Whats the volume of the cylinder? Round your answer to the nearest hundred the top is B the left side of the cylinder is 13cm the bottom of the cylinder is 4cm so whats the volume of it?
Answer:
The volume of the cylinder is 163.3 m³.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Height = 13 cm
Base = 4 cm
So, radius = 2 cm
We need to calculate the volume of the cylinder
Using formula of cylinder
[tex]V=\pi r^2h[/tex]
Where, r = radius
h = height
Put the value into the formula
[tex]V=\pi\times(2)^2\times13[/tex]
[tex]V=163.3\ cm^3[/tex]
Hence, The volume of the cylinder is 163.3 cm³.

What two times could this be on the 24-hour clock?
The body paint, an automobile body paint shop, has determined that the painting time of automobiles is uniformly distributed and that the required time ranges between 45 minutes to 11/2hours.
What is the probability that the painting time will be less than or equal to an hour?
What is the probability that the painting time will be more than 50 minutes?
Determine the expected painting time and its standard deviation.
Answer:
a. [tex]\mathbf{P(Y \leq 60) = 0.3333}[/tex]
b. P(Y>50) = 0.8889
c. E(y) = 67.5 and Standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 12.99
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given :
an automobile body paint shop, has determined that the painting time of automobiles is uniformly distributed and that the required time ranges between 45 minutes to [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]hours.
The objective is to determine the probability that the painting time will be less than or equal to an hour?
since 60 minutes make an hour;
[tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]hours = 60 +30 minutes = 90 minutes
Let Y be the painting time of the automobile; then,
the probability that the painting time will be less than or equal to an hour ca be computed as :
[tex]P(Y \leq 60) = \int ^{60}_{45} f(y) dy \\ \\ \\ P(Y \leq 60) = \int ^{60}_{45} \dfrac{1}{45} dy \\ \\ \\ P(Y \leq 60) = \dfrac{1}{45} \begin {pmatrix} x\end {pmatrix}^{60}_{45} \\ \\ \\ P(Y \leq 60) = \dfrac{60-45}{45 } \\ \\ \\ P(Y \leq 60) = \dfrac{15}{45} \\ \\ \\ P(Y \leq 60) = \dfrac{1}{3} \\ \\ \\ P(Y \leq 60) = 0.3333[/tex]
What is the probability that the painting time will be more than 50 minutes?
The probability that the painting will be more than 50 minutes is P(Y>50)
So;
[tex]P(Y>50) = \int \limits ^{90}_{50} f(y) dy[/tex]
[tex]P(Y>50) = \int \limits ^{90}_{50} \dfrac {1}{45} dy[/tex]
[tex]P(Y>50) = \dfrac{1}{45}[x]^{90}_{50}[/tex]
[tex]P(Y>50) = (\dfrac{90-50}{45})[/tex]
[tex]P(Y>50) = \dfrac{40}{45}[/tex]
P(Y>50) = 0.8889
Determine the expected painting time and its standard deviation.
Let consider E to be the expected painting time
Then :
[tex]E(y) = \int \limits ^{90}_{45} y f(y) dy \\ \\ \\ E(y) = \int \limits ^{90}_{45} y \dfrac{1}{45} dy \\ \\ \\ E(y) = \dfrac{1}{45} [\dfrac{y^2}{2}]^{90}_{45} \\ \\ \\ E(y) = \dfrac{1}{45}[\dfrac{(90^2-45^2)}{2}] \\ \\ \\ E(y) = \dfrac{1}{45} (\dfrac{6075}{2}) \\ \\ \\ E(y) = \dfrac{1}{45} \times 3037.8 \\ \\ \\ \mathbf{E(y) = 67.5}[/tex]
[tex]E(y^2) = \int \limits ^{90}_{45} y^2 f(y) dy \\ \\ \\ E(y^2) = \int \limits ^{90}_{45} y^2 \dfrac{1}{45} dy \\ \\ \\ E(y^2) = \dfrac{1}{45} [\dfrac{y^3}{3}]^{90}_{45} \\ \\ \\ E(y^2) = \dfrac{1}{45}[\dfrac{(90^3-45^3)}{3}] \\ \\ \\ E(y^2) = \dfrac{1}{45} (\dfrac{637875}{3}) \\ \\ \\ E(y^2) = \dfrac{1}{45} \times 2126.25 \\ \\ \\ \mathbf{E(y^2) = 4725}[/tex]
To determine the standard deviation, we need to first know what is the value of our variance,
So:
Variance [tex]\sigma^2[/tex] = E(x²) - [E(x)]²
Variance [tex]\sigma^2[/tex] = 4725 - (67.5)²
Variance [tex]\sigma^2[/tex] = 4725 - 4556.25
Variance [tex]\sigma^2[/tex] = 168.75
Standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{variance}[/tex]
Standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{168.75}[/tex]
Standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 12.99

