Answer:
<em>Pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Rates of change</u>
The rate of change (ROC) is a measure that compares two quantities, usually to know how fast one variable changes in time.
We are given two rates of change for two pools that are leaking. The first one loses 2/3 gallon in 15 minutes, and the other loses 3/4 gallon in 20 minutes.
To compare them, we are required to express time in hours. Recall one hour has 60 minutes, or equivalently, one minute has 1/60 hours. Converting both times, we have:
15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hours
20 minutes = 20/60 = 1/3 hours
Now compute both rates of change:
Pool 1:
Pool 2:
Comparing both ratios, it's clear pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that X the time to complete a standardized exam in the BYU-Idaho Testing Center is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.
We have 68 rule as 2/3 of total would lie within 1 std deviation, and 95 rule as nearly 95% lie within 2 std deviations from the mean.
We have std deviation = 10
Hence 2 std deviations from the mean
= Mean ±2 std deviations
=±20
=
Below 50, 0.25 or 2.5% would complete the exam.
