n a rural area, only about 30% of the wells that are drilled find adequate water at a depth of 100 feet or less. A local man cla

ims to be able to find water by "dowsing"—using a forked stick to indicate where the well should be drilled. You check with 80 of his cus- tomers and find that 27 have wells less than 100 feet deep. What do you conclude about his claim?

Answer: the man's claim is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 30% of the well find water at a depth <=100 feet

P(X<=100) = 0.30

If the man's prediction work well the probability of finding well at less than 100 or equal should be high fwhen calculated from his results. So give 27 out of 80 wells

P(X<=100) = 27/80

P(X<=100) = 0.3375

Since 0.3375 > 0.3

The man's claim is true.

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

<GCB=180-5x

<EBA=9x

<DAC=8x

The sum of the three exterior angles equals 360.

(180-5x)+9x+8x=360

180-5x+9x+8x=360

-5x+9x+8x=360-180

12x=180

x=15

Calculate the rate of change from the graph below
qaws [65]

Answer:

The rate of change is 0.75 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of the linear relation is represented by the slope of the line which represents this relation

The rule of the slope of a line is

m = Δy/Δx, where

  • Δy is the vertical change
  • Δx is the horizontal change

From the given graph

∵ The line passes through points (0, 0) and (4, 3)

∴ Δx = 4 - 0 = 4

∴ Δy = 3 - 0 = 3

→ Use the rule of the slope above to find the slope of the line

∴ m = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75

∵ The x-axis represents the time in minutes

∵ The y-axis represents the amount in gallons

∵ m represents the rate of change

∴ The rate of change = 0.75 gallons per minute

Mia is tracking her savings account balance . She knows the equation to find her balance y in any year t, but she can't remember
motikmotik

Complete question is;

Mia is tracking her savings account balance. She knows the equation y = 8000p^(t) can be used to find her balance y in any year t, but she can't remember what p represents. Her balance 3⅔ years after opening her account, is $9,905.54. What is the value of p?

Answer:

p = 1.06

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the equation y = 8000p^(t) can be used to find her balance y in any year t.

Now, we are given t = 3⅔ = 11/3 years

Also, we are given balance after 11/3 years as;

y = $9,905.54

Thus;

Plugging the relevant values into y = 8000p^(t), we have;

9,905.54 = 8000p^(11/3)

p^(11/3) = 9905.54/8000

p = (9905.54/8000)^(3/11)

p = 1.06

Need help not sure what to do
Rama09 [41]

5a)

2x + 94 = 7x + 49 (vertical angles are equal)

2x - 7x = -94 + 49

-5x = -45

x = 9

Answer

9

5b)

4y + 7x + 49 = 180 (supplementary angles, sum = 180)

4y + 7(9) + 49 = 180

4y + 112 = 180

4y = 68

y = 17

Answer

17

6)

x = 6x - 290 (vertical angles are equal)

-5x = -290

  x = 58

Answer

58
