Maura swims the length of a pool 8 times .The pool is 17.4 meters long .How many meters does Maura swim in all

In politics, marketing, etc. we often want to estimate a percentage or proportion p. One calculation in statistical polling is t

podryga [215]

Answer:

|0.254 ≤ p ≤ 0.286|

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

In a made up poll :

Proportion of people who like dark chocolate than milk chocolate (p) = 27%

Margin of Error = 1.6%

Hence,

p ± margin of error

27% ± 1.6%

(27 - 1.6)% ; (27 + 1.6)%

25.4% ; 28.6%

0.254 ; 0.286

Therefore ;

Lower bound = 0.254

Upper bound = 0.286

Expressing p as an absolute value Inequality ;

|0.254 ≤ p ≤ 0.286|

The SAT mathematics scores in the state of Florida are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard devi

ivann1987 [24]

Since the range of the scores given was between 300 and 700 (which is 2 standard deviations below and above the mean), the probability that a randomly selected student's math score - as based on the empirical rule of statistics - is 95%. In decimal form, it is .95.

A community hall is in the shape of a cuboid the hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide. 10 litre paint covers 25m squared costs

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Total cost for tiles and paints is $924.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a community hall is in the shape of a cuboid. The hall is 40m long 15m high and 3m wide.

The paint will be required for 4 walls and ceiling.

Let us find area of walls and ceiling.

$\text{Area of walls and ceiling}=(2*40*15)+(2*3*15)+(40*3)$

$\text{Area of walls and ceiling}=1200+90+120$

$\text{Area of walls and ceiling}=1410$

Therefore, the area of walls and ceiling is 1410 square meters.

Given: Cost for 10 litre of paint is $10 and 10 litre paint covers 25 square meter. Therefore,

$\text{ The total painting cost}=10*(\frac{1410}{25})$

$\text{ The total painting cost}=10*56.4=564$

Therefore, the total painting cost is $564.

Tiles will be required for floor. Let us find the area of floor.

$\text{Area of floor} = 40*3\text{ square meters}$

$\text{Area of floor} =120\text{ square meters}$

Given: 1m squared floor tiles costs $3. So,

$\text{Total cost for tiles} = 3*120 = 360$

Therefore, the total tiles cost is $360.

Now let us find combined total cost of tiles and paint.

$\text{Combined total cost}= 564+360 = 924$

Therefore, the combined total cost of tiles and paint is $924.

Lamark goes to a bowling alley to test his belief that rolling a bowling ball slowly will result in knocking down more pins. He

jolli1 [7]

Answer: Ball's kinetic energy became potential energy

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no options attached but this should be along the lines of what happened.

Kinetic energy refers to energy that an object has as a result of it moving whilst potential energy is the opposite and is energy that an object stores within itself due to several factors whilst it is not in motion.

The ball was initially in motion which means that it had kinetic energy but as the ball was slowing down, this energy was gradually converted to potential energy until the balls came to a standstill.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula that relates the length of a ladder, L, that leans against a wall with distance d from the base of the wall and the height h that the ladder reaches up the wall is L = StartRoot d squared + h squared EndRoot. What height on the wall will a 15-foot ladder reach if it is placed 3.5 feet from the base of a wall?

L = √d² + h²
