Grant is trying to make money to help pay for college by taking a job with Brian’s bike taxis if Baltimore. He has an agreement

with Brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night. He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them. If grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day, how many miles would he need to ride?

Grant needs to ride at least 13.33 miles to male at least $ 15.00 a day

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Grant has an agreement with Brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night

He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them

Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day

To find: miles needed to ride

From given question, He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them

So if he transports for "x" miles he would get,

\$ 3.75 \times x = \$ 3.75x

So the profit he gets is $ 3.75 and initial cost invested to rent bike is $ 35. Also, Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day

So we can frame a inequality as:

3.75x - 35 \geq 15\\\\3.75x\geq 35 + 15\\\\3.75x\geq 50\\\\x \geq 13.33

So he needs to ride atleast 13.33 miles to male atleast $ 15.00 a day

1. A food safety guideline is that the mercury in fish should be below 1 part per million​ (ppm). Listed below are the amounts o
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The confidence interval estimate of the population mean is :

(0.61 ppm, 0.90 ppm)

The correct option is (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

The amounts of mercury​ (ppm) found in tuna sushi sampled at different stores in a major city are:

S = {0.58, 0.82, 0.10, 0.98, 1.27, 0.56, 0.96}

A (100-\alpha )\% confidence interval for the population mean (μ) is an interval estimate of the true value of the mean. This interval has a (100-\alpha )\% probability of consisting the true value of mean.

⇒ Since the population standard deviation is not provided we will use the <em>t</em>-distribution to construct the 99% confidence interval for mean.

⇒ The formula for confidence interval for the population mean is:

                                          \bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2,(n-1)}\times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

Here,

\bar x = sample mean

<em>s </em>= sample standard deviation

<em>n</em> = sample size

t_{\alpha/2,(n-1)} = critical value.

The degrees of freedom for the critical value is, (<em>n</em> - 1) = 7 - 1 = 6.

The significance level is: \alpha =1-Confidence\ level=1-0.99=0.01

The critical value is:

t_{\alpha/2,(n-1)}=t_{0.01/2, 7}=t_{0.05,7}=3.143

**Use the <em>t</em>-table for the critical value.

Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation as follows:

\bar x=\frac{1}{7}(0.58+ 0.82+ 0.10+ 0.98+ 1.27+ 0.56+ 0.96) =0.753

\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x{i}-\bar x)^{2}}{n-1} } =\sqrt{\frac{1}{6} \times 0.859743} =0.379

The 99% confidence interval for μ is:

x^{2} CI=0.753\pm 3.143\times\frac{0.379}{\sqrt{7}} \\=0.753\pm0.143\\=(0.61, 0.896)\\\approx(0.61, 0.90)

The confidence interval estimate of the population mean is:

(0.61 ppm, 0.90 ppm)

The upper and lower limit of the 99% confidence interval indicates that the true mean value is less than 1 ppm. This implies that there is not too much mercury in tuna sushi

Because it is possible that the mean is not greater than 1 ppm. Also, at least one of the sample values is less than 1 ppm, so at least some of the fish are safe.

Thus, the correct option is (A).

A rectangular container has a base that is 12 inches long and 8 inches wide. The container is filled with water to a height of 6
valina [46]

Answer: the length of one edge of the square base of the second container is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular container is expressed as

Volume = length × width × height

Considering the first container,

Length = 12 inches

Width = 8 inches

Height to which the water is filled is 6 inches.

Therefore, volume of water in the container is

12 × 8 × 6 = 576 inches³

Considering the second container,

Height of water = 16 inches

Let L represent the length of the square base. Then the area of the square base is L²

Volume of water would be 16L²

Since the water in the first container was poured into the second container, then

16L² = 576

L² = 576/16 = 36

L = √36

L = 6 inches

Quick I need to finish this and I still have more questions after
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

1\frac{1}{2} or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we know it's a dilation.  So we can use any two points.  I chose V and V'.

V: (3,6)

V': (2,4)

So how we get from 6 to 4?

4(x)=6\\x=\frac{6}{4} \\x=1.5

You can tell it's 1.5 aswell because 4 times 1 is 4 and 4 times 0.5 is 2.  Add them to get 6.  

Therefore, the dilation factor is 1.5.
