<span>1) if 2 times the wind speed is increased by 2, the wind speed is still less than 46 km/h.

=> 2x + 2 < 46

2) Twice the wind speed minus 27 is greater than 11 km/h.

=> 2x - 27 > 11

Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the wind speed range. (3 points)


from 2x + 2 < 46

=> 2x < 44

=> x < 22

from 2x - 27 > 11

=> 2x > 11 + 27

=> 2x > 38

=> x > 19

The set of inequalities is

2x + 2 <46
2x - 27 > 11

The solution is x < 22 and x > 19, which is:

19 < x < 22 <----- answer

Part B: Can the wind speed in this town be 20 km/h? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A. (3 points)

Yes, the wind speed can be 20 km/h, because the solution of the inequality is the range (19,22).

Part C: The average wind speed in another town is 23 km/h, but the actual wind speed is within 4 km/h of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of wind speed in this town.

x ≥ 23 - 4 => x ≥ 19

x ≤ 23 + 4=> x ≤ 27

=> 19 ≤ x ≤ 27

=> [19,27]

What is the sum _71/6 +35/6 in the simplest terms ? Show your work
adoni [48]

Answer:

The answer in simplest term is 35.33333334.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to divide 71 and 6.

71/6 = 23.66666667.

Now we need to divide 35 and 6.

35/6 = 11.66666667.

Now we need to add the two quotients.

23.66666667 + 11.66666667 = 35.33333334.

And that is the final answer.

I hope this helps!

According to a survey, high school girls average 100 text messages daily (The Boston Globe, April 21, 2010). Assume the populati
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is:

X: number of daily text messages a high school girl sends.

This variable has a population standard deviation of 20 text messages.

A sample of 50 high school girls is taken.

The is no information about the variable distribution, but since the sample is large enough, n ≥ 30, you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal:

X[bar]≈N(μ;δ²/n)

This way you can use an approximation of the standard normal to calculate the asked probabilities of the sample mean of daily text messages of high school girls:

Z=(X[bar]-μ)/(δ/√n)≈ N(0;1)

a.

P(X[bar]<95) = P(Z<(95-100)/(20/√50))= P(Z<-1.77)= 0.03836

b.

P(95≤X[bar]≤105)= P(X[bar]≤105)-P(X[bar]≤95)

P(Z≤(105-100)/(20/√50))-P(Z≤(95-100)/(20/√50))= P(Z≤1.77)-P(Z≤-1.77)= 0.96164-0.03836= 0.92328

I hope you have a SUPER day!
