Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

jason ran the first 3 miles at 8mil/hr ie; so it took him 3/8 hrs to run 3 miles.

jason ran the final 2 miles at 6mil/hr ie; it took him 2/6 hrs to run 2 miles

the total time he took to run 5 miles will then be; \frac{3}8} +\frac{2}{6}  = \frac{17}{24}hrs

if we divide distance/time we get his speed/velocity;

ie, 5/(17/24) = 6.47mil/hr

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

a) 0.5588

b) 0.9984

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 24

Standard Deviation, σ = 6.4

We are given that the distribution of score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}        

a) P(score between 20 and 30)

P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = P(\displaystyle\frac{20 - 24}{6.4} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30-24}{6.4}) = P(-0.62 \leq z \leq 0.94)\\\\= P(z \leq 0.94) - P(z < -0.62)\\= 0.8264 - 0.2676 = 0.5588 = 55.88\%

P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = 55.88\%

b) Sampling distribution

Sample size, n = 22

The sample will follow a normal distribution with mean 24 and standard deviation,

s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{6.4}{\sqrt{22}} =1.36

c) P(mean score of sample is between 20 and 30)

P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = P(\displaystyle\frac{20 - 24}{1.36} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30-24}{1.36}) = P(-2.94 \leq z \leq 4.41)\\\\= P(z \leq 4.41) - P(z < -2.94)\\= 1 - 0.0016 = 0.9984 = 99.84\%

P(20 \leq x \leq 30) =99.84\%

-3c-11+14c=-14c-11 <br> help me lol
EastWind [94]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

-3c-11+14c=-14c-11

                  +14c

-3c-11+28c = -11

                  +11

-3c+28c = 0

25c=0

divide both sides by 25

c=0

Write the equation of the line that passed through the point (-1,-4) that is perpendicular to the line
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The line that meets these conditions is y = 1.5x - 2.5

If you want to use fractions, it would be y = 3x/2 - 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To get a line perpendicular to y = -(2/3)x + 1, We can start by finding its slope.  That's easy enough as a perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal of the given one.  As this has a slope of -2/3, our new slope has to be 3/2, or 1.5

All we need to do then is express that rate of change relative to the given point (-1, -4).  We can do this by expanding the classic equation:

Δy = sΔx

We can write that as such:

y - (-4) = 1.5(x - (-1))

y + 4 = 1.5(x + 1)

y + 4 = 1.5x + 1.5

y  = 1.5x + 1.5 - 4

y = 1.5x - 2.5

Or if you want to express those numbers as fractions, it would be y = 3x/2 - 5/2.

To make sure the answer's correct, we can simply plug -1 in as the x value, and see if we get y = -4:

y = 3(-1) / 2 - 5/2

y = -3 / 2 - 5 / 2

y = -8 / 2

y = -4

So we know that our answer is correct (assuming that the slope is correct, which it is - a perpendicular line always has the negative reciprocal of the other line's slope).
