Answer:160 miles

Explanation:

You can work out this type of question by using the 'unitary' method, which means finding out how much for ONE.

If you set out the steps with short sentences it will be clearer.

On 15 gallons, a car can travel 400 miles÷15↓

On 1 gallon, a car can travel 400÷15=262

miles

Once you know the distance travelled on 1 gallon of fuel, you can work out the distance travelled for any number of gallons.

On 6 gallons the car can travel

6

×

26

2

3

miles.

(6 times further than on 1 gallon)

6

×

80

3

=

160

miles

What is the value of x?
wolverine [178]

Since they are supplementary angles (180°)

45° + (2x-5)° = 180°

(2x-5)° = 180° - 45°

(2x-5)° = 135°

2x° = 135° - 5°

2x° = 130°

x° = 130/2°

x° = 65°

Suppose you randomly guess on every question of a 20 question True/False test. Let x = number of questions that you answer corre
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

18.14% probability that you would get at least 12 questions correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 10, \sigma = 2.2

What is the probability that you would get at least 12 questions correct?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 12. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{12 - 10}{2.2}

Z = 0.91

Z = 0.91 has a pvalue of 0.8186.

So there is a 1-0.8186 = 0.1814 = 18.14% probability that you would get at least 12 questions correct.

Emma is standing 10 feet away from the base of a tree and tries to measure the angle of elevation to the top. She is unable to g
Vaselesa [24]
The complete question in the attached figure 

step 1
find the tree height for an angle of elevation of 55°<span> 
tan 55</span>°=opposite side angle 55°/adjacent side angle 55°
opposite side angle 55°=the tree height h1
adjacent side angle 55°=10 ft
so
tan 55°=h/10-------> h=10*tan 55°-----> h=14.28 ft

step 2
find the tree height for an angle of elevation of 75° 
tan 75°=opposite side angle 75°/adjacent side angle 75°
opposite side angle 75°=the tree height h2
adjacent side angle 75°=10 ft
so
tan 75°=h2/10-------> h2=10*tan 75°-----> h2=37.32 ft

therefore

<span>the height of the tree is within the range [14.26,37.32]
</span>
Part 1) 4.2 ft

<span>the value is not in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
 it is </span>Not Reasonable

Part 2) 14.7 ft

the value is in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
 it is Reasonable

Part 3) 24.4 ft

the value is in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
 it is Reasonable

Part 4) 33.9 ft

the value is in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
 it is Reasonable

Part 5) 39.1ft

the value is not in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
 it is Not Reasonable

Part 6) 58.7 ft

the value is not in the interval [14.26,37.32]
therefore
 it is Not Reasonable
