Answer:

Part A: The unit that would be best to describes the situations is to the mile

Part B: 4 significant figures

Part C: 1,450 miles

Part D: He is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: By unit conversion, we have;

1 mile = 1,760 yards

Given that the distance from Ottawa, Canada to Jackson Mississippi is 2,552,000 yards it would best simplified into miles

Part B: The number of significant digits in the reporters estimate are the non-zero digits before the zeros in the number figure which are 2, 5, 5, and 2 or 4 significant figures

Part C: 2,552,000 yards = 2,552,000 yards/(1,760 yards/mile) = 1,450 miles

Part D: Given that the distance from Jackson to Tucson = 7,159,680 feet, we have;

1 mile = 5,280 feet

Therefore;

7,159,680 feet = 7,159,680 feet/(5,280 feet/mile) = 1,356 miles

Therefore, the claim that the distance from Jackson to Tucson which is 1,356 miles is further than the distance from Ottawa, Canada to Jackson Mississippi which is 1,450 miles is not correct because;

The distance from Jackson to Tucson 1,356 miles $\ngtr$ 1,450 miles which is the distance from Jackson to Ottawa

Past experience has indicated that the breaking strength of yarn used in manufacturing drapery material is normally distributed

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

95% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean breaking strength is (94.8cm, 99.2cm)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our sample size is 11.

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

$df = 11-1 = 10$ .

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level $\alpha$ and divide by 2. So:

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 10 and 0.025 in the two-sided t-distribution table, we have $T = 1.812$

Now, we find the standard deviation of the sample. This is the division of the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. So

$s = \frac{4}{\sqrt{11}} = 1.2060$

Now, we multiply T and s

$M = Ts = 1.812*1.2060 = 2.19/tex]For the lower end of the interval, we subtract the sample mean by M. So the lower end of the interval here is[tex]L = 97 - 2.19 = 94.81 = 94.8$ cm

For the upper end of the interval, we add the sample mean and M. So the upper end of the interval here is

$L = 97 + 2.19 = 99.19 = 99.2$ cm

95% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean breaking strength is (94.8cm, 99.2cm).

In the video Mouse Count, Miss Ashley read a book about a snake that captured mice and placed them one-by- one in a jar for his

spin [16.1K]

Based on the fact that the snake was placing the mice one - by - one into a jar, this is A. Combining sets.

<h3>What does combining sets entail?</h3>

When sets are combined, it means that numbers from a certain set of variables are combined with those from another set.

The snake had captured the mice separately which means they were in different sets. Putting them into one jar means they are being combined so this is combining sets.

The equation y = 5.5x represents a proportional relationship. What is the constant of proportionality?

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Y = 5.5x

The constant is 5.5

since no matter what y and x are there will always be a 5.5 difference
