Lester’s car can go 15.4 miles on 1 gallon of gas. How far can he go on 0.7 gallon?

Answer:

He can go 10.78 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solve by creating a proportion, knowing that 15.4 miles is to one gallon the same as "x" miles (our unknown) is to 0.7 gallons. This can be set in math terms as the equation that relates these two ratios of miles per gallon:

\frac{15.4\,miles}{1\,gallon} =\frac{x }{0.7\,gallon}

and to solve for the unknown number of mile, we multiply both sides of the equation by "0.7 gallon" in order to isolate our unknown:

\frac{15.4\,miles}{1\,gallon} =\frac{x}{0.7\,gallon}\\\frac{15.4\,miles\,*\,0.7\,gallon}{1\,gallon} =x \\x=10.78\,miles

Use the cumulative normal distribution table to find the z-scores thqt bound the middle of 68% of theje area under the stanrard
padilas [110]

Answer:

Z scores between -0.995 and 0.995 bound the middle 68% of the area under the stanrard normal curve

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Middle 68%

Between the 50 - (68/2) = 16th percentile and the 50 + (68/2) = 84th percentile.

16th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.16. So X when Z = -0.995

84th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.84. So X when Z = 0.995.

Z scores between -0.995 and 0.995 bound the middle 68% of the area under the stanrard normal curve

Which ratio is porportional to 18/21? A.2/3 B. 30/35 C. 36/48 D.1/3
defon
You can solve this problem by applying the proccedure below:
 
 You have:
 
 a) 18/21=2/3
 18x3/21x2
 36≠42 (2/3 is not proportinal to 18/21).
 
 b)18/21=30/35
 18x35/21x30
 630=630  (30/35 is proportional to 18/21)
 
 c)18/21=36/48
 18x48/21x36
 864≠756  (36/48<span> is</span><span> not proportinal to 18/21)
</span> 
 d)18/21=1/3
 18x3/21x1
 54≠21  (<span> 1/3 is</span><span> not proportinal to 18/21)
</span> 
 Therefore, you can conclude that the correct option is: B.30/35

What is the length of segment AB?
AlekseyPX

Answer:

length of segment AB is 13

OR

AB = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem with c being the length of segment AB.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 12^2 = c^2

169 = c ^2 (square root both sides to get c by itself)

13 = c
