<em><u>Speed of skyler is 204 mph and speed of marcus is 212 mph</u></em>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Skyler is 104 miles away from Marcus

Therefore,

Distance = 104 miles

They meet after 4 hours

Time taken = 4 hours

Let "x" be the speed of sklyer

Marcus travels 8 mph faster than skyler

Therefore,

Speed of marcus = 8 + x

They are traveling towards each other

Since they are traveling towards each other, we can add up their speeds

Speed = x + 8 + x = 2x + 8

<em><u>The distance is given by formula:</u></em>

distance = \frac{speed}{time\ taken}\\\\104 = \frac{8+2x}{4}\\\\104 \times 4 = 8 + 2x\\\\8 + 2x = 416\\\\2x = 416-8\\\\2x = 408\\\\x = 204

Thus speed of skyler = x = 204 mph

Speed of marcus = 8 + x = 8 + 204 = 212 mph

Thus speed of skyler is 204 mph and speed of marcus is 212 mph

Suppose that the mean time that visitors stay at a museum is 94.2 minutes with a standard deviation of 15.5 minutes. The standar
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

94.2 -0.994*3.1 = 91.1186

94.2 +0.994*3.1 = 97.2814

And the 68% confidence interval is given by (91.1186, 97.2814)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that mean time that visitors stay at a museum is given by:

\bar X = 94.2

The standard deviation is given by:

s= 15.5

And the standard error is given by:

SE = \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} =3.1

And we want to interval captures 68% of the means for random samples of 25 scores and for this case the critical value can be founded like this using the normal standard distribution or excel:

z_{\alpha/2}= \pm 0.994

We can find the interval like this:

\bar X \pm ME

And replacing we got:

94.2 -0.994*3.1 = 91.1186

94.2 +0.994*3.1 = 97.2814

And the 68% confidence interval is given by (91.1186, 97.2814)

Consider the following time series data: Month 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Value 25 13 21 13 20 22 14 (a) Compute MSE using the most recent va
marishachu [46]

Answer:

a. MSE = 64.8

b. Forecast for month 8 is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

MSE = \frac{sum (error)^{2} }{n-1} \\

where error= value-forecast

Using the most recent value as the forecast for the next period, we have forecasts for the months as;

(1,-) , (2,25) , (3,13) , (4,21) , (5,13) , (6,20) , (7,22)

error = (-, -12, 8, -8, 7, 2, -8, -)

error^{2} = (-, 144, 64, 64, 49, 4, 64, -)

sum(error^{2} ) = 389

MSE = \frac{389}{7-1} = 64.833333

Therefore, MSE = 64.8 (1 decimal place).

The Forecast for month 8 is 14 since we are using the most recent value as the forecast for the next period.

Choose the Algebraic equation that matches the table
juin [17]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the equation, you need to identify the slope and y-intercept.

1) the y intercept is what y is when x=0. According to the table, it is -2.

2) the slope is the change in the y values over the change in the x values.  Notice that the y values are increasing by one for every increase in 1 in the x values, so the slope is 1/1 or 1.

3) we can then put those values into slope-intercept form which is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the intercept.

4) so the equation is y=(1)x-2 or y=x-2  (they are the same)
