Answer:

125 feet

step by step explanation:

i dont know how to explain it but you have to draw a line in the box where the shape is creating a small other rectangle if that makes sense. so it breaks it into 2 shapes, one that is 9 by 10 and one that is 5 by 7 because 16 - 9 is 7. its sounds confusing but 125 is the answer

They will need 125 square feet

You have to find the area of the total which will be :
16 x 10 = 160 square feet

Then find the small area that is missing
5 x 7 = 35 square feet

Subtract: 160 - 35 = 125 square feet

The variance of the binomial distribution of the number of households with landline service is 2.

<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>

It is the probability of <u>exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.

The variance of the distribution is given by:

V(X) = np(1 - p)

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

n = 8, p = 0.504.

Hence the variance is given by:

V(X) = 8 x 0.504 x 0.496 = 2.
