Answer:

the scenic route take 6h 40m

Step-by-step explanation:

first we have to make an equation that represents the relationship of each route

x = scenic route

y = direct route

x = y + y * 25/100

now we have to make an equation that represents the routes over time

x + y = 12

we replace the x by what is the same in the first equation (y + y * 25/100) in the second equation

x + y = 12

(y + y * 25/100) + y = 12

2 y + 0.25 y = 12

2.25y = 12

y = 12/2.25

if we spend this in minutes multiplying it by 60

y = 12/2.25 * 60 = 320 m = 5h 20m

x + y = 12

x + (5h 20m) = 12h

x = 12h - 5h 20m

x = 6h 40m

Answer: the scenic route would take 6.67 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the time it takes the team to travel through the direct route.

The scenic route takes 25% longer than the direct route. This means that the time it will take the team to travel through the scenic route is

t + (25/100 × t) = t + 0.25t = 1.25t

If the total travel time to and from the destination is 12 hours, it means that

t + 1.25t = 12

2.25t = 12

t = 12/2.25

t = 5.33 hours

The time it will take to travel the scenic route is

12/2.25 × 1.25 = 6.67 hours

Answer: x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360  (number of sides-2 * 180)

so

14x-7+11x-2+93+76= 360\\25x + 160=360\\25x= 200\\x=8

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the 90% confidence interval is given by: (0.6350, 0.6984).

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which:

  • \pi is the sample proportion.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 90% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.9, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.9}{2} = 0.95, so the critical value is z = 1.645.

The sample size and the estimate are given by:

n = 600, \pi = \frac{400}{600} = 0.6667

Hence, the bounds of the interval are given by:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6667 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.6667(0.3333)}{600}} = 0.6350

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6667 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.6667(0.3333)}{600}} = 0.6984

The 90% confidence interval is given by: (0.6350, 0.6984).

How to know what number is a rational number?
Art [367]

Answer:

A rational number is a number that can be made by dividing two integers (an integer is a number with no fractional part).  The word rational includes the word "ratio." Rational numbers are basically numbers, either positive or negative that you get by dividing 2 numbers. Any number is a rational number, even fractions and decimals, except pi due to the fact that it's a irrational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Examples of rational numbers include, 1, which you get by dividing 1 by 1, 2 which you get by dividing 2 by 1 and 2.12, which you get by dividing 212 by 100.
