Answer:

13 bowls

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out how many bowls of nuts she can make, we divide how many cups of nuts she has by how many cups of nuts in a bowl

3 3/8 ÷ 1/4

Lets change 3 3/8 into an improper fraction

3 3/8 = (8*3 +3)/8 = 27/8

27/8 ÷ 1/4

Copy dot flip

27 /8 * 4/1

27/2

2 goes into 27 13 times with 1 left over

13 1/2

She will have 13 full bowls of nuts

Solve for x.

Ivahew [28]

ANSWER

$x=\frac{2-\sqrt{10}} {3}$

or

$x=\frac{\sqrt{10}+2} {3}$

We have

$3x^2-4x-2=0$

Since we cannot factor easily, we complete the square.

Adding 2 to both sides give,

$3x^2-4x=2$

Dividing through by 3 gives

$x^2-\frac{4}{3}x= \frac{2}{3}$

Adding $(-\frac{2}{3})^2$ to both sides gives

$x^2-\frac{4}{3}x+(-\frac{2}{3})^2= \frac{2}{3}+(-\frac{2}{3})^2$

The expression on the Left Hand side is a perfect square.

$(x-\frac{2}{3})^2= \frac{2}{3}+\frac{4}{9}$

$\Rightarrow (x-\frac{2}{3})^2= \frac{10}{9}$

$\Rightarrow (x-\frac{2}{3})=\pm \sqrt{\frac{10}{9}}$

$\Rightarrow (x)=\frac{2}{3} \pm {\frac{\sqrt{10}}{3}$

Splitting the plus or minus sign gives

$x=\frac{2- \sqrt{10}} {3}$

or

$x=\frac{\sqrt{10}+2} {3}$

The scheduled arrival time for a daily flight from Boston to New York is 9:35 am. Historical data show that the arrival time fol

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The mean is 11.5 minutes and the standard deviation is of 6.64 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The mean is:

$M = \frac{a+b}{2}$

The standard deviation is:

$S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}}$

Arrival time of 9:18 am and a late arrival time of 9:41 am.

9:41 is 23 minutes from 9:18. So the time is uniformily distributed between 0 and 23 minutes, so a = 0, b = 23.

Mean:

$M = \frac{a+b}{2} = \frac{0+23}{2} = 11.5$

Standard deviation:

$S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}} = \sqrt{\frac{(23 - 0)^{2}}{12}} = 6.64$

The mean is 11.5 minutes and the standard deviation is of 6.64 minutes

Answer:

Sampling bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Bias refers a prominent problem in statistical analysis whereby one or more analytical factor are favored than the other during an analysis which should be made random. The problem. With Graham's dissertation study is the fact that he failed to randomlyvplace his subjects or observation in the study groups, favoring a particular group with non random subset. When randomization is ejected or missing from an analysis or study, it becomes less and less representative. Here, allotting early Arrivals Into the treatment group has introduced a sampling bias as those who came later, this will also leads to less reproducibility of experiment.

map of a city uses the scale 1 cm equals 50 m. On the map, South Street is 25 cm long. If there is a traffic cone at the start

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

125 traffic cones

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the total number of meters, we can set up a proportion to find based on the ration of cm to m:

$\frac{centimeters}{meters}=\frac{1}{50}=\frac{25}{x}$ , where 'x' is the number of meters

cross-multiply: x = 25(50) or x = 1250 m

Since there is a cone every 10 m, we can divide the total number of meters by 10:

1250/10 = 125 cones
