Answer:

We are moving at 50 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

The first thing we need to do in order to solve this problem is change the initial speed into mph.

\frac{1.5mi}{1min} * 60min =  \frac{90mi}{hour}

Now we subtract the initial speed by 15 mph.

\frac{90mi}{hour} - \frac{15mi}{hour} = \frac{75mi}{hour}

Finally, we need to reduce the current speed by 1/3, this means that the final speed is 2/3 of the current speed. We can calculate this by multiplying the current speed by 2/3 like so,

\frac{75mi}{hour} * \frac{2}{3} = \frac{50mi}{hour}

Finally, we can see that we are moving at 50 mph

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

1.5 miles per minute is 90 mph.

Slowing down by 15 mph makes 75 mph.

Reduce speed by a third (25 mph) and that makes 50 mph.

The production manager is going to present this information to the company's board of directors. Which graph should the manager
viktelen [127]

To best emphasize the number of defects. Manager should use graph 3 (refer the image shown):

If we talk about graph 1, it can also be used but usually we put the time line on the horizontal axis, for the convenience and the quantity to be measured on the y-axis. In the graph 1, the time is placed on the vertical axis (x-axis) so it would not be a good pick for the manager.

Same is the case with graph 2 again we have time on the vertical axis. So it is not a good idea to with graph 2.

Graph 3 could be the best to emphasize the number of defects because first of all time is placed on the horizontal axis and the quantity to be shown is on the vertical axis. Secondly, the range of the vertical axis is less so it is easy to observe the data set on the graph quite distinctively. Therefore, graph 3 is the best pick.

Graph 4 is placed correctly in terms of vertical and horizontal axes but the range of vertical axis is quite high due to which the dispersion or the display of the data is quite compressed and it gets hard to visualize.

I don't understand numbers 4-6. Please show work, thank you. c:
dimulka [17.4K]
Question 4- You need to subtract the shortest bolt from the longest bolt, or 1 1/4 minus 3/8. Make 1 1/4 improper and make the denominator 8 so multiply 5x2=10 and 4x2=8. 10/8 - 3/8 equals 7/8 and thats your final answer. Hope this helped ;)

Construct a sample (with at least two different values in the set) of 4 measurements whose mean, median, and mode are equal. If
KiRa [710]

Answer:

The first set 4 , 6 , 6 , 8

The second set 2 , 6 , 6 , 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average of the values in a set. This can be found by summing all the numbers and dividing by the total number. The median is the middle number when the values are listed in order of increasing size. The mode is the number(s) that appear the most often in the set.

The first set 4 , 6 , 6 , 8

mean = (4 + 6 + 6 + 8 )/4 = 6

median = (6+6)/2 = 6

Mode = 6

The second set 2 , 6 , 6 , 10

mean = (2 + 6 + 6 + 10)/4 = 6

median = (6+6)/2 = 6

Mode = 6
