A train is traveling at a constant speed and goes 7.5 kilometers in 6 minutes. At that rate:

For distance in 1 minute, divide the distance for 6 minutes by 6 minutes:

7.5 km / 6 minutes = 1.25 km per minute.

For 100 minutes, multiply distance per minute by total minutes:

1.25 km per minute x 100 minutes = 125 km

Answer:

1.25 km in 1 minute

125 km in 100 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Find its speed in km/min by dividing the km by number of minutes:

7.5/6

= 1.25

So, the train goes 1.25 km in 1 minute.

Using this speed, find how far it goes in 100 minutes, by multiplying the speed by 100:

1.25(100)

= 125

So, in 100 minutes, the train goes 125 km.

In a college student poll, it is of interest to estimate the proportion p of students in favor of changing from a quarter-system
Contact [7]

Answer:

n=206

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".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})

Solution to the problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.005. And the critical value would be given by:

t_{\alpha/2}=-2.58, t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.58

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.09, we can use as prior estimate of p 0.5, since we don't have any other info provided, and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.09}{2.58})^2}=205.44  

And rounded up we have that n=206

Type the correct answer in each box. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar. A bag contains 5 blue marbles, 2 black marbles, a
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem One

Blue =   5

Black  =2

Red    = 3

First of all there are 10 marbles, 2 of which are black.

That means that 8 others are not black

You can draw any one of the 8.

P(not black) = 8/10 = 4/5

Problem Two

There are 10 marbles in all

3 of them are red.

P(Red) = 3/10

  1. To divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment.
  2. These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions.
  3. The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.

<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional geometric shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles only.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

<h3>What is a perpendicular bisector?</h3>

A perpendicular bisector can be defined as a type of line that bisects (divides) a line segment exactly into two (2) halves and forms an angle of 90 degrees at the point of intersection.

In this scenario, we can reasonably infer that to divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment. These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions. The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.

Show that the maximum rate of change, with respect to radius, of the volume of a deflating balloon is four times the sphere's in
dmitriy555 [2]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say R is the initial radius of the sphere, and r is the radius at time t.

The volume of the sphere at time t is:

V = 4/3 π r³

Taking derivative with respect to radius:

dV/dr = 4π r²

This is a maximum when r is a maximum, which is when r = R.

(dV/dr)max = 4π R²

This is 4 times the sphere's initial great circle area, but not the great circle circumference.  The problem statement contains an error.
