The answer would have to be 52/87. Since it says "given", as in a geometric sense (proof), you know that the overall would have to be 87. It also adds that the students would be in the 10th grade, thus bringing us to the conclusion that 52/87 is correct. Then, simply use a calculator and put in 52/87. You're final answer, rounded to the nearest hundredth, should be 0.60.

Suppose that a jewelry store tracked the amount of emeralds they sold each week to more accurately estimate how many emeralds to

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And for this case the 95% confidence interval is given by (2.13; 2.37)

We have a point of estimate for the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper+ Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37+2.13}{2}= 2.75$

And for the margin of error we have the following estimation:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37-2.13}{2}= 0.62$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And for this case the 95% confidence interval is given by (2.13; 2.37)

We have a point of estimate for the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper+ Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37+2.13}{2}= 2.75$

And for the margin of error we have the following estimation:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37-2.13}{2}= 0.62$

What is the radius of a circle with an area of 113.04 cubic inches? Use 3.14 for pi.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

I am deeply sorry for the late answer

but the answer is The answer is

r ≈ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is r ≈ 6

A ≈ 113.04 cubic in.

this means that

d ≈ 12

and

C ≈ 37.69

Therefore

r ≈ 6

Hope this helped.

Mr. Aba builds a circular patio with a diameter of 12 feet. He covers the patio with paving stones. The cost of the paving stone

Anettt [7]

Answer:

395.85

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter is 12, then the radius must be 6. Following the formula of pi: 2 * pi * radius, our result is 37.7. 37.7 * 10.50 is 395.85

I really hope this helps. My memory of circles and pi isn't the best.

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the

jolli1 [7]

If you've started pre-calculus, then you know that the derivative of h(t)
is zero where h(t) is maximum.

The derivative is      h'(t) = -32 t + 96 .

At the maximum ... h'(t) = 0

   32 t = 96 sec

   t =  3 sec .
___________________________________________

If you haven't had any calculus yet, then you don't know how to
take a derivative, and you don't know what it's good for anyway.

In that case, the question GIVES you the maximum height.
Just write it in place of h(t), then solve the quadratic equation
and find out what 't' must be at that height.

   150 ft = -16 t² + 96 t + 6

Subtract 150ft from each side: -16t² + 96t - 144 = 0 .

Before you attack that, you can divide each side by -16,
making it a lot easier to handle:

     t² - 6t + 9 = 0

I'm sure you can run with that equation now and solve it.
The solution is the time after launch when the object reaches 150 ft.
It's 3 seconds.
(Funny how the two widely different methods lead to the same answer.)

The answer is from AL2006
