Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

6d = 8(12 - 6)

Step 2: Solve for d

(Parenthesis) Subtract: 6d = 8(6)
Multiply: 6d = 48
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 6 on both sides: d = 8

Parallel lines will never touch each other while perpendicular forms like an X shape. The slope for the parallel is the same while the perpendicular is a negative reciprocal. (Ex for negative reciprocal. 2/4=4/2)

Wings of fire fans come on down to this question

Answer:

I've had this debate with my friend so many times! In personal belief, I came to the conclusion that it would most likely be an icewing. Being that rain is a main component of ice, and ice is dominant over rain. My friend tried to say it would be a snowwing, and she wouldn't explain her reasoning.

The distance between Branch A and Branch B is given by the Pythagoras theorem

AB² = (Vertical Distance)² + (Horizontal Distance)²
AB² = (4-1)² + (1 - -3)²
AB² = 3² + 4²
AB² = 9 + 16
AB² = 25
AB = 5

BC² = (Vertical distance)² + (Horizontal distance)²
BC² = (-2 - 4)² + (5-1)²
BC² = (-6)² + (4)²
BC² = 36 + 16
BC² = 52
BC = 7.21

Half way of BC = 7.21 ÷ 2 = 3.6 miles

Total distance travelled from A to B and then halfway from B to C is 3.6+5 = 8.6 miles

Answer:

$652.6-2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=563.997$

$652.6+2.01\frac{311.7}{\sqrt{50}}=741.203$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (563.997;741.203)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=652.6$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=311.7 represent the sample standard deviation

n=50 represent the sample size

Soltuion to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=50-1=49$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,49)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.01$
