there's a width of 8 in., a length of 20 in., and a height of 12 in.
a) what is the longest poster you could fit in the box? express your answer to the nearest tenth of an inch.
b) explain why you can fit only one maximum-length poster in the box, but you can fit multiple 21.5-inch posters in the same box.
Answer:
a.
Approximately [tex]24.7\; \rm in[/tex].
b.
While there are three diagonals in a box (a rectangular prism,) all three diagonals goes through the same point- the centroid of this box.
For a maximum-length poster to fit in this box, it would have to be on one of the main diagonals of this box. Hence, any maximum-length poster that fits in this box would go through the centroid of this box.
It's not possible to force more than one posters to go through the same point (i.e., the centroid) in space. Hence, it would not be possible to fit a second maximum-length poster into this box.
This argument does not apply to [tex]21.5\; \rm in[/tex] posters. These posters are shorter than the diagonal of this box; they could fit inside the box without having to go through a particular point in space.
Step-by-step explanation:
The longest poster that could be fit into this box (a rectangular prism) would be as long as the longest line segment in this box. That line segment would be one of the three diagonals of this box.
Apply the Pythagorean theorem twice to find the length of that diagonal.
Start by finding calculating the diagonal of the base of this box. The base of this box is a rectangle with width [tex]8\; \rm in[/tex] and length [tex]10\; \rm in[/tex]. The length of its diagonal would be [tex]\sqrt{8^2 + 10^2}[/tex] inches.
Combine that with the height of this box to find the length of the diagonal of this box.
[tex]\begin{aligned}& \sqrt{{\left(\sqrt{8^2 + 10^2}\right)}^2 + 12^2 \\ &= \sqrt{8^2 + 10^2 + 12^2} \\ &\approx 24.7 \end{aligned}[/tex].

Write an explicit formula an, the nth term of the sequence 27,-3,-33,-63
Answer:
The nth term is 27 - 30(n-1) or can be simplified to 57 - 30n.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an arithmetic sequence (ie. each term equals the previous term with a constant value added (or subtracted from it)
T1 = 27
T2 = -3 = T1 - 30 = 27 - 30
T3 = -33 = T2 -30 = 27 -30 - 30=27-30X(2)
T4= -63 = T3 - 30 =27-30X(2)-30=27-30X(3)
In general, the nth term of this sequence:
S(n) = 27 - 30X(n-1)

Between which x-values and y-values does the cluster lie?
Answer:
Here is the picture
Step-by-step explanation:
The number lies between x-values 4 and 6 and y-values 6 and 9.
What are coordinates?Coordinates are a pair of integers (Cartesian coordinates), or occasionally a letter and a number, that identify a certain place on a grid, often referred to as a coordinate plane.
Given that scatter plot lies in quadrant 1 of a coordinate plane, and the 14 points are plotted in the first quadrant.
We need to find the range of x and y values for this scatter plot.
The x values of the 14 points are given as;
2, 4, 4,1, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9.5, 9.5
The y values of the 14 points are given as;
5, 6, 9, 7.2, 6, 6.8, 8, 9, 7, 8.5, 10, 10.5, 9.5, 11.4
We can conclude that that most of the points are clustered between x-values 4 and 6 and y-values 6 and 9.
Therefore, the points are clustered between the x-values 4 and 6 and y-values 6 and 9.

Answer:
[tex](a)\ Pr = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]
[tex](b)\ Pr = \frac{9}{20}[/tex]
[tex](c)\ E(Orange) = 100[/tex]
[tex](d)\ E(Orange) = 62.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving (a): Theoretical probability of green or yellow
Here, we consider the spinner itself
From the attached image, we have:
[tex]n= 5[/tex] --- i.e. 5 sections
[tex]Yellow = 1[/tex]
[tex]Green = 1[/tex]
So, the probability is:
[tex]Pr = P(Yellow)\ or\ P(Green)[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{Yellow}{n} + \frac{Green}{n}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Take LCM
[tex]Pr = \frac{1+1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Solving (b): Experimental probability of green or yellow
Here, we consider the result of the experiment
From the attached image, we have:
[tex]n= 40[/tex] --- i.e. 40 spins
[tex]Yellow = 12[/tex]
[tex]Green = 6[/tex]
So, the probability is:
[tex]Pr = P(Yellow)\ or\ P(Green)[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{Yellow}{n} + \frac{Green}{n}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{12}{40} + \frac{6}{40}[/tex]
Take LCM
[tex]Pr = \frac{12+6}{40}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{18}{40}[/tex]
Simplify
[tex]Pr = \frac{9}{20}[/tex]
Solving (c): Expectation of orange outcomes in a spin of 500 times, theoretically.
Here, we consider the spinner itself
From the attached image, we have:
[tex]n= 5[/tex] --- i.e. 5 sections
[tex]Orange = 1[/tex]
So, the probability of having an outcome of orange in 1 spin is:
[tex]Pr = P(Orange)[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{Orange}{n}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
In 500 spins, the expectation is:
[tex]E(Orange) = Pr * 500[/tex]
[tex]E(Orange) = \frac{1}{5} * 500[/tex]
[tex]E(Orange) = 100[/tex]
Solving (c): Expectation of orange outcomes in a spin of 500 times, base on experiments.
Here, we consider the spinner itself
From the attached image, we have:
[tex]n= 40[/tex] --- i.e. 40 spins
[tex]Orange = 5[/tex]
So, the probability of having an outcome of orange is:
[tex]Pr = P(Orange)[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{Orange}{n}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{5}{40}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]
In 500 spins, the expectation is:
[tex]E(Orange) = Pr * 500[/tex]
[tex]E(Orange) = \frac{1}{8} * 500[/tex]
[tex]E(Orange) = 62.5[/tex]

