Answer:

Check Explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample will be a representative of the entire build us in the city.

For a sample size 35, 3 have fire code violations, hence, the proportion of houses with fire code violations = (3/35) = 0.0857 = 8.57 %

The uncertainty in the estimate is given in the form of standard error.

Standard error = √[(p(1-p)/n]

n = sample size = 35, p = 0.0857, 1 - p = 0.9143

Standard error of the sample = √(0.0857×0.9143/35) = 0.1616

In terms of the population, (0.1616/35) = 0.00462

Proportion of buildings with fire code violations = (8.57 ± 0.462) %

Using appropriate properties , find 7/5 × 5/12 − 3/12 × 7/5 − 1/15
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

\frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7}{5}  \times  \frac{5}{12}  -  \frac{3}{12}  \times  \frac{7}{5}  -  \frac{1}{15}  =  \frac{7}{5} ( \frac{5}{12}   -  \frac{3}{12} ) -  \frac{1}{15}  =  \frac{7}{5}  \times  \frac{1}{6}  -  \frac{1}{15}  =  \frac{7}{30}  -  \frac{2}{30}  =  \frac{5}{30}  =  \frac{1}{6}

if an airplane travels 660 mph how long will it take an airplane to travel to a distance of 2970 miles?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

4 hours and 30 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

660 miles = 1 hour
1320 miles = 2 hours
1980 miles = 3 hours
2640 miles = 4 hours

There are only 330 miles left and that is half of 660mph so therefore it would only take half an hour for these last 330 miles.

So we know that it will be taking 4 hours, you would then add the 30 minutes which gives you 4 hours and 30 minutes.

Hope this helps!

Delvig [45]

Answer:

for #1 its the 1st and 4th box

for # 2 it's 13.5 and 20.25

Step-by-step explanation:

1st box - 10 ÷ 5 = 2 and 25 ÷ 5 = 5

4th box - 10 x 2 = 20 and 25 x 2 = 50

you have to make sure that you do the same thing for both sides of the equation

6 x 2.25 = 13.5

9 x 2.25 = 20.25

Dilation is an enlarging or shrinking of a math figure using a specific scale factor

multiply your numbers by that given scale factor to give you your answer of option 2

hope this is right I'm not completely positive about the send one.
