A 10 2/3 inch long pipe is cut into 8 equal length pieces, how long is each piece​

Mathematics
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

\frac{4}{3} inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of pipe is  10  2/3rd inches

It is cut into 8 equal pieces

We need to divide total length by 8 to get length of each piece. First, we have to convert mixed number (total length) to improper fraction by using formula shown below:

a\frac{b}{c}=\frac{(a*c)+b}{c}

So,

10\frac{2}{3}=\frac{32}{3}

Each piece length is:

\frac{\frac{32}{3}}{8}\\=\frac{32}{3}*\frac{1}{8}\\=\frac{32}{24}\\=\frac{4}{3}

So, each piece is \frac{4}{3} inches

The increasing annual cost (including tuition, room, board, books, and fees) to attend college has been widely discussed (Time).
NeX [460]

Answer:

(a) PRIVATE COLLEGES

Sample mean is $42.5 thousand

Sample standard deviation is $6.65 thousand

PUBLIC COLLEGES

Sample mean is $22.3 thousand

Sample standard deviation is $4.34 thousand

(b) Point estimate is $20.2 thousand. The mean annual cost to attend private colleges ($42.5 thousand) is more than the mean annual cost to attend public colleges ($22.3 thousand)

(c) 95% confidence interval of the difference between the mean annual cost of attending private and public colleges is $19.2 thousand to $21.2 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) PRIVATE COLLEGES

Sample mean = Total cost ÷ number of colleges = (51.8+42.2+45+34.3+44+29.6+46.8+36.8+51.5+43) ÷ 10 = 425 ÷ 10 = $42.5 thousand

Sample standard deviation = sqrt[summation (cost - sample mean)^2 ÷ number of colleges] = sqrt([(51.8-42.5)^2 + (42.2-42.5)^2 + (45-42.5)^2 + (34.3-42.5)^2 + (44-42.5)^2 + (29.6-42.5)^2 + (36.8-42.5)^2 + (51.5-42.5)^2 + (43-42.5)^2] ÷ 10) = sqrt (44.24) = $6.65 thousand

PUBLIC COLLEGES

Sample mean = (20.3+22+28.2+15.6+24.1+28.5+22.8+25.8+18.5+25.6+14.4+21.8) ÷ 12 = 267.6 ÷ 12 = $22.3 thousand

Sample standard deviation = sqrt([(20.3-22.3)^2 + (22-22.3)^2 + (28.2-22.3)^2 + (15.6-22.3)^2 + (24.1-22.3)^2 + (28.5-22.3)^2 + (22.8-22.3)^2 + (25.8-22.3)^2 + (18.5-22.3)^2 + (25.6-22.3)^2 + (14.4-22.3)^2 + (21.8-22.3)^2] ÷ 12) = sqrt (18.83) = $4.34 thousand

(b) Point estimate = mean annual cost of attending private colleges - mean annual cost of attending public colleges = $42.5 thousand - $22.3 thousand = $20.2 thousand.

This implies the the mean annual cost of attending private colleges is greater than the mean annual cost of attending public colleges

(c) Confidence Interval = Mean + or - Margin of error (E)

E = t×sd/√n

Mean = $42.5 - $22.3 = $20.2 thousand

sd = $6.65 - $4.34 = $2.31 thousand

n = 10+12 = 22

degree of freedom = 22-2 = 20

t-value corresponding to 20 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 2.086

E = 2.086×$2.31/√22 = $1.0 thousand

Lower bound = Mean - E = $20.2 thousand - $1.0 thousand = $19.2 thousand

Upper bound = Mean + E = $20.2 thousand + $1.0 thousand = $21.2 thousand

95% confidence interval is $19.2 thousand to $21.2 thousand

Ms. Brack wants to hang a bulletin board with
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

He needs 8.75 ft² polka dot paper to cover the board.

Step-by-step explanation:

How much polka dot paper she need to cover the board is the area of the board . The is a rectangle with length 3.5 ft long and width of 2.5 ft wide .

The area of the board(rectangle) = length × width

Area = LW

where

L= 3.5 ft

W = 2.5 ft

Area = 3.5 × 2.5

Area = 8.75 ft²

He needs 8.75 ft² polka dot paper to cover the board.
