The car was towed for 48 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount charges by Acme towing = $30

Per mile charges = $3

Total charged = $174

Let, x be the number of miles.

Towing charges + Per mile charges*number of miles = Total charged

30+3x=174

Subtracting 30 from both sides

30-30+3x=174-30\\3x=144

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{144}{3}\\x=48

The car was towed for 48 miles.

How can these models be used to find the sum 1.8 + 1.56?
enyata [817]

Answer:

The sum of  1.8 and 1.56 is 3.36 according to the model

Sum of decimals

Given the expression  1.8 + 1.56

Using the partial sum method

1.8 + 1.56 = (1.0 + 0.8) + (1.0+0.56)

Regroup as whole and decimal number

1.8 + 1.56 = (1.0 + 1.0) + (0.8 +0.56)

1.8 + 1.56 = 2.0 + 1.36

1.8 + 1.56 = 3.36

Hence the sum of  1.8 and 1.56 is 3.36 according to the model

To assess the precision of a laboratory scale, we measure a block known to have a mass of 1 gram. we measure the block n times a
vlada-n [284]
<span>n = 5 The formula for the confidence interval (CI) is CI = m ± z*d/sqrt(n) where CI = confidence interval m = mean z = z value in standard normal table for desired confidence n = number of samples Since we want a 95% confidence interval, we need to divide that in half to get 95/2 = 47.5 Looking up 0.475 in a standard normal table gives us a z value of 1.96 Since we want the margin of error to be ± 0.0001, we want the expression ± z*d/sqrt(n) to also be ± 0.0001. And to simplify things, we can omit the ± and use the formula 0.0001 = z*d/sqrt(n) Substitute the value z that we looked up, and get 0.0001 = 1.96*d/sqrt(n) Substitute the standard deviation that we were given and 0.0001 = 1.96*0.001/sqrt(n) 0.0001 = 0.00196/sqrt(n) Solve for n 0.0001*sqrt(n) = 0.00196 sqrt(n) = 19.6 n = 4.427188724 Since you can't have a fractional value for n, then n should be at least 5 for a 95% confidence interval that the measured mean is within 0.0001 grams of the correct mass.</span>
