Answer:

5 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the distance if we apply the speed formula that would be the distance in a given time:

v = d / t

therefore, if we solve for distance it would be:

d = v * t

Now the speed is 6 km / h but the time must be calculated, it leaves at 9:15 and returns at 10:05, that is, there is no exact time but 50 minutes, one hour equals 60 minutes, therefore:

50 min * 1 h / 60 min = 0.833 h, that is, the child took 0.833 hours to get to school, now if we replace:

d = 6 * 0.8333

d = 5

In other words, the distance between the school and the house is 5 km.

A poll found that 64% of a random sample of 1076 adults said they believe in ghosts.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Margin of error at 90% is 0.024

Margin of error at 99% is 0.037

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 1076

A poll found that 64% of a random sample of 1076 adults said they believe in ghosts.

So, No. of adults said they believe ghosts = \frac{64}{100} \times 1076=688.64\sim 688

So, x = 688

n = 1076

\widehat{p} = \frac{x}{n}

\widehat{p} = \frac{688}{1076}

\widehat{p} = 0.639

ME=z \times \sqrt{\frac{\widehat{p}(1-\widehat{p})}{n}}

z at 90% confidence is 1.64

ME=1.64 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.639(1-0.639)}{1076}}

ME=0.024

So, margin of error at 90% is 0.024

Find the margin of error needed to be 99% confident.

z at 99% confidence is 2.58

ME=2.58 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.639(1-0.639)}{1076}}

ME=0.024

So, margin of error at 99% is 0.037

At the start of 2014, Mike's car is worth 12000. the car depreciates by 30 percent every year. how much is his car worth in 2017
Anarel [89]

Answer:

$4,116

Step-by-step explanation:

Worth of Mike's car at the start of 2014 = $12,000

If the car is said to depreciates every year by 30% = 30/100 = 0.3

The worth of the car at the start of 2017 is what we are to determine.

This means that the car depreciated by 30% (0.3) for 3 years since 2014 (2017 - 2014 = 3 yrs)

The worth at the start of 2017 would be calculated as follows:

12,000 × (1 - 0.3)³

= 12,000 × (0.7)³

= 12,000 × 0.343

= 4,116

Worth of the car at the start of 2017 would be $4,116

What are the dimensions of the rectangle shown below? Remember to use the axes on the coordinate grid to help you.
miskamm [114]
Keep in mind its been a while since i did this type of work lol.....

did you try to draw it out on a grid paper....what will be helpful is if you got the coordinates and put the points down and then if you connect the dots you get your shape now you will count the unis in which the width and length is timed. so like if you had grid and it gave you coordinates and you did all that now you will count how many units is in the width and how many in the length. 
 but your best answer might be 14 units x 4 units

The two solids are similar and the ratio between the lengths of their edges is 2:9. What is the ratio of their surface areas? A)
masya89 [10]
When tow solids of similar shape that is assuming to be a box in this case, having a length ratio of 2:9, we get the ratio of the surface areas equal to the<span>square of the ratio of their edges. This is becaue the surface area is equal to the area of the base (square) which is the square of the side. Answer is B.</span>