Answer: Choice DThe altitude a
(in feet) of a plane i minutes after liftoff is given by
a = 34001 + 600. How many minutes
after liftoff is the plane
at an altitude of
21.000 feet?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a=3400t+600, we put in 21,000 for a. Because we have to find 't' when 'a' is 21,000.
which will give us 21,000 = 3400t+600.
Then,Subtract 600 to both sides to get 20,400 = 3400t
Divide both sides by 3,400 and you get 6 = t.
The ans is 6 minutes. The plane will take 6 min to reach the altitude 21,000 feet

Write the following fractions as mixed number: 46/9, and 32/5
Answer:
[tex]5 \frac{1}{9}[/tex]
[tex]6 \frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can convert these improper fractions into mixed numbers by seeing how many times the denominator goes into the numerator.
In [tex]\frac{46}{9}[/tex], 9 goes into 46 5 times, with a remainder of 1. So:
[tex]5 \frac{1}{9}[/tex].
In [tex]\frac{32}{5}[/tex], 5 goes into 32 6 times with a remainder of 2, so:
[tex]6 \frac{2}{5}[/tex].
Hope this helped!
Answer:
5 1/9 and 6 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The simplest way to convert improper fractions into mixed fractions is by long division (see attached).
what expression is equivalent to this Expression?
(-5cd-4)(2cd2)2
Answer:
[tex]-40c^{2} d^{2} -32cd[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
-20c³ is the expression which is equivalent to (-5cd⁻⁴)(2cd²)².
To simplify the given expression, (-5cd⁻⁴)(2cd²)², we can apply the power of a product rule, which states that (ab)² is equal to a²b².
Let's break down the expression step by step:
(-5cd⁻⁴)(2cd²)²
First, let's square the expression (2cd²)²:
(2cd²)² = (2)²(c)²(d²)² = 4c²d⁴
Now, we substitute this result back into the original expression:
(-5cd⁻⁴)(4c²d⁴)
To simplify further, we can multiply the coefficients and combine the variables:
(-5)(4) = -20
(c)(c²) = c³
(d⁻⁴)(d⁴) = 1
Putting it all together, the expression (-5cd⁻⁴)(2cd²)² simplifies to -20c³.

is 11-2x the same as 2x-11
No they are not the same.
We can plug in x = 0 to get
11-2x = 11-2(0) = 11-0 = 11
2x-11 = 2(0)-11 = 0-11 = -11
We get the results 11 and -11 for the expressions 11-2x and 2x-11 respectively. Since we got different outputs, this is enough to show that the expressions are not the same. They would need to produce the same outputs for any given x value.
On a graph, y = 11-2x and y = 2x-11 are two different lines to show they are not the same expression.
note: if you plug in x = 11/2 = 5.5, then both outputs are the same; otherwise, you'll get different outputs.

