Answer:

C. 12,600

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try a rough approximation by finding the volume of the room, finding the volume of one basketball, an dividing the first volume by the second one. This method will give a large estimate since there will be empty space between the balls.

volume of room:

V = L * W * H = 15 * 20 * 10 ft^3 = 3,000 ft^3

volume of one ball:

circumference = 29 in.

From the circumference we find the radius.

circumference = 2(pi)r

2(pi)r = 29 in.

r = (29 in.)/(2pi) = 4.61549 in.

Now we convert inches to feet.

4.61549 in. = 4.61549/12 ft = 0.384624 ft

Now we use the radius of a ball in ft to find the volume of a ball in cubic feet.

V = (4/3)(pi)r^3 = (4/3)(3.14159)(0.384624 ft)^3 = 0.23834 ft^3

Now we divide the volume of the room by the volume of a ball.

number of balls = (3,000 ft^3)/(0.23834 ft^3) = 12,587

The closest answer is C. 12,600

In studying the insurance preferences of homeowners the following conclusions are made: A homeowner is three times as likely to

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

0.632

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a homeowner is three times as likely to purchase additional jewelry coverage as additional electronics coverage

If probability of purchasing additional electronics coverage = p, then prob of purchasing jewelry coverage = 3p

The two events are independent hence joint probability is product of these two.

i.e. P(both) = $p(3p) =3p^2$

This is given as 0.2

$3p^2 =0.2\\p = 0.258$

the probability that a homeowner purchases exactly one coverage.

$=P(AUB)-P(A \bigcap B)$

= Prob he purchases I + prob he purchases II-2(prob he purchases both)

$= 0.258+3(0.258)-2(0.2)\\=0.632$

What is the length of the y-component of the vector plotted below?

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vector shown in the figure has components on the x axis and on the y axis.

If each small box on the draw represents a unit, it can be seen that the vector has a component of<u> length equal to 1 on the positive y-axis </u>and a length equal to 4 on the positive x-axis.

Look at the attached image

The sum of these two components results in the vector shown in the figure. Therefore the correct option is option A.

The length is equal to 1

Art [367]

The average volume if these eggs will be found as follows:
Volume of one egg is:
V=4/3πr²
V=4/3×π×(4.5/2)^3
V=71.57 cm³
Given that the turtle lays on average 113 eggs, thus the total volume of eggs will be:
(113×71.57)
=8187.41~8187 cm³
