Answer:

1. Statistics

2. Sample

3. Population

4. Variable

5. Data

6. Parameter

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Statistics is the mean of the sample taken - The average speed that the 250 randomly selected drivers drove on Highway 50

2. Sample is the representative part of the population - The 250 randomly selected drivers who were on Highway 50

3. Population is the group of people from which the sample was taken - All people who drive on Highway 50

4. Variable is a quantity that has values which differ - The speed that a driver drives on Highway

5. Data is information obtained used for a specific purpose - The list of the 250 speeds that the drivers studied drove

6. Parameter is the mean of a population - The average speed that all drivers go on Highway 50

The m6 = (11x + 8)° and m7 = (12x – 4)° What is the measure of 4? m4 = 40° m4 = 48° m4 = 132° m4 = 140°
bezimeni [28]
M< 6 = m< 7 (vertical angles)
11x + 8 = <span>12x – 4
12x - 11x = 8 + 4
 x = 12
so
m< 6 = </span>11x + 8 
m< 6 = 11(12) + 8
m< 6 = 132 + 8
m< 6 = 140

m<4 = 180 - m<6
m<4 = 180 - 140
m<4 = 40

answer

<span>m<4 = 40</span>

What are the solutions of the equation (x – 3)2 + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0? Use u substitution to solve.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

x = -1 and x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>What are the solutions of the equation (x – 3)² + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0? Use u substitution to solve.</em>

<em />

(x – 3)² + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0   -------------------------------------------------------(1)

To solve this problem, we will follow the steps below;

let u = x-3

we will replace x-3 by u in the given equation:

(x – 3)² + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0  

u² + 2u -8 = 0  ----------------------------------------------------------- --------------(2)

We will now solve the above quadratic equation

find two numbers such that its product gives -8 and its sum gives 2

The two numbers are 4 and -2

That is; 4×-2 = -8    and 4+(-2) = 2

we will replace 2u by (4u -2u)  in equation (2)

u² + 2u -8 = 0

u² + 4u - 2u -8 = 0

u(u+4) -2(u+4) = 0

(u+4)(u-2) = 0

Either  u + 4 = 0

            u = -4

or

u-2 = 0

u = 2

Either u = -4    or u = 2

But  u = x-3

x = u +3

when u = -4

x = u + 3

x = -4 + 3

x=-1

when u = 2

x = u + 3

x = 2 + 3

x=5

Therefore, x = -1  and  x =5

Doris ran 2.5 kilometers, then sprinted 300 meters and finally walked 1 4 of the distance she sprinted. How many meters did she
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

She traveled a total of 2875 metres during practice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Doris ran 2.5 kilometres, then sprinted 300 meters and finally walked 1/4 of the distance she sprinted.

To find the total distance that she traveled, we simply add the distance that she ran, sprinted and walked.

We will convert all distances to metres.

She ran 2.5 kilometres:

1 km = 1000 m

2.5 km = 2.5 * 1000 = 2500 m

So, she ran 2500 m.

She sprinted 300 m.

Se walked 1/4 the distance that she sprinted:

1/4 * 300 = 75 m

She walked 75 m.

Therefore, the total distance she traveled is:

2500 + 300 + 75 = 2875 m

She traveled a total of 2875 metres during practice.

David wants to rent a bicycle for a couple of hours to explore the city. The price of the bike rental, (P)(P)left parenthesis, P
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The hourly charge is $4 per hour for the first 3 hours.

The rate then drops to $2 per hour until the end of the 6th hour.  

The hourly rate drops further to $1 per hour between the 6th and 10th  hours.

The maximum price of the bike rental is $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the graph corresponds to the hourly rate for the bike rental.

During the first three hours of the bike rental, the price increases by $4 each hour.

Between the 3rd  and 6 th hours, the slope of the graph is 2, which means the hourly rate of the bike rental is $2 per hour.

Between the 6th and 10th hours, the rate is $1 per hour.

After the 10th  hour, the price, P, stops increasing. The maximum price of the bike rental is $30.

ella [17]

Answer:

9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

If you need 3/4 cups of milk to make 8 waffles, you would need 9/4 cups to make 24 waffles because you are making 3 times the amount of waffles, so you need 3 times the amount of milk.
