How to compare rates and ratios

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]3 years ago

Ratios don't have to be "per" something, while rates are "per" something. 

Ratios compare 2 or more values, as well as rates.

50 points i need to know how to plot these
svetlana [45]

x is time and y is pencils that you have

'starts with 90' so at x=0, plot y=90

'gives away 15 every hour' so for every 1 hour, move 15 down on y

so at x=1, do 90-15=75 pencils

at x=2, do 75-15=60 pencils

etc

until you get to

x=6, do 15-15=0 pencils then stop because you can't give away 15 pencils when you have 0

see attachment for plot

I don't know how your segment tool works so you do it

if it draws a line, you only need 2 points, just do when x=0, y=90 and when x=6, y=0

The population standard deviation for the typing speeds for secretaries is 4 words per minute. If we want to be 90% confident th
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The minimum sample size that should be taken is 62.

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{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

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

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

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.

If we want to be 90% confident that the sample mean is within 1 word per minute of the true population mean, what is the minimum sample size that should be taken

This is n when M = 1, \sigma = 4. So

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

1 = 1.96*\frac{4}{\sqrt{n}}

\sqrt{n} = 4*1.96

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (4*1.96)^{2}

n = 61.5

The minimum sample size that should be taken is 62.

An isosceles triangle has a vertical angle of 108 and a base 20 cm long. Solve for the base angles in calculated altitude.
xeze [42]

Answer:

The base angles are 36° each

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two of its sides and base angles to be equal.

If an isosceles triangle has a vertical angle of 108°, then the base angles will share the remaining angle in the triangle equally.

Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

The remaining angle in the triangle = 180°-108°

= 72°

Since the base angles are equal, this remaining two angles will share angle 72° equally.

The base angles = 72°/2

The base angles = 36°

This shows that the base angles are 36° each.
