Answer:
1 and 3/7 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Every hour they get 140 miles closer (100 + 40). So you divide 200 by 140 which gets you 1.42... or 1 and 3/7 of an hour.
Answer: Choice D. 15 - (-18)
This results in 15 - (-18) = 15 + 18 = 33.
So from -18 to 15 on a number line is 33 spaces.
We can also say
|-18 - 15| = |-33| = 33
The use of absolute value is to ensure the distance is never negative.
Answer:
The equation of the line would be y = -5/2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the equation of the line, we first need to find the slope of the original line. We can do that by solving for y.
5x + 2y = 12
2y = -5x + 12
y = -5/2x + 6
Now that we have a slope of -5/2, we know the new slope will be the same since parallel lines have the same slope. So we can use it along with the point in point-slope form to find the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 4 = -5/2(x + 2)
y - 4 = -5/2x - 5
y = -5/2x - 1
<h2><u>
Answer with explanation</u>
:</h2>
Let 
be the population mean.
As per given , we have
Since the alternative hypothesis is right-tailed , so the test is a right-tailed test.
Also, population standard deviation is given 
, so we perform one-tailed z-test.
Test statistic : 
, where = Population mean
= Population standard deviation
n= sample size
= Sample mean
For n= 18 , 
, , 
, we have
P-value (for right tailed test): P(z>2.12) = 1-P(z≤ 2.12) [∵ P(Z>z)=1-P(Z≤z)]\
=1- 0.0340=0.9660
Decision : Since P-value(0.9660) > Significance level (0.01), it means we are failed to reject the null hypothesis.
[We reject null hypothesis if p-value is larger than the significance level . ]
Conclusion : We do not have sufficient evidence to show that the goal is not being met at α = .01 .
