At home, Alice noticed that she had a flat tire. With the spare, Alice drove 30 miles to the next shop at 45 mph. After getting the new tire, she drove home at 70 mph. What was Alice's average speed for her round trip?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Approximately 54.7826 mph

As a fraction, this average speed is exactly 1260/23 mph.

========================================================

Work Shown:

"Alice drove 30 miles...at 45 mph". This means

t = d/r

t = 30/45

t = 2/3

She drove for 2/3 of an hour, which is (2/3)*60 = 40 minutes.

Then "she drove home at 70 mph". She drove the same distance, meaning,

t = d/r

t = 30/70

t = 3/7

She drove for 3/7 of an hour, which is roughly (3/7)*60 = 25.714 minutes.

------------------------------

Add up the time values

(2/3 hr) + (3/7 hr)

(2/3 + 3/7) hr

(14/21 + 9/21) hr

23/21 hr

She spent 23/21 of an hour driving going to the auto shop and then back home. The total distance she traveled was 30+30 = 60 miles.

Use these values to find the speed

r = d/t

r = d divided by t

r = 60 divided by (23/21)

r = (60/1) divided by (23/21)

r = (60/1) * (21/23)

r = (60*21)/(1*23)

r = 1260/23

r = 54.7826

Her average speed for the round trip is about 54.7826 mph.

14. The area of a rectangle is 375 square inches and it’s perimeter is 80 inches. Find both the length and width.

Answers

Answer:

Length  [tex]=25[/tex] inches

Width [tex]= 15[/tex] inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]l[/tex] = length of rectangle, [tex]w[/tex] = width of rectangle

Given the area and the perimeter of the rectangle, we can write:

[tex]lw = 375[/tex]

[tex]2l+2w=80[/tex]

So:

[tex]l+w = 80\div2[/tex]

[tex]=40[/tex]

[tex]l=40-w[/tex]

Now, we can use substitution to find the value of [tex]w[/tex]:

[tex]lw = 375[/tex]

[tex](40-w)w = 375[/tex]

[tex]40w-w^2 = 375[/tex]

[tex]375+w^2-40w = 0[/tex] (Quadratic equation)

[tex](w-15)(w-25) = 0[/tex]

∴ [tex]w = 15, 25[/tex]

We can use substitution again to find the value of [tex]l[/tex]

[tex]lw = 375[/tex]

[tex]l=375\div w[/tex]

[tex]=25,15[/tex]

∵ Length usually refers to the longer side of a rectangle, ∴ length [tex]=25[/tex] inches and width [tex]=15[/tex] inches.

A physicist examines 23 sedimentary samples for mercury concentration. The mean mercury concentration for the sample data is 0.036 cc/cubic meter with a standard deviation of 0.012. Determine the 80% confidence interval for the population mean mercury concentration. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2: Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval is  [tex]0.0328 <  \mu <  0.0392[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n = 23

  The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 0.036 \ cc/m^3[/tex]

   The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.012[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  80% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 80 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.20[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.282[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = 1.282  *  \frac{0.012 }{\sqrt{23} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 0.00321 [/tex]

Generally 80% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]0.036  -0.00321 <  \mu <  0.036  + 0.00321[/tex]

=>  [tex]0.0328 <  \mu <  0.0392[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that when you add two numbers together the result is 3.

The greater of the number is given as a.

Let "x" represent that lesser number.

Thus:

[tex] a + x = 3 [/tex]

To make x the subject of the formula. Subtract a from both x.

[tex] a + x - a = 3 - a [/tex]

[tex] x = 3 - a [/tex]

Therefore, the expression that represents the lesser number, x, is:

Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y - 3x = 1

2y - x = 12

Step 2: Rewrite Systems

y - 3x = 1

Add 3x on both sides:                    y = 3x + 1

Step 3: Redefine Systems

y = 3x + 1

2y - x = 12

Step 4: Solve for x

Substitution

Substitute in y:                    2(3x + 1) - x = 12Distribute 2:                         6x + 2 - x = 12Combine like terms:           5x + 2 = 12Isolate x term:                     5x = 10Isolate x:                              x = 2

Step 5: Solve for y

Define equation:                    2y - x = 12Substitute in x:                       2y - 2 = 12Isolate y term:                        2y = 10Isolate y:                                 y = 5

Felipe sold t-shirts and hats at a festival. He made a $5 profit for each t-shirt he sold. He also made a profit of $40 from selling hats. If he made a total profit
$125, how many t-shirts did he sell?

Answers

Answer:

He sold 17 shirts at the festival.

The total number of t-shirts Felipe sold is 17 t-shirts.

Consider that the number of t-shirts Felipe sold be "x".

Since He made a profit of $5 for each t-shirt sold. Therefore, his profit from selling t-shirts is 5x. also made a profit of $40 from selling hats.

His total profit is given as $125.

So we can write the following equation:

5x + 40 = 125

Subtracting 40 from both sides;

5x = 85

Dividing both sides by 5, we get:

x = 17

Therefore, Felipe sold 17 t-shirts.

Suppose the national average dollar amount for an automobile insurance claim is $758.83. You work for an agency in Michigan and you are interested in whether or not the state average is less than the national average. The hypotheses for this scenario are as follows. Null Hypothesis: μ ≥ 758.83, Alternative Hypothesis: μ < 758.83. You take a random sample of claims and calculate a p-value of 0.0349 based on the data, what is the appropriate conclusion? Conclude at the 5% level of significance.
A. The true average claim amount is significantly higher than $758.83.
B. The true average claim amount is higher than or equal to $758.83.
C. We did not find enough evidence to say the true average claim amount is less than $758.83.
D. The true average claim amount is significantly different from $758.83.
E. The true average claim amount is significantly less than $758.83.

Answer:

The  correct option is  E  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = \$ 758.83[/tex]

     The  null hypothesis  is [tex]H_o : \mu \ge 758.83[/tex]

      The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu < 758.83[/tex]

      The  p-value is  [tex]p-value = 0.0349[/tex]

      The  level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the value given we see that  the p-value  < [tex]\alpha[/tex] hence  

  The decision rule is  

Reject the null hypothesis  

 The  conclusion is  

    The true average claim amount is significantly less than $758.83.
