Answer:

The proportion is p = 0.399

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimate of a proportion is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Desired outcomes:

286 people captured, so D = 286.

Total outcomes:

Sample of 716 suspected criminals, so T = 716.

Proportion

p = \frac{286}{716} = 0.399

Combine like terms.
Vesna [10]
To combine these terms you would add up the a's and b's.
4a+b+a is the same as 4a+a+b. Anything without a constant in front has a value of 1. You have 4a's and you need to add another a. That equals 5a's. The b is left alone since you can only add like variables.
The answer would be C) 5a +b

The dimensions of a conical funnel are shown below: A conical funnel is shown with the height of the cone as 7 inches and the ra
Nataly [62]
The first thing we should know in this case is that by definition the flow of liquid is given by:
 Q = V / t
 Where,
 V: volume
 t: time
 The volume of the cone is given by:
 V = (pi * r ^ 2 * h) / (3)
 Where,
 r: radio
 h: height
 Substituting the values we have:
 V = (3.14 * ((3) ^ 2) * 7) / (3)
 V = 65.94 in ^ 3
 We now turn off the time of the flow equation:
 t = V / Q
 Substituting values:
 t = (65.94) / (14)
 t = 4.71 minutes
 Answer:
 It will take for all the liquid in the funnel to pass through the nozzle about:
 t = 4.71 minutes
