A car travels 2 1/3 miles in 3 1/2 minutes at a constant speed. Write an equation to represent the car travels in miles and minu

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

d = 0.666t , where d is in miles and t is in minutes.

d = 39.94h, where d is in miles and h is in hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A car travels $2\frac{1}{3} = 2.33$ miles in $3\frac{1}{2} = 3.5$ minutes at a constant speed.

Let the relation between the distance (d) traveled by car in miles after traveling t minutes is d = kt ......... (1)

Now, putting d = 2.33 miles and t = 3.5 minutes in the above equation we get,

2.33 = 3.5k

⇒ k = 0.666 (Approx.)

So, the equation (1) becomes d = 0.666t. (Answer)

Let us assume that the relation between the distance (D) traveled by car in miles after traveling h hours is d = Kh ............ (2)

Now, putting D = 2.33 miles and T = 3.5/60 = 0.058 hours in the above equation, we get

2.33 = 0.058K

⇒ K = 39.94

So, the equation (2) we get, d = 39.94h (Answer)

If z varies directly as x and z=30 when x=8 find z when x=4

dangina [55]

Z=kx, 30=8k, so k=30/8=15/4 and z=15x/4, so when x=4, z=15.

“Write a linear equation that is perpendicular to 2x-5y=5 and passes through the point (2,-9).

k0ka [10]

Okay so you are correct with the gradient of the perpendicular line it is -5/2 however the equation is not y= -5/2 -1 because it is a new Line and has a new y-intercept therefore its Y=-5/2 + C but you have corrected that when doing the formula and have got the right answer

Simplify 4√10 - √10 please explain how ypu got the answer

ElenaW [278]

$4\sqrt{10}-(1)\sqrt{10}=3\sqrt{10}$

2)
$4\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{10}=\sqrt{10}(4-1)=3\sqrt{10}$

Find the value of the test statistic z using . The claim is that the proportion of adults who smoked a cigarette in the past wee

kolezko [41]

Correct question is;

The claim is that the proportion of adults who smoked a cigarette in the past week is less than 0.35, and the sample statistics include n = 1168 subjects with 385 saying that they smoked a cigarette in the past week. Find the value of the test statistic

Answer:

Test statistic is z = -1.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first of all define the hypotheses:

Null hypothesis:

H0: p = 0.35, i.e 35% in the sample of 1,168 adults have smoked cigarettes in the previous week.

Alternative hypothesis:

Ha: p < 0.35, i.e less than 35% in the sample of 1,168 adults have smoked cigarette in the previous week.

The sample size is, n = 1,168 while the number of adults who smoked in the previous week would be; x = 385

Therefore, the sample proportion of adults who smoked in the previous week would be calculated as;

p^ = x/n = 385/1168 ≈ 0.3296

Now, from Central Limit Theorem for large samples, The sampling distribution of the sample proportion p^, will have a mean of μ = p = 0.35

Formula for standard deviation is;

σ = √[p (1 – p)/n]

σ = √(0.35 × (1 – 0.35)/1168)

σ = √0.0001947774

σ = 0.014

Formula for test statistic is;

z = (p^ - p)/σ

z = (0.3296 - 0.35)/0.014

z = - 1.46
