Gas is 2.45 per gallon. So if we pay $12 we get 12÷2.45 gallons:

12 ÷ 2.45 ≈ 4.90 gallons.

You get roughly 4.90 gallons.

Tell whether the product SR is defined for S4×5 and R4×3 . If yes, give the product's dimensions as the following example: 4x3.

Rufina [12.5K]

No, the product is not valid. The number of columns of $\mathbf S$ (five) should match the number of rows of $\mathbf R$ (four).

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.

valina [46]

Answer:

A sample of 179 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.85}{2} = 0.075$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.075 = 0.925$ , so Z = 1.44.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 1.69 gallon?

This means that $\sigma = \sqrt{1.69} = 1.3$

If they are using a 85% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water?

A sample of n is needed, and n is found for M = 0.14. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14 = 1.44\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14\sqrt{n} = 1.44*1.3$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14})^2$

$n = 178.8$

Rounding up

A sample of 179 is needed.

on a recent hike through riverbend park antoinette traveled 2/3 mile in 1/3 hour . Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed i

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity:

The velocity is given by the following formula:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.

2/3 mile in 1/3 hour .

This means that $d = \frac{2}{3}, t = \frac{1}{3}$

Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed in miles per hour?

This is v. So

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{1} = 2$

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

Ines has saved $5. She doubles the amount she saves each week. Does the function have a constant difference or a constant ratio?

salantis [7]

Answer:

The function have a constant ratio

No, it does not represent an exponential function.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Ines has saved $5. She doubles the amount she saves each week.

⇒ In first week she saved = $5

In second week she saved = 2×$5 = $10

In third week she saved = 2×$10 = 20

In fourth week she saved = 2×$20 = 40

and so on..

∴ we get the series

5, 10, 20, 40 ,.......

If the series is given as a, b, c, d, ..... , then

The common difference is defined as d = b-a = c-b

The common ration is defined as r = $\frac{b}{a} = \frac{c}{b}$

Here, in the given question

The series is - 5, 10, 20, 40

This has no common difference , d = 10 - 5 (= 5 )≠ 20 - 10 (= 10)

As 5 ≠ 10

So the function does not define common difference .

Now,

This has common ratio , r = $\frac{10}{5} (=2) = \frac{20}{10}(=2)$

As 2 = 2

So, the function represent common ratio

Now,

The function does not represent an exponential function because it is increased by common ratio.
