Use the Empirical Rule. The mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is miles per​ hour, with a standard de

viation of miles per hour. Estimate the percent of vehicles whose speeds are between miles per hour and miles per hour.​ (Assume the data set has a​ bell-shaped distribution.)
Approximately % of vehicles travel between 61 miles per hour and 71 miles per hour.

Answer:

68%

Step-by-step explanation:

We observe that the mean of the sample is (61+71)/2 = 66 mph which means the standard deviation of the sample is 5 because 66-5=61 and 66+5=71. The Empirical Rule states that for data observed in a normal distribution, 68% of data will fall within one standard deviation of the mean. Therefore, approximately 68% of vehicles travel between 61 miles per hour and 71 miles per hour.

The cost of a daily newspaper varies from city to city. however, the variation among prices remains steady with a standard devia
Tanya [424]

First, we establish our hypothesis:

<span>Null hypothesis H0: μ = $1.00  </span>

Alternative hypothesis Ha: μ ≠ $1.00

<span>Let’s say X  = the sample average cost of a daily newspaper = 0.96</span>

u = population mean cost = 1.00

S = sample standard deviation = 0.18

Calculating for z value:

z = (X – u) / S

z = (0.96 – 1) / 0.18

z = – 0.222

From the standard distribution table at this z value, p-value = 0.4129

Since alpha = 0.01, the decision therefore is:

<span>Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is greater than 0.01. There is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean cost of newspapers is $1. </span>

A sphere has a surface area of about 999 square millimeters. What is the radius, in millimeters, of the sphere
motikmotik

Given that, a sphere has a surface area of about 999 square millimeters.

Formula to find the surface area of sphere is,

S= 4πr² Where r = radius of the sphere and S= surface area.

Given S= 999 square millimeters.

So, we can write:

4πr² = 999

4 * 3.14 * r² = 999 Since, π = 3.14

12.56 *r² = 999

r^2=\frac{999}{12.56} Divide each sides by 12.56.

r² = 79.53821656

r = √79.53821656 Taking square root to each sides of equation.

r = 8.918420071

So, r = 8.918 Rounded to nearest thousandth.

So, radius of the sphere is 8.918 millimeters.

Hope this helps you!

Graph the following three equations on your own device and answer the questions below.
Alina [70]

Due to length restrictions, we kindly invite to read the explanation of this question for further details on functions.

<h3>What are the characteristics of each of the three functions?</h3>

a) In this part we must evaluate each of the three functions at the given value of x:

Case 1

f(10) = 5 · 10 + 7

f(10) = 57

Case 2

f(10) = 10² + 6

f(10) = 106

Case 3

f(10) = 2¹⁰ + 3

f(10) = 1027

b) In this part we must evaluate each of the three functions at the given value of x:

Case 1

f(100) = 5 · 100 + 7

f(100) = 507

Case 2

f(100) = 100² + 6

f(100) = 10006

Case 3

f(100) = 2¹⁰⁰ + 3

f(100) = 1.267 × 10³⁰ + 3

c) In this part we must evaluate each of the three functions at the given value of x:

Case 1

f(1000) = 5 · 1000 + 7

f(1000) = 5007

Case 2

f(1000) = 1000² + 6

f(1000) = 1000006

Case 3

f(1000) = 2¹⁰⁰⁰ + 3

f(1000) = (1.268 × 10³⁰)¹⁰ + 3

f(1000) = 10.744 × 10³⁰⁰ + 3

f(1000) = 1.074 × 10³⁰¹ + 3

e) The <em>third</em> function increases the fastest.

f) In this part we need to compare the <em>third</em> function with respect to the <em>first</em> and <em>second</em> functions:

5 · x + 7 = 2ˣ + 3

2ˣ - 5 · x   = 4

The solutions of the equation are x = - 0.675 and x = 4.81. The function will exceed the other <em>first</em> function at x = 4.81.

x² + 6 = 2ˣ + 3

2ˣ - x² = 3

The solution of the equation is x = 4.588. The function will exceed the other <em>second</em> function at x = 4.588.

g) Yes, <em>exponential</em> functions with bases greater than 1 will surpass <em>polynomic</em> function at any point x such that x > 0.

h) The domain represents the set of x-values of a function and the range represents the set of y-values of a function. Then, the domain and range of each function is:

Case 1

Domain - All <em>real</em> numbers.

Range - All <em>real</em> numbers

Case 2

Domain - All <em>real</em> numbers.

Range - [6, +∞)

Case 3

Domain - All <em>real</em> numbers.

Range - (3, +∞)
