4/15
4/6 = 20/30 and 2/5 = 12/30 so 20 - 12 = 8 or 8/30 which can be rounded to 4/15

Three students want to estimate the mean backpack weight of their schoolmates. To do this, they each randomly chose 8 schoolmates and weighed their backpacks. Then as per the given sample data,

(a) The sample means of the backpacks are: 6.375,6.375,6.625

(b) Range of sample means: 0.25

(c)The true statement is: The closer the range of the sample means is to 0, the less confident they can be in their estimate.

For the first sample, mean= 6.375

For the second sample, mean= 6.375

For the third sample, mean= 6.625

Range of sample means=Maximum Mean- Minimum Mean

= 6.625 - 6.375

= 0.25

The students will estimate the average backpack weight of their classmates using sample means, the true statement is:

The closer the range of the sample means is to 0, the more confident they can be in their estimate.

What is the simplified form of the quantity y-squared plus 7y plus 12 over the quantity y-squared plus 8y plus 15

Burka [1]

Firstly, let's factorise each equation individually - to do this, find 2 numbers that when summed add to the value of the second term, and when multiplied give the value of the third term.

7 and 12 give us 4 and 3 (4+3=7, 4*3=12) -- 8 and 15 give us 5 and 3 (5+3=8, 5*3=15)

Now we can rewrite these equations as (y+4)(y+3) and (y+5)(y+3) respectively.

Putting this in a fraction: (y+4)(y+3)/(y+5)(y+3) -- We can clearly see that there is a y+3 on both sides of the fraction, and given there are no terms outside of the brackets being multiplied, we can directly cancel.

This gives us our final answer:
(y+4)/(y+5)

Select all quantities that are proportional to the diagonal length of a square.

horsena [70]

Answer:

B. Perimeter of a square and

C. Side length of a square

Step-by-step explanation:

if n= side length of square then

Area of square is $n^{2}$
Perimeter of a square is 4×n
diagonal length of a square is $\sqrt{2}$ × n

Thus,

Perimeter of square can be expressed as

$2\sqrt{2}$ ×diagonal length of a square

Side length of a square can be expressed as

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ ×diagonal length of a square

but Area of square is

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ ×n×diagonal length of a square

As a Result, Area of square is <em>also dependent of the value n</em>, wheras in other cases it is <em>a proportion of diagonal length of a square</em>

A concrete mix is designed to withstand 3000 pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure. The following data represent the strengt

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Mean = 3640

Mode = 4100

Median = 3830.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data in the question:

Strength of casts (in psi):

3970,4100,3100,3200,2950,3830,4100,4050,3460

Formula:

$Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observation}}{\text{Total number of observations}}$

$\displaystyle\frac{3970+4100+3100+ 3200+ 2950+ 3830+4100+ 4050+ 3460}{9} = \displaystyle\frac{32760} {9} = 3640$

Mode is the entry with most frequency. Thus, for the given sample mode = 4100.

Median

Since n = 9 is odd,

Formula:

$Median = \displaystyle\frac{n+1}{2}th~term$

Data in ascending order:

2950,3100,3200,3460,3830,3970,4050,4100,4100

Median = 5th term = 3830.
