Complete question:

The line graph relating to the question was not attached. However, the line graph has can be found in the attachment below.

Answer:

17,209

Step-by-step explanation:

The line graph provides information about alcohol-related highway fatalities between year 2001 to 2010.

Determine the average number of alcohol-related fatalities from 2001 to 2006. Round to the nearest whole number.

The average number of alcohol related fatalities between 2001 - 2006 can be calculated thus :

From the graph:

Year - - - - - - - - - - Number of fatalities

2001 - - - - - - - - - - 17401

2002 - - - - - - - - - 17525

2003 - - - - - - - - - 17013

2004 - - - - - - - - - 16694

2005 - - - - - - - - - 16885

2006 - - - - - - - - - 17738

To get the average :

Sum of fatalities / number of years

(17401 + 17525 + 17013 + 16694 + 16885 + 17738) / 6

= 103256 / 6

= 17209.333

Average number of alcohol related fatalities is 17,209 (to the nearest whole number)

If an intravenous solution containing 123 mg of a drug substance in each 250-mL bottle is to be administered at the rate of 200

12345 [234]

Answer:

24.39mL of the solution would be given per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by direct rule of three, in which there are a direct relationship between the measures, which means that the rule of three is a cross multiplication.

The first step to solve this problem is to see how many mg of the solution is administered per hour.

Each minute, 200 ug are administered. 1mg has 1000ug, so

1mg - 1000 ug

xmg - 200 ug

$1000x = 200$

$x = \frac{200}{1000}$

$x = 0.2mg$

In each minute, 0.2 mg are administered. Each hour has 60 minutes. How many mg are administered in 60 minutes?

1 minute - 0.2 mg

60 minutes - x mg

$x = 60*0.2$

$x = 12mg$

In an hour, 12 mg of the drug is administered. In 250 mL, there is 123 mg of the drug. How many ml are there in 12 mg of the drug.

123mg - 250mL

12 mg - xmL

$123x = 250*12$

$x = \frac{250*12}{123}$

$x = 24.39$ mL

24.39mL of the solution would be given per hour.

klio [65]

Answer:

Thirty-two percent of fish in a large lake are bass. Imagine scooping out a simple random sample of 15 fish from the lake and observing the sample proportion of bass. What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution? Determine whether the 10% condition is met.

A. The standard deviation is 0.8795. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 150 bass in the lake.

B. The standard deviation is 0.8795. The 10% condition is not met because there are less than 150 bass in the lake.

C. The standard deviation is 0.1204. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 150 bass in the lake.

D. The standard deviation is 0.1204. The 10% condition is not met because there are less than 150 bass in the lake.

E. We are unable to determine the standard deviation because we do not know the sample mean. The 10% condition is met because it is very likely there are more than 150 bass in the lake

The answer is E.

Which table describes the behavior of the graph of f(x) = 2x3 – 26x – 24?

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

For x∈ {-∞,-3} y<0, below x-axis

x∈ {-3,-1} y>0, above x-axis

x∈ {-1,4} y<0, below x-axis

x∈ {4,∞} y>0, above x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= $2x^{3}-26x-24$

$2x^{3}-26x-24$ =0

$2x^{3}-26x-24=0\\2x^{3}-2x-24x-24=0\\2x(x^{2} -1)-24(x+1)=0\\2x(x+1)(x-1)-24(x+1)=0\\(x+1)(2x^{2} -2x-24)=0\\=> x+1=0 => x_{1}=-1\\$

$=> 2x^{2} -2x-24=0\\=>2(x^{2} -x-12)=0\\=> x^{2} -x-12=0\\=> x^{2} -4x+3x-12=0\\=> x(x-4)+3(x-4)=0\\=> (x-4)(x+3)=0\\$

$=> x-4=0\\=> x_{2}=4\\=> x+3=0\\=>x_{3}=-3\\$

For x∈ {-∞,-3} y<0, below x-axis

x∈ {-3,-1} y>0, above x-axis

x∈ {-1,4} y<0, below x-axis

x∈ {4,∞} y>0, above x-axis

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x+8y -64 Fully reduce your answer.

Lelechka [254]

Answer: I am pretty sure it is y=-1/4x-8. Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:subtract the 2x from both sides which gives you 8y=-2x-64. Then you want to divide both sides by 8 to get y=-1/4x-8

5. the price of an ipod dropped from $299.99 to $180.55. what was the percent decrease in price? (round to nearest hundredth per

max2010maxim [7]

If you would like to know what was the percent decrease in price, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x% of $299.99 is $180.55
x% * 299.99 = 180.55
x/100 * 299.99 = 180.55
x = 180.55 * 100 / 299.99
x = 60.19%

100% - 60.19% = 39.81%

The correct result would be 39.81%.
