Answer: In problem 8, the lines are not parallel. In problem 10, the lines are parallel.

To determine if the lines are parallel. You need to check if the segments form on each side are proportion.

#8 check to see if: 2/1 = 3/1.2
If you cross multiply, you get 3 = 2.4 which is not true, so the lines are NOT parallel.

#10 check to see if: 6/5 = 9/7.5
If you cross multiply, you get 45 = 45 which is true, so the lines are parallel.

Two cars leave a rest stop at the same time and proceed to travel down the highway in the same direction one travels at an avera

Alika [10]

The two cars will be 5.5 miles apart after 5.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of first car = 57 mph

Time = 5.5 hours

Distance covered by first car = Speed * Time

Distance covered by first car = 57*5.5 = 313.5 miles

Speed of other car = 58 mph

Distance covered by other car = 58*5.5 = 319 miles

Difference = 319 - 313.5

Difference = 5.5 miles

The two cars will be 5.5 miles apart after 5.5 hours.

Reading proficiency: An educator wants to construct a 99.5% confidence interval for the proportion of elementary school children

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

A sample size of 345 is needed so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
