It was stated in the problem that a given volume of a is inversely proportional with the pressure of the system. It means that the as the volume increases, the pressure would decrease and as the volume decreases, the pressure would increase. We would express it as:

V α 1/P

To change it to an equality, we introduce a proportionality constant, k. We do as follows:

V = k/P

So, to determine what is asked, we need to first calculate for the value of k.

V = k/P
At V = 160 m^3 P = 108 cmHg
160 = k / (108)
k = 17280

Thus, at P = 87 cmHg 
V = 17280 / 87 
V = 198.62 m^3

Find the slope of this line: (15,7) (3,-2)<br><br> Help
Oliga [24]

Answer:

m=\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(15,\:7\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:-2\right)

m=\frac{-2-7}{3-15}

\mathrm{Refine}

m=\frac{3}{4}

A sample of 32 people yielded the information about their health insurance in the given table.Two people who provided informatio
DochEvi [55]

From the table given

17 people have managed care plan

9 have Traditional insurance

6 have no insurance

The probability of an event happening is given as the ratio of the number of the possible outcome divided by the total outcome.

If two balls are taken, the probability that at least one has traditional insurance

TN or TM or TT or NT or MT

where T is for traditional insurance

N is for no insurance

M is for managed insurance

the probability that at least one of two people picked without replacement has traditional insurance

= 9/32 * 6/31 + 9/32 * 17/31 + 9/32 * 8/31 + 6/32 * 9/31 + 17/32 * 9/31

= (54 + 153 + 72 + 54 + 153)/992

= 486/992

= 243/496

The Acme Company manufactures widgets. The distribution of widget weights is bell-shaped. The widget weights have a mean of 60 o
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Acme Company manufactures widgets, which have a mean of 60 ounces and a standard deviation of 7 ounces

We know that 95% of the area lie between -2 and 2 std deviations from the mean.

i.e. Probability for lying in the middle of 95%

Z score (60+7(-2), 60+7(2))\\=(46, 74)

Between 46 and 74 oz.

b) Between 12 and 57

convert into Z score

(\frac{12-60}{7}

P(-6.86<z<-0.43)

=0.5-0.1664=0.3336

c) X<30 gives Z<-4.83

i.e. P(X<30) =0.00
