Answer:

960 individuals

Detailed explanation:

Given that each side of the basketball arena measures 20 ft by 30 ft, the area for one side would be calculated as 20ft * 30ft = 600ft².

As the arena’s four sides are all filled with people, the cumulative area will be 4*600 = 2400ft²

Each person occupies an area of 2.5ft², therefore, the total number of individuals present in the arena can be determined by dividing the total area encompassed by the four sides by the area each person occupies.

Total number of individuals in the arena = area of all four sides divided by area occupied by each person.

Total number of individuals in the arena = 2400/2.5

Thus, the result is 960 people.

Inessa [12570]

Answer:

La conclusión sobre p utilizando una desigualdad de valor absoluto es

0.325 < p < 0.375

Explicación paso a paso:

Según el enunciado, nos informan que

La proporción de la muestra es \r p = 0.35

El margen de error es E = 0.025

El intervalo de confianza se representa matemáticamente como

\r p -E < p < \r p +E

=> 0.35 - 0.025 < p < 0.35 + 0.025

=> 0.325 < p < 0.375

Fruit juice comes in two types of containers. The first is a rectangular prism that is 9 inches tall and has a rectangular base
babunello [11817]

The volume of a rectangular prism:

V_p=Bh\\\\B=wl\\\\w=2\ in;\ l=3\ in;\ h=9\ in

insert

V_p=2\cdot3\cdot9=54\ in^3

The volume of a cylinder:

V_c=\pi r^2h\\\\r=1.5\ in;\ h=8\ in

insert:

V_c=\pi\cdot(1.5)^2\cdot8=\pi\cdot2.25\cdot8=18\pi\ in^3\approx18\cdot3.14=56.52\ in^3

Response: C. The cylinder possesses a larger volume.

As a part-time contractor, you want to test a new cement mixture for a project. You need 2 34 wheelbarrows of sand to make 8 whe
zzz [12365]

Answer: He will require 10.07 cubic feet of sand for the wheelbarrows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

the ratio of wheelbarrows filled with sand to those filled with concrete is expressed as

2\dfrac{3}{4}:8\\\\=\dfrac{11}{4}:8\\\\=11:32

The volume of concrete in wheelbarrows is 248 cubic feet.

Then the volume of sand in wheelbarrows can be found as

(\dfrac{11}{32})^3=\dfrac{x}{248}\\\\\dfrac{1331\times 248}{32^3}=x\\\\10.07=x

Therefore, he will require 10.07 cubic feet of sand for the wheelbarrows.

Value of sec Square 26 degrees - cot square 64 degrees is
Leona [12618]

Answer:

The value equals 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the expression

sec^{2}(26\°)-cot^2(64\°)

Recall that

cot^2(64\°)=\frac{cos^2(64\°)}{sin^2(64\°)}

sec^{2}(26\°)=\frac{1}{cos^2(26\°)}

For two complementary angles A and B (where A+B=90°),

the identity is

cos(A) = sin(B)

Here, 26° and 64° are complementary angles, so

\frac{1}{cos^2(26\°)}=\frac{1}{sin^2(64\°)}

Substituting values,

\frac{1}{sin^2(64\°)}-\frac{cos^2(64\°)}{sin^2(64\°)}

\frac{1-cos^2(64\°)}{sin^2(64\°)}

From this, we find

1-cos^2(64\°)=sin^2(64\°)

By substitution,

\frac{sin^2(64\°)}{sin^2(64\°)}=1

We flip a fair coin five times. For every heads you pay me $1 and for every tails I pay you $1. Let X denote the my net winning
AnnZ [12381]
The probability mass function of X equals 0.03. To clarify:
Assuming the requirement for winning is one side as heads and the opposing side as tails, the likelihood of both outcomes is 1/2 or 0.5. Thus, we can construct a graph to calculate all probabilities related to achieving heads. In this context, X indicates the dollar amounts won during the coin flips, while the probability of heads reflects the likelihood of each outcome and the potential winnings. The chances of winning decrease as the winning amount rises.
