Johana works in the crime lab at the New York City Police Department. A woman’s shoe was found at a crime scene. Johana measures

it and then uses the following function equation to predict the estimated height of the suspect: y =1.19x+56 where x represents a woman’s shoe size and y represents the estimated likely height of the woman in inches. a. Using a calculator, determine an ordered pair that is a solution to this function. b. Interpret your solution in the context of this problem, using one or more complete sentences. Use the information given in the problem when describing the values of your input and output. 58

Answer:

(7, 64.33)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a woman suspect whose shoe size was found at the crime scene, the equation which can be used to predict the estimated height is given as:

y=1.19x+56,$ where:\\x = woman's shoe size\\ y= the estimated likely height of the woman in inches.

(a)Let x=7

Then:  y =1.19(7)+56=64.33

An ordered pair that is a solution to the function is (7, 64.33)

(b) The estimated height of a woman who is of shoe size 7 is 64,33 inches.

Sally has completed 1/3 of her shift; Jerry has completed 5/6 of his shift; David has finished 1/2 of his shift; Mona has 7/8 of
Step2247 [10]
Sally = 1/3
Jerry = 5/6
David = 1/2
Mona = 1 - 7/8 = 1/8

So, the biggest fraction among them is 5/6.

Jerry has completed the most work time.

A study of long-distance phone calls made from General Electric Corporate Headquarters in Fairfield, Connecticut, revealed the l
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.2611

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information :

Normal distribution:

Mean (m) length of time per call = 3.5 minutes

Standard deviation (sd) = 0.7 minutes

Probability that length of calls last between 3.5 and 4.0 minutes :

P(3.5 < x < 4):

Find z- score of 3.5:

z = (x - m) / sd

x = 3.5

z = (3.5 - 3.5) / 0.7 = 0

x = 4

z = (4.0 - 3.5) / 0.7 = 0.5 / 0.7 = 0.71

P(3.5 < x < 4) = P( 0 < z < 0.714)

From the z - distribution table :

0 = 0.500

0.71 = very close to 0.7611

(0.7611 - 0.5000) = 0.2611

P(3.5 < x < 4) = P( 0 < z < 0.714) = 0.2611

The owner of a chain of supermarkets notices that there is a positive correlation between the sales of beer and the sales of ice
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

D. the sale of beer and ice cream may both be affected by another variable such as the outside temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. There is no evidence to indicate that the positive correlation observed is an error.

B. Even though there is a positive correlation between beer and ice cream sales, there is no evident cause and consequence relationship.

C. The relationship isn't necessarily linear.

D. It is plausible to assume that the sales of beer and ice cream are both affected by another variable like temperature. Both of the products are usually consumed cold and should see an increase in sales during warmer seasons and a decrease in sales during colder seasons.

One year,the price of wheat was $8.87 per bushel.The next year,the price was $9.60. Round the price per bushel of wheat for each
stellarik [79]
<span>So the given numbers are:
=> One year, the price of wheat is 8.87 dollars
=> the next year, the price of wheat is 9.60 dollars.
We were asked to round each prices of bushels of wheat to its nearest tenths.
=> 8.87, where 8 before the decimal point is ones, 8 next to decimal point is tenths and 7 is the hundredths.
=>round off to the nearest tenths
=> 8.9
=> next is 9.60, where 9 is the ones value, 6 is the tenths value and 0 is the hundredths.
=> round off to nearest tenths
=> 9.6
