a) (0.17 ac)×(126 min/ac) = 21.42 min
b) I can mow 1/126 ac/min; you can mow 1/117 ac/min. Together, we can mow at a rate that is the sum of these:
... (1/126 + 1/117) ac/min = (117 + 126)/(126×117) = 243/14,742 ac/min
Then it will take 14,742/243 min/ac × 0.17 ac/lawn ≈ 10.31 min/lawn
Answer:
95% confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase is [0.767, 0.815]. Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
The confidence interval for a proportion is given as [p +/- margin of error (E)]
p is sample proportion = 870/1,100 = 0.791
n is sample size = 1,100
confidence level (C) = 95% = 0.95
significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 = 5%
critical value (z) at 5% significance level is 1.96.
E = z × sqrt[p(1-p) ÷ n] = 1.96 × sqrt[0.791(1-0.791) ÷ 1,100] = 1.96 × 0.0123 = 0.024
Lower limit of proportion = p - E = 0.791 - 0.024 = 0.767
Upper limit of proportion = p + E = 0.791 + 0.024 = 0.815
95% confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase is between a lower limit of 0.767 and an upper limit of 0.815.
Use proportions.
214/236=x/100(100 because it's a percentage.
cross multiply:
23600=214x
solve for x:
x= 11.3(rounded)
11.3% increase
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
W=2.5, L=x
A=LW=2.5x
P=2(L+W)=2(2.5+x)=5+2x
P=A
5+2x=2.5x
5-0.5x=0
-0.5x=-5
x=10
