Answer: 0.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A recent Harris Poll survey of 1010 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 627 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige.

i.e. The sample size of U.S. adults : n= 1010

The number of U.S. adults consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige : x= 627

Now , the probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige will be :

\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}\\\\=\dfrac{627}{1010}=0.620792079208\approx0.62  [ To the nearest hundredth]

Hence, the estimated probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige = 0.62

Write an equation to solve the following. Show all your work, including the steps for solving the equation and checking your ans
SpyIntel [72]
Equation
-4x + 16 = -116

solve for x
-4x + 16 = -116

subtract 16 to both sides
-4x + 16 - 16 = -116 - 16

simplify
-4x = -132

divide -4 to both sides
-4x/-4 = -132/-4

simplify
x = 33

answer: the number is 33

A driver driving a business trip of 240 miles would have reached his destination if he'd been able to drive 12 mph faster than h
mariarad [96]

The average speed of his trip is = 12 mile/ hour

The total distance covered by the driver = 240 miles

The rate at which he traveled = 12 miles per hour

Therefore, the time he used to cover his distance

= 240/12

= 20 hrs

But average speed = distance/ time

= 240/ 20

= 12 miles/ hour

Therefore, the average speed of his trip is = 12 mile/ hour

What word best describes the slope of the line passing through points (5,12) and (5,-13
Rama09 [41]

The formulat for finding the slop is

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 -x1)

so if we put the values of our two given points

m = (-13 -12) / (5 - 5)  = -25/0 = undefined

so our slop is undefined which means it is a vertical line
