Buck drove 220 miles in 5 hours. What was his average rate of speed?

2 answers:

8 0

Let
Total distance = d = 220 miles
Total time = t = 5 hours
Average speed = ?

The required formula to find average rate of speed is 

avg speed = d / t = 220 / 5 

average speed = 44 miles / hour

220/5=44km/h because speed = distance/time

Find the size of each of two samples (assume that they are of equal size) needed to estimate the difference between the proporti

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The sample size n = 4225

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use maximum error formula = $\frac{z_{a} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }$

but we will find sample size "n"

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{z_{a} S.D}{maximum error}$

Squaring on both sides , we get

$n = (\frac{z_{a} S.D}{maximum error})^2$

Given 99% confidence interval (z value) = 2.56

given maximum error = 0.02

$n = (\frac{z_{a} p(1-p)}{maximum error})^2$

n≤ $(\frac{2.56X\frac{1}{2} }{0.02}) ^{2}$ ( here S.D = p(1-p) ≤ 1/2

on simplification , we get n = 4225

Conclusion:

The sample size of two samples is n = 4225

verification:-

We will use maximum error formula = $\frac{z_{a} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }$ = $\frac{2.56 1/2}{\ \sqrt{4225} }$ = 0.0196

substitute all values and simplify we get maximum error is 0.02

Solve 3x2 + 4x = −5.

Alla [95]

Move the -5 over by adding 5 to both sides
3x^2+4x+5=0
must use quadratic formula

for an equation in the form
ax^2+bx+c=0
x= $\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

a=3
b=4
c=5

x= $\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{4^2-4(3)(5)} }{2(3)}$
x= $\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{16-60} }{6}$
x= $\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{-44} }{6}$
x= $\frac{-4+/- 2\sqrt{-11} }{6}$
remember that√-1=i
x= $\frac{-4+/- 2i\sqrt{-11} }{6}$
x= $\frac{-2+/- i\sqrt{-11} }{3}$

x= $\frac{-2+ i\sqrt{-11} }{3}$ or x= $\frac{-2- i\sqrt{-11} }{3}$
