Answer: the total length of road they built is 9 1/5 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of days that it took the construction crew to finish the road 2 4/5. Converting 2 4/5 days to improper fraction, it becomes 14/5 days.

If they built 3 2/7 kilometers of road each day, converting 3 2/7 kilometers to improper fraction, it becomes 23/7 kilometers.

Therefore, the total length of road that they built is

23/7 × 14/5 = 322/35 kilometers

Converting to mixed fraction, it becomes

9 1/5 kilometers

Write the equation of a line that passes through the points (-2, 3) and (-4, 4) in slope intercept form (y=mx+b).
Yuri [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

first step is to find the gradient of the line which "m" on the equation

gradient formula is y2 - y1 ÷ x2 - x1 = -½ as shown on the picture we substituted those points given

2nd step is to substitute on the equation y=mx+c

m= -½

y= 3 (you can choose any from those given points but in my case I chose point A)

x= -2

c= ? only unknown variable so we can can calculate it

substitute as shown on the picture to get c= 2

therefore our equation of the line will be y= -½x+2

The life expectancy of a typical lightbulb is normally distributed with a mean of 2,000 hours and a standard deviation of 27 hou
LiRa [457]
The first standard deviation covers about 68% of the distribution in a normal curve. (34% higher, 34% lower than the mean). the second standard deviation covers 28% (14% between 1st and 2nd SD above the mean, 14% between 1st and 2nd SD below the mean).  In our case
1 Standard deviation = 27 hours (we will approximate to 25 hours)
Mean = 2,000 

This means that 34% of the distribution is between 1975 and 2000 hours       (within 1 standard deviation below the mean)

2,000- 2,050 covers the range within 50 hours above the mean.
50 hours is roughly 2 standard deviations. The second standard deviation (standard deviation between 1 and 2) covers around 14% on each side of the distribution.
50 hours is roughly 2 standard deviations, which means we add 34% + 14% = 48%. 
The range of 1,975 - 2,050 hours covers 34% of the distribution below the mean and 48% of the distribution above the mean. 
This means that the probability that the light bulb will last somewhere within this range is 34% + 48% = 82%

The closest answer is 79%. The difference can be explained by the fact that, for simplicity, we approximated the standard deviation to be ~25 hours instead of the real standard deviation of 27 hours.

If an arena hosts a concert for the same artist two years in a row and earns $1,500,000 in revenue during year one and $975,000
user100 [1]

The percentage decrease is 35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Revenue generated in first year = Old value = $1,500,000

Revenue generated in second year = New value = $975,000

Change = New value - Old value

Change = 975000 - 1500000= -$525000

The negative sign indicates the decrease.

Percent decrease = \frac{Change}{Old\ value}*100

Percent decrease = \frac{525000}{1500000}*100\\

Percent\ decrease=\frac{52500000}{1500000}\\\\Percent\ decrease = 35\%

The percentage decrease is 35%.

A large rectangular shaped aquarium has a volume of 300 ft3. If the aquarium has a height of 3 feet and a length of four more fe
KIM [24]

Answer:

length is 14.4ft and the width is 12.4ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the aquarium = length * width * height

Given

Volume = 300ft^3

Height = 3feet

l = w+4

Substitute

300 = 3w(w+4)

100 = w(w+4)

100 = w^2+4w

w^2+4w-100 = 0

w = 4±√16+400/2

w =4±√416/2

w = 4±20.4/2

w = 24.4/2

w = 12.2feet

Since l = w+4

l = 12.2+4

l = 16.4ft

hence the length is 14.4ft and the width is 12.4ft
