Answer:

1:24

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert inches to feet, 7.25 inches is 0.604 feet.

0.604:14.5 needs to become 1:something, so set up 0.604/14.5 = 1/x

Solve for x now by dividing 14.5 by 0.604. You get 24 for x, so the answer is 1:24 scale!

Which equation represents a line which is perpendicular to the line 2x + y = -5?
Gnesinka [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression;

   2x + y  = -5;

  The given equation must be written in a form where the slope is the negative inverse of the given one.

A line perpendicular to another will have a negative inverse slope.

   2x + y  = -5

  Equation of a straight line is generally written as;

       y  = mx + c

y and x are the coordinates

m is the slope

c is y - intercept

          2x + y  = -5

                 y  = -2x -5

 The slope of the perpendicular = \frac{1}{2}

So,

the new line;

            y  =  \frac{1}{2}x  -5

Any line with slope of  \frac{1}{2} will be perpendicular

The mean rent of a 3-bedroom apartment in Orlando is $1300. You randomly select 10 apartments around town. The rents are normall
lana [24]

Answer:

96.49% probability that the mean rent is more than $1100

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, 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 normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 1300, \sigma = 350, n = 10, s = \frac{350}{\sqrt{10}} = 110.68

What is the probability that the mean rent is more than $1100?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1100. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{1100 - 1300}{110.68}

Z = -1.81

Z = -1.81 has a pvalue of 0.0351

1 - 0.0351 = 0.9649

96.49% probability that the mean rent is more than $1100
