Step-by-step explanation:

The Mississippi River is about 4,000 kilometers long. An M&M is about 1 centimeter long. There are 100 centimeters in a meter, and 1,000 meters in a kilometer. Estimate how many M&Ms it would take to measure the length of the Mississippi River

Answers

To be able to determine the number of M&Ms that are needed in order to measure the length of Mississippi River, we convert the units to a common one. For this purpose, we convert kilometers to centimeter such that,
 
Length of Mississippi River = (4000 km)(1000 m/1 km)(100 cm/1 m)
                       = 400,000,000 cm

Since there are 400,000,000 cm in the entire length of the river, the answer would also be 400,000,000. 

To measure the approximately 4,000 km long Mississippi River with M&Ms, we will need about 400,000,000 M&Ms, as there are 100 cm in a meter and 1,000 m in a km.

The question involves estimating the length of the Mississippi River using the size of M&Ms as a unit of measurement. Since the river is about 4,000 kilometers long and the standard unit of length in the SI system is the meter, we need to convert kilometers to centimeters to match the size of an M&M, which is about 1 centimeter long. There are 100 centimeters in a meter, and 1,000 meters in a kilometer. Therefore, we have:

Convert kilometers to meters: 4,000 km x 1,000 m/km = 4,000,000 m.Convert meters to centimeters: 4,000,000 m x 100 cm/m = 400,000,000 cm.

Now, since each M&M is 1 centimeter, the number of M&Ms needed to measure the length of the Mississippi River is equal to the total number of centimeters:

400,000,000 M&Ms would be required to measure the approximate length of the Mississippi River.

What happens to the arrangement of water molecules as ice melts?
A. Molecules gain enough energy to escape as vapor.
B. Molecules release enough energy to escape as vapor.
C. Molecules release enough energy to move from their fixed positions.
D. Molecules gain enough energy to move from their fixed positions.

Answers

D. Molecules gain energy in the endothermic process of melting. The phase change from solid to liquid consumes energy, cooling the atmosphere around it in excess of the cooling that occurs as ice warms. This also causes the ice to maintain a temperature at or very near 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) as it melts.

The table shows the amount that each person spend on snacks, games, and souvenirs the las time they went to the carnival.

Sinea- snacks $5/ games $8/ souvenirs $12

Ren- snacks $10/ games $8/ souvenirs $20


Suppose Sinea and Ren each spend $40 on snacks, and each person spends money using the same ratios as on their last trip. Who spends more on souvenirs? Explain

Answers

Sinea:

Last trip: snacks $5/ games $8/ souvenirs $12

If she spends $ 40 on snacks =>

40/5 = 8

=> multiply the three number times 8 =>

5*8 / 8*8 / 12*8 = 40 / 64 / 96 and that adds up: 40 + 64 + 96 = 164

Ren

Last trip: snacks $10/ games $8/ souvenirs $20

If he spends $ 40 on snacks => 40 / 10 = 4

=> 10*4 / 8*4 / 20*4 = 40 / 32 / 80.

That adds up 40 + 32 + 80 = 152

So, Sinea spends more than Ren: 164 vs 152


the slope of the line that passes through the points (-6,w) and (-10,4) is 1/8. what is the value of w

Answers

Use the point-slope formula for the eqn of a str line:

y-k = m(x-h), where (h,k) is any point on the line.

Suppose we first focus on the given point (-10,4).  Let (h,k) = (-10,4).

Then  y-k = m(x-h) becomes    y-4 = m(x-[-10])

The other point is (-6,w), where w is the unknown we must determine.

w-4 = (1/8)(-6+10).  Find w:
 
Mult both sides by 8 to remove the fraction 1/8:

8w-32 = -6 + 10 = 4.  Then 8w = 32+4 = 36.  w = 36/8 = 4.5, or 9/2 (ans.)

 

The value of 'w' using the given slope is [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Given :

the slope of the line that passes through the points (-6,w) and (-10,4) is 1/8

apply slope formula

[tex]slope =\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Substitute the values given in the points and make it equal to 1/8

[tex]slope =\frac{4-w}{-10+6}=\frac{1}{8} \\\frac{4-w}{-4}=\frac{1}{8}\\(4-w)(8)=-4(1)\\32-8w=-4\\-8w=-4-32\\-8=-36[/tex]

Divide both sides by -8

[tex]w=\frac{-36}{-8} =\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

The value of 'w' is [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

An m-bit password is required to access a system. a hacker systematically works through all possible m-bit patterns. let x be the number of patterns tested until the correct password is found. find the conditional pmf of x given that the password has not been found after k tries

Answers

Final answer:

The conditional pmf of x, the number of patterns tested until the correct m-bit password is found, given that the password has not been found after k tries, is uniformly distributed with 1/(2^m - k) for x = k+1, k+2, ..., 2^m.

