John Muir was an American naturalist born in Scotland on April 21, 1838. As one of the first advocates of the United States' wilderness preservation, Muir spent his career writing letters, essays and books about many of his experiences in the Sierra Nevada mountains, located in northern California. Muir's influence on the history of American wilderness continues to live on past his death (in the early twentieth century) as people of all ages visit and hike through the 221 miles of the John Muir Trail, named in Muir's honor. The trail begins in Yosemite National Park and concludes at Mount Whitney, which contains the highest peak of the continental United States.


The following table compares Mount Whitney"s height, in meters, to other monumental peaks of the world.


MOUNTAIN: LOCATION: HEIGHT (in meters):
Mount Whitney: California, United States: 4,418.38 meters
Mount Fuji: Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, Japan: 3,775.86 meters
Mount Everest: Great Himalayas of southern Asia: 8,849.87 meters
Mount Kilimanjaro: Tanzania, Africa: 5,894.83 meters
Mount Olympus: Mytikas, Greece: 2,919.07 meters

Use the data in the table to complete Parts A, B, and C. In your final answers, include your work for all estimates and calculations.

Part A:
Use scientific notation to estimate the following:
How many times greater is Mount Everest's highest peak than Mount Olympus's?

Part B:
Use scientific notation to calculate the following:
How many times greater is Mount Everest's highest peak than Mount Olympus's?

Part C:
Given the calculation in Part B comparing the highest peaks of Mount Everest and Mount Olympus, can you conclude that the estimate in Part A is reasonable? Answer in complete sentences.

At a self-service gas station, 40% of customers pump regular gas, 35% pump midgrade, and 25% pump premium gas. Of those who pump
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

0.150,0.595

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at a self-service gas station, 40% of customers pump regular gas, 35% pump midgrade, and 25% pump premium gas. Of those who pump regular, 30% pay at least $30. Of those who pump midgrade, 50% pay at least $30. And of those who pump premium, 60% pay at least $30.

               Regular gas          Midgrade         Premium gas      Total

Percent      40                            35                     25                   100

atleast 30   30%                         50%                 60%

a) The   probability that the next customer pumps premium gas and pays at least $30

=0.25*0.60\\=0.150

b)        the probability that the next customer pays at least $30

= P(regular and pays atleast 30%)+P(premium and pays atleast 30%)+P(midgrade and       pays atleast 30%)

=0.40*0.30+0.35*0.50+0.25*0.60\\=0.12+0.175+0.30\\=0.595

AlexFokin [52]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

The probability is  P(4 \ doors | sunroof ) =  0.40

Step-by-step explanation:

 From the question we are told that

        The number of cars packed is  n = 100

The objective of this solution is to find the probability that the car which has a sunroof also has four doors

   This probability is mathematically represented as

               P(4 \ doors | sunroof )

Baye's Rule define this probability mathematically  as

             P(4 \ doors | sunroof ) =  \frac{P(4 \ doors \ n \ sunroof )}{P(sunroof)}

   From the diagram

          P(4 \ doors \ n \ sunroof ) =  20

and     P(sunroof) =  50

So

      P(4 \ doors | sunroof ) =  \frac{20}{50}

      P(4 \ doors | sunroof ) =  0.40

3x−1−(x+3)=1 PLEASE HELP IDK HOW TO DO IT
torisob [31]

Answer:

x = 5/2

x = 2 1/2

x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 1 - (x + 3) = 1

3x - 1 - x - 3 = 1

2x - 1 - 3 = 1

2x - 4 = 1

2x = 1 + 4

2x + 5

2x = 5

x = 5/2 → 2 1/2 → 2.5 ( can be written in any of these forms depending on what you need to do)

<em>Hope this helped! :)</em>

PLEASE HELP
elixir [45]

Answer:

Ratio states that it shows the relative sizes of two or more values.

i,e a to b or a: b or \frac{a}{b}

(1)

Given the statement: A zoo has 17 monkeys and 12 chimpanzees

Write this situation in three ways, comparing the first quantity to the second quantity.

By definition of ratio:

Ratio in three ways are:

17 to 12

17 : 12

\frac{17}{12} or we can write this as 17 over 12.

therefore, Option B is correct.

(2)

As per the statement: In Largo City, about one in every nine homes contains four televisions

Write this situation in three ways in the form of ratio, comparing the first quantity to the second quantity.

By definition of ratio:

Ratio in three ways are:

4 to 9

4 : 9

\frac{4}{9}

therefore, only options C is correct.

(3)

write three ratios for 7 over 35

By definition of ratio;

We have;

\frac{7}{35}

Divide both numerator and denominator by 7 we have;

\frac{1}{5}               .....[A]

⇒ \frac{7}{35} =\frac{1}{5}

Multiply both numerator and denominator by 2 in A we get;

\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \times 2}{5 \times 2} = \frac{1}{10}

Similarly,

Multiply both numerator and denominator by 3 in A, we get

\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3} = \frac{3}{15}

Therefore, 3 ratios equal to  7 over 35 are;

\frac{1}{5} or we can write it as one-fifth

\frac{2}{10} or two -tenths

\frac{3}{15} or three over fifteen

hence, Option D is correct.

(4)

Given the statement: Jake sold 28 tickets to the school fair, and Jeanne sold 21 tickets

Number of ticket Jake sold = 28 ticket.

Number of ticket Jeanne sold = 21 ticket.

To find: Number of ticket Jeanne sold to number of ticket Jake sold.

By definition of ratio

⇒\frac{21}{28}

Therefore, the ratio in simplest form is, \frac{21}{28}
