Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

A) -2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that for a slope, the slope of the line is found by using the equation:

slope = (rise/run).

In this case, find two points. For example, i will use:

(0, 2) & (5, 0). (x = 0, y = 2) ; (x = 5, y = 0)

Note that "rise" = y, and "run" = x. Plug in the corresponding numbers for the corresponding points.

(2 - 0)/(0 - 5) = slope

Simplify

(2)/(-5) = slope

-(2/5) is your answer.

Note that it does not matter where the negative sign is placed.

How many gallons of a 80% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antif
konstantin123 [22]

440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze

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

Let "x" be the gallons of 80 % antifreeze added

Therefore, "x" gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze

Final mixture is x + 80

Therefore, we can frame a equation as:

"x" gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get (x + 80) gallons of 70 % antifreeze

Thus, we get,

x gallons of 80 % + 80 gallons of 15 % = (x + 80) gallons of 70 %

x \times \frac{80}{100} + 80 \times \frac{15}{100} = (x+80) \times \frac{70}{100}\\\\0.8x + 80 \times 0.15 = (x+80) \times 0.7\\\\0.8x+12 = 0.7x+56\\\\0.8x-0.7x=56-12\\\\0.1x = 44\\\\x = \frac{44}{0.1}\\\\x = 440

Thus 440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed

A high school has 44 players on the football team. The summary of the players' weights is given in the box plot. Approximately,
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing image is attached below.

From the given information

The number of players is 44.

From the box plot;

The minimum weight = 154 pounds

The first quartile Q₁ = 159 which is 25% of the data below 159 pounds.

The second quartile Q₂ = 213 which is 50% of the data below 213 pounds

The third quartile Q₃ = 253 which is 75% of the data below 253 pounds

The maximum weight = 268 pounds.

Here, the value of 213 is the middle value and which signifies the median.

The 50% of the data are located both on the left side and the right side of the median.

Thus, the percentage of players weighting greater than or equal to 213 pounds is 50%.

The comprehensive strength of concrete is normally distributed with μ = 2500 psi and σ = 50 psi. Find the probability that a ran
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The probability that the diameter falls in the interval from 2499 psi to 2510 psi is 0.00798.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the random variable, X = "Comprehensive strength of concrete". We have information that X is normally distributed with a mean of 2500 psi and a standard deviation of  50 psi (or a variance of 2500 psi). In other words, X \sim N(2500, 2500).

We want to know the probability of the mean of X or \bar{X} that falls in the interval [2499;2510]. From inference theory we know that :

\bar{X} \sim N(2500, \frac{2500}{5}) \Rightarrow \bar{X} \sim N(2500,500)

Now we can find the probability as follows:

P(2499 \leq \bar{X} \leq 2510) \Rightarrow P(\frac{2499 - 2500}{500} \leq \frac{\bar{X} - 2500}{500} \leq \frac{2499 - 2500}{500} ) \Rightarrow\\\Rightarrow P(-0.002 \leq \frac{\bar{X} - 2500}{500} \leq 0.02 ) \Rightarrow P(-0.002 \leq Z \leq 0.02 )

Where Z \sim N(0,1), then:

P(-0.002 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) \approx P(0 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) = P(Z \leq 0.02 ) - P(Z \leq 0) \\P(0 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) = 0.50798 - 0.5 = 0.00798
