Hey there! I"m happy to help!
We see that 1 inch is equal to 5.6 miles for this scale factor. If we have three inches, we simply multiply 5.6 by 3 to figure out how many miles this is!
5.6(3)=16.8
Therefore, Janet's home is 16.8 miles from her office.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
(-2 , 5)
(-1 , 0)
(1 , -4)
(3 , 0)
(4 , -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>First solve the equation:</u>
x² - 2x - 3
<em><u>Find two numbers with have a sum of -2 and a product of -3.</u></em>
-3 and 1
(x - 3)(x + 1)
Solve for x:
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
You know that the graph will cross the x-axis at -1 and 3.
(-1 , 0)
(3 , 0)
You know that the graph is positive.
<u>Complete the square to find the vertex</u>
x² - 2x - 3
(x - 1)² = x² - 2 + 1
x² - 2x - 3 = x² - 2 + 1 - 2 = (x - 1)² - 2
1 = 0
x = 1
Substitute into the original equation:
x² - 2x - 3 =
1² - (2 * 1) - 3 =
1 - 2 - 3 =
-4
(1 , -4)
<em><u>You can input any two numbers within -10 and 10. Such as -2 and 4.</u></em>
x² - 2x - 3 =
-2² - (2 * -2) - 3 =
4- -4- 3 =
5
(-2 , 5)
x² - 2x - 3 =
4² - (2 * 4) - 3 =
16 - 8 - 3 =
-5
(4 , -5)

Researchers recorded the speed of ants on trails in their natural environments. The ants studied, Leptogenys processionalis, all have the same body size in their adult phase, which made it easy to measure speeds in units of body lengths per second (bl/s). The researchers found that, when traffic is light and not congested, ant speeds vary roughly Normally, with mean 6.20 bl/s and standard deviation 1.58 bl/s. (a) What is the probability that an ant's speed in light traffic is faster than 5 bl/s? You may find Table B useful. (Enter your answer rounded to four decimal places.)
Answer:
0.7762
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve using z score formula
z = (x-μ)/σ, where
x is the raw score
μ is the population mean
σ is the population standard deviation.
Population mean = 6.20 bl/s
Standard deviation = 1.58 bl/s.
x = 5 bl/s
z = 5 - 6.20/1.58
z = -0.75949
The probability that an ant's speed in light traffic is faster than 5 bl/s is P( x > 5)
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x<5) = 0.22378
P(x>5) = 1 - P(x<5)
= 1 - 22378
= 0.77622
Approximately to 4 decimal places = 0.7762
The probability that an ant's speed in light traffic is faster than 5 bl/s is 0.7762
Dependent variables: A variable whose value depends on the value of another variable or variables
independent variable: A variable whose value determines the value of another variable or variables
