Answer:

3769.92 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of the wheel, d= 60 ft

We know the perimeter of the wheel is,

= πd

= 3.1416*60

= 188.496 ft

Wheel travel for 5 minutes. So the wheel travel,

= 5*60

= 300 sec

The wheel rotates in every 15 seconds. So the wheel rotates,

= 300/15

= 20 times

In one rotation, the wheel travels its perimeter. so is 5 minutes it travels,

= 188.496*20

= 3769.92 ft

How do you solve for y in the equation: <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7By%7D%20%3Dy-6" id="TexFormula1" title
kozerog [31]

No it isn't.

Explanation:

x/y * y = (y-6) * y

x = y^2 - 6y

A function gives just one y for every x

In this case there will always be 2 y's for every x

Example:

y can be

y = 6

or

y =−6

(0,-6) & (0,6)

Use the confidence interval to find the estimated margin of error. Then find the sample mean. A biologist reports a confidence i
mash [69]

Complete Question

A biologist reports a confidence interval of (3.5,4.9) when estimating the mean height (in centimeters) of a sample of seedlings. What is the estimated margin of error and the sample mean?

Answer:

The  margin of error is  E = 0.7

The  sample mean is  \=  x  =  4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question we are told that

   The  upper limit is  k  =  4.9

    The  lower limit is  r = 3.5

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

      E =  \frac{k - r}{ 2}

      E = \frac{ 4.9  -  3.5 }{2}

     E = 0.7

Generally the sample mean is mathematically evaluated as

        \=  x = k  -  E

=>    \= x  =  4.9 - 0.7

=>    \=  x  =  4.2