Can someone explain probability with permutations and combinations and explain where they are applied?
Answer:
If the order doesn't matter then we have a combination, if the order do matter then we have a permutation. One could say that a permutation is an ordered combination. The number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time is determined by the following formula: P(n,r)=n!
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the probability of a combination, you will need to consider the number of favorable outcomes over the number of total outcomes. Combinations are used to calculate events where order does not matter. In this lesson, we will explore the connection between these two essential topics.
Answer:
combination : If the order of numbers or operations does not matter
Permutation : when the order of numbers matter ( common example most teachers use : a code of 4 numbers has to be in a certain order and the numbers are from 0 to 9 , how many permutation can you make if you use the number one time)
P=n!/(n-r)!
n! ( are number from 0-9 we have 10 numbers)
r is the number of digits in the code = 4
n!=10*9*8*7*6*5*4*2*1
(n-r)!=(10-4)!=6!=6*5*4*3*2*1
P=5040 ways ( if the order matter)
If the order does not matter
Combination C(n,r)=n!/(n-r)!r!
C(10,4)=(10*9*8*7*6*5*4*2*1)/[(6*5*4*3*2*1)(4*3*2*1)]

What is the length of the shortest altitude in a triangle, if the lengths of the sides are 24 cm, 25 cm, 7 cm?
Answer:
The shortest altitude is 6.72 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the side lengths are
24 cm, 25 cm, 7 cm
The area of a triangle =
[tex]A = \sqrt{s \cdot (s-a)\cdot (s-b)\cdot (s-c)}[/tex]
Where;
s = Half the perimeter = (24 + 25 + 7)/2 = 28
A = √((28×(28 - 24)×(28 - 25)×(28 - 7)) = 84 cm²
We note that 84/7 = 12
Therefore, the triangle is a right triangle with hypotenuse = 25, and legs, 24 and 7, the height of the triangle = 7
To find the shortest altitude, we utilize the formula for the area of the triangle A = 1/2 base × Altitude
Altitude = A/(1/2 ×base)
Therefore, the altitude is inversely proportional to the base, and to reduce the altitude, we increase the base as follows;
We set the base to 25 cm to get;
Area of the triangle A = 1/2 × base × Altitude
84 = 1/2 × 25 × Altitude
Altitude = 84/(1/2 × 25) = 6.72 cm
The shortest altitude = 6.72 cm.

If it takes 2/5 of an orange to make a glass of orange juice, how many oranges do you need to make 2 and a half glasses?
(1)
Compute 1/4th of the math class room as follows:
[tex]=700\times\frac{1}{4}\\=175[/tex]
Thus, 1/4th of the math class room is 175 m².
(2)
Compute 3/4th of the math class room as follows:
[tex]=700\times\frac{3}{4}\\=525[/tex]
Thus, 3/4th of the math class room is 525 m².
(3)
Compute 3/5th of half an hour as follows:
[tex]=30\times \frac{3}[5}\\=18[/tex]
Thus, 3/5th of half an hour is 18 minutes.
(4)
A square meter of wall required 4/7 liter of paint.
Then 2/5 of a square meter will require,
[tex]=\frac{4}{7}\times \frac{2}{5}\\\\=\frac{8}{35}[/tex]
Thus, 8/35 liter of paint will be used to pain /5 of a square meter of the wall.
(5)
1 glass of orange juice can be made using 2/5 of an orange.
Then 2 and half glass will require,
[tex]=\frac{2}{5}\times 2\frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{5}{2}\\\\=1[/tex]
Thus, 1 orange will be required to make 2 and half glass of orange juice.

The value of y for the given equation y - 3x = 13 is calculated to be y = 3x + 13.
Given that:
y - 3x = 13
It is required to find the value of y.
In order to find the value of y, the equation has to be solved in such a way that y has to be kept on one side.
Consider:
y - 3x = 13
Add 3x on both sides.
y - 3x + 3x = 13 + 3x
y = 13 + 3x
Hence, the value of y is 13 + 3x.

a positive number is 7 times another number if 3 is added to both the numbers then one of the new number becomes 5 by 2 times the other new number what are the numbers
Answer:
7 and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be a and b.
A positive number is 7 times another number:
a = 7bIf 3 is added to both the numbers then one of the new number becomes 5 by 2 times the other new number:
a+3 = 5/2 × (b +3)To solve this we substitute a with 7b in the second equation:
7b + 3 = 5/2 × (b +3) ⇒ multiplying both sides by 214b + 6 = 5b + 15 ⇒ collecting like terms14b - 5b = 15 - 69b = 9b = 1 ⇒ solved for bThen, finding a:
a= 7ba=7*1a= 7 ⇒ solved for aSo the numbers are 7 and 1
