The assassins? That was a incredibly confusing riddle, nice job!
Answer: 1.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
If two quantities are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one quantity would cause a corresponding increase in the other quantity. Also, a decrease in the value of one quantity would cause a corresponding decrease in the other quantity.
Given that the amount a spring will stretch,S varies directly with weight, F, if we introduce a constant of proportionality, k, the expression becomes
S = kF
When S = 2.22 and L = 37, then
2.22 = 37k
k = 2.22/37 = 0.06
Therefore, the equation that relates the length S that the spring stretches to the weight F is
S = 0.06F
Therefore, if F = 25 pounds, then
S = 0.06 × 25
S = 1.5 inches
Answer:
Estimate of the standard error of the mean = 0.38 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Sample mean, 
= 10.87 lb
Sample size, n = 131
Standard deviation, σ = 4.31 lb
We have ti find the estimate of the standard error of the mean.
Formula for standard error:
Putting values, we get,
0.38 lb is the standard error of the mean.
Answer:
w=5h-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original formula h=(1/5)w+(8/5)
Subtract -8/5 on both sides to isolate the w, so h-8/5=(1/5)w
Now you have to get rid of the 1/5, so multiply 5(h-8/5), the 5 in the 8/5 cross each other out. You are left with 5h-8
