While shopping at the grocery store, Dan decides to estimate the amount of money he will have to pay for the items he wants to b

uy. He rounds the individual price of each item to the nearest dollar and then adds up the numbers in his head. Dan adds the following items to his shopping cart: one carton of milk for $\$3.58$, one box of cookies for $\$2.97$, one loaf of bread for $\$2.17$, and one pineapple for $\$2.54$. According to Dan's estimate, how many dollars will he be spending at the store?

Answer:

12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Mile  3.58  rounds to 4 dollars

cookies 2.97 rounds to 3 dollars

bread 2.17 rounds to 2 dollars

pineapple 2.54 rounds to 3 dollars

Adding the whole dollar amounts

4+3+2+3 = 12 dollars

Triangle abc has vertices a(0 0) b(6 8) and c(8 4). which equation represents the perpendicular bisector of bc
Ivan
Perpendicular means that the slope of one line is the opposite reciprocal of the other; bisector means that the line that is perpendicular is cutting the other one exactly in half.  So we have to find 2 things about BC:  the first is the midpoint which will then serve as the x and y coordinates in our new equation, and second is the slope of it.  First things first:  the midpoint formula is this: M=( \frac{ x_{1}+ x_{2}  }{2} , \frac{ y_{1} + y_{2} }{2} ).  Using our coordinates we fill in that formula like this:  M=( \frac{6+8}{2}, \frac{8+4}{2} ) which of course gives us a midpoint of (7, 6).  Now for the slope of the line BC:  m= \frac{4-8}{8-6} =-2.  But since we need the perpendicular slope of that we will take its opposite reciprocal which is 1/2.  Now use the x and y coordinates of the midpoint and that newly found slope and write your equation to solve for b. 6= \frac{1}{2}(7)+b.  Solving that for b gives you that b = 5/2.  So the equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of BC (drum roll, please...) is  y= \frac{1}{2} x+ \frac{5}{2}

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The sampling distribution of X, for a sample of size 16, will be approximately normal with mean 2 mm and standard deviation 0.01 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For the population:

Mean 2 mm, standard deviation 0.04 mm

Describe the sampling distribution of X (for a sample of size 16).

Sample of size 16 means that n = 16

By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normal with mean 2 and standard deviation s = \frac{0.04}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.01
