Answer:

complete question:

A ship traveled for a total of 85 miles over the course of 5 hours. Heading west, the ship traveled at an average speed of 14 miles per hour, and heading north, it traveled at an average speed of 19 miles per hour. For how many hours was the ship heading north?

The ship heading north will travel 3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let w = time heading west at 14 mph

the total time is 5 hrs, therefore

(5-w) = time heading north at 19 mph

A distance equation; dist = speed * time

14w + 19(5-w) = 85

14w + 95- 19w = 85

14w - 19w = 85 - 95

-5w =-10

w = 10/5

w = 2 hrs traveling west

therefore

(2)14= 28 mile going west

:And hours the ship heading towards north:5-2=3 hours

Therefore ,The ship heading north will travel 3 hours

complete question:

A ship traveled for a total of 85 miles over the course of 5 hours. Heading west, the ship traveled at an average speed of 14 miles per hour, and heading north, it traveled at an average speed of 19 miles per hour. For how many hours was the ship heading north?

Answer:

The ship heading north traveled for 3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

A ship travels for a total of 85 miles over the course of 5 hours journey. The speed of the journey can be calculated below.

speed = distance/time

total distance = 85

total time = 5 hours

speed = 85/5

speed = 17  miles/hr

West direction

Heading west the ship traveled at an average speed of 14 miles per hour. The speed can be represented for this journey as follows.

speed = distance/time

14 = dist/time

let

a = time traveled west

distance = 14a

North direction

speed = dist/time

19 = dist/time

time travel north = 5 - a

distance = 19(5 - a)

distance = 95 - 19a

Total distance traveled = 85 miles

85 = 14a + 95 - 19a

85 = -5a + 95

-10 = -5a

a = -10/-5

a = 2

The ship heading north will travel for 5 - 2 = 3 hours

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all coffee drinkers who would say they are addicted to coffee is between 21% and 31%.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

A confidence interval has two bounds, the lower and the upper

Lower bound:

\pi - M

Upper bound:

\pi + M

In this problem, we have that:

\pi = 0.26, M = 0.05

Lower bound:

\pi - M = 0.26 - 0.05 = 0.21

Upper bound:

\pi + M = 0.26 + 0.05 = 0.31

The 95% confidence interval for the percent of all coffee drinkers who would say they are addicted to coffee is between 21% and 31%.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

(B)r=\dfrac{85}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a circle centre J

Let the radius of the circle =r

LK is tangent to circle J at point K

From the diagram attached

  • LX=6
  • Radius, XJ=JK=r
  • LK=11

Theorem: The angle between a tangent and a radius is 90 degrees.

By the theorem above, Triangle JLK forms a right triangle with LJ as the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras Theorem:

(6+r)^2=r^2+11^2\\(6+r)(6+r)=r^2+121\\36+6r+6r+r^2=r^2+121\\12r=121-36\\12r=85\\r=\dfrac{85}{12}

The length of the radius, r=\dfrac{85}{12}

Sophie [7]

Answer: 12.07 ounce/gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

desired ratio = 90grams / liter of water.

ratio In ounce/ gallon

first we convert our grams to ounce

= 98grams / 28.35

= 3.175 ounce.

converting liter to gallons

= 1/3.8

=0.263 gallons

therefore;

= 3.175 ounce / 0.263 gallons

= 12.07 ounce/gallon.

Suppose you know the minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, and maximum values for a set of data. Explain how to creat
Irina18 [472]
First, create a scale that includes all the numbers- that being, you can plot both the minimum and maximum values on it.

Next, draw a line of a set height (I tend to use 2 squares in my work) where the median is. Next, draw similar lines, at the same height, for the rest of the values- both quartiles and the maximum values. You can obviously do this in whatever order you like, but that's how I do it.

Next, join up the tops and bottoms of the quartiles, with the median in the middle, and connect the middles of the quartiles to their corresponding minimum or maximum values.

Voila, my friend. You have a box plot.
