Answer:

B) 30min

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with 2 and continue to multiply that by 2 until you get 128

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 2 = 8

8 x 2 = 16

16 x 2 = 32

32 x 2 = 64

64 x 2 = 128

Then start with what you think could be the right answer based on how many intervals there are.

You know it can't be 15 because there definitely isn't enough and you know its not 1hr because theres way more than 3.

So you're left with either B) 30min or C) 45min

It has to be B) 30min because there are 6 intervals and 30min goes into an hour twice, meaning that if every 2 intervals is an hour there are 3 hours.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

There is enough evidence to say that the true average heat output of persons with the syndrmoe differs from the true average heat output of non-sufferers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform a hypothesis test on the difference between means.

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a: \mu_1-\mu_2

μ1: mean heat output for subjects with the syndrome.

μ2: mean heat output for non-sufferers.

We will use a significance level of 0.05.

The difference between sample means is:

M_d=\bar x_1-\bar x_2=0.63-2.09=-1.46

The standard error is

s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\sigma_1^2/n_1+\sigma_2^2/n_2}=\sqrt{0.3^2/9+0.5^2/9}=\sqrt{ 0.038 } \\\\ s_{M_d}=0.194

The t-statistic is

t=\dfrac{M_d}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{-1.46}{0.194}=-7.52

The degrees of freedom are

df=n_1+n_2-2=9+9-2=16

The critical value for a left tailed test at a significance level of 0.05 and 16 degrees of freedom is t=-1.746.

The t-statistic is below the critical value, so it lies in the rejection region.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to say that the true average heat output of persons with the syndrmoe differs from the true average heat output of non-sufferers.

A teacher with 10 students has 30 lesson times available. She will teach exactly one of her students during each lesson time. Ho
natka813 [3]

There are \frac{30!}{(3!)^{10} } ways for the teacher to decide which student she will teach during each lesson time if she must teach each student exactly 3 times. Here, "!" represents the factorial.

A number's factorial is the result of multiplying the integer by each natural number below it. Factorial can be symbolized by the letter "!". Thus, n factorial is denoted by n! and is the result of the first n natural numbers.

A whole number's "n" factororial is the sum of that number and each whole number up to one.

When a question asks you to determine how many different ways you can arrange or order a given number of items, you use a factorial.

Strike441 [17]

Answer: 76

Step-by-step explanation:

well, we know that 15% of the X is 12, so we first use 6 15%, which is 90% 6X12=72. next, we would use 12/3, which is 4. 72+4=76.
