A runner can run 2 miles in 14 minutes. At this rate, how many miles can he run in 70 minutes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is that the runner can run 10 miles in 70 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the number of miles that the runner can run in 70 minutes, start by setting up the information given from the problem in the form of a proportion.

A proportion is an equation which defines that the two given ratios are equivalent to each other. In other words, the proportion states the equality of the two fractions or the ratios. In a proportion, if two sets of given numbers are increasing or decreasing in the same ratio, then the ratios are said to be directly proportional to each other.

The proportion for this problem will look like [tex]\frac{2 miles}{14 minutes}=\frac{x}{70 minutes}[/tex]. (x) will be used as the variable for the number of miles that the runner can run in 70 minutes.  

To solve the proportion, start by cross multiplying to form an equation, and the equation will look like [tex](14)(x)=(2)(70)[/tex]. Next, simplify the equation, which will look like [tex](14)(x)=140[/tex]. Then, solve the equation by dividing both sides of the equation by 14, and it will look like [tex]x=10[/tex]. The final answer is that the runner can run 10 miles in 70 minutes.

0.976

0.1995

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 243. 4

Standard deviation, σ = 35

Sample size, n = 31

1.)

Standard Error

S. E = σ / √n = 35/√31 = 6.286

2.)

P(x < 230) ;

Z = (x - μ) / S.E

P(Z < (230 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z < - 2.132) = 0.0165

3.)

P(x > 231)

P(Z > (231 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z > - 1.973) = 0.976 (area to the right)

4)

P(x < 248)

P(Z < (248 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z < 0.732) = 0.7679

P(x < 255)

P(Z < (255 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z < 1.845) = 0.9674

0.9674 - 0.7679 = 0.1995

In a random sample of seven aerospace engineers, the sample mean monthly income is $6824 and the sample standard deviation is $340. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume that the monthly incomes are normally distributed.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is ($6510, $7138).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 7 - 1 = 6

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 6 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.4469.

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.4469\frac{340}{\sqrt{7}} = 314[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 6824 - 314 = $6510.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 6824 + 314 = $7138.

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is ($6510, $7138).

Let me know if anything didn't make sense.  

Step-by-step explanation:

So a diagonal through a rectangle makes two triangles.  The question wants to know how much walking is saved walking down the diagonal  vs walking along two sides that make the diagonal.  in this case the two non diagonal sides walked are 60 paces and 50 paces.

A diagonal through a rectangle specifically makes a right triangle, so to find the diagonal we can use the pythagorean theorem.  

c^2 = 60^2 + 50^2

c = [tex]\sqrt{60^2 + 50^2}[/tex]

c = [tex]\sqrt{6100} = 10\sqrt{61}[/tex]

if you don't get how to simplify a radical like that let me know.

Anyway, looking at the answers you can see right away the second option says no approximation is necessary.  Well, you need to approximate square root of 61, so we can say the second answer is not right.  So now we need to know what to fill in for option 1.

it wants the distance saved, well we know the distance of the diagonal is [tex]10\sqrt{61}[/tex]  Hopefully you can see the disctance walking the two other sides is just adding them up so 50+60=110.

Now, to find the difference, that is subtraction.  So subtract the smaller number from the larger number.  You do need to remember with a right triangle, the sum of the to non diagonal (hypotenuse) sides are always longer than said hypotenuse.  so that's 110-[tex]10\sqrt{61}[/tex].  That is the exact form.  Or you could use 10(11-[tex]\sqrt{61}[/tex])  They are the same.

Then just plug that into a calculator for a decimal approximation.

If you wanted to make a game where you pay $5 if you can't guess a random dogs weight within 16lbs what payout should you offer you make the game zero-expected value

[tex]\sigma=8\\\\P(\text{guess with in 16 lbs}) = P(|X-\mu|\leq 16)\\\\=P(-2 \leq Z \leq 2) = 0.9544\\\\[/tex]

Calculating the payout w s.t:

[tex]E[netpay]=0=(-5) \times 0.9544+w\times (1-0.9544)\\\\ w =(5 \times \frac{0.9544}{1-0.9544}) =\$ 104.65[/tex]

therefore, we assume that the weight of the dog is a normal distribution with std. deviation that is 8.

Suppose A is the sum of the first 50 consecutive multiples of 3, and B is the sum of the first 50 consecutive multiples of 6. What percent of A is B ?
E. 50%

Answers

The correct answer is H. B is the 200% of A.

