A scale is a term that refers to the <em>representative fraction</em> for comparing the <u>original</u> length and <u>image</u> length of a given <u>object</u>. It means implies that every 1 unit on the <u>drawing</u> is equal to <u>100</u> units on the <u>park</u>.

A <em>scale</em> is a term that can be referred to as the <em>representative fraction</em> that compares the <u>original</u> length and <u>image</u> length of a given <em>object</em>. Types of <u>scale</u> include enlarged scale, reduced scale, and real scale.

  • Enlarged scale is a <u>scale</u> that is used when the <u>size</u> of a given <em>object</em> is to be <em>increased</em>.
  • <em>Reduced scale</em> is used when the <u>size</u> of a given <u>object</u> is to be <em>decreased</em>.
  • <u>Real scale</u> implies the <em>exact size</em> of a given <u>object</u>.

<u>Scale</u> can be expressed as;

Scale = \frac{length on drawing}{original length}

Thus a <em>scale</em> has no unit.

Therefore, the given question <em>implies</em> that every 1 unit on the <u>drawing</u> is equal to 100 units on the <u>original</u> park. Thus it is a <em>reduced scale</em>.

Amir stands on a balcony and throws a ball to his dog, who is at ground level. The ball's height (in meters above the ground), x
kumpel [21]

Answer:

12m

Step-by-step explanation

If the height of the ball after x seconds be modelled by the equation

h(x)=−(x−2)² +16

The height of the ball at the time it is thrown will be the height at the initial time. At that point that it is initially thrown the time is 0seconds i.e x = 0

To get the height at t x = 0seconds, we will substitute x = 0 into the modeled function to have;

h(0) = -(-0-2)²+16.

h(0) = -(-2)²+16

h(0) = -4+16

h(0) = 12

The height of the ball at the time the ball is thrown is 12m

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

652.6-2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=563.997    

652.6+2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=741.203    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (563.997;741.203)    

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X=652.6 represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=311.7 represent the sample standard deviation

n=50 represent the sample size  

Soltuion to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=50-1=49

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of \alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,49)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=2.01

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

652.6-2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=563.997    

652.6+2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=741.203    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (563.997;741.203)

A cyclist bikes at a constant speed for 22 miles. He then returns home at the same speed but takes a different route. His return
brilliants [131]
How concerned are you with how to get the answer?
Because I know the answer is 5 miles per hour
22/5= 4.4 hours
27/5= 5.4 hours

Alright this is how you solve it
Distance over time equals speed
So 22/y=x and 27/y+1=x
Start by solving for time by having these two equations equal each other
22/y=27/y+1
Cross multiply to get
22(y+1)=27y
22y+22=27y
Isolate Y
5y=22
Y=4.4
Now solve for X which is the speed, you can plug in Y to either of the two equations
22/4.4=x
X=5 miles per hour
