You walk 2 miles in 1/2 hour ate that rate , how long will it take to walk 3 miles

irina [24]

If you walk 2 miles in 1/2 an hour, each mile took 15 minutes to walk. Add one more mile and that equals 45 minutes.

It will take 45 minutes to walk 3 miles.

Use substitution to solve each system of equations <br> X=y-2<br> 4x+y=2

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y - 2.........(1)

4x + y = 2......(2)

Substituting x in (1) in (2)

4(y - 2) + y = 2

4y - 8 + y = 2

5y = 2 + 8

5y = 10

y = 10/5

y = 2

Putting x in (1)

x = y - 2

x = 2 - 2

x = 0

Bob Nale is the owner of Nale’s Quick Fill. Bob would like to estimate the mean number of gallons of gasoline sold to his custom

ira [324]

Answer:

a) The best estimator for the population mean is given by the sample mean $\hat \mu = \bar X = 5.70$

b) The 99% confidence interval would be given by (4.969;6.431)

c) We are 99% confident that the true mean for th number of gallons of gasoline sold to his customers is between 4.969 and 6.431.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 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".

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

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=1.9$ represent the population standard deviation

n=45 represent the sample size

2) Part a

The best estimator for the population mean is given by the sample mean $\hat \mu = \bar X = 5.70$

3) Part b. Develop a 99 percent confidence interval for the population mean.

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

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

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.005,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$5.7-2.58\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{45}}=4.969$

$5.7+2.58\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{45}}=6.431$

So on this case the 99% confidence interval would be given by (4.969;6.431)

4) Part c. Interpret the meaning of part (b).

On this case we can say this: We are 99% confident that the true mean for th number of gallons of gasoline sold to his customers is between 4.969 and 6.431.

Two experiments are defined below. An event is defined for each of the experiments. Experiment I: Corrine rolls a standard six-s

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: The correct answer is option C: Both events are equally likely to occur

Step-by-step explanation: For the first experiment, Corrine has a six-sided die, which means there is a total of six possible outcomes altogether. In her experiment, Corrine rolls a number greater than three. The number of events that satisfies this condition in her experiment are the numbers four, five and six (that is, 3 events). Hence the probability can be calculated as follows;

P(>3) = Number of required outcomes/Number of possible outcomes

P(>3) = 3/6

P(>3) = 1/2 or 0.5

Therefore the probability of rolling a number greater than three is 0.5 or 50%.

For the second experiment, Pablo notes heads on the first flip of a coin and then tails on the second flip. for a coin there are two outcomes in total, so the probability of the coin landing on a head is equal to the probability of the coin landing on a tail. Hence the probability can be calculated as follows;

P(Head) = Number of required outcomes/Number of all possible outcomes

P(Head) = 1/2

P(Head) = 0.5

Therefore the probability of landing on a head is 0.5 or 50%. (Note that the probability of landing on a tail is equally 0.5 or 50%)

From these results we can conclude that in both experiments , both events are equally likely to occur.

1, 4, 13, 40, 121 what is the next number in the pattern

mart [117]

Add powers of 3.
1 + 3 = 4
4 + 9 = 13 = 4 + 3^2
13 + 27 = 40 = 13 + 3^3
40 + 81 = 121 = 40 + 3^4
Now you need to add 3^5 to 121.

121 + 3^5 = 121 + 243 = 364
