The area under the speed curve tells you how much distance the vehicle covers.

The distance for first 30 s corresponds to the area of a rectangle with height k m/s and length 30 s, or

(k m/s) (30 s) = 30k m

The distance for the last 20 s corresponds to the area of triangle with height k m/s and length 20 s, or

1/2 (k m/s) (20 s) = 10k m

If the total distance traveled was 1.7 km = 1700 m, then

30k + 10k = 1700

40k = 1700

k = 42.5

A university is conducting a survey to study the number of hours students sleep at night during exam week. A sample of 20 studen

Ronch [10]

1. To calculate the mean, we first total the number of hours: The 20 students' total number of study hours is 118.5 hours.
2. We divide by the number of samples to find the mean: The sample mean is 5.93.
3. Next, we find the SD: Calculate the standard deviation.
4. Then we divide SD by the number of samples to get the standard error: the standard error of the mean of the sample is 0.45.
5. Since for a 95% CI, the corresponding z-score is 1.96 ~ 2, we use the formula for CI: mean +/- z*SE, which is: The range in which 95% of the sample mean occurs is 5.93 + 2 × 0.45 = 6.83 hours and 5.93 − 2 × 0.45 = 5.03 hours.
6. Finally: The range in which 95% of the sample mean occurs is (5.03, 6.83).

What is the slope form equation?

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

y= mx +c

Step-by-step explanation:

The point- slope form of an equation is

y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

You can find the value of m by using the gradient formula.

$gradient = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}$

Then substitute the value of m found into the equation. Next substitute a pair of coordinates the line passes through to find the value of c. Substitute the value of c and you will obtain the point-slope form equation of the line.

Here's an example.

Point-slope form of an equation passing through (1, 2) and (5, 6).

① Finding gradient, m.

$m = \frac{6 - 2}{5 - 1} \\ m = \frac{4}{4} \\ m = 1$

② Substitute value of m into equation.

y= 1x +c

y= x +c

③ Substitute a pair of coordinates.

when x=1, y=2,

2= 1 +c

c= 2 -1

c= 1

Thus the equation of the line is y= x +1.
