A mile=5280 feet
1/40 mile*(5280 feet/1 mile)=132 feet

132 feet-------------------1/2 hour
x------------------------------1 hour
x=(132 feet*1 hour) / (1/2 hour)=264 feet/hour.

264 feet/h *(1 mile/5280 feet)=0.05 miles/ h

Solution: S=264 feet/h (≈0.05 miles/h)

Please math , help

Answer:

As both the mean and standard deviation are in the desired ranges, the tool passes the technical control.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of the batch:

The mean of the batch is the sum of all values divided by the number of items. So

$M = \frac{199+204+201+197+195+204+200}{7} = 200$

Mean in the desired interval.

Standard deviation:

Square root of the sum of the difference squared between each term and the mean, divided by the number of items. So

$S = \sqrt{\frac{(199-200)^2+(204-200)^2+(201-200)^2+(197-200)^2+(195-200)^2+(204-200)^2+(200-200)^2}{7}} = 1.18$

As both the mean and standard deviation are in the desired ranges, the tool passes the technical control.

Someone please help :(

Answer:

y = -0.2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a linear function, calculate the rate of change of the gallon of water leaving the tank and the starting level.

The function will describe the number of gallons over time or (time, gallons).

This means the function has data points (1, 7.8) and (9, 6.2).

Use the rate of change or slope formula to calculate it.

$m = \frac{7.8 - 6.2}{1 - 9} =\frac{1.6}{-8} = -0.2$

This means that for the formula y = mx+b then m = -0.2.

This also means that after losing 0.2 gallons the first hour it was at 7.8. So the starting value is 8 gallons.

The equation is y = -0.2 x + 8.
