Step-by-step explanation:

2 days= 24 hours in 1 day, so multiply that by 2 to get 48 hours total.

Now find the amount of time the wild fire doubles by dividing 48 total hours by 6. So it will double 8 times

The size was 1 acre. Let's multiply by 2, 8 times

64

128

The fire will cover 128 acres in two days.

What in mathematics is a linear equation?

  • A linear equation is a first-order (linear) term plus a constant in the algebraic form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
  • Sometimes, the aforementioned is referred to as a "linear equation of two variables," where x and y are the variables.

50 × 24% = 12

50 × 14%= 7

12+ 7 = 19

50+75 = 125

19 ÷125= 15.2%

Answer:

Margin of error  for a 95% of confidence intervals is 0.261

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step1:-</u>

 Sample n = 81 business students over a one-week period.

 Given the population standard deviation is 1.2 hours

 Confidence level of significance = 0.95

 Zₐ = 1.96

Margin of error (M.E) = \frac{Z_{\alpha  }S.D }{\sqrt{n} }

Given n=81 , σ =1.2 and  Zₐ = 1.96

<u>Step2:-</u>

<u />Margin of error (M.E) = \frac{Z_{\alpha  }S.D }{\sqrt{n} }<u />

<u />Margin of error (M.E) = \frac{1.96(1.2) }{\sqrt{81} }<u />

On calculating , we get

Margin of error = 0.261

<u>Conclusion:-</u>

Margin of error  for a 95% of confidence intervals is 0.261
