Answer:

d=rt In this problem we are looking for the distance, but we will have to go about it indirectly. If she's traveling the same exact road going and returning, then the distance traveled both ways is exactly the same. Since d = rt, and d is the same, by the substitution property, if and , then , and . So we need to rt for the trip going, rt for the trip returning and set them equal to each other and solve for t. Going is a rate of 24, and the time is t (since we don't know t), and returning is a rate of 30, and the time is 13 1/3-t. (If the whole trip takes 13 1/3 hours, and t is the time going, then the time returning is the difference between the total time and the going time. That concept is one that baffles most algebra students!). So our r1t1 is 24t, and our r2t2 is 30(13 1/3 - t). Set them equal to each other and that will look like this: That fraction of 40/3 is 13 1/3 made into an improper fraction. Distributing that we will have and 54t = 400. That means that t = 7.407. We have time, and that's great, but we need distance! Go back to one of your equations for distance and sub in t and solve for d. d = 24t, and d = 24(7.407), so d = 177.768 miles.

___________ Qualitative Inferential Descriptive Quantitative statistics consists of organizing and summarizing information​ coll
Alika [10]

Answer:

<u>Descriptive</u> statistics consists of organizing and summarizing information​ collected, while <u>inferential</u> statistics use methods that generalize results obtained from a sample to the population and measure the reliability of the results.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, descriptive statistics summarize a given data set using measures of central tendency and measures of variability.  

Measures of central tendency include:

  • mean.
  • median.
  • mode.

Measures of variability include:

  • standard deviation.
  • variance.
  • the minimum and maximum variables.

By definition, inferential statistics are used to make generalizations about a population from data samples.

For example, you might ask a sample of 100 people if they like shopping. You could make a bar chart of yes or no answers (descriptive statistics) or you could use your research and then, reason which is the percentage of the population that likes shopping (inferential statistics).
