Answer:

140 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total length of ribbon present with Billy = 2.4 m

This ribbon is to be shared with 12 friends evenly.

Billy is doing this work of making craft for the past many years.

To find:

How many centimeters of ribbon that 7 friends will get?

Solution:

First of all, let us find out what length of ribbon will each person get.

Length of ribbon to be shared with each person = Total length of ribbon divided by total number of persons

Length of ribbon to be shared with each person = \frac{2.4}{12} = 0.2\ m

Now, The length of ribbon that 7 friends will get = 7 \times 0.2 = 1.4 m

1 m = 100 cm

1.4 m = 1.4 \times 100 cm = <em>140 cm</em>

777dan777 [17]
1.) The answer is A. 5+2x = 17. The x in the equation signifies the number of times Steven went to the big slides. The 5 represents the fixed cost of the slide. The total expenditure in the water park is 17 dollars, and the 2 represents the cost of using 1 big slide.

2.) The answer is still letter A. 5 +2x =17.

Location is known to affect the number, of a particular item, sold by an auto parts facility. Two different locations, A and B,
Mama L [17]

We have two samples, A and B, so we need to construct a 2 Samp T Int using this formula:

  • \displaystyle \overline {x}_1 - \overline {x}_2 \ \pm \ t^{*} \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2}  }  

In order to use t*, we need to check conditions for using a t-distribution first.

  • Random for both samples -- NOT STATED in the problem ∴ <u><em>proceed with caution</em></u>!
  • Independence for both samples: 130 < all items sold at Location A; 180 < all items sold at Location B -- we can reasonably assume this is true
  • Normality: CLT is not met; <u>n < 30</u> for both locations A and B ∴ <u><em>proceed with caution</em></u>!

<u>Since 2/3 conditions aren't met, we can still proceed with the problem but keep in mind that the results will not be as accurate until more data is collected or more information is given in the problem.</u>

<u>Solve for t*:</u>

<u></u>

We need the <u>tail area </u>first.

  • \displaystyle \frac{1-.9}{2}= .05

Next we need the <u>degree of freedom</u>.

The degree of freedom can be found by subtracting the degree of freedom for A and B.

The general formula is df = n - 1.

  • df for A: 13 - 1 = 12
  • df for B: 18 - 1 = 17
  • df for A - B: |12 - 17| = 5

Use a calculator or a t-table to find the corresponding <u>t-score for df = 5 and tail area = .05</u>.

  • t* = -2.015

Now we can use the formula at the very top to construct a confidence interval for two sample means.

  • \overline {x}_A=39
  • s_A=8
  • n_A=13
  • \overline {x}_B = 55
  • s_B=2
  • n_B=18
  • t^{*}=-2.015

Substitute the variables into the formula: \displaystyle \overline {x}_1 - \overline {x}_2 \ \pm \ t^{*} \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2}  }.

  • 39-55 \  \pm \ -2.015 \big{(}\sqrt{\frac{(8)^2}{13} +\frac{(2)^2}{18} } } \ \big{)}

Simplify this expression.

  • -16 \ \pm \ -2.015 (\sqrt{5.1453} \ )
  • -16 \ \pm \ 3.73139

Adding and subtracting 3.73139 to and from -16 gives us a confidence interval of:

  • (-20.5707,-11.4293)

If we want to <u>interpret</u> the confidence interval of (-20.5707, -11.4293), we can say...

<u><em>We are 90% confident that the interval from -20.5707 to -11.4293 holds the true mean of items sold at locations A and B.</em></u>
