Answer:

27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In three years, Tom will be 57 + 3 = <em>60 years old</em>.

Since Tom will be twice as old as James at that time, then James will be half his age, or 60/2 = <em>30 years old</em>.

If James is going to be 30 years old in three years, then he is 27 years old now.

Answer: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom is 57 now. In 3 years he will be 60, but also twice as old as his son. 1/2 of 60 is 30. 30 minus the 3 years that hasn’t happened yet equals 27.

Answer:

The probability of finding an average in excess of 4.3 ounces of this ingredient from 100 randomly inspected 1-gallon samples of regular unleaded gasoline = P(x > 4.3) = 0.00621

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem

The mean of the sample = The population mean

μₓ = μ = 4 ounces

But the standard deviation of the sample is related to the standard deviation of the population through the relation

σₓ = σ/√n

where n = Sample size = 100

σₓ = 1.2/√100

σₓ = 0.12

The probability of finding an average in excess of 4.3 ounces of this ingredient from 100 randomly inspected 1-gallon samples of regular unleaded gasoline = P(x > 4.3)

To do this, we first normalize/standardize the 4.3 ounces

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (4.3 - 4)/0.12 = 2.5

To determine the probability of finding an average in excess of 4.3 ounces of this ingredient from 100 randomly inspected 1-gallon samples of regular unleaded gasoline = P(x > 4.3) = P(z > 2.5)

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(x > 4.3) = P(z > 2.5) = 1 - P(z ≤ 2.5) = 1 - 0.99379 = 0.00621

Answer:

Second option is correct

Arc\ length = \frac{3}{4} \pi\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Central angle = 15°

Radius of the circle = 9 in

Arc length = ?

Given formula is

\frac{Arc\ length}{Circumfrance} = \frac{n}{360}

Where n is the central angle of the sector.

Write the given formula for Arc length of the sector.

Arc\ length = Circumfrance\times \frac{n}{360}

We know that the the circumference of the circle is 2\pi r, where r is the radius of the circle,

Arc\ length = 2\pi r\times \frac{n}{360}

Now we substitute central angle value and radius value in above equation.

Arc\ length = 2\pi 9\times \frac{15}{360}

Arc\ length = 18\times \pi \frac{15}{360}

Arc\ length = \frac{18\times 15}{360} \pi               ----------(\frac{18}{360}=\frac{1}{20})

Arc\ length = \frac{15}{20} \pi

Divide the numerator and denominator by 5.

Arc\ length = \frac{3}{4} \pi\ in

Therefore the arc length of the sector is \frac{3}{4} \pi\ in
