Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

B. no, it is not low enough

A. no, it is not low enough

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Air-USA has a policy of booking as many as 24 persons on an airplane that can seat only 22.

Prob for a random person booked arrive for flight = 0.86

No of persons who books and arrive for flight, X is binomial, since there are two outcomes and each person is independent of the other

The probability that if Air-USA books 24 persons, not enough seats will be available

= P(X=23)+P(x=24)

= 0.1315

B. no, it is not low enough

-------------------------------

The prob we got is >10% also

A. no, it is not low enough

The sum of 1/6,2/3, and 1/4 is

Bumek [7]

¹³/₁₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{4} = ? \ }$

A fraction represents part of a whole.
A fraction consists of a numerator and a denominator. i.e., $\boxed{ \ \frac{numerator}{denominator} \ }$ .
The numerator = the number of equal parts of a whole.
The denominator = the total number of parts that make up said whole.

From the problems above, the denominator or the bottom numbers are still different. We use the Least Common Multiple (or LCM) to equalize the denominator.

Multiples of 3: $\boxed{ \ \{3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ... \} \ }$
Multiples of 4: $\boxed{ \ \{4, 8, 12, 16, ... \} \ }$
Multiples of 6: $\boxed{ \ \{6, 12, 18, ... \} \ }$

Hence, the LCM for 3, 4, and 6 is 12.

We change the denominator for each fraction to 12.

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{6} \rightarrow \frac{multiply \ by \ 2}{multiply \ by \ 2} \rightarrow \frac{2}{12} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \frac{2}{3} \rightarrow \frac{multiply \ by \ 4}{multiply \ by \ 4} \rightarrow \frac{8}{12} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{4} \rightarrow \frac{multiply \ by \ 3}{multiply \ by \ 3} \rightarrow \frac{3}{12} \ }$

Then we continue adding fractions.

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{12} + \frac{8}{12} + \frac{3}{12} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{4} = \boxed{ \ \frac{13}{12} \ } \ }$

Thus, the result is $\boxed{ \ \frac{13}{12} \ or \ 1\frac{1}{12}\ }$

the floor of a shed has an area of 96 square feet. the floor is in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 4 feet less than twi

Paul [167]

Alright in this one, you are going to need to factor.
The width is x
The length is 2x-4
To find the area of a rectangle is L*W
so (2x-4)(x) when distributed is 2x^2 -4x

Then put that in the equation and you have:
2x^2 -4x = 96
2x^2 -4x -96 = 0

2x^2+12x-16x-96=0
3x(x+4)-4(x+4)=0
(3x-4)=0
(x+4)=0
x=-4
<u>x=3/4</u>
Since length isn't negative
we will use <u>3/4 as x.
</u>
Width= 0.75 ft
Length= 1.5

Need some answers for this one

Schach [20]

Answer:

20.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the diameter of each circle is 4, the dimensions of the rectangle is 8x12

The area of the whole rectangle is 96

Now we need to find the area of the circles

The area of 1 circle is $2^{2} *\pi =12.56$ ...

So the area of all 6 circles is 12.56*6= 75.39...

So to find the area of yellow you have to subract the area of circle from the overall area of the rectangle

96-75.4=20.6
