There are five times as many cars as trucks on the road. Which fraction represents the number of vehicles that are trucks?

1 answer:

5 0

Well, the ratio of cars to trucks is 5:1, so for every 1 truck, there are 5 cars, the sum would be 6. So that's the denominator, and then the numerator would be 1, since there's only 1 truck out of every 6 vehicles.

Answer: D. 1/6

The proportion of a population with a characteristic of interest is p = 0.37. What is the standard deviation of the sampling dis

lukranit [14]

The standard deviation (SD) of a sample proportion obtained when the sample size is 1,600 is equal to 0.0121.

<h3>What is a sample proportion?</h3>

A sample proportion can be defined as the proportion of individuals in a sample that have a specified characteristic or trait.

Mathematically, sample proportion can be calculated by using this formula:

$\hat{p} = \frac{x}{n}$

Where:

x represent the number of individuals with a specified characteristic.
n represent the total number of individuals in a sample.

In Mathematics, the standard deviation (SD) of a sample proportion obtained when the sample size is 1,600 can be calculated by using this formula:

Standard deviation (SD) = √(p(1 - p)/n)

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Standard deviation (SD) = √(0.37(1 - 0.37)/1,600)

Standard deviation (SD) = √(0.37(0.63)/1,600)

Standard deviation (SD) = √(0.2331)/1,600)

Standard deviation (SD) = √0.0001457

Standard deviation (SD) = 0.0121.

A weightlifter holds a 1,700 N barbell 1 meter above the ground. One end of a 2-meter-long chain hangs from the center of the ba

masha68 [24]

In physics, work is equal to the product of force and distance, given that the direction of force is the same with the direction of the distance.

W = Fd

The total force is
F = 1,700 N + 500 N = 2,200 N
Now, if the question is the work needed to lift the barbell from the ground, the distance would be 2 m. Hence, the work would be

W = (2,220 N)(2 m) = 4,400 N·m or 4,400 J

Calculate the area, with the appropriate number of significant figures, of a rectangular room that is 14.10 m wide by 15.0 m lon

Paladinen [302]

<h3>Answer: Choice A) 212 square meters</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

14.10 has four sig figs. The 0 at the end is significant. This measurement is accurate to the hundredths place. If the author wrote 14.1, then it would be accurate to the tenths place with three sig figs.

15.0 has three sig figs. The 0 is significant. If they wrote 15 or 15. then we'd be dealing with 2 sig figs instead; however they placed the 0 there to tell the reader "this measurement is accurate to the tenths place"

---------------------

Multiply the values given

14.10*15.0 = 211.5

Round that to three sig figs. We pick the smaller sig fig count to round to since we cannot be certain it is accurate to four sig figs. In a sense, we pick the weakest link and use that to determine rounding when it comes to multiplication and division.

This means 211.5 rounds to 212
