Curt because if his time was 8/9 of Ian's time then that means he ran the mile in a fraction of Ian's time, so he finished the mile quicker. Curt ran faster.

Answer:

Curt

Step-by-step explanation:

A shorter run time indicates a greater speed.  Curt's time was shorter than Ian's, so we conclude that Curt ran faster.

A food company sells salmon to various customers. The mean weight of the salmon is 37 lb with a standard deviation of 2 lbs. The
brilliants [131]

Answer:

The standard deviation for the mean weigth of Salmon is 2/3 lbs for restaurants, 2/7 lbs for grocery stores and 1/4 lbs for discount order stores.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean sample of the sum of n random variables is

\overline{X} = \frac{X_1+X_2+...+X_n}{n}

If X_1, ..., X_n are indentically distributed and independent, like in the situation of the problem, then the variance of X_1 + .... + X_n will be the sum of the variances, in other words, it will be n times the variance of X_1 .

However if we multiply this mean by 1/n (in other words, divide by n), then we have to divide the variance by 1/n², thus \overkine{X} = \frac{V(X_1)}{n} and as a result, the standard deviation of \overline{X} is the standard deviation of X_1 divided by \sqrt{n} .

Since the standard deviation of the weigth of a Salmon is 2 lbs, then the standard deviations for the mean weigth will be:

  • Restaurants: We have boxes with 9 salmon each, so it will be \frac{2}{\sqrt{9}} = \frac{2}{3}
  • Grocery stores: Each carton has 49 salmon, thus the standard deviation is \frac{2}{\sqrt{49}} = \frac{2}{7}
  • Discount outlet stores: Each pallet has 64 salmon, as a result, the standard deviation is \frac{2}{\sqrt{64}} = \frac{1}{4}

We conclude that de standard deivation of the mean weigth of salmon of the types of shipment given is: 2/3 lbs for restaurants, 2/7 lbs for grocery stores and 1/4 lbs for discount outlet stores.

To multiply a decimal number by 1,000, move the decimal point _____. three places to the left three places to the right four pla
melamori03 [73]
The number 1000 has three zeros which will move the decimal three times. But what in direction?

Well, when we multiply a number by 10, we move the decimal one place to the left.

So, the answer is three places to the left.

Name any two points on a vertical line that is 4 units to the right of the y-axis
Maru [420]
The y-axis is the line that is vertical in a graph. Four units to the right of the y-axis means that it will be four units above the x-axis, the horizontal line, which means that your x coordinate is 4, your y coordinate can be whatever you want. 
Ex. (4,1) (4,8)

Can somone pls help me with this I have a C- in math and I really need help also a like show work on each one plsss
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

1. \frac{3}{8}

2. \frac{1}{4}

3a. -\frac{1}{4}

3b. 3

3c. -\frac{4}{5}

4. m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Rises 6 inches for every horizontal change of 16 inches

Slope = rise/run

Slope = 6/16

Slope = 3/8

2.

Rises 3 feet for every horizontal change of 12 feet

Slope = rise/run

Slope = 3/12

Slope = 1/4

3a.

m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}

m = \frac{3-2}{-2-2}

m = \frac{1}{-4}

m = -\frac{1}{4}

3b.

m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\

m = \frac{-1 - 2}{-1-0}

m = \frac{-3}{-1}

m = 3

3c.

m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\

m = \frac{1 - (-3)}{-1-4}\\

m = \frac{4}{-5}\\

m = -\frac{4}{5}

4.

m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\
