What is the surfsce area of the prism with 12 cm 11 cm and 10,cm
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a rectangular prism is
A=2(xy+xz+yz). where x,y,z are its dimensions, in this case
A=2(12(11)+12(10)+11(10))
A=2(132+120+110)
A=2(362)
A=724 cm^2
Answer: 724cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is: 2(lw + hl + hw). Our units are 12, 11, and 10. So, the Length, Width, and Height are,
12 is the Length.
11 is the Width
10 is the Height.
Let's solve now. Our problem will be written like this,
2 · (11 × 12) + (10 × 12) + (10 × 11)
Let's solve.
1. Multiply 11 by 12.
11 × 12 = 132
2. Multiply 10 by 12.
10 × 12 = 120
3. Multiply 10 by 11.
10 × 11 = 110
4. Add up all the products.
132 + 120 + 110 = 362
5. Multiply 362 by 2.
362 × 2 = 724
Hence, 724 is the answer.

A certain type of aluminum screen has, an average, one flaw in a 100-foot roll. Assume the flaw distribution approximately follows the Poisson distribution. (a) Find the probability that a 100-foor roll has at most 2 flaws. (b) Suppose that I bought 10 200-foot rolls, find the probability that there are exactly 3 rolls that have no flaws in them. (c) Suppose that a store had many 200-foot rolls in storage, a clerk is doing inspections. What is the probability that the 15th roll he inspected was the 3rd one that have no flaws in it
Answer:
a) 0.9197 = 91.97% probability that a 100-foor roll has at most 2 flaws.
b) 0.1074 = 10.74% probability that there are exactly 3 rolls that have no flaws in them.
c) 0.0394 = 3.94% probability that the 15th roll he inspected was the 3rd one that have no flaws in it.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the Poisson and the Binomial distribution.
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
(a) Find the probability that a 100-foor roll has at most 2 flaws.
A certain type of aluminum screen has, an average, one flaw in a 100-foot roll, which means that [tex]\mu = 1[/tex]. Only one roll means that the Poisson distribution is used.
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1}*1^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.3679[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-1}*1^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.3679[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1}*1^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.1839[/tex]
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.3679 + 0.3679 + 0.1839 = 0.9197[/tex]
0.9197 = 91.97% probability that a 100-foor roll has at most 2 flaws.
(b) Suppose that I bought 10 200-foot rolls, find the probability that there are exactly 3 rolls that have no flaws in them.
Two parts.
Probability that a single 200-foot roll has no flaw.
This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex], Poisson(single 200-foot roll) when [tex]\mu = \frac{200*1}{100} = 2[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353[/tex]
0.1353 probability that a single 200-foot roll has no flaw.
Probability that on 10 200-foot rolls, 3 have no flaws.
Multiple 200-foot rolls means that we use the binomial distribution.
0.1353 probability that a single 200-foot roll has no flaw means that [tex]p = 0.1353[/tex]
10 200-foot rolls means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
We want [tex]P(X = 3)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1353)^{3}.(0.8647)^{7} = 0.1074[/tex]
0.1074 = 10.74% probability that there are exactly 3 rolls that have no flaws in them.
(c) What is the probability that the 15th roll he inspected was the 3rd one that have no flaws in it.
0.1353 probability that a single 200-foot roll has no flaw means that [tex]p = 0.1353[/tex]
2 with flaws in the first 14, which is [tex]P(X = 2)[/tex] when [tex]n = 14[/tex]
The 15th has no flaw, with probability of 0.1353. So
[tex]P = 0.1353*P(X = 2) = 0.1353*(C_{14,2}.(0.1353)^{2}.(0.8647)^{12}) = 0.1353*0.2911 = 0.0394[/tex]
0.0394 = 3.94% probability that the 15th roll he inspected was the 3rd one that have no flaws in it

Uniforms are sold into packages of 8. The store's 127 employees will be given 3 uniforms. How many packages will the store need order?
Answer:
48 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello There!
The first step is to find out how many uniforms they need to do so we multiply 127 and 3
3x127=381
Then we divide it by 8 ( because that's how many uniforms are sold in one package.)
381/8=47.625
you cannot have a 6th of a package so we just round to the nearest whole
so we can conclude that they will need 48 packages

Answer:
y=8x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is a positive 8 because the line is going upwards. Slope equals rise over run. The rise is 8 units, and the run is 1 positive unit since it is going to the right. So 8/1 is 1. There's a +1 in the equation because the y-intercept is at positive 1. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis (vertical line). Here, the line crosses it at 1.

Stephen and Chelsea want to increase the volume of this prism by 72 cubic centimeters. Chelsea wants to add eight layers, and Stephen says they only need to add four layers. Their teacher tells them they are both correct. Explain how this is possible.
Step-by-step explanation:
2.
- the volume of initial prism is 3*3*6=54 cm³;
- the number of cubics of the requested 72 cm³ is 72;
- 'Chelsea wants to add eight layers' means 72=3*3*8 cubics, then one layer in this case consists of 3x3 cubics;
- 'Stephen says they only need to add four layers' means 72=4*3*6 cubics, then one layer in this case consists of 3x6 cubics.
3.
- the volume of initial prism is 4*4*1=16 in³; it means one layer is 16 inches³;
- according to the requirement 3 layers is 16*3=48 in³; three times 16.
- according to the requirement 5 layers is 16*5=80 in³; five times 16.
- according to the requirement 7 layers is 16*7=112 in³; seven times 16.
What is the volume of a cylinder, in cubic inches, with a height of 13 inches and a
base diameter of 12 inches? Round to the nearest tenths place
Answer:
Rounded to the nearest integer, the volume of the cylinder is 5,878 cubic inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula Phi x Radius ^ 2 x Height, and knowing that the cylinder in question has a height of 13 inches and a base diameter of 12 inches, to calculate said volume the following calculation must be done:
Phi x (12x12) x 13 = X
Phi x 144 x 13 = X
Phi x 1,872 = X
3.14 x 1,872 = X
5,878.08 = X
Thus, rounded to the nearest integer, the volume of the cylinder is 5,878 cubic inches.
