Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 8 slices.

if he and his friends eat 5 pieces, they ate 5 out of 8 pieces.

in maths, we write 5 out of 8 like 5/8

hope this helped, any questions - just ask

good luck,

A retangle has an area of 30 square meters and a perimeter of 34 meters what are the dimensions of the retangle

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: Length = 15 meters

Width = 2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

Area of a rectangle = l × w

where l = length

w = width

Therefore,

2l + 2w = 34 ...... i

l × w = 30 ........ ii

From equation i

2l + 2w = 34

Divide through by 2.

l + w = 17 ...... iii

Then, l = 17 - w ........ iv

Put equation iv into ii

l × w = 30

(17 - w) × w = 30

17w - w² = 30

w² - 17w + 30 = 0

w² - 15w - 2w + 30 = 0

w(w - 15) - 2(w - 15) = 0

(w - 2) = 0

w = 0 + 2 = 2

w - 15 = 0

w = 0 + 15 = 15

Length = 15 meters

Width = 2 meters

Daily high temperatures in St. Louis for the last week were as follows: 95, 92, 93, 92, 95, 90, 90 (yesterday). a) The

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

a) T = 91.7 degrees

b) T = 90 degrees

c) MAD = 1.9

d) MSE = 5.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Daily high temperatures in St. Louis for the last week were as follows:

95, 92, 93, 92, 95, 90, 90

Find:

a) Forecast the high temperature today, using a 3-day moving average.

b) Forecast the high temperature today, using a 2-day moving average.

c) Calculate the mean absolute deviation based on a 2-day moving average, covering all days in which you can have a forecast and an actual temperature.

d) The mean squared error for the 2-day moving average

Solution:

- The set of 3 day moving average is as follows:

4. (95 + 92 + 93) ÷ 3 = 93.33⁰C

5. (92 + 93 + 92) ÷ 3 = 92.33⁰C

6. (93 + 92 + 95) ÷ 3 = 93.33⁰C

7. (92 + 95 + 90) ÷ 3 = 92.33⁰C

8. (95 + 90 + 90) ÷ 3 = 91.667⁰C

- Now use these points on excel sheet to forecast the temperature for today. The line of best fit is given:

T = 91.7 degrees

- The set of 2 day moving average is as follows:

3. (95 + 92) ÷ 2 = 93.5⁰C

4. (95 + 93) ÷ 2 = 92.5⁰C

5. (93 + 92) ÷ 2 = 92.5⁰C

6. (92 + 95) ÷ 2 = 93.5⁰C

7. (95 + 90) ÷ 2 = 92.5⁰C

8. (90 + 90) ÷ 2 = 90⁰C

- Now use these points on excel sheet to forecast the temperature for today. The line of best fit is given:

T = 90 degrees

Error Error^2

3. 93.5⁰C 0.5 0.25

4. 92.5⁰C 0.5 0.25

5. 92.5⁰C 2.5 6.25

6. 93.5⁰C 3.5 12.25

7. 92.5⁰C 2.5 6.25

8. 90⁰C

- The mean absolute deviation as follows:

MAD = Sum of all errors / 5

MAD = (0.5+0.5+2.5+3.5+2.5) / 5

MAD = 1.9

- The mean squared error deviation as follows:

MSE = Sum of all error^2 / 5

MSE = (0.25+0.25+6.25+12.25+6.25) / 5

MSE = 5.05
