Jessica Reads a story about a turtle that swam 16 feet in 24 seconds. She assumes that the time that it takes the turtle to swim
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Time (secs) => distance (ft)

1 => ⅔

15 => 10

24 => 16

45 => 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation to represent this proportional relationship is d = tk, where,

t = time

d = distance

k = constant of proportionality

To complete the table, let's find k given that the turtles swarm 16 ft (d) in 24 secs (t).

Substitute d = 16, t = 24 into the equation.

d = tk

16 = 24k

\frac{16}{24} = k (division property of equality)

\frac{2}{3} = k

Let's complete the table by substituting the value of k and the other given value of t or d, as the case may be:

For 1 sec, let's find distance (d):

d = tk

d = 1*\frac{2}{3}

d = ⅔ ft

For 10 ft, let's find the time (t) taken:

d = tk

10 = t*\frac{2}{3}

Multiply both sides by 3

10*3 = t*\frac{2}{3}*3

30 = t*2

Divide both sides by 2

\frac{30}{2} = \frac{t*2}{2}

15 = t

t = 15 secs

For 45 secs, let's find distance (d):

d = tk

d = 45*\frac{2}{3} = 15*2

d = 30 ft

Which mathematical term cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry?
Fynjy0 [20]

The mathematical terms that cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry are the parallel lines and midpoint of a line segment. A line is an infinite series of points in a row and it does not occupy any space. They are also called one dimensional since the direction is in one dimension. A point has a location but no specific size. It can describe a location but you can never determine its actual size. Imagine the point at the end of the previous sentence. And then imagine it getting smaller and smaller until it disappears. We can only use a dot to represent the point.

A financial advisor is analyzing a family's estate plan. The amount of money that the family has invested in different real esta
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> represent the amount of money that the family has invested in different real estate properties.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with parameters <em>μ</em> = $225,000 and <em>σ</em> = $50,000.

It is provided that the family has invested in <em>n</em> = 10 different real estate properties.

Then the mean and standard deviation of amount of money that the family has invested in these 10 different real estate properties is:

\mu_{\bar x}=\mu=\$225,000\\\\\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{50000}{\sqrt{10}}=15811.39

Now the lowest 80% of the amount invested can be represented as follows:

P(\bar X

The value of <em>z</em> is 0.84.

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

Compute the value of the mean amount invested as follows:

\bar x=\mu_{\bar x}+z\cdot \sigma_{\bar x}

   =225000+(0.84\times 15811.39)\\\\=225000+13281.5676\\\\=238281.5676\\\\\approx 238281.57

Thus, the amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.
