How does the speed at which you drive affect your fuel economy? To find out, researchers drove a compact car for 200 miles at sp

eeds ranging from 35 to 75 miles per hour. From their data, they created the model Fuel Efficiency = 32 - 0.1 Speed and created this residual plot:

Explanation:

The formula i.e.

Fuel Efficiency = 32-0.1*speed

represents that the efficiency on very lower speeds will be affected very minor as the multiple of 0.1 which will be subtracted from 32 will be small value.

Secondly, as per attached full question and graph plot, it is clear that up to 26.5 predicted (mpg), the trend of Residual (mpg) is increasing while after 26.5, it starts to decrease nearly linearly.

It's slop can be find out by two point formula i.e.

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

=(1-2.5)/(27.5-27)

=(-1.5)/(0.5)

=-3

negative sign shows decreasing trend of second half plot

The automatic opening device of a military cargo parachute has been designed to open when the parachute is 200 m above the groun
kirill115 [55]

Step-by-step answer:

Given:

mean, mu = 200 m

standard deviation, sigma = 30 m

sample size, N = 5

Maximum deviation for no damage, D = 100 m

Solution:

Z-score for maximum deviation

= (D-mu)/sigma

= (100-200)/30

= -10/3

From normal distribution tables, the probability of right tail with

Z= - 10/3

is 0.9995709, which represents the probability that the parachute will open at 100m or more.

Thus, by the multiplication rule, the probability that all five parachutes will ALL open at 100m or more is the product of the individual probabilities, i.e.

P(all five safe) = 0.9995709^5 = 0.9978565

So there is an approximately 1-0.9978565 = 0.214% probability that at least one of the five parachutes will open below 100m

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 5, 12, and 13. What is the length of the altitude drawn to the side with length equal
mario62 [17]

Answer:  using  A= bh/2   THe height is 9.23

Step-by-step explanation:  First, with the Right Angle at the bottom, usr the sides to compute the area:  12*5=60

THen Imagine the side=13 as the base, so you have  b=13 for the formula

use the formula A= bh/2

60 = 13h/2 ==> 2(60) =13h --> 120/13 = h

h = 9.23
