Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Train X takes out 1/4 of our journey.

Now, we have 3/4 of the journey left.

Train Y takes 3/4 of the last 3/4 of the journey. How much is that, let's just multiply the fractions!

3/4*3/4= 9/16

So, 9/16 of the total journey is done by Train Y.

A fourth of 16/16 is 4/16, so that leaves us with 3/16 left to go.

So, 3/16 of our total distance is equal to 10 km. Let's call our total distance d and set this up as an equation.

3/16d=10

Divide both sides by 3/16.

d= 53 1/3

We also remember that Train Y gave us 9/16 of our total journey, so we can multiply this by our total distance to see how far train Y went.

53 1/3 * 9/16= 30

So, A. Ahmad traveled 30 miles by Train Y and B. his total distance traveled is 53 1/3 miles.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D

An online polling site posed this question: "How much stock do you put in long-range weather forecasts?" Among its Web site user
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

(a) 1155.84

(b) 48.2%

(c) D

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of total responses is, <em>N</em> = 38,528.

(a)

It is provided that 3% answered with "a lot".

Compute the actual number of responses consisting of "a lot" as follows:

n (a lot) = N × P (a lot)

            = 38528 × 0.03

            = 1155.84

Thus, the actual number of responses consisting of "a lot" is 1155.84.

(b)

The number of responses consisting of "very little or none" is,

n (very little or none) = 18,566

Compute the percentage of responses consisted of "very little or none" as follows:

P(\text{very little or none})=\frac{n(\text{very little or none})}{N}

                                  =\frac{18566}{38528}\\\\=0.481883\\\\\approx 0.482

The percentage is: 0.482 × 100% = 48.2%.

Thus, the percentage of responses consisted of "very little or none" is 48.2%.

(c)

As the sample size increases the sample statistic value gets closer and closer to the actual population parameter value.

Thus, making the sample statistic an unbiased estimator of the population parameter.

And proving that the sample is a true representative of the population.

Thus, the correct option is (D).

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the average speed of a biker if she biked 4 1/4 of a mile in 25 minutes?

-----------------

rate = distance/time

-----

rate = (17/4)/(25/60) = (17/4)(60/25) = (17*3/5) = 51/5 = 10.2 mph
