Which is the best estimate for the mass of a bicycle?

Mathematics

Anna35 [415]2 years ago

10 grams wouldn't make sense because a gram is about the weight of a paperclip and even 10 paper clips would not be anywhere close to the mass of the bicycle so we can eliminate this right away.

1,000 grams wouldn't make sense any either since a kilograms weighs about the size of a thick book and 1,000 grams is equal to 1 kilogram.

100 kilograms is way to heavy because 100 kilograms is around 100 large thick books stacked on top of each other.

This leaves us with 10 kilograms which

is the appropriate weight for a bicycle.

John is filling a bathtub that is 18 inches deep. He notices it takes 2 mins. To fill the tub 3 inches of water. He estimates it
Pavel [41]

Depth of the bathtub = 18 inches

Time taken to fill 3 inches of the bathtub = 2 minutes

Then

The amount of depth needed to fill with water = (18-3) inches

                                                                        = 15 inches

Time required to fill 15 inches of the bathtub = (15*2)/3 minutes

                                                                      = 30/3 minutes

                                                                      = 10 minutes

So John is correct in thinking that it will take 10 more minutes for the water to reach the top of the tub if he continues at the same rate.

Hope this helps!

Senior management of a consulting services firm is concerned about a growing decline in the firm’s weekly number of billable hou
Reil [10]

Answer:  (45.79, 51.21)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Significance level : \alpha: 1-0.99=0.01

Sample size : n= 51 , which is a large sample (n>30), so we use z-test.

Critical value: z_{\alpha/2}=2.576

Sample mean : \overline{x}= 48.5\text{ hours}

Standard deviation : \sigma=7.5\text{ hours}

The confidence interval for population means is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

i.e. 48.5\pm(2.576)\dfrac{7.5}{\sqrt{51}}

i.e.48.5\pm2.70534112234\\\\\approx48.5\pm2.71\\\\=(48.5-2.71, 48.5+2.71)=(45.79, 51.21)

Hence, 99% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the number of hours this firm’s employees spend on work-related activities in a typical week =  (45.79, 51.21)

Over time, the number of organisms in a population increases exponentially. The table below shows the approximate number of
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

We write the generic form equation:

 y = A (b) ^ t

 We must use two points in the table to find the constants A and b

 We have then:

 For: t = 1, y = 55

 55 = A (b)

 For: t = 2, y = 60

 60 = A (b) ^ 2

 We solve the system of equations:

 We divide both equations:

 (60 = A (b) ^ 2) / (55 = A (b))

 ((60) / (55)) = b

 b = 1.091

 We substitute in any of the equations:

 55 = A (b)

 55 = A (1,091)

 A = (55) / (1,091)

 A = 50.41 

 The equation that models the problem is:

 y = 50.41 * (1.09) ^ t

 For t = 29 we have:

 y = 613.5996987 (> 600)

 Answer:

 Assuming the trend continues the environment will not last until the population after 24 years.
