To answer the ratio, massage this equation around to find ' n/m ' .
Let's subtract 'm' from each side:
4n = 2n + 7m
Subtract '2n' from each side:
2n = 7m
Divide each side by 'm' :2 (n/m) = 7
Divide each side by 2 :
n/m = 7/2 . . . . . there's your ratio. That's choice-'e'.

The mean student loan debt for college graduates in Illinois is $30000 with a standard deviation of $9000. Suppose a random samp

Nataly [62]

Answer:

the probability that the mean student loan debt for these people is between $31000 and $33000 is 0.1331

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean = 30000

Standard deviation = 9000

sample size = 100

The probability that the mean student loan debt for these people is between $31000 and $33000 can be computed as:

$P(31000 < X < 33000) = P( X \leq 33000) - P (X \leq 31000)$

$P(31000 < X < 33000) = P( \dfrac{X - 30000}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} \leq \dfrac{33000 - 30000}{\dfrac{9000}{\sqrt{100}}} )- P( \dfrac{X - 30000}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} \leq \dfrac{31000 - 30000}{\dfrac{9000}{\sqrt{100}}} )$

$P(31000 < X < 33000) = P( Z \leq \dfrac{33000 - 30000}{\dfrac{9000}{\sqrt{100}}} )- P(Z \leq \dfrac{31000 - 30000}{\dfrac{9000}{\sqrt{100}}} )$

$P(31000 < X < 33000) = P( Z \leq \dfrac{3000}{\dfrac{9000}{10}}}) -P(Z \leq \dfrac{1000}{\dfrac{9000}{10}}})$

$P(31000 < X < 33000) = P( Z \leq 3.33)-P(Z \leq 1.11})$

From Z tables:

$P(31000 < X$

Therefore; the probability that the mean student loan debt for these people is between $31000 and $33000 is 0.1331

A train to New York city leaves a station every 7 minutes. Another train to Boston leaves the station every 6 minutes. Suppose i

Virty [35]

Answer:

7:12 a.m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Train to New York city leaves station every 7 minutes

Train to Boston leaves station every 6 minutes

Current time = 6:30 a.m

Time both will leave station together is obtained by finding the least common multiple of 6 and 7

Multiples of ;

6 = 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60,...

7 = 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70,...

The least common multiple of 6 and 7 is 42.

Hence, both trains will leave the station together after 42 minutes ;

Current time + 42 minutes

6:30 a.m+ 42 minutes = 7:12 a.m

How you could use paper folding to construct the bisector of an angle

user100 [1]

<span>This really works well with wax paper. It is transparent and it leaves a visible white line on the crease. For the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, fold the endpoints of the line segment onto each other. The crease is the perpendicular bisector. This of course also gives you the midpoint, because that is where the perpendicular bisector intersects the line segment. For an angle bisector, put the crease through the vertex of the angle and lay the sides of the angle over top of each other. The crease is the angle bisecto
