Percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100
A positive percent change is a percent increase.
A negative percent change is a percent decrease.
In this problem, we have:
The new number is 15 laps.
The old number is 12 laps.
percent change = (15 - 12)/(12) * 100
percent change = 3/12 * 100
percent change = 25
Since the percent change is positive, +25, it is a percent increase.
Answer: The percent increase is 25%
The expected value of the amount of average snowfall for over 30 years is 86.7 inches with a standard deviation of 40.4 inches. To verify if this particular trend continues, we must check the significance value of the amount snowfall for the past four years.
Given that the snowfall for past years are as follows: 115.7 inches, 62.9 inches, 168.5 inches, and 135.7 inches.
Thus the mean of the sample would be: (115.7 + 62.9 + 168.5 + 135.7)/4 = 120.7 inches.
To compute for the z-score, we have
z-score = (x – μ) / (σ / √n)
where x is the computed/measured value, μ is the expected mean, σ is the standard deviation, and n is the number of samples.
Using the information we have,
z-score (z) = (120.7 - 86.7) / (40.4/ √4) = 1.68
In order to reject the null hyptohesis our probability value must be less than the significance level of 5%. For our case, since z = 1.68, P-value = 0.093 > 0.05.
Therefore, the answer is B.
Answer:
a. y equals one third times x plus 10
= y = 1/3(x) + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Let the original final plan = x
Let the current flight plan = y
The initial time of departure = 4.00pm
Her flight was then delayed for 10 minutes
We are told in the question that:
The current flight plan allows her arrive at her destination three times faster.
This means y= (1/3)x
y = x/3
Hence the equation generated =
y = x/3 +10
y = 1/3(x) + 10
