Second blank- 2000 pounds
Yes the bridge can hold 1 ton.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the scale of the model to the real bridge = 1:4
The test model shows the model can take 8000 ounces
The real bridge will therefore take 8000 x 4 = 32000 ounces
16 ounces = 1 pound
32000 ounces = x pounds
==> = 32000/16 = 2000 pounds
2000 pounds = 1 ton
therefore the bridge holds 1 ton
Answer:
He can buy 10 cds
Step-by-step explanation:
125-30=95
95 divided by 9 = 10.5555555556
The distribution of the number of occurrences of the letter t on the pages of a book is found to be a normal distribution with a mean of 44 and a standard deviation of 18. If there are 500 pages in the book, which sentence most closely summarizes the data?
A. The letter t occurs less than 26 times on approximately 170 of these pages.
B. The letter t occurs less than 26 times on approximately 15 of these pages.
C. The letter t occurs more than 26 times on approximately 420 of these pages.
D. The letter t occurs more than 26 times on approximately 80 of these pages.
.Answer:
<span>mean = 44 </span>
<span>sd = 18 </span>
<span>that means that "26" is 1 s.d. down, or at the 16th %ile </span>
<span>so, there is a .16 chance that "t" will occur less than 26 times on any single page. </span>
<span>consequently, there is a .84 chance that it will occur more than 26 times on any single page. </span>
<span>Using that information, and knowing that 16% of 500 is 80, and 84% of 500 is 420, can you see where "C" is correct? </span>
Using the given linear function of best-fit, the most likely approximate height of the plant after 8 weeks would be of 7.4 centimeters.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
The line of best-fit goes through points (0,1) and (5,5). Point (0,1) means that the y-intercept is of b = 1. The slope is given as follows:
m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 0) = 4/5 = 0.8.
Hence the equation that gives the approximate height after x weeks is:
y = 0.8x + 1.
After 8 weeks, the expected height is:
y = 0.8 x 8 + 1 = 6.4 + 1 = 7.4 centimeters.
