Answer:
(a)The amount of fuel in dollars = $1.62
(b)The rate equivalent to in U.S. dollars per gallon = $ 1.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Reid will be driving through Spain this summer. He did some research and knows that the average price of gas in Spain is approximately 1.12 euros per liter.
1 USD = 0.69 euros
We have to find the money that we should pay in order to get the same amount of fuel.
1 euro =
1 euro = $1.45
So 1.12 euros = 1.121.45 = $1.62
(a)The amount of fuel in dollars = $1.62
(b)The rate equivalent to in U.S. dollars per gallon = $ 1.45
Answer:
The model car is 10 inches long
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we use conversion of units
Feet to inches.
Each feet has 12 inches.
The car is 15ft long.
So the car has 15*12 = 180 inches.
.5 inches = 9 in.
Rule of three
.5 inches - 9 inches
x inches - 180 inches
The model car is 10 inches long
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that the question is interested in the probability that a randomly chosen class is a Friday class with a lab experiment (2/15). That is somewhat different from the probability that a lab experiment is conducted on a Friday (2/3).
Based on our assumption, we want to create a simulation that includes a 1/5 chance of the day being a Friday, along with a 2/3 chance that the class has a lab experiment on whatever day it is.
That simulation can consist of choosing 1 of 5 differently-colored marbles, and rolling a 6-sided die with 2/3 of the numbers being designated as representing a lab-experiment day. (The marble must be replaced and the marbles stirred for the next trial.) For our purpose, we can designate the yellow marble as "Friday", and numbers greater than 2 as "lab-experiment".
The simulation of 70 different choices of a random class is shown in the attachment.

<em>Comment on the question</em>
IMO, the use of <em>70 trials</em> is coincidentally the same number as the first <em>70 days</em> of school. The calendar is deterministic, so there will be exactly 14 Fridays in that period. If, in 70 draws, you get 16 yellow marbles, you cannot say, "the probability of a Friday is 16/70." You need to be very careful to properly state the question you're trying to answer.