Since A is the sum of the first 50 multiples of 3, while B is the sum of the first 50 multiples of 6, to determine what percentage of A is B, the base numbers of both calculations must be considered, that is, 3 and 6. Thus, since 6 is 200% of 3 (6/3 = 2), B is 200% of A.

Suppose that the probability that a person will develop hypertension over a life time is 60%. Of 13 graduating students from the same college are selected at random. find the mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time

Answers

Answer:

The mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time is 7.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes, either they will develop hypertension, or they will not. The probability of a person developing hypertension is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

Suppose that the probability that a person will develop hypertension over a life time is 60%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.6[/tex]

13 graduating students from the same college are selected at random.

This means that [tex]n = 13[/tex]

Find the mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time

[tex]E(X) = np = 13*0.6 = 7.8[/tex]

The mean number of the students who develop hypertension over a life time is 7.8.

The length of a rectangle is 4 meters longer than the width. If the area is 22 square meters. find the rectangles dimensions. The width is what? The length is what?

Answers

Answer:

The width is:

[tex]-2+\sqrt{26}\text{ meters}\text{ }(\text{or approximately 3.0990 meters})[/tex]

And the length is:

[tex]2+\sqrt{26}\text{ meters}\text{ } (\text{or approximately 7.0990 meters})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a rectangle is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle A = w\ell[/tex]

Where w is the width and l is the length.

We are given that the length of a rectangle is four meters longer than the width. Thus:

[tex]\ell = w + 4[/tex]

And we also know that the area of the rectangle is 22 square meteres.

Substitute:

[tex](22)=w(w+4)[/tex]

Distribute and isolate the equation:

[tex]w^2+4w-22=0[/tex]

The equation isn't factorable, so we can instead use the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle w = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this case, a = 1, b = 4, and c = -22. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle w = \frac{-(4)\pm\sqrt{(4)^2-4(1)(-22)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle\begin{aligned} w &= \frac{-4\pm\sqrt{104}}{2}\\ \\ &=\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{4\cdot 26}}{2} \\ \\ &=\frac{-4\pm2\sqrt{26}}{2} \\ \\ & = -2\pm \sqrt{26} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, our two solutions are:

[tex]w_1=-2+\sqrt{26}\approx 3.0990\text{ or } w_2=-2-\sqrt{26}\approx-7.0990[/tex]

Since the width cannot be negative, we can ignore the second solution.

Since the length is four meters longer than the width:

[tex]\ell = (-2+\sqrt{26})+4=2+\sqrt{26}\text{ meters}[/tex]

Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are:

[tex]\displaystyle (2+\sqrt{26}) \text{ meters by } (-2+\sqrt{26})\text{ meters}[/tex]

Or, approximately 3.0990 by 7.0990.

Naval intelligence reports that 99 enemy vessels in a fleet of 1818 are carrying nuclear weapons. If 99 vessels are randomly targeted and destroyed, what is the probability that no more than 11 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed

Answers

Answer:

0.001687 = 0.1687% probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vessels are destroyed and then not replaced, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[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]

In this question:

Fleet of 18 means that [tex]N = 18[/tex]

9 are carrying nuclear weapons, which means that [tex]k = 9[/tex]

9 are destroyed, which means that [tex]n = 9[/tex]

What is the probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,18,9,9) = \frac{C_{9,0}*C_{9,9}}{C_{18,9}} = 0.000021[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,18,9,9) = \frac{C_{9,1}*C_{9,8}}{C_{18,9}} = 0.001666[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.000021 + 0.001666 = 0.001687[/tex]

0.001687 = 0.1687% probability that no more than 1 vessel transporting nuclear weapons was destroyed.

For each graph below, state whether it represents a function.​

Answers

Answer:

graphs 1, 2, 3, and 4, can represent a function

graphs 5 and 6 can not represent a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

If for a given graph of a relationship you can draw a vertical line that intersects the graph in more than one point, then we can conclude that the graph does not represent a function.

Now, if we look at the first four graphs, we can see that no vertical line intersects more than one point, so the first four can represent functions.

The special case here is graph number 2, where we can see a white dot right below a colored dot, and if we draw a vertical line there, the line will touch both points. But, a white dot means that the exact point does not belong to the graph, so if the line passes through there, it will not intersect the graph.

For the last two, this is not the case, in graph 5 and graph 6 we could draw vertical lines that intersect the graphs twice

(any line like x = n, with n < 0, intersects two points in graph 5, while the line x = 0 intersects twice the graph number 6)

So graph 5 and graph 6 can't represent functions.
