Answer:

The possible numbers of hours Justin could rent the boat (0, 40/6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represents the number of hours the boat is used,

∵ The boat costs 6 per hour,

So, the original cost of boat = 6t

Now, after getting $ 4 off

Final cost = 6t - 4

Now, final cost ≤ $ 36

$\implies 6t - 4 \leq 36$

$6t\leq 36 + 4$

$6t \leq 40$

$t\leq \frac{40}{6}$

Also, number of hours can not be negative

⇒ t ≥ 0

But, he must use the boat ⇒ t ≠ 0

Hence, the possible numbers of hours Justin could rent the boat,

$(0, \frac{40}{6}]$

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

570 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of water is the product of flow rate of water and the time taken. We are to get the volume of water used between 6 am and 9 am, that is for 3 hours (9 - 6).

We are given the flow rate at 6 am and the flow rate at 9 am, but this flow rate changes between 6 am and 9 am. To get the estimate of the water used, Let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 6 am throughout, hence:

$V_L= 100 m^3/h * 3h=300\ m^3$

Also, let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 9 am throughout, hence:

$V_R= 280 m^3/h * 3h=840\ m^3$

To get the best estimate of the total volume, let us find the average of the two values, hence:

$Volume=\frac{V_L+V_R}{2} =\frac{300+840}{2}=570\ m^3$

If a manufacturer conducted a survey among randomly selected target market households and wanted to be 95% confident that the d

Answer:

We need a sample size of least 119

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

Sample size needed

At least n, in which n is found when $M = 0.09$

We don't know the proportion, so we use $\pi = 0.5$ , which is when we would need the largest sample size.

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.09 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.09\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.09}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.09})^{2}$

$n = 118.6$

Rounding up

We need a sample size of least 119

A cylinder and a cone each have a radius of 3 in. and a height of 8 in. What is the ratio of the volume of the cone to the volum

a_sh-v [17]

I think for this answer it would be the third option. This is because to find the volume of both figures, the formula would be v=bh. they both have the same formulas and are both in proportion to each other. once you calculate the volume you will come to find that the answer is the same. this would make it 1 to 1
