Working in minutes might give us a little more flexibility here, so we can start by converting 1 hour and 12 minutes, giving us 60 + 12 = 72 minutes for Chloe to drive 48 miles.

We can write her Chloe's rate then as 48 mi/72 min; since 48 and 72 have the factor 12 in common, we can reduce this to a rate of 4 mi/6 min. We want to find how many miles Chloe would travel in <em>60 minutes </em>at that rate. Since 60 = 6 x 10, we can scale the rate up by a factor of 10, getting us a rate of 4 x 10 = 40 mi/60 min, or 40 mph.

To find a speed in miles per hour, we need to divide a number of miles by a number of hours.

We are given 48 miles, so we already have a number of miles.

We are given the time as 1 hour and 12 minutes. We need to convert this time into hours.

1 hour + 12 minutes = 1 hour + 12/60 hour = 1.2 hours

speed = distance/time = 48 miles / 1.2 hours = 40 mph

Answer: The fourth choice, 40 mph.

A random sample of 16 one-kilogram sugar packets is obtained and the actual weights of the packets are measured. The sample mean
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The 99% two-sided confidence interval for the average sugar packet weight is between 0.882 kg and 1.224 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are in posession of the sample's standard deviation, so we use the student's t-distribution to find the confidence interval.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 16 - 1 = 15

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 35 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.905([tex]t_{995}). So we have T = 2.9467

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.9467*0.058 = 0.171

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.053 - 0.171 = 0.882kg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1.053 + 0.171 = 1.224 kg.

The 99% two-sided confidence interval for the average sugar packet weight is between 0.882 kg and 1.224 kg.

A juice factory offers its juice in both bottles and cans. A class of students on a field trip decides to compare the numbers of
Verizon [17]

Answer: 50 cases per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Select one of the points on the graph. Let's use (2, 100) in this case.

2. Divide the number of cases (y) by the amount of minutes (x) This means the equation would be 100 ÷ 2.

3. Since 100 cases ÷ 2 minutes = 50 cases per minute, that means that is unit rate, which can be expressed by y = 50x or f(x) = 50x.
