Answer:

For every 100-kilogram increase in mass, the fuel efficiency of car decreases by about 1.1 miles per gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuel efficiency after x kg in mass:

y = 43.28 -0.011x

Thus, the slope is of -0.011 per x kg.

Increase of 100:

When x = 100, as the slope is negative, the efficiency will decay by:

-0.011*100 = -1.1

Decay of 1.1 miles per gallon, so the answer is:

For every 100-kilogram increase in mass, the fuel efficiency of car decreases by about 1.1 miles per gallon.

Write the names of 5 object which are longer than your hand- span in your surrounding

Semenov [28]

5 object which are longer than your hand- span in my surrounding is Note book, Laptop, Window, Curtain, Table.

Hand span is a measure of distance from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger with the hand fully extended.

Hand span is a measure that has been used for many years. By placing the hand on the edge of a piece of paper and marking the tips of the thumb and little finger, the student can measure a straight line. This is a better method than placing the hand directly on the ruler.

Hand span and cubit are not used as standard units of length because their sizes vary from person to person. So, two different persons may give different measurements for the same length, which is not desirable for a standard unit.

Measure using yours hands and write as per your hand-span measurement.

Therefore,

5 object which are longer than your hand- span in my surrounding is Note book, Laptop, Window, Curtain, Table.

Every evening, two weather stations issue weather forecast for the next day. The weather forecasts are independent. On average,

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The probability is 0.6923

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call R the event that the next day rains, S the event that the next day has sunny weather, R2 the event that the station 2 predicts rain and S1 the event that station 1 predict sunny weather.

The probability that the next day has sunny weather given that station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day and station 2 predicts rain is calculated as:

P(S/S1∩R2) = P(S∩S1∩R2)/P(S1∩R2)

Where P(S1∩R2) = P(R∩S1∩R2) + P(S∩S1∩R2)

So, the probability P(R∩S1∩R2) that the next day rains, Station 1 predicts sunny weather and Station 2 predicts Rain is calculate as:

P(R∩S1∩R2) = 0.5 * 0.1 * 0.8 = 0.04

Because 0.5 is the probability that the next day rains, 0.1 is the probability that station 1 predicts sunny weather given that it is going to rain and 0.8 is the probability that station 2 predicts rain given that it is going to rain.

At the same way, the probability P(S∩S1∩R2) that the next day has sunny weather, Station 1 predicts sunny weather and Station 2 predicts Rain is calculate as:

P(S∩S1∩R2) = 0.5 * 0.9 * 0.2 = 0.09

Then, the probability P(S1∩R2) that station 1 predicts sunny weather for the next day, whereas station 2 predicts rain is:

P(S1∩R2) = 0.04 + 0.09 = 0.13

Finally, P(S/S1∩R2) is:

P(S/S1∩R2) = 0.09/0.13 = 0.6923
