Answer: 8.3 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A hot air balloon descended 99.6 meters in 12 seconds.

then, the average rate of descent is given by :-

\text{Average rate of descent}=\dfrac{\text{\text{Distance descended }}}{\text{Time}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Average rate of descent}=\dfrac{99.6}{12}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Average rate of descent}=8.3

Therefore, the balloon's average rate of descent in meters per second = 8.3 meters per second.

Answer:

Margin of error of 0.0485 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.025 = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

In this question:

\sigma = 0.35, n = 220

The margin of error is of:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

M = 1.96\frac{0.35}{\sqrt{200}}

M = 0.0485

Margin of error of 0.0485 hours.

Oksanka [162]

9668

Explanation:

18 ones, 18x1=18

15 hundreds, 15x100 =1500

15 tens, 15x10=150

8 thousands,8x1000=8000

8x1000=800018+1500+150+8000=9668

Using the normal distribution, the area underneath the shaded region <u>between the two z-scores</u> is given by:

C. 0.6766.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

Hence, for this problem, the area is the <u>p-value of z = 0.75 subtracted by the p-value of z = -1.3</u>.

Looking at the z-table, the p-values are given as follows:

  • z = 0.75: 0.7734.
  • z = -1.3: 0.0968.

Then:

0.7734 - 0.0968 = 0.6766.

Which means that option C is correct.
