Answer:
75 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the scale on the map, which is that 1 inch is 25 miles in real life. We can write that as a ratio of 1 inch: 25 miles. Now say we have two inches, then we have 50 miles because we add on another 25 miles, then we do that again and we get to 75 miles.
Another way to think about it (more complicated):
you can represent ratios as a fraction
so we do 1/25=3/x
To find x, we can do (25*3)/1 which equals 75, if you don't know what I did there then you don't know, sorry!
you can also do it in a different way
same scenario though
you represent it as a fraction
and do 1/25=3/x. We see that the ratio from 1 to 3 is multiplied by 3 so that means the ratio from 25 to x is also going to be multiplied by 3, and 25 multiplied by 3 is 75.

Answer:
$5.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Take $150.00 times 3.5% to get $5.25
150(.035) = 5.25
Answer:
The appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution,
X 
Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of American births resulting in a defect.
The proportion of American births that result in a birth defect is approximately <em>p</em> = 1/33.
A random sample of <em>n</em> = 5 American births are selected.
It is assumed that the births are independent, i.e. a birth can be defective or not is independent of the other births.
In this experiment the success is defined as a defective birth.
The random variable <em>X</em> satisfies all criteria of a Binomial distribution.
The criteria are:
- Number of observations is constant
- Independent trials
- Each trial has only two outcomes: Success and Failure
- Same probability of success for each trial
Thus, the appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution, Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
The formula can be written in the form ...
... T = (original temperature) + x·(change in temperature each minute)
The problem statement gives you the original temperature (21 °C) and tells you the temperature after 12 minutes. You have to use that information to figure out the change in temperature each minute.
The change in temperature in 12 minutes is (75 °C) - (21 °C) = 54 °C. That is the change in 12 minutes, so the change in 1 minute will be 1/12 of that:
... 54/12 = 4.5
Using this value in the equation for T, we have
... T = 21 + 4.5x
