You've simplified it as much as possible.

Let x equal length of flight in hours.

At first, the inequality was:

x ≈ 5

But with the delay, the inequality is now

x ≥ 6.

There are blue, red and green pencils in the box—20 pencils total. There are 6 times more green pencils than blue pencils. There

lana [24]

Answer:

You have to take 15 pens to get at least one red pencil.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there were one red and 6 green pens, there would be more red than green pens.

If there were 3 or more blue and thus 18 or more green pens, the number of pens would be over 20.

So there must be 2 blue, 12 green and thus 6 red pencils. So you have to take at least 15 pens to be sure that you got a red one.

When testing gas pumps for accuracy, fuel-quality enforcement specialists tested pumps andfound that 1304 of them were not pumpi

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The p-value of the test statistic from the standard normal table is 0.0017 which is less than the level of significance therefore, the null hypothesis would be rejected and it can be concluded that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that less than 20% of the pumps are inaccurate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, 1304 gas pumps were not pumping accurately and 5689 pumps were accurate.

x = 1304, n = 1304 + 5689 = 6993

The level of significance = 0.01

The sample proportion of pump which is not pumping accurately can be calculated as,

The claim is that the industry representative less than 20% of the pumps are inaccurate.

The hypothesis can be constructed as:

H0: p = 0.20

H1: p < 0.20

The one-sample proportion Z test will be used.

The test statistic value can be obtained as:

$Z=\frac{\hat{p}-P}{\sqrt{\frac{P(1-P))}{n}}}\\\\Z=\frac{0.186-0.20}{6993}\\\\Z=-2.927$

The stream of water from a fountain follows a parabolic path. The stream reaches a maximum height of 12 feet, represented by a v

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

y=-3/16(x-8)^2+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the vertex form equation for a parabola:

y=a(x-h)^2+k where (h,k) is the vertex.

Therefore, we have y=a(x-8)^2+12 as our equation so far. If we plug in (16,0) we can find a:

0=a(16-8)^2+12

0=64a+12

-12=64a

-12/64=a

-3/16=a

Therefore, your final equation is y=-3/16(x-8)^2+12
