<span>Multiply the length and width together to get the total required area - 5*8 = 40. Now each tile covers 3 inches and you need to cover 40 feet, so convert feet into inches by multiplying 40 by 12 (480). Now divide 480 (desired area) by 3 (how much each tile covers) to get 160 - the amount of tiles you'll need.

Sorry, didn't realize I didn't post it as an answer. But no problem!</span>

The answer is 120 cuz you multiply 5 times 8 and get 40 the multiply 40 times 3

Answer:

The confidence interval for the difference in proportions is

-0.028\leq p_1-p_2 \leq 0.096

No. As the 95% CI include both negative and positive values, no proportion is significantly different from the other to conclude there is a difference between them.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct a confidence interval for the difference of proportions.

The difference in the sample proportions is:

p_1-p_2=x_1/n_1-x_2/n_2=(183/217)-(322/398)=0.843-0.809\\\\p_1-p_2=0.034

The estimated standard error is:

\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2} } \\\\\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{\frac{0.843*0.157}{217}+\frac{0.809*0.191}{398} } \\\\\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{0.000609912+0.000388239}=\sqrt{0.000998151} \\\\ \sigma_{p_1-p_2}=0.0316

The z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

Then, the lower and upper bounds are:

LL=(p_1-p_2)-z*\sigma_p=0.034-1.96*0.0316=0.034-0.062=-0.028\\\\\\UL=(p_1-p_2)+z*\sigma_p=0.034+1.96*0.0316=0.034+0.062=0.096

The confidence interval for the difference in proportions is

-0.028\leq p_1-p_2 \leq 0.096

<em>Can it be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of drivers who wear a seat belt at all times based on age group?</em>

No. It can not be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of drivers who wear a seat belt at all times based on age group, as the confidence interval include both positive and negative values.

This means that we are not confident that the actual difference of proportions is positive or negative. No proportion is significantly different from the other to conclude there is a difference.

A food company originally sells cereal in boxes with dimensions 25 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm. To make more profit, the company decrea
hjlf

Answer:

1.75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the dimensions of the box as 25 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm.

Now, to increase the profit, the dimensions of the box by 'x' cm.

Thus, the new dimensions are (25-x) cm by (14-x) cm by (10-x) cm.

Further, it is given that the volume of the new box is 2,208 cm^{3}

As, Volume of the box = Length × Breadth × Height

i.e. 2208 = (25-x) × (14-x) × (10-x)

i.e. 2208 = (25-x) \times (140-24x-x^{2})

i.e. 2208=x^{3}-x^{2}-740x+3500

i.e. x^{3}-x^{2}-740x+1292=0

On solving this cubic equations, we get that, the solutions are x = 27.6, x = 1.75 and x = 26.8.

Since, the dimensions 25 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm are reduced by x cm.

Thus, if x = 27.6 or x = 26.8, then (10-x) = -17.6 or -16.8, which cannot be possible. So, x = 1.75 cm.

Hence, the dimensions were decreased by 1.75 cm.

Because you are working a late shift, you will get an increase in your wage. You will get and additional 10% per hour from 6:00p
siniylev [52]

CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW:

Supervisor: "Because you are working a late shift, you will get an increase in your wage. You will get an additional 10% per hour from 6:00 PM to 12:00 AM and additional 15% from 12:00 AM to 1:00 AM." Employee: "I am working from 2:00 PM to 12:00 AM. Between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM, I will make $12.00 per hour. Between 6:00 PM and 12:00 AM, I will make __________ per hour

Answer:

I will make $13.2 per hour

Explanation:

It can be deducted from the question that that the money Employee gets money for Working from 2.00 PM to 6.00 PM = $12per hour

Also the Employee gets additional 10% of money for working from 6.00 PM to 12.00 AM which implies that

10% = (10/100)*$12per hour

=$1.2per hour

Again, Employee gets additional 15% of the money for working from 12.00 AM to 01.00 AM which can be calculated as:

15% = (15/100)*$12per hour

=$1.8 per hour

which means that Employee gets additional $1.8 per hour

of the money for working from 12.00 AM to 01.00 AM

Therefore, if Employee works from 2.00 PM to 12.00 AM,

Employee will gets money for Working from 2.00 PM to 6.00 PM as well as the 10\% extra wage which

= $12 + $1.2 = $13.2

= \$ 12 + \$ 1.2 = \$ 13.2

Consider the probability distribution of x, where x is the number of job applications completed by a college senior through the
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The expected number out of 1000 selected college seniors that completed 1 job application through the career centers is given by 0.011 x 1000 = 11 which is close to 14.

The expected number out of 1000 selected college seniors that completed 2 job application through the career centers is given by 0.115 x 1000 = 115 which is far away from 15.

The expected number out of 1000 selected college seniors that completed 3 job application through the career centers is given by 0.123 x 1000 = 123 which is close to 130.

Therefore, the result that would be suprising is "15 seniors completed 2 job applications through the career center."
