Answer:

The constant of proportionality for the box is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

  Given : The volume of a box (V) varies directly with its length (l). If the box has a volume of 90 cubic inches and a length of 15 inches.

We have to find the constant of proportionality for the box.

Since, The volume of a box (V) varies directly with its length (l)

Mathematically written as  V ∝ l

For removing proportionality, we multiply a proportionality constant k,

Thus, the equation V ∝ l

Becomes V = k l

Also given volume of 90 cubic inches and a length of 15 inches.

Substitute, V = 90 , and l = 15

We have,

90 = k (15)

Divide both side by 15, we get,

k = 6

Thus,  the constant of proportionality for the box is 6.

A national survey of companies included a question that asked whether the company had at least one bilingual telephone operator.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The first option is correct. Option A is correct.

LCL = 0.270, and UCL = 0.397

80% Confidence interval = (0.270, 0.397)

Step-by-step explanation:

The data for Y and N for the 90 companies is attached to this solution provided.

Y represents companies with at least 1 bilingual operator and N represents companies with no bilingual operator.

The number of Y in the data = 30

Hence, sample proportion of companies with at least one bilingual operator = (30/90) = 0.3333

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion = 0.3333

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 80% confidence level for sample size of 90 is obtained from the z-tables.

Critical value = 1.280

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]

p = sample proportion

n = sample size = 90

σₓ = √[0.3333×0.6667)/90] = 0.0496891568 = 0.04969

80% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.3333 ± (1.28 × 0.04969)

CI = 0.3333 ± 0.0636021207

80% CI = (0.2696978793, 0.3969021207)

80% Confidence interval = (0.270, 0.397)

Hope this Helps!!!

The sum of three consecutive even integers is -78, what are the integers ?
Digiron [165]
First, you need to analize and understand the problem, then you must choose and strategy. There is a wide variety of strategies to solve a mathematical problem, in this case, you can use the following, which is based on the information given above:
 1. You have that t<span>he sum of three consecutive even integers is </span>-78<span>, therefore, you can given the variable </span>x&#10;<span> to the first integer, the second even integer is </span>x+2<span> and the third one is </span>x+4&#10;<span>.
 2. Calculate x:
 </span>x+(x+2)+(x+4)=-78<span>
 </span>3x+6=-78
<span> </span>x=-28&#10;<span>
 </span>x+2=-28+2=-26&#10;<span>
 </span>x+4=-28+4=-24&#10;<span>
 Therefore, the answer is:</span>-28,-26,-24&#10;

Please help! alg 1! I really need a explaintion fastttt
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

  1. y = -5x +10
  2. (0, 10)
  3. (1, 5)
  4. see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 5x from both sides to put the equation in slope-intercept form:

  y = -5x +10

__

2. The y-intercept is the point corresponding to x=0. The y-value when x=0 is the constant in the equation: 10. Then the point is ...

  (x, y) = (0, 10)

You may notice this is one of the points listed in part 4, and is also used in question 3.

__

3. The x-value computed is 1; the y-value computed is 5. The point is ...

  (x, y) = (1, 5)

You may notice this is one of the points listed in part 4.

__

4. See attached
