Another one that is even more confusing because it is a fraction.

The length of a planet's orbit around a star is approximately 17,650,000 km.

daser333 [38]

Answer:

1150 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for Average Speed is given as = Distance in Kilometers/ Time in Hours

In the question we are given the following parameters.

The length of a planet's orbit around a star = Distance = 17,650,000 km.

Time taken to complete a full orbit = 640 Earth days

Step 1

We need to convert the time in days to hours

1 Earth day = 24 hours

640 Earth days =

We cross multiply

640 Earth days × 24 hours

= 15360 hours.

Step 2

Average Speed = Distance in Kilometers/ Time in Hours

Average Speed = 17,650,000 km. /15360 hours

Average Speed = 1149.0885417 km/hr

Approximately to 3 significant figures=

1150 km/hr

Therefore, the planets average speed in kmh-1 to 3sf is 1150 km/hr

The value of y varies directly with x. If x = 5 when y = 12, what is the value of x whon y = 30?

Brrunno [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx, where k is a real constant.

When y = 12, x = 5.

=> (12) = (5)k, k = 2.4.

Therefore when y = 30,

x = y/k = (30)/(2.4) = 12.5.

The answer is 12.5.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! I don’t know how to do this problem or where to start! How do I solve this?

Leto [7]

Answer:

W = 4.95

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to start by writing down what you know, and forming a system of equations.

L= length W= width

2L+2W=14.7

L= 2.4

On the left side of the equation, you're adding all your side lengths, and on the right, is the total perimeter. (Also could be written L+L+W+W = 14.7)

You would then substitute L from the bottom equation into the top equation to get:

2(2.4) +2W=14.7

Solving:

4.8+2w=14.7

W= 4.95

To check your answer simply add all the sides together and make sure it equals your perimeter. You can also plug W and L back into the original equation.

Heights (cm) and weights (kg) are measured for 100 randomly selected adult males, and range from heights of 133 to 193 cm and

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression equation representing the relationship between height and weight of a person is:

$\hat y=-105+1.13x$

Here

y = weight of a person

x = height of a person

The information provided is:

$\bar x=167.90\ cm\\\bar y=81.47\ kg\\r (X, Y) = 0.228\\p-value=0.023\\\alpha =0.05$

The hypothesis to test the significance of the correlation between height and weight is:

H₀: There is no relationship between the height and weight, i.e. ρ = 0.

Hₐ: There is a relationship between the height and weight, i.e. ρ ≠ 0.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level, then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

According to information provided:

p-value = 0.023 < α = 0.05

The null hypothesis was rejected at 5% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that there is a relationship between the height and weight.

Compute the weight of an adult male with height, x = 172 cm as follows:

$\hat y=-105+1.13x$

$=-105+(1.13\times 172)\\=-105+194.36\\=89.36$

Thus, the weight of an adult male who is 172 cm tall is 89.36 kg.
