During a test period, an experimental group of 10 vehicles using an 85 percent ethanol-gasoline mixture showed mean CO2 emission

s of 240 pounds per 100 miles, with a standard deviation of 20 pounds. A control group of 14 vehicles using regular gasoline showed mean CO2 emissions of 252 pounds per 100 miles with a standard deviation of 15 pounds. A quick comparison of the sample variances suggests that the population variances are:
a. probably equal.
b. probably unequal.
c. incomparable.

Answer:

Probably unequal  ( B )

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>experimental group = 10</u>

using 85% ethanol gasoline

mean = 240 pounds per 100 miles

standard deviation = 20 pounds

<u>control group = 14 vehicles </u>

using regular gasoline

mean = 252 pounds per 100 miles

standard deviation = 15 pounds

comparing  the sample variance of each group shows that they are probably unequal using the equation below

Variance for a sample set of data = ∑ ( x - X ) ^2 / n - 1

where n = number of events

X = mean value

x = value of events

A flower bed contains 52 roses and 48 tulips. Two flowers have wilted, what is the probability that the flower is a tulip.
Sergio [31]
First, I add 52 to 48 to get the total amount of flowers.  52 + 48 = 100.  Out of those 100, there are 48 tulips.  If one flower wilted, the probability of it being a tulip would be 48/100, or 0.48.  If a second flower wilted (with only 99 flowers left, and only 47 tulips left), the probability of it being a tulip is 47/99 or 0.474747...  To get the probability of both of those being tulips, multiply the two together.  48/100 * 47/99 = 2256/9900 (then, simplify to 376/1650)

I hope this helps! Can I have Brainliest? :)

Solve.
baherus [9]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  " 5 " .
__________________________________________________________
                                →  " a = 5 " .
__________________________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________ 

Given:  " a + 1 <span>− 2 = 4 " ; Solve for "a" ; 

4 + 2 = 6 ; 

6 </span>− 1 = 5 ;   →  a = 5 ;

To check our work:

5 + 1 − 2 = ? 4 ?? ;  

5 + 1 = 6 ; 

6 − 2 = 4.  Yes!

So the answer is:  [C]:  " 5 ". 
_________________________________________________________
                          →   " a = 5 " .
