Let's find the area of the base.

It's a rectangle that's 3.8 by 4.8, so let's multiply.
3.8×4.8=18.24

We have two different triangles.
Triangle one has a height of 2.6 and base of 4.8. But there are two of them.
2.6×4.8×0.5=6.24×2= 12.48; this is the area of two triangles.

Another set of triangles has a height of 2.9 and a base of 3.8.
2.9×3.8×0.5=5.51×2=11.02

Let's add all the areas together.
18.24+12.48+11.02
41.74

The surface area is 41.74 m², so the third option.

A random sample of size 100 was taken from a population. A 94% confidence interval to estimate the mean of the population was co

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The z value was determined using a normal distribution table. From the normal distribution table, the corresponding z value for a 94% confidence interval is 1.88

The correct option is D

2) if 70% of all internet users experience e-mail fraud. It means that probability of success, p

p = 70/100 = 0.7

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

n = number of selected users = 50

Mean, u = np = 50×0.7 = 35

Standard deviation, u = √npq = √50×0.7×0.3 = 3.24

x = number of internet users

The formula for normal distribution is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

We want to determine the probability that no more than 25 were victims of e-mail fraud. It is expressed as

P(x lesser than or equal to 25)

The z value will be

z = (25- 35)/3.24 = - 10/3.24 = -3.09

Looking at the normal distribution table, the corresponding z score is 0.001

P(x lesser than or equal to 25) = 0.001

If x varies jointly as y and z, and x = 8 when y = 4 and z = 9, find z when x = 16 and y = 6. 3

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Joint variation says that:

if $x \propto y$ and $x \propto z$

then the equation is in the form of:

$x = kyz$ , where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If x varies jointly as y and z

then by definition we have;

$x=k(yz)$ ......[1]

Solve for k;

when x = 8 , y=4 and z=9

then

Substitute these in [1] we have;

$8=k(4 \cdot 9)$

⇒ $8 = 36k$

Divide both sides by 36 we have;

$\frac{8}{3}=k$

Simplify:

$k = \frac{2}{9}$

⇒ $x = \frac{2}{9}yz$

to find z when x = 16 and y = 6

Substitute these value we have;

$16 = \frac{2}{9} \cdot 6 \cdot z$

⇒ $16 = \frac{12}{9}z$

Multiply both sides by 9 we have;

$144 = 12z$

Divide both sides by 12 we have;

12 = z

z = 12

Therefore, the value of z is, 12

Amy is just learning how to rock climb. Her instructor takes her to a 26 ft climbing wall for her first time. She climbs up 5 ft

boyakko [2]

Let's compute the speeds as she goes up and down of the climbing wall. Speed is the ratio of distance to time.

Speed going up = 5 ft/(2min * 60 s/1 min) = 1/24 ft/s
Speed going down = 2 ft/10 s = 0.2 ft/s
Net speed = 1/24 ft/s - 0.2 ft/s = 5/24 ft/s

Using this net speed, we can already calculate for the total time:

Speed = Distance/Time
5/24 ft/s = 26 ft/Time
Time = 124.8 seconds or 2.08 minutes
