Issac drove the first three hours at 44 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Average speed of Isaac = 49 mph

Let,

x be the speed during last three hours.

Speed during first three hours = 4x-172

Average = \frac{Sum\ of\ terms}{No.\ of\ terms}

49=\frac{(4x-172)+x}{2}\\\\49=\frac{4x-172+x}{2}\\\\49=\frac{5x-172}{2}

Multiplying both sides by 2

49*2=\frac{5x-172}{2}*2\\98=5x-172\\98+172=5x\\270=5x\\5x=270

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{270}{5}\\x=54

Speed during last three hours = x = 54 mph

Speed during first three hours = 4x-172 = 4(54)-172 = 216-172 = 44 mph

Issac drove the first three hours at 44 miles per hour.

e-lub [12.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph has a slope of 0.5 and a y-intercept of 5

The equation is given as:

A linear equation is represented as:

Where m represents the slope, and c represents the y-intercept

So, by comparison:

m = 0.5

c = 5

This means that:

The slope is 0.5, and the y-intercept is 5

Hence, the graph of  has a slope of 0.5, and a y-intercept of 5

The first one is greater. Adding 3.2 and 0.2 is easy! It's 3.4! Make that 3. Make 6.9, 7. 7×3=21. For the first one, make 1.9, 2. Then Make 3.15, 3. 5×5=25. That is why the first one is greater.

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Rearranged data:

5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 12, 12, 13, 13, 15, 18, 18, 27, 28, 36, 48, 52, 60, 66, 94

Start time for Suriname = 694

Mean = ΣX / n

Mean = (567 + 694) / (24 + 1) = 1261 / 25 = 50.44

B.) median start Time for initial 24 values

0.5(n+1)th term

0.5(25) = 12.5th term

(13 + 13) / 2 = 13

C.) preferred measure of center for the distribution will be the median as it shapes well in the middle of the distribution. The mean is overestimated

d) Compute the quartiles (Q1, Q2, Q3), and find the IQR for these data. Are there outliers in the time to start a business data set? If so, identify and name any outliers.

Using calculator :

Lower quartile Q1 --> 7

Median Q2 --> 13

Upper quartile Q3 --> 42

IQR = (Q3 - Q1) = 42 - 7 = 35

OUTLIER:

Lower bound : Q1 - 1.5(IQR) ; 7 - 1.5(35) = - 45.5

Upper bound : Q3 + 1.5(IQR) = 42 + 1.5(35) = 94.5

Outlier : values below - 45.5 and above 94.5

Hence, Surimanes start time is the only Outlier.

e)

Standard deviation for 24 countries :

Standard deviation = sqrt[Σ(X - mean)^2 / (N - 1)]

Usibg calculator :

Standard deviation for the 24 countries is 23.83

f)

The arc is defined by an angle of 1.05 radians, and a length of 1.05 units.

<h3 /><h3>How to get the angle in radians?</h3>

Remember the relation:

180° = 3.14 radians.

Then:

60° = (60°/180°)*3.14 rad = 1.05 rad.

Now, for a circle of radius R, an arc defined by an angle θ has a length:

L = θ*R

Then the length of this arc is:

L = 1.05*1 unit = 1.05 units.
