Guesstimate how much total time do Americans spend driving in one year? Express the answer in hours, years and lifetimes.

Mathematics

Drupady [299]4 years ago

Answer:

1,460 hours per year.

113,880 hours in a lifetime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.

Let's assume that on an average day Americans drive 4 hours a day. This includes going and coming from work as well as any groceries they might need to do. Since there are 365 days in a year we can multiply this by the hours a day driven.

365*4 = 1,460

We can "guesstimate" that on average an American drives 1,460 hours per year.

Based on my research the average lifetime of an American is 78 years old. We can now multiply this by the number of hours driven in a year to have an idea of the number of hours driven in a lifetime.

1,460*78 = 113,880

On average we "guesstimate" that an American drives 113,880 hours in a lifetime.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Vowels include AEIOU, so in the first box there is 2 vowel out of the 5 letters so 2/5 probability for the first box. Box 2 includes 2,4,6,8 as the even numbers out of the 9 numbers so 4/9
If you were solving the probability for each box individually that would be your answer
However if you are doing statistics and need to do it in a certain order you multiply the fractions
2/5 x 4/9 = 8/45
(.17777)
This leaves you with a 17% (8/45) chance of picking a vowel then an even number.

How do you divide factorials by lesser factorials again?
meriva

Answer:

(answer in explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

so, whenever you divide factorials, as soon as you get it to be the same ! on the top and bottom of the fraction, they cancel out like any other fraction would.

So, lets say you're dividing 55! / 50!

55! can also be thought of as 55 x 54 x 53 x 52 x 51 x 50!

\frac{55*54*53*52*51*50!}{50!} = 55 * 54 * 53 * 52 * 51

Then you can simply solve the remaining equation

( 55 * 54 * 53 * 52 * 51 = 417,451,320)

hope this helps!!

Has a slope of 2 and passing through (10, 17)
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b

We know that m = 2

We can plug in x and y values to find b

17 = 2(10) +b

b = 17 - 20

b = -3

Therefore,

y = 2x - 3
