There are 12 inches in a foot and if the swimming pool is 12 feet long, then the answer is 12*12 or 144 inches long.

We are given the length of 12ft
to get across the entire pool is also suggesting length

so to solve this problem you must convert 12 feet into inches.

there are 12 inches in 1 foot so you must multiply 12 feet by 12 inches

12 * 12 = 144

you would have to swim 144 inches to get across the entire pool.

what is the equation of a line that passes through the point (6,1) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=2x-6?

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

y = -(1/2)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the standard form on an equation: y = mx + b

A line that is perpendicular has a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the other line. We also have a point (x, y) that is on the line, so our equation begins as..

1 = -(1/2)(6) + b We must solve for b ( -1/2 is the opposite reciprocal of 2)

1 = -3 + b

4 = b

so our equation is

y = -(1/2)x + 4

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

a) $\frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{20.09} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{1.65}$

$363.90 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 4430.80$

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

$19.08 \leq \sigma \leq 66.56$

b) For this case we are 98% confidence that the true deviation for the population of interest is between 19.08 and 66.56

Step-by-step explanation:

423.6, 487.3, 453.2, 402.9, 483.0, 477.7, 442.3, 418.4, 459.0

Part a

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$

On this case we need to find the sample standard deviation with the following formula:

$s=sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^8 (x_i -\bar x)^2}{n-1}}
And in order to find the sample mean we just need to use this formula:
[tex]\bar x =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}$

The sample deviation for this case is s=30.23

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=9-1=8$

The Confidence interval is 0.98 or 98%, the value of $\alpha=0.02$ and $\alpha/2 =0.01$ , and the critical values are:

$\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=20.09$

$\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=1.65$

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

$\frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{20.09} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{1.65}$

$363.90 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 4430.80$

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

$19.08 \leq \sigma \leq 66.56$

Part b

For this case we are 98% confidence that the true deviation for the population of interest is between 19.08 and 66.56

Write the next three terms in the pattern. What is each pattern rule?<br><br>-64, +32, -16, ...

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

+8, -4, +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern rule is every other number is negative and it alternates. It would be plus, minus, plus, minus, and keep that going. The second part to the pattern rule is the next number is half of the previous. So 32 was half of 64, 16 was half of 32 so now 8 is half of 16, 4 is half of 8, and 2 is half of 4. Keep the + - + - + - pattern too.
