Because it's a positive number that can be gained by multiplying two smaller positive numbers.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ML is the short side of right triangle MLK. MJ is the hypotenuse of right triangle MKJ. This gives you a clue that the ratios of interest are the short side to the hypotenuse. All these right triangles are similar, so ...

ML/MK = MK/MJ . . . . . ratio of short side to hypotenuse is the same

ML·MJ = MK² . . . . . . . cross multiply

MK = √(ML·MJ) . . . . . the geometric mean of ML and MJ is MK

Lisa started to drive from Boston to Washington, DC, which is 440 miles away, at 8:00 AM. For the first four hours of her trip,

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total distance covered d = 440 miles

Average speed in the first 4 hours v1 = 50 mph

Total time taken for the whole trip t = 8:00 to 4:00pm

t = 16:00-8:00 = 8 hours

Firstly we need to calculate the distance covered during the first 4 hours;

d1 = average speed × time = v1 × t1

t1 = 4

d1 = 50 × 4 = 200 miles

Then we need to calculate the distance covered in the second period of the journey;

d = d1 + d2

d2 = d - d1

Substituting the values;

d2 = 440 - 200

d2 = 240 miles

The time taken for the second period of travel t2;

t2 = t -t1 = 8-4

t2 = 4 hours

Average speed = distance travelled ÷ time taken

The average speed for the second part of the trip v2 is;

v2 = d2 ÷ t2

Substituting t2 and d2;

v2 = 240 miles ÷ 4 hours

v2 = 60 mph

The average speed during the second part of the trip is 60 mph

Please answer this question for points

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, how steep the line is.

"b" is the y-intercept, where to graph hits the y-axis.

Check the scale for this grid. Since there are "1" written on the first box after the middle, <u>one square = one unit</u>.

To find "m", use $m = \frac{rise}{run}$ between the two dotted points on the graph. The first point is always on the left.

<u>"Rise" means how many squares above</u> the first point the second point is.

Since the second point is below the first point, the number is negative.

<u>"Run" means how many squares to the right</u> the second point is.

$m = \frac{rise}{run}$

$m = \frac{-2}{1}$

$m = -2$

To find "b", look at where the graph it touching the y-axis.

The y-axis is the vertical line (going from top to bottom).

Count the number of squares from the grid's middle to the graph line.

There are 3 squares.

Since the graph touches below the origin, this is a negative number.

b = -3

In the boxes, you put negative two (-2) and negative three (-3).

* Usually we would simplify the equation to y = -2x - 3.

A study of the amount of time it takes a mechanic to rebuild the transmission for a 1992 Chevrolet Cavalier shows that the mean

EastWind [94]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that 7.64% of of sample means are greater than 8.8 hours.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.

Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

The parameters are given as follows:

$\mu = 8.4, \sigma = 1.77, n = 40, s = \frac{1.77}{\sqrt{40}} = 0.2799$

The proportion of sample means greater than 8.8 hours is <u>one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 8.8</u>, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{8.8 - 8.4}{0.2799}$

Z = 1.43

Z = 1.43 has a p-value of 0.9236.

1 - 0.9236 = 0.0764.

7.64% of of sample means are greater than 8.8 hours.
