Answer:

We have to divide 3972 by 41.

This means that 3972 is the dividend and 41 is the divisor.

When we start dividing the dividend by the divisor the first digit in the quotient is placed over the tens place of the dividend since 41 is greater than 39 so, we have to take one more digit of the dividend so that it could be divisible by 41.

i..e we have to firstly consider 397 and see which multiple of 41 is smaller or equal to 397.

Paul drove 225 miles to visit his parents. The graph below shows the distance traveled and the total time of the trip. Write and

50mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The image of the motion of Paul's derive is attached already.

From the line graph we can obtain a lot of information that will help us unravel the average speed of Paul within the given time frame.

What is average speed?

Average speed is the rate of change of total distance covered with time taken .

Average speed = $\frac{total distance }{time}$

To find the total distance covered;

Distance at time 1 = 75miles

Distance at time 4 = 225miles

Distance covered between 1 - 4 = 225 - 75 = 150miles

Time taken for the journey = 4 - 1 = 3hrs

Input the values in the equation;

Average speed = $\frac{150}{3}$ = 50mph

In 2009, the American Time Use Survey found that the average American spends 2.8 hours a day watching TV. Suppose the standard d

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

4.72 hours/day

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean time spent watching TV (μ) = 2.8 hours a day

Standard deviation (σ) = 1.5 hours a day

The 90th percentile (upper 10%) of a normal distribution has an equivalent z-score of roughly z = 1.282. The minimum time spent watching TV, X, at the 90th percentile is:

$z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \\1.282=\frac{X-2.8}{1.5}\\ X=4.72\ hours/day$
