Answer:

4/15 distance

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve this, putting distance over time

1/5 distance          x distance

----------------   = ----------------------

3/4 hour                 1 hour

Using cross products

1/5 * 1 = 3/4 x

1/5 = 3/4 x

Multiply by 4/3 to isolate x

1/5 * 4/3 = 4/3 * 3/4x

4/15 = x

The train can travel 4/15 of the distance in 1 hour

Serjik [45]

Answer:

B. 88.8

Step-by-step explanation:

let x represent class y

(x+71.2)/2=80   multiply each side by 2

x+71.2=160      subtract 71.2 by both sides

x=88.8

or

trial an error

replace x with each of the numbers and see if it plugs in.

example:

(80.5+71.2)/2=80

151.7/2=80

75.85=80?

false. incorrect

another example:

(88.8+71.2)/2=80

In politics, marketing, etc. We often want to estimate a percentage or proportion p. One calculation in statistical polling is t
inessss [21]

Answer: |p-72% |≤ 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion.

The absolute inequality about p using an absolute value inequality.:

|p-\hat{p}| \leq E , where E = margin of error, \hat{p} = sample proportion

Given:  A poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% .

|p-72% |≤ 4%

⇒    72% - 4% ≤ p ≤ 72% +4%

⇒  68%  ≤ p ≤  76%.

i.e. p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (.
