Answer:

4.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Negative 0.2 (x minus 4) = negative 1.7

-2(x - 4) = - 1.7

-2x + 8 = - 1.7

-2x = - 1.7 - 8

-2x = - 9.7

Divide both sides by - 2

-2x / 2 = - 9.7 / - 2

x = 4.85

The experimental probability of hearing thunder on any given day is Florida is 25%. Out of 730 days, about how many days can Flo
Orlov [11]

The Floridians can predict to hear the thunder on about 183 days out of the 730 days.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given that,

  • The total number of days = 730 days.
  • The probability of hearing thunder on any day in Florida = 25%

Let 'x' be the number of days out of 730 days that Floridians will hear thunder.

<u>To find the number of days that Floridians will hear thunder :</u>

Number of days will hear thunder = 25% of Total days

The 25% can be expressed in the form of 25/100.

Therefore, the x days that Floridians will hear thunder is given as,

⇒ x = (25/100) × 730

Further simplifying the above equation,

⇒ x = 2.5 × 73

⇒ x = 182.5

Since the number next to the decimal point is equal to 5, round it to the nearest integer.

Therefore, the value of x is approximately equal to 183 days.

Thus the Floridians can predict to hear the thunder on about 183 days out of the 730 days.

Which slope is steeper 4/8 or 3/10 and why
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

4/8 is steeper than 3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

4 is half of 8 and in decimal form is 0.5. 3/10 in decimal form is 0.3. Therefore 0.5 is greater than 0.3, so 4/8 is considered to be steeper than 3/10.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

-2.23 ; 0.012874

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Population mean (μ) = 25 minutes

Same mean (x) = 24min 12 seconds = 24.2 minutes

Standard deviation σ = 3

Sample size (n) = 70

Test statistic :

Using the relation :

Tstatistic = (x - m) / σ/sqrt(n)

Tstatistic = (24.2 - 25) / (3/sqrt(70)

Tstatistic = - 0.8 / 0.3585685

Tstatistic = - 2.2310939

= - 2.23

The P value can be obtained using a. P value Calculator :

P at α = 95% and test statistic = - 2.23

Hence, p = 0.012874 using calculator
