<h3>Answer: D) 4.25</h3>

====================================

Work Shown:

x - 3.4 > 17/68

x - 3.4 > 0.25

x - 3.4 + 3.4 > 0.25 + 3.4 .... add 3.4 to both sides

x > 3.65

Any number larger than 3.65 will work in place of x

Choice A does not work since 3.4 is not larger than 3.65

Choice B and choice C is the same story as well since 21/68 = 0.3088 approximately

Only choice D is larger than 3.65

Answer: 0.4667

Step-by-step explanation:

According to 68–95–99.7 rule , About 99.7% of all data values lies with in 3 standard deviations from population mean ( $\mu$ ).

Here , margin of error = 3s , where s is standard deviation.

As per given , we have want our sample mean $\overline{x}$ to estimate μ μ with an error of no more than 1.4 point in either direction.

If 99.7% of all samples give an $\overline{x}$ within 1.4 , it means that

$3s=1.4$

Divide boths ides by 3 , we get

$s=0.466666666667\approx0.4667$

Hence, So $\overline{x}$ must have 0.4667 as standard deviation so that 99.7 % 99.7% of all samples give an $\overline{x}$ within 1.4 point of μ .

The rise and span for a roof are shown. The pitch of a roof is the ratio of the rise to the half-span. If the rise is 8 feet and

Effectus [21]

<span>Half-span is half of span. Pitch of the roof is calculated as rise/(span/2). In this case, rise is 8 feet and span is 30 feet. So, the pitch can be calculated as 8/(30/2) or 8/15. Pitch is normally represented as the number of inches of rise per foot. So, to reduce 8/15 to match a foot, we multiply it by 12. So, (8/15) * 12 gives us 6.4 inches of rise per foot.</span>

damaskus [11]

Answer:

$n_{tot}=44rev$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we can make use of the following formula:

$\theta=(\frac{\omega_{f}+\omega_{0}}{2})t$

where θ is the total angle the basket has turned, ω is the angular velocity and t is the time.

Generally theta is written in radians and omega is written in radians per second. Now, since the revolutions are directly related to the radians and they want us to write our answer in revolutions, we can directly use the provided speeds in the formula, so we can rewrite it as:

$n=(\frac{f_{f}+f_{0}}{2})t$
