3. The Mitchell family took a road trip from Detroit to Toronto. Their route was 750 kilometers long and required 54 liters of g

as.
a. What was the family’s fuel efficiency in miles per gallon? Round to the nearest tenth.



b. Suppose the Mitchells plan to drive to Washington, D.C. on their next road trip. Assuming they get the same mileage as you calculated in part a, calculate the cost of their 1060-mile route if gasoline costs $2.35 per gallon.

The family’s fuel efficiency in miles per gallon is 32.67miles/gallon .The cost of their 1060-mile route if gasoline costs $2.35 per gallon  is $ 76.234.

<h3>What is Distance Travelled ?</h3>

The measure of the length between two points is called Distance.

It is a scalar quantity.

The family's fuel efficiency =  Distance travelled/ Fuel required

= 750/54

= 13.89 km/l

= 13.89* 0.621/0.264  miles/gallon

=32.67miles/gallon

For the same fuel efficiency ,

cost for Washington DC trip

Distance = 1060 mile

fuel required = 1060/32.67

=32.44 gallon

Cost of 1 gallon = $2.35

Cost of 32.44 gallon = 32.44 * 2.35

=$76.234

The cost of their 1060-mile route if gasoline costs $2.35 per gallon  is $ 76.234.

Write the series using summation notation.<br><br> 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

\sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the series using the summation notation, first we need to find the nth term of the sequence formed. The sequence generated by the series is an arithmetic sequence as shown;

4, 8, 12, 16, 20...80

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as Tn = a +(n-1)d

a is the first term = 4

d is the common difference = 21-8 = 8-4 = 4

n is the number of terms

On substituting, Tn = 4+(n-1)4

Tn = 4+4n-4

Tn = 4n

The nth term of the series is 4n.

Since the last term is 80, L = 4n

80 = 4n

n = 80/4

n = 20

This shows that the total number of terms in the sequence is 20

According to the series given 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 , we are to take the sum of the first 20terms of the sequence. Using summation notation;

4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80  = \sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

Aidan writes numbers on his ten fingers as 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 16, 19, 22, 23. What is the probability of picking an even numbe
faltersainse [42]
It would be 2/10, or 1/5, since two out of the 10 numbers are even. 2/10 simplifies to 1/5, since there is 1 for every 5 numbers.

We could turn this into a percentage by dividing 1 by 5, which gives us 0.2. Then we can multiply by 100 to get 20.

So, our probability of choosing an even number is:
2/10
OR
1/5
OR
20%

Hope I could help!

A manufacturer of cell phone screens is concerned because 12 percent of the screens manufactured using a previous process were r
fomenos

Answer: A.

H_0:p=0.12\\\\H_a:p

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis(H_0) : A statement describing population parameters as per the objective of the study. It usually takes "≤,≥,=" signs.  

Alternative hypothesis (H_a): A statement describing population parameters as per the objective of the study. It usually takes ">, <, ≠" signs.

Let p be the proportion of screens that will be rejected.

12 percent of the screens manufactured using a previous process were rejected at the final inspection.

(i.e. p= 0.12)

Objective of the study = whether the new process<em> reduces </em>the population proportion of screens that will be rejected

i.e. p< 0.12

So, the appropriate hypotheses to investigate whether the new process reduces the population proportion of screens that will be rejected:

H_0:p=0.12\\\\H_a:p
