Answer:

g = 15 - m/28

Step-by-step explanation:

let g = gasoline

let m = miles

  • g = 15 - m/28

since you can drive 420 miles with 15 gallons of gas, you can drive 28 miles with one gallon (= 420/15 = 28)

e.g.

you drive 100 miles, then you will have:

g = 15 - 100/28 = 15 - 3.57 = 11.43 gallons of gas left

you drive 240 miles:

g = 15 - 240/28 = 6.43 gallons

The Reverend Henry Whitehead was skeptical of John Snow's conclusion about the Broad Street pump. After the Broad Street cholera
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The main reason it was important to study this group was:

1) If Whitehead had found that many people had drunk water from the Broad Street pump and not caught cholera, that would have been evidence against Snow's hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

But Dr. John Snow was able to convince many councillors who ensured that the pump handle was removed from the Broad Street pump.  Within a few days of this removal, the cholera epidemic ended.  This step proved that Dr. Snow was right from the beginning.  The pump handle was the means that the cholera epidemic was being spread from one person to another within Broad Street area, since many usually fetch water from the pump.

An increase in walking has been shown to contribute to a healthier life-style. A sedentary American takes an average of 5000 ste
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: µ = 5000

For the alternative hypothesis,

H1: µ > 5000

Since the population standard deviation is given, z score would be determined from the normal distribution table. The formula is

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 5000

x = 5430

σ = 600

n = 40

z = (5430 - 5000)/(600/√40) = 4.53

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is < 0.0001

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, at a 5% level of significance, it can be concluded that they walked more than the mean number of 5000 steps per day.
