Answer:
Rider 1 does one round in 15 min, and will complete another in each consecutive multiple of 15 min
Rider 2 does one round in 18 min, and will complete another in each consecutive multiple of 18 min
Assuming that they start together, they will complete another round together in a time that is both multiples of 15min and 18 min.
Then we need to find the smallest common multiple between 15 and 18.
To smallest common multiple between two numbers, a and b, is equal to:
a*b/(greatest common factor between a and b).
Now, the greatest common factor between 15 and 18 can be found if we write those numbers as a product of prime numbers, such as:
15 = 3*5
18 = 2*3*3
The greatest common factor is 3.
Then the smallest common multiple will be:
(15*18)/3 = 90
This means that after 90 mins, they will meet again at the starting place.
The greatest measurement error s 1/10 of an inch, which is 10% of an inch.
Therefore the greatest measurement error is 1/10 or 10%.
Answer: 0.1 or 10% per inch.
Answer:
The customer can conclude that the company's claim is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The percentage of lids that has a free yogurt coupon = 20%
The number of cups a loyal customer purchases = 85 yogurt cups
The number of cups that contained a coupon = 12 (14.1%)
The confidence interval performed = 99% confidence interval for the proportion of yogurt cups containing coupon codes
The interval obtained = (0.044, 0.238)
Therefore, the range of proportion within which the true proportion exists is 0.044 <
< 0.238
The range of percentage within which the true percentage exist is therefore;
0.044 × 100 = 4.4% <
× 100 < 0.238 × 100 = 23.8%
Given that the possible true percentage of lids that has a coupon is between 4.4% and 23.8% at 99% confidence level, the customer can conclude that only 12 of his yogurt cup contained coupon by chance and that the company's claim is correct.
