The expression rt can be used to find the distance traveled by an object that has an average speed of r overtime t. How many mil

Answer:

d = 12.5 \frac{mi}{hr} *2.2 hr = 27.5 mi

So then after 2.2 hours with an average speed of 12.5 mi/hr the hot air ballon will travel 27.5 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we know that the distance traveled by an object is given by:

d = rt  (1)

Where d is the distance r the average speed and t the time.

From the info given we know that t = 2.2 hours and r= 12.5 \frac{mi}{hr}

And replacing into formula (1) we got:

d = 12.5 \frac{mi}{hr} *2.2 hr = 27.5 mi

So then after 2.2 hours with an average speed of 12.5 mi/hr the hot air ballon will travel 27.5 mi

The cost of renting a table at the flea market is based on a fixed price per day plus an initial registration fee. If it costs $
Simora [160]

Answer:

c = 15d + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

This can be represented by an equation of a line, where the number of days is our x-values(d), and the price is our y-values(c).

The price for one day ($45) and the price for 4 days($90) are specific points on that line.

The points are (1, 45) and (4, 90).

We can first find the slope of the line:

  • As the price rises 45, the days increase by 3
  • Slope = rise/run
  • Slope = 45/3
  • Slope = 15

Now we can find the base price, by plugging the slope and a point into the equation y = mx + b.

Solve for b:

  • y = mx + b
  • 45 = 15(1) + b
  • 45 = 15 + b
  • 30 = b

The base price (b) is 30.

The equation is \text{\boxed{c = 15d + 30}}

In a given year, the average annual salary of a NFL football player was $189,000 with a standard deviation of $20,500. If a samp
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

15.15% probability that the sample mean will be $192,000 or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 189000, \sigma = 20500, n = 50, s = \frac{20500}{\sqrt{50}} = 2899.14

The probability that the sample mean will be $192,000 or more is

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of z when X = 192000. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{192000 - 189000}{2899.14}

Z = 1.03

Z = 1.03 has a pvalue of 0.8485.

1-0.8485 = 0.1515

15.15% probability that the sample mean will be $192,000 or more.
