The NYC subway system has a total of 850 miles of train tracks, and a NYC subway train has an average speed of 17.4 mph. If you

laid all 850 miles of track end-to-end in one big circle, how much time would it take to ride a NYC subway train around the entire circumference of that circle?

Answer:48.85 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of the train track is L=850\ miles

the average speed of the train is v_{avg}=850\ mph

If this track is laid on to a big circle, then the length is equivalent to the circumference

time is taken to cover the circumference is given by

\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{L}{v}\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{850}{17.4}=48.85\ hr

What is the y-intercept of a line that has a Slope of 3 and passes through point (-1, -7)
Degger [83]

Answer:

B)-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+c

sub in a point and gradient/slope to get c

-7=3(-1)+c

-7=-3+c

-7+3=c

c=-4

y=3x-4

if u looking for the y intercept make x=0

y=3(0)-4

y=-4

The hypotenuse and one of the legs of a right triangle form an angle that has a cosine of 2 2 . what is the measure of the angle
creativ13 [48]
The correct question is
The hypotenuse and one of the legs of a right triangle form an angle that has a cosine of √<span>2/2 . 
What is the measure of the angle? 

Let
</span>∅--------> the angle
cos ∅=√2/2<span>
cos </span>∅=[distance of one of the leg/hypotenuse]
[distance of one of the leg/hypotenuse]=√2/2

<span>I could say that
</span>distance of one of the leg=√2
and 
hypotenuse=2
so
<span>applying the Pythagorean theorem
</span>c=hypotenuse=2
a=√2
b=?
c²=a²+b²-------> b²=c²-a²------> b²=2²-(√2)²-----> b²=2-----> b=√2

therefore
if a=b
then 
the angle ∅=45°

the answer is the option
<span>b.45 degrees</span>

A marketing consultant observed 40 consecutive shoppers to estimate the average money spent by shoppers in a supermarket store.
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

0.998 is the probability that the average money spent by  a sample of 40 shoppers is within $10 of the actual population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Standard Deviation, σ = $21.51

We are given that the distribution of average money spend is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

We have to find:

P( average money spent is within $10 of the actual population mean.)

= P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{10\times \sqrt{40}}{21.51}}) = P(z \leq 2.94)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(z \leq 2.94) = 0.998
