Answer:

63.5 feet/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

She first descended 1,024 feet in 17 minutes

Then she descended 500 feet in 7 minutes

The total feet descended is 1,024 + 500 = 1,524 feet

The total time to descend is 17 + 7 = 24 minutes

The average rate of change in altitude is  

Altitude descended / time

1,524 feet / 24 minutes

63.5 feet /minute

A group of 59 randomly selected students have a mean score of 29.5 with a standard deviation of 5.2 on a placement test. What is
Otrada [13]

Answer:

29.5+/-1.11

= ( 28.39, 30.61)

Therefore, the 90% confidence interval (a,b) =( 28.39, 30.61)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 29.5

Standard deviation r = 5.2

Number of samples n = 59

Confidence interval = 90%

z-value (at 90% confidence) = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

29.5+/-1.645(5.2/√59)

29.5+/-1.645(0.676982337100)

29.5+/-1.113635944529

29.5+/-1.11

= ( 28.39, 30.61)

Therefore, the 90% confidence interval (a,b) =( 28.39, 30.61)

I don't get it !!?
Ipatiy [6.2K]
For this kind of questions, what you can do is to find a point on the figure and see what translations it does.

For example, you can find the point (4,2) on the figure H. And then look at each choices to see if the statement is correct.

For this question, the answer is B. The point (4,2) finally change to the (4,-8) on the figure H'. It has a vertical translation of 10 units down.
