When calculating probability you need to remember that probability is:
something that you are observing divided by total number of participants.
The number you get is relative value(has value between 0 and 1) and if you want to get it in percentage (more clearly) just multiply it with 100.

In this case we are observing blood type B persons. Number of them is 165.
Total number of persons is 1500. Therefore our calculation looks like this:

165/1500 = 0.11 or the probability is 0.11*100=11%

A coffee bean processor can dry 4,815 pounds of coffee beans in 3 hours which unit rate correctly reflects the speed of the proc

zimovet [89]

Answer:

605 pounds/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a coffee bean processor can dry 4815 pounds of coffee in 3 hours.

We have to find the speed of the processor

By speed of the processor here we mean the unit rate i.e. no of pounds of coffee beans that the processor can process in one hour.

This is a question of direct variation

Since we have for 3 hours 4815

for 1 hour = $\frac{4815}{3} =605$ pounds/hour

So answer is 605 pounds/hour

Verify:

If unit rate is 605 pounds/hour, for 3 hours =605(3) = 4815 pounds

Thus verified

The base of an aquarium with given volume V is made of slate and the sides are made of glass. If the slate costs seven times as

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

$l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the volume of the box with V and the dimensions with l, b and h.

The volume (V) is:

$V = l * b * h$

Make h the subject of the formula

$h = \frac{V}{lb}$

The surface area (S) of the aquarium is:

$S = lb + 2(lh + bh)$

Where lb represents the area of the base (i.e. slate):

The cost (C) of the surface area is:

$C = 7 * lb + 1 * 2(lh + bh)$

$C = 7lb + 2(lh + bh)$

$C = 7lb + 2h(l + b)$

Substitute $\frac{V}{lb}$ for h in the above equation

$C = 7lb + 2*\frac{V}{lb}(l + b)$

$C = 7lb + \frac{2V}{lb}(l + b)$

$C = 7lb + \frac{2V}{b} + \frac{2V}{l}$

Differentiate with respect to l and with respect to b

$C_l=7b - \frac{2V}{l^2}$ $=0$

$C_b=7l - \frac{2V}{b^2}$ $=0$

To solve for b and l, we equate both equations and set l to b (to minimize the cost)

$7b - \frac{2V}{l^2}=7l - \frac{2V}{b^2}$

$7l - \frac{2V}{l^2}=7b - \frac{2V}{b^2}$

By comparison:

$l =b$

$C_l=7b - \frac{2V}{l^2}$ $=0$ becomes

$7l - \frac{2V}{l^2}=0$

$7l = \frac{2V}{l^2}$

Cross Multiply

$7l^3 = 2V$

Solve for l

$l^3 = \frac{2V}{7}$

$l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$

Recall that: $l =b$

$b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$

Also recall that:

$h = \frac{V}{lb}$

$h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}*\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}}$

$h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{4V^2}{49}}}$

Apply law of indices

$h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V^3}{4V^2}}$

$h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}$

The dimension that minimizes the cost of material of the aquarium is:

$l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}$

Given that Ray E B bisects ∠CEA, which statements must be true? Select three options. m∠CEA = 90° m∠CEF = m∠CEA + m∠BEF m∠CEB =

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

mCEA = 90ᴼ because CEA is a right angle, and right angles have 90ᴼ measures.

CEF is a straight angle because there are two 90ᴼ angles (CEA and AEF) and therefore there is 180ᴼ in total. A straight line has a measure of 180ᴼ.

AEF is a right angle because if CEA is a right angle and CEF is a straight line, then AEF has to be a right angle.

Eli caught three fish. The weights of the fish were 2lb4oz, 1lb11oz, and 4lb14oz,. What was the total weight of the three fish?

laiz [17]

Answer:

The total weight of the three fishes is 8lb and 13oz

Step-by-step explanation:

2lb 4oz + 1lb 11oz + 4lb + 14 = 7lb 29oz

Remember, there are 16 ounces (oz) in a pound (lb).

So 29oz - 16 oz would be 13oz and the answer would be 8lb and 13 oz.

Hope this helps, can you please mark me brainliest because I just need 4 more brainliest to become expert:)
