Answer:

ratio: 104:1875

Step-by-step explanation:

toy jeep = 12.5 inches

12.5 inches = 1.04 feet

real jeep = 18.75 feet

1.04 / 18.75 = 0.055

104:1875

How to find the ratio:

1) Convert any mixed numbers to fractions.

12 1/2 = 25/2

18 3/4 = 75/4

We now have:

12 1/2 : 18 3/4 = 25/2 : 75/4

2) Convert fractions to whole numbers by eliminating the denominator.

LCD (least common denominator)(25/2, 75/4) = 4

We now have:

12 1/2 : 18 3/4 = 50/4 : 75/4

Now that the fractions have similar denominators, we can multiply both by 4 to eliminate the denominators.

Now we have 12 1/2 : 18 3/4 = 50 : 75

3) We can now reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 50 and 75 is 25

Divide both terms by the GCF, 25:

50 ÷ 25 = 2

75 ÷ 25 = 3

50 : 75 = 2 : 3

Therefore:

<u>12 1/2 : 18 3/4 = 2 : 3</u>

A random sample of n people selected from a large population will be asked whether they have read a novel in the past year. Let
kozerog [31]

Answer:

b. A binomial variable with 25 independent trials

Step-by-step explanation:

The conducted experiment is binomial experiment because outcome can be divided into success or failure. The success would be the people who read novel in the past year and also responses are independent of each other. We have to find the number of trials n in the given problem.

we are given that variance of R=6 and p=probability of success=0.4.

We know that variance of binomial distribution is

Variance=npq

where q=1-p=1-0.4=0.6.

By putting the values in variance formula, we can get the value of n.

6=n*0.4*0.6

6=0.24*n

n=6/0.24

n=25

Hence, random variable R is a binomial variable with 25 independent trials.

Elena plans to ride her bicycle 5 miles to a park and then ride several times
Aneli [31]

Option A

Elena need to ride around the  loop four or more times

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Elena plans to ride her bicycle 5 miles to a park and then ride several times  around a loop in the park that is 3 miles long

Then she will ride the same way  home

She wants to ride a total of at least 22 miles

<em><u>Given inequality is:</u></em>

3t + 10 > 22

Where "t" is the number of times Elena rides around the loop

<em><u>Solve fot "t" in given inequality</u></em>

3t + 10 > 22

Subtract 10 both sides

3t + 10 - 10 > 22 - 10

3t > 12

Divide by 3 both sides

t > 4

The solution is all real numbers greater than or equal to 4

Which means 4 or more times

Therefore, Option A is correct.
