Answer:

28 miles in 7 minutes, 240 miles in an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first simplify the rate to miles per minute. Since the plane goes 12 miles in 3 minutes, we can divide it by 3 to find how much it travels in one minute. 12 divided by 3 is 4 and 3 divided by 3 is 1

The plane travels 4 miles a minute

To find how much it travels in 7 minutes, multiply by 7

4x7 is 28

28 miles in 7 minutes

To find an hour, multiply by 60

4x60= 240

240 miles in an hour

$\dfrac{4}{10}-\dfrac{2}{15}=\dfrac{4\cdot 15-10\cdot 2}{10\cdot 15}\\\\=\dfrac{40}{150}=\dfrac{4}{15}$

The correct choice appears to be ...

... A) 4/15

The weights of bats in a zoo are normally distributed with a mean of 2.2 pounds and a standard deviation of 0.3 pounds. About wh

GalinKa [24]

Mean : m = 2.2
Standard deviation: s = 0.3
m - 1 s = 2.2 - 0.3 = 1.9
m + 1 s = 2.2 + 0.3 = 2.5
For the normal distribution the values less than 1 standard deviation away from the mean account for 68.27 % of the set.
Answer: D ) 68 %

Show that a sequence {sn} coverages to a limit L if and only if the sequence {sn-L} coverages to zero.

Andreyy89

Let ${s_n}_{n\in\Bbb N}$ be a sequence that converges to $L$ . This means for any $\varepsilon>0$ , there is some $N$ such that $|s_n-L|$ for all $n>N$ . From this inequality we see that $|(s_n-L)-0|$ , so it follows that $s_n-L\to0$ .

On the other hand, let ${s_n-L}$ be a sequence that converges to 0. This means $|(s_n-L)-0|$ for all large enough $n$ , and we get the simpler inequality for free, $|s_n-L|$ , so it follows that $s_n\to L$ .

Answer:

62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

P = (6.50f) - 100

All you have to do is plug in 25 for f in the equation and solve for P.

P = (6.50*25) - 100

P = 162.5 - 100

P = 62.5
