In a bookstore, 60 identical books occupy a length

Mathematics
1 answer:
n200080 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

i) 1.25m

ii) 32 books

Step-by-step explanation:

60 identical books occupies = length of 1.5m

(i) the length occupied by 50 such books on

a shelf,

If:

60 books = 1.5m

50 books = y m

60 × ym = 1.5 × 50

ym = 1.5 × 50/60

= 1.25 m

Therefore, 50 of such books occupies a length of 1.25m

(ii) the number of such books needed to completely

occupy a shelf that is 80 cm long.​

100 cm = 1m

80 cm = x m

Cross Multiply

xm = 80/100

= 0.8 m

If : 1.5 m = 60 books

0.8 m = y books

Cross Multiply

= 1.5m × y books = 60 books × 0.8m

y books = 60 books × 0.8m/1.5m

y books = 32 books

Therefore, 32 books occupies a shelf that is 80 cm or 0.8 m long

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The urban planner collects travel times from a random sample of 125 commuters in the San Francisco Bay Area. A traffic Study from last year claimed that the average commute time in the San Francisco Bay Area is 45 min. The urban planner will see if there is evidence the average commute time is greater than 45 minutes

( Here in this case, Null hypothesis will be Η :μ = 45

And the Alternate Hypoyhesis will be   H, :μ> 45 )

C. The urban planner asks a random Sample of 100 commuters in the San Francisco Bay Area to record travel times on a Tuesday morning. One year later, the urban planner asks the same 100 commuters to record travel times on a tuesday morning . The urban planner will see the difference in commute time shows an increase.

Here in this case the null hypothesis will be, H₀ : \mu _d = 0

And the Alternate Hypothesis will be   H, : \mu _d <0 The commute time after 1 year is more
