It wants an average. So 30 MPH +12 MPH ÷ 2 which represents the 2 directions. Equal 21 MPH

D = rt
Uphill
d = 10(12/60) d = 2 miles (12/60) represents part of an hour

Downhill
2 = 30t
2/30 = t 1/15 = t 1/15 of an hour = 4 minutes

Average speed = total miles covered/total time
total distance = 4 miles
total time = 4 minutes + 12 minutes = 16 minutes/60 = 4/15 of an hour
4/(4/15) = 15 mph

The coordinates of DEF are D(3,4), E(6,4), and F(5,9). If you translate DEF 3 units left and 2 units up, what are the coordinate

grigory [225]

EXPLANATION:

1.We must locate the points that the exercise gives us in the Cartesian plane.

2.The figure that it gives us must be moved 3 units to the left and then 2 units up.

3.To correctly translate a figure, we must add the units that the exercise indicates and towards the correct direction, if it tells us that to the left is towards the negative axis, then each of the points given in the exercise we will transfer 3 units towards the left and then add each of the points two units up, then we see that the triangle takes new coordinates for the points.

4.The new coordinates for point E are (3,6)

The mayor is interested in finding a 98% confidence interval for the mean number of pounds of trash per person per week that is

saul85 [17]

Solution :

Given :

Sample mean, $\overline X = 34.2$

Sample size, n = 129

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.2

a. Since the population standard deviation is unknown, therefore, we use the t-distribution.

b. Now for 95% confidence level,

α = 0.05, α/2 = 0.025

From the t tables, T.INV.2T(α, degree of freedom), we find the t value as

t =T.INV.2T(0.05, 128) = 2.34

Taking the positive value of t, we get

Confidence interval is ,

$\overline X \pm t \times \frac{s}{\sqrt n}$

$34.2 \pm 2.34 \times \frac{8.2}{\sqrt {129}}$

(32.52, 35.8)

95% confidence interval is (32.52, 35.8)

So with $95 \%$ confidence of the population of the mean number of the pounds per person per week is between 32.52 pounds and 35.8 pounds.

c. About $95 \%$ of confidence intervals which contains the true population of mean number of the pounds of the trash that is generated per person per week and about $5 \%$ that doe not contain the true population of mean number of the pounds of trashes generated by per person per week.
