Answer:

  • 20 km
  • 20 km/h
  • 5 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the graph is a plot of Sean's distance from home as he drives to work, works 8 hours, then drives home with a 2-hour stop along the way. It also appears that t is measured in hours after midnight.

The graph shows Sean's distance from home between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. (t=17) is 20 km. Based on our assumptions, ...

  Sean's workplace is located 20 km from his home.

__

Speed is the change in distance divided by the change in time. Between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Sean's position changes by 20 km. His speed is then ...

  (20 km)/(1 h) = 20 km/h

  Sean's speed driving to work was 20 km/h.

__

Between 5 p.m. (t=17) and 7 p.m. (t=19), Sean's position changes from 20 km to 10 km from home. That change took 2 hours, so his speed was ...

  (10 km)/(2 h) = 5 km/h

  Sean's speed between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. was 5 km/h.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The units of speed (kilometers per hour) tell you it is computed by dividing kilometers by hours. ("Per" in this context means "divided by".)

While the slope of the line on the graph between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. is negative, the speed is positive. The negative sign means Sean's speed is not away from home, but is toward home. When the direction (toward, away) is included, the result is a vector called "velocity." Speed is just the magnitude of the velocity vector. It ignores direction.

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is (0.1897, 0.2285).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence interval 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

Z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}

For this problem, we have that:

From a July 2019 survey of 1186 randomly selected Americans ages 18-29, it was discovered that 248 of them vaped (used an e-cigarette) in the past week. This means that n = 1186, \pi = \frac{248}{1186} = 0.2091

Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion of Americans age 18-29 who vaped in the past week.

So \alpha = 0.10 , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.10}{2} = 0.95, so z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2091 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.2091*0.7909}{1186}} = 0.1897

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2091 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.2091*0.7909}= 0.2285

The 90% confidence interval is (0.1897, 0.2285).

Will Give Brainlyest Please Help!!
Rainbow [258]
Well, since these are rectangles, and both have 2 measurements, it would be quite simple, you must find how 9 and 15 are similar, then see if that same similarity is found within the 3 and the 5.
the answer is yes, they are similar because...
9×1 1/3=15
and
3× 1/3=5
therefore they are similar.
hope this helped, plz follow me
