a catering company needs 8.75 lb of shrimp for a small party. they buy lb of jumbo shrimp,3 2 3 lb of medium-sized shrimp, and some mini-shrimp. how many pounds of mini-shrimp do they2 5 8 buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Finally, we have [tex]2\frac{11}{24}[/tex] lbs of mini shrimps.

Given that;

A catering company needs 8.75 lbs of shrimp for a small party. they buy [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] lbs of jumbo shrimps, [tex]2\frac{5}{8}[/tex] lbs of medium-sized shrimps, and some mini-shrimps.

The total of 8.75th is changed as [tex]8\frac{3}{4}th\\[/tex]

Sum of  [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] +  [tex]2\frac{5}{8}[/tex] this is bought by the company.

So, to purchase the remaining  [tex]8\frac{3}{4}th\\[/tex] - [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] - [tex]2\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

We use a common denominator of 24 for the fraction parts.

Change [tex]8\frac{3}{4}[/tex] as [tex]8\frac{18}{24}[/tex]

Similarly, convert;

[tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] as [tex]3\frac{16}{24}[/tex]

[tex]2\frac{5}{8}[/tex] as [tex]2\frac{15}{24}[/tex]

By solving all the above conversions, we get;

[tex]\frac{42-16-15}{24}[/tex] = 11/24

Considering all the factors together we have [tex]2\frac{11}{24}[/tex] lbs of mini shrimps.

The identification of a relationship using

multiplication and the prediction of the value of one

quantity based on the value of another.

Answers

Utilizing multiplication to find relationships and predicting that value of one  "Linear regression" is a quantity derived from the value of another.

Define the term Linear regression?

The relationship in between magnitude of one parameter and that of a second is modeled by simple linear regression.

For instance, as X rises, Y also increases. or Y declines as X rises. 1 Regression defines the nature of the link, whereas correlation evaluates the strength of such a linking between two variables.Simple linear regression calculates the precise amount by which Y will alter when X alters by a specific amount. The variables X and Y remain interchangeable with the correlation coefficient. Regression uses a linear relationship, or a line, to try and predict any Y variable from the X variable:Y = b 0 + b 1 X.

Thus, finding correlations via multiplication and assuming that the value of one "Linear regression" is a number obtained as from value of another

the product of 180 and the positive integer n is a perfect cubic number. what is the least possible value of n?

Answers

The least possible value of n, where the product of 180 and the positive integer n is a perfect cubic number is 150.

so, by the question,

n×180 is a perfect cube

on the prime factorization of 180, we get

180 = 2²×3²×5

so the number should be

n = 2 × 3 × 5² =150

when we multiply both of them we get

180×n = (2²×3²×5)×(2 × 3 × 5²)

using a z-table like the one found in lectures, or a z-score calculator, approximately what is the probability of randomly drawing a value greater than 3.0 from a z-distribution? question 3 options: .9995

Answers

The probability of randomly drawing a value greater than 3.0 from a z-distribution is 0.0013

What does z-score mean?

The Z-score, commonly referred to as the standard score, expresses how far away from the mean an object is.

An element that is below the mean is indicated by a z-score that is less than 0.

An element bigger than the mean is indicated by a z-score greater than 0.

An element that is equal to the mean is represented by a z-score of 0.

P(Z > a) = 1-P(Z<a)

Let's say we want to know, for instance, the likelihood that a z-score will be higher than 3.00.

We learn from the table, that

P(Z < 3.00) = 0.9987.

Therefore,

P(Z > 3.00) = 1 - P(Z < 3.00)

= 1 - 0.9987

= 0.0013.

Therefore, the probability of randomly drawing a value greater than 3.0 from a z-distribution is 0.0013

William leaves work at 16:00. He drives 36 kilometres from work to home at an average speed of 48 km/h. What time does William arrive home?
answer using the 24 hour clock.​

Answers

William will arrive home at 16:45, it will take 45 min to reach home.

Given, that William leaves work at 16:00

Distance from work to home is 36 kilometres

Also, he drives at an average speed of 48 km/hr

Now, using distance-speed relation to find the time

So, as we know Distance = Speed × Time

On putting the values of distance and speed, we get

36 km = 48 km/hr × Time

On dividing both the sides by 48, we get

36/48 = (48×Time)/48

36/48 = Time

Time = 0.75

Hence, he will take 0.75 hr to reach home.

0.75 hr ≈ 45 minutes

0.75 hr = 0.75 × 60 = 45 minutes

Describe probability?

The probability informs us of the likelihood that an event will occur. It is necessary for the likelihood to fall between 0 and 1. The likelihood of success is 1, whereas the probability of failure is 0.

Given, that the market research  company has a history of having a 44% response rate for its telephone surveys.

Therefore, p=44%=0.44=μ

n=400

p=150/400

p=0.375

The standard deviation is then equal to,

σ=√(p(1-p))/n

σ=√(0.44(1-0.44))/400

σ=√(0.44×0.56)/400

σ=0.025

Using the z-table, the values are as follows:

z=(p-μ)/σ

z=(0.375-0.44)/0.025

z=-2.6

p(p>0.375)
