Abigail is using blocks to build a tower. The blocks are 3 inches, 4 inches, and 8 inches tall. She has stack 3 blocks. How many different heights are possible for the tower?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  10

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible tower heights using 3 blocks are ...

  {9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 19, 20, 24}

There are 10 different heights possible.

_____

Each block can be used 1, 2, or 3 times.

Using a 3 in block as the smallest, we have ...

  3+3+3 = 9

  3+3+4 = 10

  3+3+8 = 14

  3+4+4 = 11

  3+4+8 = 15

  3+8+8 = 19

Using a 4-in block as the smallest, we have ...

  4+4+4 =12

  4+4+8 = 16

  4+8+8 = 20

And ...

  8+8+8 = 24

Find z such that 3.8% of the standard normal curve lies to the left of z. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

z = 1.77.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X, which is also the area of the normal curve to the left of Z. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Find z such that 3.8% of the standard normal curve lies to the left of z

Thus, z with a z-score of 0.038. Looking at the z-table, this is z = 1.77.

find the smallest number by which 2925 should be divided to be a perfect square​

identify a transformation of a function f(x)=x^2 by observing the equation of the function g(x)=5(x)^2

Answers

Answer:

Thus the function g is the function f stretched vertically by a factor 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication of a function by a constant:

When a function is multiplied by a constant a > 1, the function is stretched vertically by a factor of 5.

In this question:

f(x) = x^2

g(x) = 5x^2

Thus the function g is the function f stretched vertically by a factor 5.

Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (0, 1) and a directrix of y = -1. ​

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is y = x²/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given focus of the parabola = (0, 1)

The directrix of the parabola is y = -1

A form of the equation of a parabola is presented as follows;

(x - h)² = 4·p·(y - k)

We note that the equation of the directrix is y = k - p

The focus = (h, k + p)

Therefore, by comparison, we have;

k + p = 1...(1)

k - p = -1...(2)

h = 0...(3)

Adding equation (1) to equation (2) gives;

On the left hand side of the addition, we have;

k + p + (k - p) = k + k + p - p = 2·k

On the right hand side of the addition, we have;

1 + -1 = 0

Equating both sides, gives;

2·k = 0

∴ k = 0/2 = 0

From equation (1)

k + p = 0 + 1 = 1

∴ p = 1

Plugging in the values of the variables, 'h', 'k', and 'p' into the equation of the parabola, (x - h)² = 4·p·(y - k), gives;

(x - 0)² = 4 × 1 × (y - 0)

∴ x² = 4·y

The general form of the equation of the parabola, y = a·x² + b·x + c, is therefore;

y = x²/4.

Chris was given 1/3 of the 84 cookies in the cookie jar. He ate 3/4 of the cookies that he was given. How many cookies did Chris eat?

Answers

Answer:

21 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

First we know that Chris was given a third of 84 cookies so we can start working on this problem by figuring out what a third of 84 is. We can do this by multiplying 84 by 1/3 or just dividing by 3, which gives us: 84/3 = 28

So now we know that Chris was given 28 cookies, we can figure out what 3/4 of that is to work out how many cookies he ate. 28 x (3/4) = 21 cookies.

Chris ate 21 cookies.

Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW

Three friends, Cleopatra, Dalila, and ebony fo shopping. The money they have each is in the ratio

Cleopatra : Dalila : Ebony =

5 : 7 : 8

Cleopatra has $15.

A) How many dollars do they have in total?

B) Dalila spends 12$ on a hat, how many dollars does she have left?

A)

Total ratio=(5 +7 +8)= 20

Cleopatra has $15.

Let X = total money

Ratio of Cleopatra= 5/20 ×X=15

5X /20 = 15

5X= (15×20)

X= $60

They have $60 in total

B) ratio of Dalila= 7/20 × 60 = $21

But 12$ was spent by Dalila on a hat

Then Dalila will have ($21 - 12$) Left

= $9

A printer has a contract to print 100,000 posters for a political candidate. He can run the posters by using any number of plates from 1 to 30 on his press. If he uses x metal plates, they will produce x copies of the poster with each impression of the press. The metal plates cost $20.00 to prepare, and it costs $125.00 per hour to run the press. If the press can make 1000 impressions per hour, how many metal plates should the printer make to minimize costs

Answers

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Numbers of posters that can be printed in an hour = no of impression/hour × no of plate utilized in each impression.

= 1000x

Thus, the required number of hours it will take can be computed as:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{100000}{1000x} \\ \\ =\dfrac{100}{x}[/tex]

cost per hour = 125

If each plate costs $20 to make, then the total number of plate will equal to 40x

The total cost can be computed as:

[tex]C(x) = (\dfrac{100}{x}) \times 125 + 20 x --- (1)[/tex]

[tex]C'(x) = (-\dfrac{12500}{x^2}) + 20 --- (2)[/tex]

At C'(x) = 0

[tex]\dfrac{12500}{x^2} = 20[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{12500}{20} = x^2[/tex]

[tex]x^2= 625[/tex]

[tex]x = \sqrt{625}[/tex]

x = 25

[tex]C'' (x) = -12500 \times \dfrac{-2}{x^3} +0[/tex]

[tex]C'' (x) = \dfrac{25000}{x^3}[/tex]

where; x = 25

[tex]C'' (x) = \dfrac{25000}{25^3}[/tex]

C''(x) = 1.6

Thus, at x = 25, C'' > 0

As such, to minimize the cost, the printer needs to make 25 metal plates.

Answer:

Given function:

This is the third degree polynomial, so it has total 3 roots.

Lets factor it and find the roots:

x³ + x² - 8x - 6 = x³ + 3x² - 2x² - 6x - 2x - 6 = x²(x + 3) - 2x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3) = (x + 3)(x² - 2x - 2) = (x + 3)(x² - 2x + 1 - 3) = (x + 3)((x - 1)² - 3) = (x + 3)(x - 1 + √3)(x - 1 - √3)

The roots are:

x = -3x = 1 - √3x = 1 + √3

It has highest degree 3 so 3 roots

She believes that the number of customers served on weekdays follows a normal distribution. Construct the 99% confidence interval for the average number of customers served on weekdays.

Answers

Answer:

(121.576 ; 273.424)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

175, 125, 180, 220, 240, 245

We can calculate the mean and standard deviation

Mean = Σx/ n = 1185 / 6 = 197.5

Standard deviation = 46.125 (calculator)

The confidence interval :

Mean ± margin of error

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Tcritical at 99%, df = n - 1 ; 6 - 1 = 5

Tcritical = 4.032

Margin of Error = 4.032 * 46.125/√6

Margin of error = 75.924

Confidence interval :

197.5 ± 75.924

Lower boundary = 197.5 - 75.924 = 121.576

Upper boundary = 197.5 + 75.924 = 273.424

(121.576 ; 273.424)
