Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
you need to divide 80 by 8 to get 10 and then divide 32 by 8 aswell. this gives you 4/10 which is equivalent to 40/100 or 40%
Write an equation of the direct variation that includes the given point (-8, -4)
Direct variation is y= kx for some constant k
Find k using the point (-8,-4)
y=kx
(-4)=k(-8) substitution
-4/-8=k(-8/-8) division property
1/2=k
equation of direct variation is y=1/2k
Answer:
The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 16 - 1 = 15
90% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of . So we have T = 1.7531
The margin of error is:
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 23.29 - 0.34 = 22.95 mpg
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 23.29 + 0.34 = 23.63 mpg
The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.
-- The filler pipe can fill 1/6 of the pool every hour.
-- The drainer pipe can drain 1/10 of the pool every hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, the filler pipe
will win eventually, because it finishes more of the pool in an hour
than what the drain pipe can finish in an hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, then every hour,
1/6 of the pool fills and 1/10 of it empties. The difference is (1/6) - (1/10).
To do that subtraction, we need a common denominator.
The smallest denominator that works is 30.
1/6 = 5/30
1/10 = 3/30 .
So in every hour, 5/30 of the pool fills, and 3/30 of the pool empties.
The result of both at the same time is that 2/30 = 1/15 fills each hour.
If nobody notices what's going on and closes the drain pipe, it will take
<em><u>15 hours</u></em> to fill the pool.
If the drain pipe had <em><u>not</u></em> been open, the filler pipe alone could have filled
the pool <em><u>2-1/2 times</u></em> in that same 15 hours. With both pipes open,
1-1/2 pool's worth of water went straight down the drain during that time,
and it was wasted.
I would say that the school should take the cost of 1-1/2 poolsworth out
of Ms. Charles' pay at the rate of $5 a week. I would, but that would
guarantee her more job security than she deserves after pulling a stunt
like that.
I hope this did not take place in California.
The answer is A because 25 percent is equivalent to .25