Explanation:

The question deals with the topic of probability and specifically centers around the concept of a conditional probability mass function (pmf). Given that an m-bit password is systematically being guessed by a hacker and has not been found after k attempts, we need to find the conditional pmf of x, where x is the number of patterns tested until the password is found.

Since the password has not been guessed within the first k tries, the conditional probability is based on the remaining 2m - k possibilities. The distribution of x will be uniform because each subsequent attempt has an equal probability of being correct. The conditional pmf of x given that the password was not found after k tries is 1/(2m - k) for x = k+1, k+2, ..., 2m.

Answers

they tricked me into signing into this site to get the answer, oonly to find out they didnt have it answered, click b8

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the statement is False, thus the correct option is b.

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X.The area on the tail beyond z is the proportion that is above z, that is, 1 subtracted by the p-value of z.

For this problem, z = 0.3 has a p-value of 0.6554.

1 - 0.6554 = 0.3446

The proportion in the tail beyond z = 0.30 is p = 0.3446, thus, the statement is False.

Engineers are designing a box-shaped aquarium with a square bottom and an open top. The aquarium must hold 256 ft^3 of water. What dimensions should they use to create an acceptable aquarium with the least amount of glass?

Answers

This is a calculus problem (in optimization).  Let the aquarium dimensions be L, W and H.  Then L*W*H = 256 ft^3.  But W=L here, so   W^2*H = 256 ft^3.

Write an expression for the area of the aquarium's glass sides and bottom.

                                                       256 ft^3                             256 ft^3
A= W^2 + 4(W*H) = W^2 + 4*W*(------------- ) = W^2 + 4*-------------------
                                                          W^2                                      W

So now we have A(W), the area as a function of W alone.

We want to minimize this area.  To do this, differentiate A(W) with respect to W and set the result = to 0.  We want to determine the "critical numbers."

dA/dW = 2W - 1024*W^(-2) = 0
                        1024
Then 2W = ---------------
                       W^2

2W^3 = 1024, so W^3 = 512, and  W = third root of 512 = 8

If W = 8 ft, then L = 8 ft also.     Since  L*W*H = 256 ft^3,

L*W*H = 256 ft^3   = (8 ft)^2*H = 256 ft^3.  Then H = 4

The acquarium dimensions are 8 by 8 by 4 feet.  This keeps the area of the aquarium to a minimum.

To solve the problem we must know about the volume and the surface area of cuboids.

The length of the aquarium is 4, and the width of the aquarium is 8.

Given to us

The aquarium must hold 256 ft^3 of water.

We know that the base of the aquarium should be a square, therefore, the length and the breadth of the aquarium will be the same.

Volume of the Aquarium

Length x breadth x height = 256 ft³

Length x Length x height = 256 ft³

Length ² x height = 256 ft³

[tex]L^2\times H = 256\\\\H = \dfrac{256}{L^2}[/tex]

Surface Area of the Aquarium

Surface Area of the Aquarium

= Area of the base + (4 x Area of the 4 sides)

[tex]= L^2 + 4(L\times H)[/tex]

Substituting the value of H,

[tex]= L^2 + 4L(\dfrac{256}{L^2})[/tex]

Length of the Aquarium

Let the surface area be a function of L, therefore,

[tex]f(L) = L^2 + 4L(\dfrac{256}{L^2})[/tex]

Differentiating the function to get the minimum,

[tex]f(L) = L^2 + 4L(\dfrac{256}{L^2})\\\\f(L) = L^2 + (\dfrac{1024}{L})\\\\f'(L) = 2L - (\dfrac{1024}{L^2})[/tex]

Equating against zero,

[tex]2L - (\dfrac{1024}{L^2}) = 0\\\\\dfrac{2L^3-1024}{L^2} = 0\\\\2L^3-1024 = 0\\\\L = 8[/tex]

Substituting the value of L,

[tex]H = \dfrac{256}{L^2}\\\\H = \dfrac{256}{8^2}\\\\H = 4[/tex]

But this way the area will be more, therefore, replace the value of L with 8,

L = 4

H = 8

Hence, the length of the aquarium is 4, and the width of the aquarium is 8.
