Answer:

21 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Taking CITY STREET:

Time taken to drive to nearest bowling alley = 45 minutes = 45/60 = 0.75 hours

Speed of travel = 30 miles per hour

Taking FREEWAY:

speed of travel = 65miles per hour

If the distance to bowling alley is the same along both routes, The time taken along FREEWAY will be :

Distance to bowling alley taking city center :

Speed = distance / time

30 mph = distance / 0.75 hour

Distance = 30 × 0. 75 = 22.5 miles

Since distance is the same :

Time taken along FREEWAY :

Time taken = distance / speed

Time taken = 22.5 / 65 = 0.3461538 hour

Converting to minutes :

0.3461538 × 60 = 20.769 minutes

= 21 minutes ( to the nearest minute)

Marissa deposited $3,900 into a savings account. How much will Marissa have in her account after 7 years and 6 months at a yearl

REY [17]

Marissa wants to know how much she would make using the simple interest calculation.

She will have $4,432.35

Given data

Principal = $3,900

Time = 7 years 6 months = 7.5 years

Rate = 1.82%

I = A - P = $532.35

Equation:

A = P(1 + rt)

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 1.82%/100 = 0.0182 per year.

Solving our equation:

A = 3900(1 + (0.0182 × 7.5)) = 4432.35

A = $4,432.35

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $3,900.00 at a rate of 1.82% per year for 7.5 years is $4,432.35.

Answer:

The margin of error of u is of 3.8.

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean u is between 27.4 minutes and 35 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 28 - 1 = 27

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 27 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995$ . So we have T = 2.7707

The margin of error is:

$M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.7707\frac{7.3}{\sqrt{28}} = 3.8$

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The margin of error of u is of 3.8.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 31.2 - 3.8 = 27.4 minutes

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 31.2 + 3.8 = 35 minutes

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean u is between 27.4 minutes and 35 minutes.

8.1 liters to meters

Wittaler [7]

The US equivalent of "liters to meters" would be something like
"quarts to yards", which is equally meaningless.

Liters and meters don't even measure the same thing. Liters describe
volume, whereas meters describe length or distance. They don't convert
to each other .

If volume units could be converted to length units, then you (or somebody
with a slightly better grasp of his math) would be able to figure out how many
inches of gas he put into his car last week, and the cost of a foot of milk.