Use the quadratic formula to solve x2 – 3x - 2 = 0.
Answer:
x = 2 , 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2.5 or 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic formula is [tex]x = -b +/- \frac{\sqrt{b^2 + 4ac}}{2a}[/tex] .
a, b, and c are determined by the terms in the formula ax^2 + bx + c
They gave you the equation x^2 - 3x - 2, which fits that formula. a is 1, b is -3, and c is -2. So plug those values into the equation:
[tex]x = -(-3) +/- \frac{\sqrt{(-3)^2 + 4(1)(-2)}}{2(1)}[/tex]
[tex]x = 3 +/- \frac{\sqrt{9 -8}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x = 3 +/- \frac{\sqrt{1}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x = 3 +/- \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
So x is 3 plus or minus -1/2. 3 plus -1/2 is 2.5
3 minus -1/2 is 3.5
So the 2 possible x values are 2.5 and 3.5.
A manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens. The manufacturer makes as many packs as possible.
How many packs of pens does the manufacturer make, and how many pens are left over?
Answer:
1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens, and the manufacturer makes as many packs as possible, to determine how many packs of pens does the manufacturer make, and how many pens are left over, the following must be done calculation:
5.634 / 4 = X
1,408.5 = X
5,634 - (1,408 x 4) = X
5.634 - 5.632 = X
2 = X
Therefore, 1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.
Answer: 1,408 packs can be made and 2 will be left out

The makers of MaxGrow want to ensure customers that their product will work under a wide variety of conditions such as a variety of watering conditions (no added water or watering daily) and how much fertilizer was used (no fertilizer, half fertilizer, or full fertilizer). The researchers randomly choose which group each tomato plant will be assigned to. At the end of the experiment, the number of tomatoes picked from each tomato plant is recorded.
a. Identify the subjects.
b. Explanatory variables
c. Treatments
d. Response variable
Answer:
Subject : Tomato plant
Explanatory variables : Watering condition ; Fertilizer addition
Treatment : daily watering ; half fertilizer ; full fertilizer
Response variable = Number of tomato picked
Step-by-step explanation:
Subjects are the individuals, animals or plants upon which treatment is applied. The subject here are the tomato plants
The Explanatory variables are the independent variables upon which we want base the variation of the dependent variable. The Independent variables are the watering condition a d the amount of fertilizer added.
Treatment : These are the actual changes made or applied on the subject, they include, daily watering, full or half fertilizer application.
Response variable : The number of tomatoes picked. This is also called the dependent variable, it is the outcome which may be due to the effect of the independent variable.
What is the area of this square?
A= 12
B= 48
C= 72
D= 144
No links, docs, files, drives etc
I will mark the correct answer brainlyest
You earn many points
========================================================
Explanation:
A square has all four sides that are the same length. So all four sides are 12 cm
area = side*side = 12*12 = 144 cm^2
Or you could say
area = (side)^2 = (12)^2 = 144 cm^2
Squaring a number is the same as multiplying it by itself. Hence the name "square" refers to a side length pairing up with its corresponding area value.
---------
Side note: The perimeter is 4*(side) = 4*12 = 48 cm. It's possible that choice B is put in there as a trick answer.
B
If you do 4x12 you will end up with 48

Two gamblers, call them Gambler A and Gambler B flip a coin repeatedly. The coin is unfair and comes up heads 2/3 of the time. Gambler A wins one dollar from Gambler B, when a head is tossed. Conversely Gambler B wins one dollar from Gambler A when a tail is tossed. The coin tosses are independent. The game ends when one of the gamblers runs out of money. There are 5 dollars in the pot. Determine the probability that Gambler A wins the game if he starts with I dollars. Here I
Answer:
≈ 0.52
Step-by-step explanation:
P( head ) = 2/3 , P( tail ) = 1/3
when a head is tossed ; Gambler A wins $1
when a tail is tossed : Gambler B wins $1
Determine the P( Gambler A wins the game ) if he starts with I dollars
Assuming I = $1
n = 5
p ( head ) = P( winning ) = 0.66
p( losing ) = 0.33
applying the conditional probability in Markov which is ;
Pₓ = pPₓ₊₁ + (1 - p) Pₓ₋₁
P( 1) = 0.66P₂ + 0.33P₀
resolving the above using with Markov probability
P( 1 ) = 0.51613
hence the probability of Gambler A winning the game if he starts with $1
≈ 0.52
An additional amount of money added to borrowed money only on principal is what kind
of interest?
-Interest rate
-Terms
-Simple Interest
-Compound interest
Answer:
simple interest
Step-by-step explanation:
An additional amount of money added to borrowed money only on the principal could be simple interest.
How to calculate a simple interest amount?If the initial amount (also called as principal amount) is P, and the interest rate is R% annually, and it is left for T years for that simple interest, then the interest amount earned is given by:
[tex]I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}[/tex]
Since, the initial amount (also called as principal amount) is P, and the interest rate is R% per unit of time, it is left for T unit of time for that compound interest.
we can conclude that the additional amount of money added to borrowed money only on principal is simple interest.
