Peter plans to build a tree house in his back yard. He needs to know how many square feet of lumber he should buy for the floor.

He considers the greatest number of people who will be in the tree house at one time, and decides to allow 20 square feet of floor space per person.
Which expression can Peter use to determine the size of the floor, in square feet, if n represents the number of people?
20n
20 + n
20 – n
20/n

Answer:

  20n

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply square feet per person times the number of persons to find square feet.

The units analysis looks like this:

\dfrac{\text{ft}^2}{\text{person}}\times \text{persons}=\text{ft}^2\\\\20\dfrac{\text{ft}^2}{\text{person}}\times n\,\text{persons}=20n\,\text{ft}^2

Answer:

20n

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of square feet of floor space is given person. If n number of people will be present in the room we can convert sqaure feet per person to square feet of lumber he should buy. This can be determined by multiplying 20 sqaure feet per person by the n number of people:

=20\cdot{n}

The expression would therefore be 20n as the number persons cancel out at the top and bottom of the denominator and numerator to leave square feet of lumber needed.

Nolan rides his bike 63 miles in 270 minutes. What is his average speed in miles per hour?
boyakko [2]
Here, to find the average rate of change, you would simply divide 270 by 63. And when that is done, you would get a long decimal. 4.285714285714286

And since you obviously can't put in such a long decimal as your answer, you would round it instead. Once rounded, you would end up with 4.29 (because the number after 8 is five, which rounds up, which would turn the 8 to 9.)

Jacob Lee is a frequent traveler between Los Angeles and San Diego. For the past month, he wrote down the flight times in minute
valkas [14]

Solution :

We know that

$H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2=\mu_3$

$H_1 :$ At least one mean is different form the others (claim)

We need to find the critical values.

We know k = 3 , N = 35, α = 0.05

d.f.N = k - 1

       = 3 - 1 = 2

d.f.D = N - k

        = 35 - 3 = 32

SO the critical value is 3.295

The mean and the variance of each sample :

Goust                      Jet red                 Cloudtran

$\overline X_1 =50.5$           $\overline X_2 =50.07143$        $\overline X_3 =55.71429$

$s_1^2=19.96154$      $s_2^2=14.68681$         $s_3^2=36.57143$

The grand mean or the overall mean is(GM) :

$\overline X_{GM}=\frac{\sum \overline X}{N}$

         $=\frac{51+51+...+49+49}{35}$

        = 52.1714

The variance between the groups

$s_B^2=\frac{\sum n_i\left( \overline X_i - \overline X_{GM}\right)^2}{k-1}$

     $=\frac{\left[14(50.5-52.1714)^2+14(52.07143-52.1714)^2+7(55.71426-52.1714)^2\right]}{3-1}$

   $=\frac{127.1143}{2}$

   = 63.55714

The Variance within the groups

$s_W^2=\frac{\sum(n_i-1)s_i^2}{\sum(n_i-1)}$

    $=\frac{(14-1)19.96154+(14-1)14.68681+(7-1)36.57143}{(14-1)+(14-1)+(7-1)}$

   $=\frac{669.8571}{32}$

  = 20.93304

The F-test  statistics value is :

$F=\frac{s_B^2}{s_W^2}$

  $=\frac{63.55714}{20.93304}$

  = 3.036212

Now since the 3.036 < 3.295, we do not reject the null hypothesis.

So there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference among the means.

The ANOVA table is :

Source       Sum of squares    d.f    Mean square    F

Between    127.1143                 2      63.55714          3.036212

Within        669.8571             32      20.93304

Total           796.9714            34
