Alannah has two lengths of ribbon.

Mathematics
1 answer:
ankoles [38]1 year ago
7 0

Answer:

Longest possible length for each of the shorter lengths of ribbon is 9 cm because greatest common factor for both 36 and 45 is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alannah has two ribbons one length is 36cm and other is 45cm.

It asked to find shorter length of ribbons that each cut into equal pieces with out no ribbon left over.

So, let's find greatest common factor for both 36 and 45.

Let's prime factor each number

36= 2*2*3*3

45= 3*3*5

So, GCF is product of common factors for both numbers.

GCF= 3*3 =9

So, longest possible length for each of the shorter lengths of ribbon is 9 cm.

(Ross 5.15) If X is a normal random variable with parameters µ " 10 and σ 2 " 36, compute (a) PpX ą 5q (b) Pp4 ă X ă 16q (c) PpX
pochemuha

Answer:

(a) 0.7967

(b) 0.6826

(c) 0.3707

(d) 0.9525

(e) 0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with mean <em>μ</em> = 10 and  variance <em>σ</em>² = 36.

(a)

Compute the value of P (X > 5) as follows:

P(X>5)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{5-10}{\sqrt{36}})\\=P(Z>-0.833)\\=P(Z

Thus, the value of P (X > 5) is 0.7967.

(b)

Compute the value of P (4 < X < 16) as follows:

P(4

Thus, the value of P (4 < X < 16) is 0.6826.

(c)

Compute the value of P (X < 8) as follows:

P(X

Thus, the value of P (X < 8) is 0.3707.

(d)

Compute the value of P (X < 20) as follows:

P(X

Thus, the value of P (X < 20) is 0.9525.

(e)

Compute the value of P (X > 16) as follows:

P(X>16)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{16-10}{\sqrt{36}})\\=P(Z>1)\\=1-P(Z

Thus, the value of P (X > 16) is 0.1587.

**Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probabilities.

Mr. Peterson needs topsoil for his garden. His rectangular garden is 78 in long and 48 in wide. A bag of topsoil covers an area
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

3744 inches squared, and 8 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Ⓗⓘ ⓣⓗⓔⓡⓔ

˜”*°•.˜”*°• Area: •°*”˜.•°*”˜

Well, the formula for area is L*W

L=78 inches

W=48 inches

78*48=3744 inches squared

˜”*°•.˜”*°• Number of bags: •°*”˜.•°*”˜

3744/500=7.448

So he would need to buy 8 bags

What is f(x) = 7x2 + 42x written in vertex form?
amid [387]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{y = 7(x+3)^2-63}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The general vertex form of parabola is,

y=a(x-h)+k

where,

(h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

The given function is,

\Rightarrow f(x) = 7x^2 + 42x

\Rightarrow y = 7x^2 + 42x

\Rightarrow y = 7(x^2 + 6x)

\Rightarrow y = 7(x^2 + 2\cdot x\cdot 3)

\Rightarrow y = 7(x^2 + 2\cdot x\cdot 3+3^3-3^2)

\Rightarrow y = 7(x^2 + 2\cdot x\cdot 3+3^3)-7\cdot 3^2

\Rightarrow y = 7(x+3)^2-7\cdot 9

\Rightarrow y = 7(x+3)^2-63

This is vertex form the given function.
