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

Which of the following is a key property of the quadratic parent function?
Mars2501 [29]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic parent function is y=x^2  which means the vertex is the origin because if you input 0 into the function you will get an output of zero. (0,0) is the origin which is where the graph intersect.

t​ Technodynamics, Inc., a​ randomly-selected hiring committee of 3 people is formed from a group of 4 employees in marketing an
atroni [7]

Answer: a) 0.25, b) 0.78, c) 0.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of employees in marketing = 4

Number of employees in management = 7

We need to hire committee of 3 people.

​a) Find the probability that the committee has exactly 2 employees from marketing.

So, Probability becomes

\dfrac{^4C_2\times ^7C_1}{^{11}C_3}\\\\=\dfrac{42}{165}\\\\=0.25

​b) Find the probability that the committee has at least one employee from marketing.

P(x\geq 1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\P(x\geq 1)=1-\dfrac{^7C_3}{^{11}C_3}=1-0.212=0.78

c) Find the probability that the committee has at most one employee from management.

P(x\leq 1)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)\\\\P(x\leq 1)=\dfrac{^7C_3}{^{11}C_3}+\dfrac{^7C_2\times ^4C_1}{^{11}C_3}\\\\P(x\leq 1)=0.21+0.50=0.71

Hence, a) 0.25, b) 0.78, c) 0.71

△HKS∼△DLY<br><br><br><br> What is DY<br><br> ?<br><br> Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.
Triss [41]
The answer is 41 inches. Since <span>△HKS∼△DLY, so the measurements of the angles are just the same. So if the sides are   15 x 20 x 32. Then to get the sides of the other triangle is simply adding what is the measurement of the sides from the first triangle. so it is 24 x 29 x 41. So the answer of DY is equal to 41 inches.</span>

kaheart [24]
In your problem:
p = 18.3% = 0.183
n = 130

The standard error can be calculated by the formula:
SE = √[p · (1 - p) / n]
     = √[0.183 · (1 - 0.183) / 130]
     = 0.0339

The standard error of the proportion is 0.034.
