Answer:

B: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given two numbers which we can use to help solve this problem

A: the number of hours the dishwasher is being used

B: how long it takes the dishwasher to do each load

using this info we can find how many loads were washed in 10 hours by dividing the time it takes for each load by how many hours were spent.

10 / 1.25 = 8

Trey reads 10 pages in 25 minutes. At the rate, how many pages will he read in 45 minutes?

neonofarm [45]

Answer: 18 pages

======================================

Explanation:

Trey reads 10 pages in 25 minutes, which means we have the ratio
10 pages: 25 minutes

Divide each part of the ratio by 25
10 pages: 25 minutes
10/25 pages: 25/25 minutes
0.4 pages: 1 minute

So Trey's unit rate is 0.4 pages per minute. In one minute, Trey reads 0.4 of a page

Now multiply both sides of the last ratio by 45
0.4 pages: 1 minute
45*0.4 pages: 45*1 minute
18 pages: 45 minutes

Which is why the answer is 18 pages
It takes Trey 45 minutes to read 18 pages
Or in other words, Trey reads 18 pages in 45 minutes.

A researcher is concerned about the impact of students working while they are enrolled in classes, and she likes to know if stud

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

(a) Point estimate = 7.10

(b) The critical value is 1.960

(c) Margin of error = 0.800

(d) Confidence Interval = (6.3, 7.9)

(e) We are 90% confident that the average number of hours worked by the students is between 6.3 and 7.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\bar x = 7.10$ -- sample mean

$\sigma=5$ --- sample standard deviation

$n = 150$ --- samples

Solving (a): The point estimate

The sample mean can be used as the point estimate.

Hence, the point estimate is 7.10

Solving (b): The critical value

We have:

$CI = 90\%$ --- the confidence interval

Calculate the $\alpha$ level

$\alpha = 1 - CI$

$\alpha = 1 - 90\%$

$\alpha = 1 - 0.90$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Divide by 2

$\frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.10/2$

$\frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.05$

Subtract from 1

$1 - \frac{\alpha}{2} = 1 - 0.05$

$1 - \frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.95$

From the z table. the critical value for $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.95$ is:

$z = 1.960$

Solving (c): Margin of error

This is calculated as:

$E = z * \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}$

$E = 1.960 * \frac{5}{\sqrt {150}}$

$E = 1.960 * \frac{5}{12.25}$

$E = \frac{1.960 *5}{12.25}$

$E = \frac{9.80}{12.25}$

$E = 0.800$

Solving (d): The confidence interval

This is calculated as:

$CI = (\bar x - E, \bar x + E)$

$CI = (7.10 - 0.800, 7.10 + 0.800)$

$CI = (6.3, 7.9)$

Solving (d): The conclusion

We are 90% confident that the average number of hours worked by the students is between 6.3 and 7.9
