Answer:
5mph over the speed limit
Step-by-step explanation:
In 1 hour the man drove 210/3.5=60 miles. 60mph is over the speed limit (55) by 5 mph.
10/5 = 1/x
cross multiply
10x = 5
x = 5/10
x = 1/2...u need 1/2 gallon per fish
Simplifying
8x + -6 = 7x + 10
Reorder the terms:
-6 + 8x = 7x + 10
Reorder the terms:
-6 + 8x = 10 + 7x
Solving
-6 + 8x = 10 + 7x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 8x + -7x = 10 + 7x + -7x
Combine like terms: 8x + -7x = 1x
-6 + 1x = 10 + 7x + -7x
Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
-6 + 1x = 10 + 0
-6 + 1x = 10
Add '6' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 6 + 1x = 10 + 6
Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0
0 + 1x = 10 + 6
1x = 10 + 6
Combine like terms: 10 + 6 = 16
1x = 16
Divide each side by '1'.
x = 16
Simplifying
x = 16

Question:
The lifetime (in hours) of a 60-watt light bulb is a random variable that has a Normal distribution with σ = 30 hours. A random sample of 25 bulbs put on test produced a sample mean lifetime of = 1038 hours.
If in the study of the lifetime of 60-watt light bulbs it was desired to have a margin of error no larger than 6 hours with 99% confidence, how many randomly selected 60-watt light bulbs should be tested to achieve this result?
Given Information:
standard deviation = σ = 30 hours
confidence level = 99%
Margin of error = 6 hours
Required Information:
sample size = n = ?
Answer:
sample size = n ≈ 165
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that margin of error is given by
Margin of error = z*(σ/√n)
Where z is the corresponding confidence level score, σ is the standard deviation and n is the sample size
√n = z*σ/Margin of error
squaring both sides
n = (z*σ/Margin of error)²
For 99% confidence level the z-score is 2.576
n = (2.576*30/6)²
n = 164.73
since number of bulbs cannot be in fraction so rounding off yields
n ≈ 165
Therefore, a sample size of 165 bulbs is needed to ensure a margin of error not greater than 6 hours.
129 divided by 5 is equal to 25 with a remainder of 4.
This means that she will need a total of 26 boxes, but only 25 of them will have 5 cupcakes in them. The last one will have 4 cupcakes.
