5/8 * 15 = 9.375000 exactly. The closest number to 9 is 3, which is below 5. This means to round the number down to the number it is closer to. 9.375 is closer to 9 than any other number, so we round it down to 9. Since Cassidy has 10 feet of string, and she uses the same amount for each bracelet, we can assume that she has enough to make 15 bracelets, possibly even 16.
Answer:
12 in diameter bed will give better value
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Cost of cover 12 in diameter bed = $150
Cost of cover 18 in diameter bed = $300
Find:
Better value
Computation:
Area of bed = πr²
Area of 12 diameter of bed = (22/7)(6)²
Area of 12 diameter of bed = 113.14 in²
Area of 18 diameter of bed = (22/7)(9)²
Area of 18 diameter of bed = 113.14 in²
Area of 18 diameter of bed = 254.57 in²
Compare cost of bed 1 = 113.14 / 150 = 0.75 in per dollar
Compare cost of bed 2 = 254.57 / 300 = 0.84 in per dollar
So,
12 in diameter bed will give better value
Answer:
The population parameter is the average wait time for all the bank's customers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population parameter is a numerical value that defines a specific characteristic of the population. For example, the population mean describes the average value of the population, the population variance describes the variance of the population and the population proportion describes the proportion of a certain variable in the population.
The sample statistic is a numerical value that defines a specific characteristic of the sample that is selected from the population. The examples of sample statistic are, sample mean, sample variance and sample proportion.
In this case it is provided that the bank manager wants to know the average amount of time customers of his bank have to wait in line.
The experiment involved, asking 300 customers about their average wait time at the bank.
So, the parameter under study is the mean time the customers have to wait at the bank.
Hence, the population parameter is the average wait time for all the bank's customers.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The resulting course vector (magnitude 300, angle = 160° with the positive x axis (= 290° bearing)) with components (300cos160,300sin160) is the sum of the vector of the actual flight vector and the wind vector.
The wind vector has magnitude 18 and direction 46° with the positive x-axis ( it blows from - 134° with the positive x axis (= 224° bearing) into direction 46° with the positive x-axis). So its components are (18cos46,18sin46).
The course that the plane has to steer is :
(300cos160,300sin160)-(18cos46,18sin46)
=(300cos160 - 18cos46, 300sin160 - 18sin46)
=(-294.41, 89.6579)
The magnitude of this steering vector is = 307.749 knots and its direction will be:
with the negative x-axis (286.94° bearing).
Thus, the drift angle will be=290° - 286.94° = 3.06°.
Answer:
7.8 x 10^(-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the decimal so there in one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of times the decimal point is moved will be the exponent to 10. If the decimal is being moved the right then the exponent will be negative. if the decimal is being moved to the left the exponent will be positive. Therefore, since 0.0078 is converted to 7.8 the decimal point was moved the right three times making the exponent -3.
