Answer:

12:05 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let z be the number of hours, from 11:00 am, when Jimmy would catch up with John. The time that Jimmy will have to drive to catch up with John is z - 1/4 as he started a quarter of an hour late. When Jimmy would catch up with John, they would have traveled the same distance. Hence

50 z = 65 (z - 1/4)

Solve for t

50z = 65z - 65/4

z = 65/60 = 1.083 hours = 1 hour and 5 minutes

Jim will catch up with John at

11:00 am + 1 hour 5 minutes = 12:05 pm

Calculate a rough estimate of the total lineal footage of lumber needed for a rectangular house 35’ x 40’?
Maru [420]

Answer:

B. 1,500’

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

dimension of the rectangular house, = 35’ x 40’

The actual total linear footage of lumber needed = 35’ x 40’ = 1,400'

The rough estimate should be greater than the actual estimate in 100s;

rough estimate = 1,400' + 100' = 1,500'

Therefore, the rough estimate of the total linear footage of lumber needed is 1,500'.

Community property<br>a d simplify
Natalija [7]

Ah, the commutative property.

a + b = b + a

xy = yx


When using the commutative property - a good way to remember it is to think of a community, in which each community member helps one another to a mutual outcome.


Using the commutative property we can rearrange this equation into a more sensical format:

-8.9 + 6.7 - 1.1

6.7 - 1.1 - 8.9

6.7 - 1.1 = 5.6

5.6 - 8.9 = -3.3

A study to compare the mean level of LDL cholesterol in male and female students who do not exercise regularly gave the data sho
Doss [256]
Female:                                     Male:
60                                              35
96                                             109
26                                              31
n₁=no. of entries=3                    n₂=no. of entries=3
s₁=sample standard                   s₂=sample standard 
      deviation=35.005                       deviation=43.924
x₁=sample mean=60.666           x₂=sample mean=58.333

Here s and x are calculated from calculator.
Now,
for significance level
1-α=90%
1-α=0.9
α=0.1
α/2=0.05

As population variances are unknown for both Male and female so the best suitable formula is

    (x₁ - x₂) ± tα/2,v₁ * \sqrt{ \frac{s_1^2 }{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }
   ........1

where v(degree of fredom)=(s₁²/n₁+s₂²/n₂)² / ((s₁²/n₁)²/n₁-1)+(s₂²/n₂)²/n₂-1))
    by putting values 
           v=3.81026
From Statistics table,
      See the t table at α/2=0.05  and v=3.81026
use interpolation as v value is not in the table,
      3.81026-3/4-3 = x-3.182/2.776-3.182
                          x= 2.853
by putting values in eq. 1 we get
  
(60.666-58.333) ± (2.853)*\sqrt{ \frac{35.005^2 }{3} + \frac{43.924^2}{3} }      

  2.333 ± 92.516 is the correct answer.
