Answer:
7/12.
Step-by-step explanation:
=x/x+5.
x-5/x+5+4=⅛
x-5/x+9=⅛
x-5=⅛(x+9)
x-5=⅛x+1⅛
x-⅛x=1⅛+5
⅞x=49/8
7x=49
x=7
thus the initial fraction is x/x+5= <u>7</u><u>/</u><u>1</u><u>2</u>
A rational number is a fraction
41.2 miles because 3/5=.6 so 2.6 x 7 = 18.2 then for the jogging 3/4 = .75 so 5.75 x 4 = 23 so 23+18.2= 41.2
Answer:
19.2
Step-by-step explanation:
You get the mean of a set of numbers by adding them and dividing the sum by how many numbers there are. In this case, you don't know what the individual 8 numbers are, but you can find out what they add up to.
Mean = (sum) / 8
17 = (sum) / 8
17 x 8 = sum
136 = sum
Now take out the numbers 9, 11, 20, which reduces the sum by 40. There are 5 numbers left and they add up to 136 - 40 = 96.
The new mean is 96 / 5 = 19.2
The volume of a cuboid is = length × width × height.
Let the width of Olivia's lunch box be 'x'.
Hence the length of Olivia's lunch box shall be 'x + 2'
Also the height of the box is given as 3 inches.
The volume of the box is 240 in³
Substituting in the formula we get

Dividing by 3 on both sides

Exapnding we get

Subtracting 80 from both sides

Factoring

We get
x= -10 or x = 8
But x cannot be negative
So x = 8
Hence the width of the box is 8 inches.
Answer:
The upper limit of a 95% confidence interval for the population mean would equal 83.805.
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. Since the variance is 25, the sample's standard deviation is 5.
We have the sample standard deviation, not the population, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.
T interval:
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 15 - 1 = 14
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 14 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.95(
). So we have T = 1.761
The margin of error is:
M = T*s = 1.761*5 = 8.805.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 75 + 8.805 = 83.805.
The upper limit of a 95% confidence interval for the population mean would equal 83.805.
