Eli needs pieces of ribbon cut into strips that are 2 1\2 feet long. The roll of ribbon is 7 1\2 feet long. Which expression cou

julsineya [31]

Answer: There are 3 strips that can be cut from the roll of ribbon.

Step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

Length of a ribbon is given by

$7\frac{1}{2}\ ft\\\\=\frac{15}{2}\ ft$

Length of pieces of ribbon cut into strips is given by

$2\frac{1}{2}\ ft\\\\=\frac{5}{2}\ ft$

So, we need to find the number of strips that can be cut is given by

$\text{ Number of strips }=\frac{\text{Length of roll}}{\text{ Length of strip}}\\\\=\frac{\frac{15}{2}}{\frac{5}{2}}\\\\=\frac{15\times 2}{2\times 5}\\\\=\frac{15}{5}\\\\=3$

Hence, there are 3 strips that can be cut from the roll of ribbon.

timama [110]

<span>Using the Pythagorean theorum we can solve this v a^2+b^2= c^2. A is the distance from base of house to ladder A= 1.5, c ifls length of ladder, c= 10. (1.5)^2 + ;b^2 = (10)^2. Solve for b. B= 9.88. 12 foot height of house - 9.88 feet to top of angled ladder = 2.11 from top of ladder to edge of roof</span>

An automotive manufacturer wants to know the proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over domestic. In an earlier s

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

1,496 new car buyers

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size n in Simple Random Sampling is given by

$\bf n=\frac{z^2p(1-p)}{e^2}$

where

z = 1.645 is the critical value for a 90% confidence level (*)

p= 0.33 is the population proportion.

e = 0.02 is the margin of error

so

$\bf n=\frac{(1.645)^20.33*0.67}{0.02^2}=1,495.76\approx 1,496$

<em>(*)</em><em>This is a point z such that the area under the Normal curve N(0,1) inside the interval [-z, z] equals 90% = 0.9</em>

It can be obtained in Excel or OpenOffice Calc with

<em>NORMSINV(0.95)</em>
