Answer:

  about 190,080 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The occupied space is 30 ft wide by 2 miles long, so is ...

  (30 ft)(2×5280 ft) = 316,800 ft^2

The number of people per square foot is ...

  (15 people)/(5 ft)^2 = 0.6 people/ft^2

Multiplying the area by the density, we get an estimate of the number of people:

  (316,800 ft^2)(0.6 people/ft^2) = 190,080 people

_____

It might be appropriate to round this number to the nearest 1000 or even the nearest 10,000. Either way, that estimate is then 190,000 people.

Consider the long division problem below. What error did Sam make when he computed the answer? 0.043 StartLongDivisionSymbol neg
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Sam made an error subtracting 258 from 270.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.043 / - 0.2709 /-  258 = 129. 129 - 129 = a remainder of 0 and quotient of negative 63.

Should actually answer and be 0.00061523317

So if sam rewrote this as;

0.043 / - 270.9 /-  258 = 6.15233173

There is no 63 or 6.3 or 630 answer possible and 5 decimals to the right would be absurd.

Consolidated Power, a large electric power utility, has just built a modern nuclear power plant. This plant discharges waste wat
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

We conclude that the plant should shut down.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 60

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 61.498

Sample size, n = 100

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 6

a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis  such that the power plant will be shut down when the null hypothesis is rejected.

H_{0}: \mu \leq 60\\H_A: \mu > 60

We use One-tailed(right) z test to perform this hypothesis.

b) Formula:

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{61.498 - 60}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{100}} } = 2.49

Now, z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = 1.64

Since,  

z_{stat} > z_{critical}

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the temperature of waste water discharged is greater than 60°F. We conclude that the power plant will shut down.

Calculating the p-value from the z-table:

P-value = 0.0063

Since,

P-value < Significance level

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the temperature of waste water discharged is greater than 60°F. We conclude that the power plant will shut down.

Alan has twice as many dimes as he has quarters and 10 more nickels than dimes. The remaining 35 coins are pennies. How many of
zaharov [31]

Answer:

He has 3 quarters , 6 dimes and 16 nickles

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ Dimes is d , Quarter is q , nickels is n and pennies is p

∵ Quarter = 25 cents

∵ Dime = 10 cents

∵ Nickle = 5 cents

∵ Penny = 1 cent

∵ The remaining 35 coins are pennies ⇒ 35 cents

∵ He has $2.50 = 2.50 × 100 = 250 cents

∴ The value of quarters , dimes and nickels = 250 - 35 = 215 cents

∴ 25q + 10d + 5n = 215 ⇒ (1)

∵ d = 2q  

∴ q = 1/2d ⇒ (2)

∵ n = 10 + d ⇒ (3)

Substitute (2) and (3) in (1)

∴ 25(1/2 d) + 10d + 5(10 + d) = 215

∴ 12.5d + 10d + 50 + 5d = 215

∴ 27.5d = 215 - 50

∴ 27.5d = 165

∴ d = 165 ÷ 27.5

∴ d = 6

∴ q = 1/2 (6) = 3

∴ n = 10 + 6 = 16

∴ He has 3 quarters , 6 dimes and 16 nickles
