A turtle swims at a speed of 12 mph. A boy swims at a speed of 4.4 ft per s.

1 answer:

4 0

To compare the speed for the both of them, it would be helpful to convert the units to the same units in this case to units of yards per minute. We calculate as follows:

12 / 60 minutes = 0.2 miles/minute
0.2 × 5280 ft = 1056 ft/minute
1056 / 3 ft = 352 yds/minute

4.4 x 60 = 264 ft/minute
264 / 3 = 88 yds/minute

352 - 88 = 264 yds/minute faster than the boy

What does it mean to eliminate a variable?

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The elimination method for solving systems of linear equations uses the addition property of equality. You can add the same value to each side of an equation.

So if you have a system: x – 6 = −6 and x + y = 8, you can add x + y to the left side of the first equation and add 8 to the right side of the equation. And since x + y = 8, you are adding the same value to each side of the first equation.

Brayden tosses a coin 500 times. Of those 500 times, he observes heads a total of 416 times. Calculations show that the probabil

Answer: The probability of this ocurring by chance is less than 0.01.

The meaning of the significance level is that it tells that there is difference of 1% level when there is no actual difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of times a coin tossed = 500

Number of times head occurs = 416

So, our Z-score would be

$Z_\alpha =\dfrac{416}{500}=0.832$

So, At significance level of 0.01, p-value of Z-score is .202704.

and p-value < 0.01, i.e. 0.202704<0.832.

Hence, the probability of this ocurring by chance is less than 0.01.

The meaning of the significance level is that it tells that there is difference of 1% level when there is no actual difference.
