there are 3600 seconds per hour

5280 feet per mile

1 foot per second = 3600/5280 = 0.681818 Miles per Hour

60 seconds per minute

so 1500/60 = 25 feet per second

25 x 0.681818 = 17.05 miles per hour

Answer the following questions regarding the graphed inequality.

arsen [322]

Answer:

m = 0.5, b = 2, greater than symbol >

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope:

We can find the slope value by choosing two points on our line (the two green dots are already chosen for us) and dividing the vertical distance between the points (this is called the rise) by the horizontal distance between the points (this is called the run)

Rise ÷ Run

1 ÷ 2 = 0.5

Y-Intercept:

The y-intercept is where the line cuts through the vertical y-axis. We can see that this is at y = 2

Inequality:

The area above the line is shaded in. This is to show that all values greater than the line are applicable, so we will use the greater than symbol, >

A sandwich shop uses the box size shown to pack boxed lunches. They have determined that they need to use bigger boxes. If the s

borishaifa [10]

The original volume of the shape was 250. You come up with this by multiplying all sides together. So, 5x5x10=250.

We do the same for the new shape, which now has a 7 in place of the 5. So 7x7x10=490.

Lastly, we subtract the volume of the new shape from the volume of the old shape to see the difference. So, 490-250=240.

So the answer to this is 240.

Answer:

a) $P(R$

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

$P(z$

b) $P(R>110)=P(\frac{R-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{110-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{110-100}{3.606})=P(Z>2.774)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table or excel and we got:

$P(z>2.774)=1-P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the time for the step 1 and Y the time for the step 2, we define the random variable R= X+Y for the total time and the distribution for R assuming independence between X and Y is:

$R \sim N(40+60 = 100,\sqrt{2^2 +3^2}= 3.606 s)$
