120/2 = x/5....120 miles to 2 hrs = x miles to 5 hrs
cross multiply
(2)(x) = (120)(5)
2x = 600
x = 600/2
x = 300....the motorcyclist would travel 300 miles in 5 hrs

or u could do it this way..
120/2 = 60 miles per hr
60 * 5 = 300 miles

Suppose that the world's current oil reserves is R = 1820 billion barrels. If, on average, the total reserves
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

A. R = -18t + 1,820

B. 1,568 billions of barrels

C. approximately 101.11 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To make our equation, we'll use the form R = mt + b. M represents how many billion barrels of oil are being lost each year, which we know is 18 billion. So -18 will be our m. B is how many total barrels of oil there are, which is 1,820. So 1,820 will be our b. Now the equation looks like this:

R = -18t + 1,820

We can use this equation to answer Part B.

Replace the t with 14:

R = -18(14) + 1,820

Now solve for R:

R = -18(14) + 1,820

R = -252 + 1,820

R = 1,568

14 years from now, there will be 1,568 billions of barrels left.

To solve part C, we need to find how many years it will take for all of the oil to be used up. After it's all used up, the total amount of oil will be 0, so we can replace R with 0 and then solve for t:

0 = -18t + 1,820

Subtract 1,820 from both sides to isolate -18t:

0 - 1,820 = -18t + 1,820 - 1,820

-1,820 = -18t

Divide both sides by -18 to isolate the t:

-1,820/-18 = -18t/-18

101.11 = t

After approximately 101.11 years, all of the oil will be used up.

A CBS News/New York Times opinion poll asked 1,190 adults whether they would prefer balancing the federal budget over cutting ta
nikklg [1K]

Using the <u>normal distribution and the central limit theorem</u>, it is found that there is a 0.0166 = 1.66% probability of a sample proportion of 0.59 or less.

In a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.
  • By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sampling proportions of a proportion p in a sample of size n has mean \mu = p and standard error s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}

In this problem:

  • 1,190 adults were asked, hence n = 1190
  • In fact 62% of all adults favor balancing the budget over cutting taxes, hence p = 0.62.

The mean and the standard error are given by:

\mu = p = 0.62

s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.62(0.38)}{1190}} = 0.0141

The probability of a sample proportion of 0.59 or less is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 0.59</u>, hence:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{0.59 - 0.62}{0.0141}

Z = -2.13

Z = -2.13 has a p-value of 0.0166.

0.0166 = 1.66% probability of a sample proportion of 0.59 or less.
