Answer:

46.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Speed of A car v in miles per hour based on length L in feets ;

V = √(20L)

Skid mark (L) = 108 feets

V = √(20 * 108)

V = √2160

V = 46.475800 miles per hour

V = 46.5 mph

A recent study asked U. S. Adults to name 10 historic events that occurred during their lifetime that have had the greatest impa
Nadusha1986 [10]

Using the z-distribution, as we are working with a proportion, it is found that the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all U. S. Adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events is (0.7458, 0.7942). It means that we are 99% sure that the true proportion for all U.S. adults is between these two bounds.

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which:

  • \pi is the sample proportion.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are:

z = 2.575, n = 2000, \pi = 0.77

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.77(0.23)}{2000}} = 0.7458

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.77(0.23)}{2000}} = 0.7942

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all U. S. Adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events is (0.7458, 0.7942). It means that we are 99% sure that the true proportion for all U.S. adults is between these two bounds.

What is the next term in the sequence below?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The sequence shown in the problem is a Geometric sequence, because it has a common ratio. This means that when you multiply one of those numbers by the common ratio, you obtain the next number.

2. Then, you can calculate the common ratio as following:

r=\frac{108}{-324}=-\frac{1}{3}

3. Therefor, the next term is:

(12)(-\frac{1}{3})=-4

If 4 Maths books are selected from 6 different Maths different English books, how many ways can the seven om Maths books and 3 E
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Please see the answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Since there’s no restrictions .Therefore , the number of ways = 7!*150 = 756000

b. The number of ways such that the 4 math books remain together

The pattern is as follows:  MMMMEEE, EMMMMEE, EEMMMME, and EEEMMMM

Where M = Math’s Book and E= English Book.  

Number of ways = 4!*8!*4*150= 86400 ways.

c. The number of ways such that  math book is at the beginning of the shelf

The number of ways = 6!*4*150 = 432000

d. The number of ways such that  math and English books alternate

The number of ways = 150*4!*3! =2160 ways

e.  The number of ways such that math is at the beginning and an English book is in the middle of the shelf. The number of ways = 4*3*5!*150 =216000 ways.
