A driver uses the metric system to calculate that a certain place is 1,000 kilometers away. However, the driver uses the U.S. sy

stem to calculate that his trailer truck travels 10 miles for every gallon of gasoline it contains. If the gas station attendant fills the trailer truck with 70 gallons of fuel, will the driver have enough fuel to reach his destination? Explain your answer. (Hint: 1 mile = 1.6 kilometers.)

1 gallon = 10 miles = 16 km
With 70 gallons of fuel, the driver can reach:
70 · 16 = 1,120 km > 1,000 km
 The driver will have enough fuel to reach his destination.

A Square has the vertices at (-2,6) (6,1) (1,-7) (-7,-2). At what point do the diagonals of the square intercect
DerKrebs [107]

Answer: At point (-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2})

Step-by-step explanation: <u>Diagonal</u> is a line uniting two opposite points. In a square, the diagonals intersect in a 90° and bisect each other, i.e., divides each diagonal into two segments of the same length.

In other words, the diagonals of a square meet at their midpoint, which is found as the following:

(x,y) = (\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2} ,\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})

The opposite vertices of the given square are (-2,6) and (1,-7).

So, the intersection is

(x,y) = (\frac{-2+1}{2} ,\frac{6-7}{2})

(x,y) = (-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2} )

The diagonals of square with vertices (-2,6)(6,1)(1,-7)(-7,-2) intersect at point (-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2} ).

Answer:

38.46% probability that the sample proportion will NOT be between 0.60 and 0.73

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, we have that \mu = p, \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.7, n = 50

So

\mu = 0.7, \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{0.7*0.3}{50}} = 0.0648

What is the probability that the sample proportion will NOT be between 0.60 and 0.73?

This is 1 subtracted by the probability that it is between 0.6 and 0.73.

Probability it is between 0.6 and 0.73

pvalue of Z when X = 0.73 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.6. So

X = 0.73

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

Z = \frac{0.73 - 0.7}{0.0648}

Z = 0.46

Z = 0.46 has a pvalue of 0.6772

X = 0.6

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

Z = \frac{0.6 - 0.7}{0.0648}

Z = -1.54

Z = -1.54 has a pvalue of 0.0618

0.6772 - 0.0618 = 0.6154

NOT be between 0.60 and 0.73?

1 - 0.6154 = 0.3846

38.46% probability that the sample proportion will NOT be between 0.60 and 0.73

People were asked if they were considering changing what they eat. 29% said yes
RUDIKE [14]
In this problem, you need to figure out whats 23% of 29% to find the percentage of the total group becoming vegetarians.

In order to do this, you can convert the percentages to decimals and multiply.

.23 x .29 = .0667 or 6.67%

6.67% of the total group are considering becoming vegetarians.
