A paper recycling bin has the dimensions shown.use the expression s3 where s represents the length of a side to find the volume
ziro4ka [17]
I found a similar problem with its corresponding figure. It shows a recycling bin whose length is 1/2 meters, width is 1/2 meters, and height is 1/2 meters.

Based on the measure, the bin is a cube. Its volume formula is s³.

V = (1/2 m)³
V = 1/2 m * 1/2 m * 1/2 m
V = 1/8 m³

V = 0.5 m * 0.5m * 0.5m = 0.125 m³
0.125m³ =  1/8 m³

The volume of the paper recycling bin is 1/8 m³ or 0.125m³

Write the denominator of the rational number257/500 in the form 2 m x 5 n , m and n are negative integers Hence write its decima
maw [93]

Answer:

0.514

Step-by-step Explantion:

Denominator = 500 = 2^2 * 5^3

257/500 = 257/2^2*5^3 = 2*257/2*2^2*5^3 = 514/2^3*5^3 = 514/(2*5)^3 = 514/10^3 = 0.514

Yuri is thinking of a 4-digit whole number. He rounds his number to the nearest thousand. His answer is 4000, what is the smalle
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Smallest number = 3500

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding of numbers involve replacing numbers with simpler numbers. In order to round a number to the nearest thousand, the last 3 digits of the number should be considered. If the last 3 digits are less than 500, the number is rounded down(the thousand figure is unaffected), but if the last 3 digits are greater or equal to 500, the number is rounded up.

In this case, Yuri is thinking of a 4-digit whole number and he rounds his number to the nearest thousand. Since his answer is 4000, the smallest number yuri could be thinking of would be 3500 and the highest number he could be thinking of is 4499.

Thus, the smallest number Yuri could be thinking of is 3500

A certain article indicates that in a sample of 1,000 dog owners, 610 said that they take more pictures of their dog than of the
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

(a) The 90% confidence interval is: (0.60, 0.63) Correct interpretation is (3).

(b) The 95% confidence interval is: (0.42, 0.46) Correct interpretation is (1).

(c) First, the confidence level in part(b) is <u>more than</u> the confidence level in part(a) is, so the critical value of part(b) is <u>more than</u> the critical value of part(a), Second the <u>margin of error</u> in part(b) is <u>more than</u> than in part(a).

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Let <em>X</em> = number of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than of their significant others or friends.

Given:

<em>X</em> = 610

<em>n</em> = 1000

Confidence level = 90%

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

The sample proportion is:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{610}{1000}=0.61

The critical value of <em>z</em> for a 90% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.10/2}=z_[0.05}=1.645

Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than their significant others or friends as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.61\pm 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.61(1-0.61}{1000}}\\=0.61\pm 0.015\\=(0.595, 0.625)\\\approx(0.60, 0.63)

Thus, the 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than their significant others or friends is (0.60, 0.63).

<u>Interpretation</u>:

There is a 90% chance that the true proportion of dog owners who take more pictures of their dog than of their significant others or friends falls within the interval (0.60, 0.63).

Correct option is (3).

(b)

Let <em>X</em> = number of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend.

Given:

<em>X</em> = 440

<em>n</em> = 1000

Confidence level = 95%

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

The sample proportion is:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{440}{1000}=0.44

The critical value of <em>z</em> for a 95% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.44\pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.44(1-0.44}{1000}}\\=0.44\pm 0.016\\=(0.424, 0.456)\\\approx(0.42, 0.46)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend  is (0.42, 0.46).

<u>Interpretation</u>:

There is a 95% chance that the true proportion of dog owners who are more likely to complain to their dog than to a friend falls within the interval (0.42, 0.46).

Correct option is (1).

(c)

The confidence interval in part (b) is wider than the confidence interval in part (a).

The width of the interval is affected by:

  1. The confidence level
  2. Sample size
  3. Standard deviation.

The confidence level in part (b) is more than that in part (a).

Because of this the critical value of <em>z</em> in part (b) is more than that in part (a).

Also the margin of error in part (b) is 0.016 which is more than the margin of error in part (a), 0.015.

First, the confidence level in part(b) is <u>more than</u> the confidence level in part(a) is, so the critical value of part(b) is <u>more than</u> the critical value of part(a), Second the <u>margin of error</u> in part(b) is <u>more than</u> than in part(a).

Harvey has “r” red peppers and one fourth as many orange peppers. Choose the expression that shows how many orange peppers Harve
lana [24]

Answer:

\frac{1}{4}r

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of red pepper that Harvey has is r red peppers and one fourth as many orange peppers. What this means is that the number of orange pepper that Harvey has is one fourth the number of red peppers. Since the number of red pepper is r, therefore the number of orange pepper is given as:

Number of orange pepper = \frac{1}{4} \ of\ red\ pepper(r)

Number\ of\ orange\ pepper=\frac{1}{4}r
