When Gabriella runs the 400 meter dash, her finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 79 seconds and a standard de

viation of 0.5 seconds. Using the empirical rule, determine the interval of times that represents the middle 95% of her finishing times in the 400 meter race.

Answer:

(78, 80)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a normal distribution :

Mean = 79 seconds

Standard deviation = 0.5 seconds

Using the empirical rule :

95% of her finishing times :

According to the empirical rule, 95% represents 2 standard deviations from the mean that is ± 2 standard deviations from the mean score or value.

Hence ;

The interval will be defined as ;

Mean ± 2(standard deviation)

79 ± 2(0.5)

79 ± 1

(79 - 1) ; (79 + 1)

78 ; 80

A certain pickup truck gets 20mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. If the driver drives 270 mi on 11 gal of gas, determine
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

95 city and 175 highway miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The driver gets 20 mpg in city, and 28 mpg on the highway.

An equation that could be written is

20x+28y=270

This equation accounts for the distance traveled.

x+y=11

This equotion accounts for how many gallons were driven.

Multiply the bottom equation by 20, so you can solve the set of equations.

20x+28y=270

20x+20y=220

subtract them

8y=50

y=6.25

now plug this back into x+y=11

x+6.25=11

x=4.75

Now 4.75×20=95 city miles and 6.25×28=175 highway miles.

Please helppp
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To copy an angle we follow the following steps,

1). Draw a working line with the help of a straightedge.

2). Now we put a point S as the vertex of the angle.

3). Construct an arc with a radius 'r' (any length ) from vertex S which intersects the working line say at V.

4). With the same radius we draw an arc from point E which intersects the line ED and EF at G and H respectively.

5). Mark an arc from point G which intersects line EF at I.

6). Measure the distance between points G and I with compass and mark an arc from point V which intersects the previous arc say at U.

7). Now join the points S and U.

Hence we copy any angle.

Distributive property of<br> 36+ 9y
vaieri [72.5K]
Find the greatest common factor (GCF)
in this case it would be 9

divide each term by the GCF
36 / 9 = 4
9y / 9 = y

put the two "new" terms in parenthesis and the GCF in front of it
9 (4 + y)
it could also be 9 (y + 4) because of Commutative Property of Addition

How can the statement below be rewritten as a conditional statement in if-then form?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

<h2>If two angles measures 180 degrees, then they form a linear pair.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional statement should be this way, because after the word ''if'', should be placed the condition, and after the word ''then'', should be the consequence.
