The average fleet-wide performance of light duty trucks has made constant improvement since 1980. For example, the time for the

average 1080 light-duty truck to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph was about 14.5 seconds. For 2005 models, that time was only 10.5 seconds.
A) Let m be the model year of a light-duty truck and T be the time in seconds for it to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph. Write a linear function T(m) to model the situation.


B) Use your answer to part (A) to predict the time it will take the average light-duty truck to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2015, if the trend continues.

A) T(m) = -0.16m +331.3

B) T(2015) = 8.9 . . . seconds

_____
The linear regression function of a graphing calculator can find the equation of the line easily. Or, you can use the 2-point form of the equation of a line.
.. T(m) = (10.5 -14.5)/(2005 -1980)*(m -1980) +14.5
.. T(m) = -0.16(m -1980) +14.5

Kari's paper cup holds 6 fluid ounces. If one ounce is equivalent to 29.6 milliliters, how many milliliters does her paper cup h
Degger [83]

Answer:

Equivalent measurements: teaspoon, ounce, pint, pound

You will find a table of equivalent measurements in the back of many cookbooks:

1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons  

      1 cup = 16 tablespoon = 8 ounces  

    1/4 cup = 4 tablespoons  

    1/3 cup = 5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon  

     1 pint = 2 cups = 16 ounces  

    1 quart = 4 cups (2 pints) = 32 ounces  

   1 gallon = 4 quarts

    1 pound = 16 ounces

  1/2 pound = 8 ounces

  1/4 pound = 4 ounces

Note that a pint is 16 ounces of volume, while a pound is 16 ounces of weight. The popular rhyme "A pint's a pound, the world around" can help you remember this, but keep in mind that they're not really equivalent.

Doubling a recipe can be easy (just put in two of each measurement), but what if you need to divide a recipe in half? Here are some measurements that may help:

Measurement    1/2 Measurement

1/8 teaspoon   just a dash

1 tablespoon   1 1/2 teaspoons

1/4 cup        2 tablespoons

1/3 cup        2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons

3/4 cup        6 tablespoons

Use the following information for the question. Male players at the high school, college and professional ranks use a regulation
Virty [35]

Answer:

13.567%

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question, using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 23.1 ounces

μ is the population mean = 22.0 ounces

σ is the population standard deviation = 1.0 ounce

More than = Greater than with the sign = >

Hence, for x > 23.1 ounces

z = 23.1 - 22.0/1.0

= 1.1

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<23.1) = 0.86433

P(x>23.1) = 1 - P(x<23.1)

P(x>23.1) = 1 - 0.86433

P(x>23.1) = 0.13567

Converting to percentage

= 0.13567 × 100

= 13.567%

Therefore, the percentage of regulation basketballs that weigh more than 23.1 ounces is 13.567%
