{0.26} = 2.85 or 3 (approx).

Find the volume of the cone shown. Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

307.72 cubic in

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Height of cone=24 in

Slant height of cone=25 in

We know that

Diameter, d=\sqrt{l^2-h^2}

d=\sqrt{(25)^2-(24)^2}=\sqrt{49}=7 in

Radius of cone=r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{7}{2}in

Volume of cone =\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Where \pi=3.14

Using the formula

Volume of cone=\frac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times (\frac{7}{2})^2\times 24

Volume of cone=307.72 cubic in
