4.5 pounds

72 ounces


HOW-TO:

1. we know that 1 pound is 16 ounces.

So let's find how many of 16 are needed for 72.

72 ÷ 16 = 4.5

Use that answer and multiply it by the number of pounds per 16 ounces.

You get 4.5 pounds.

The newly elected president needs to decide the remaining 7 spots available in the cabinet he/she is appointing. If there are 13
Alexxx [7]

Answer: 8648640 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of positions = 7

Number of eligible candidates = 13

This can be done by solving the question using the combination Formula for selection in which we use the combination formula to choose 7 candidates amomg the possible 13.

The combination Formula is denoted as:

nCr = n! / (n-r)! * r!

Where n = total number of possible options.

r = number of options to be selected.

Hence, selecting 7 candidates from 13 becomes:

13C7 = 13! / (13-7)! * 7!

13C7 = 1716.

Considering the order they can come in, they can come in 7! Orders. We multiply this order by the earlier answer we calculated. This give: 1716 * 7! = 8648640

While conducting experiments, a marine biologist selects water depths from a uniformly distributed collection that vary between
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m is 0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> denote the water depths.

As the variable water depths is continuous variable, the random variable <em>X</em> follows a continuous Uniform distribution with parameters <em>a</em> = 2.00 m and <em>b</em> = 7.00 m.

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a

Compute the probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m as follows:

P(2.25

                               =\frac{1}{5.00}\int\limits^{5.00}_{2.25} {1} \, dx\\\\=0.20\times [x]^{5.00}_{2.25} \\\\=0.20\times (5.00-2.25)\\\\=0.55

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m is 0.55.

Can someone explain to me what a “derivative” means? How do you find the derivative of f(x)=x^3+1?
Ostrovityanka [42]
The derivative is the rate of change of a function, basically represents the slope at different points. To find the derivative of the given function you can use the power rule, which means, if n is a real number, d/dx(x^n)= nx^(n-1). This is a simplification of the chain rule based on the fact that d/dx(x)=1. Anyway, this means that d/dx(x^3 + 1)= 3x^2. Here n is 3 and so it is 3*x^(3-1)= 3x^2. The derivative of x^3+1 is 3x^2.

If you are wondering what happened to the 1, for any constant C, d/dx(C)=0.

Which describes an isometric transformation? dilation/ rotation/ side length change/ angle change
Westkost [7]

Answer:

  rotation

Step-by-step explanation:

"Isometric" means all measures stay the same.

  • dilation changes all lengths
  • <em>rotation changes no measures -- an isometric transformation</em>
  • side length change obviously changes the length of a side
  • angle change obviously changes the measure of an angle
