Answer:

8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, the scale of a map says that 8 cm represents 5 km. We need  to find the  actual number of kilometers that is represented by 5 centimeters on the map.

8 cm = 5 km

1 cm = (8/5) km

For 5 cm, multiply (8/5) km by 5.

So,

x = 8 km

So, 8 km is represented by 5 centimeters on the map.

The quantities in the proportion you give add to 16 pounds, of which 2 pounds are cement. That is, cement constitutes 1/8 of the total weight.

For each yard of concrete, 4000 lb/8 = 500 lb of cement are used.

For 12.5 yards of concrete, 12.5 * 500 = 6,250 pounds of cement will be used.

_____
"yard" in this case is shorthand for "cubic yard".

Jane builds a ramp made of a triangular prism and a rectangular prism. What is the volume
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Correct option: third one ->  11.5 m3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the ramp, first we need to find the volume of the rectangular prism and the volume of the triangular prism:

V_rectangular = 4m * 2m * 1m = 8 m3

V_triangular = (2m * 3.5m * 1m) / 2 = 3.5 m3

Now, to find the volume of the ramp, we just need to sum both volumes:

V_total = V_rectangular + V_triangular = 8 + 3.5 = 11.5 m3

Correct option: third one.

podryga [215]

Answer:

test statistic (Z) is 2.5767 and p-value of the test is .009975

Step-by-step explanation:

H_{0}: percentage of students who smoke did not change

H_{a}: percentage of students who smoke has changed

z-statistic for the sample proportion can be calculated as follows:

z=\frac{p(s)-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{N} } } where

  • p(s) is the sample proportion of smoking students (\frac{50}{200} =0.25)
  • p is the proportion of smoking students in the survey conducted five years ago (18% or 0.18)
  • N is the sample size (200)

Then, z=\frac{0.25-0.18}{\sqrt{\frac{0.18*0.82}{200} } } ≈ 2.5767

What is being surveyed is if the percentage of students who smoke has changed over the last five years, therefore we need to seek two tailed p-value, which is .009975.

This p value is significant at 99% confidence level. Since .009975 <α/2=0.005, there is significant evidence that the percentage of students who smoke has changed over the last five years

BabaBlast [244]
Converting all values to decimal, we have
1/5 = 0.2
19% - 19/100 = 0.19

Therefore the snack that contains 19% has the least amount of calories from fat.
