To start to figure this problem out, we can first figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister.


50 - 40 = 10, so you read 10 more pages in 1 hour.


Now we have to figure out how much more you would read in 1/2 an hour. Since 1/2 an hour is 1/2 of an hour, we can divide 10 by 2 to figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister. 10 divided by 2 is 5, so you read 5 more pages every half hour.

Are the ratios 3:5 and 2:4 equivalent?<br> yes or no
jeyben [28]

Answer:

No, they are not.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio can be written as a fraction. So 3:5 is the same as 3/5 and 2:4 is the same as 2/4.

3/5 = 2/4

0.6 = 0.5 INCORRECT

As you can see, the both don't equal the same numbers, so they aren't equivalent.

The mayor is interested in finding a 98% confidence interval for the mean number of pounds of trash per person per week that is
saul85 [17]

Solution :

Given :

Sample mean, $\overline X = 34.2$

Sample size, n = 129

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.2

a. Since the population standard deviation is unknown, therefore, we use the t-distribution.

b. Now for 95% confidence level,

   α = 0.05, α/2 = 0.025

  From the t tables, T.INV.2T(α, degree of freedom), we find the t value as

  t =T.INV.2T(0.05, 128) = 2.34

  Taking the positive value of t, we get  

  Confidence interval is ,

  $\overline X \pm t \times \frac{s}{\sqrt n}$

 $34.2 \pm 2.34 \times \frac{8.2}{\sqrt {129}}$

 (32.52, 35.8)

 95% confidence interval is  (32.52, 35.8)

So with $95 \%$ confidence of the population of the mean number of the pounds per person per week is between 32.52 pounds and 35.8 pounds.

c. About $95 \%$ of confidence intervals which contains the true population of mean number of the pounds of the trash that is generated per person per week and about $5 \%$ that doe not contain the true population of mean number of the pounds of trashes generated by per person per week.

WHat is 20/7 written as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth?
S_A_V [24]
To solve this, you just divide 20 divided by 7.

20/7 = <span>2.85714285714

If you are trying to round to the nearest tenth, the next decimal place (hundredths) is a 5, so you must round 2.8 up one more digit.

Your final answer is that</span> 20/7 = 2.9 when rounded to the nearest tenth.

Identify the decimals labeled with the letters A, B, and C on the scale below. Letter A represents the decimal Letter B represen
Yuliya22 [10]

10 divisions between $389$ and $390$ so each division is $\frac{390-389}{10}=0.1$

A is 8 division from $389$, so, A is $389+8\times 0.1=389.8$

similarly, C is one division behind $389$ so it is $389-1\times 0.1=388.9$

and B is $390.3$
