When you think of the situation as a whole, you may notice that the lines in the problem actually form a triangle. First, the man driving 10 miles east forms a bottom leg of the triangle 10 units long. When he drives the 2 miles north, he adds another leg of 2 units length. When the place of work is connected to the starting position through a line, a third and final line is drawn which creates the triangle.
So, how can we find the direct distance from his place of work to his home? We can use the Pythagorean Theorem (
, where 
and 
are the lengths of the legs of the triangle and 
is the length of the hypotenuse). We know that the lengths of the legs are 10 and 2, which we can use in the formula, as shown below:
Now, we can solve this equation for :
The distance would be √104 miles, or approximately 10.2 miles.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Sample statistics are used to estimate population value. Since 48% is a sample proportion, therefore, it is a sample statistic.
b) For 95% confidence level, z* = 1.96.
\hat{p}\pm z^* \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}= 0.61\pm 0.61\sqrt{\frac{0.61(1-0.61)}{1578}}=0.61\pm 0.024 \ or (0.586, 0.634).
We are 95% confident that the true proportion of US residents who think marijuana should be made legal lies between 58.6% and 63.4%.
c)
\\np=1578(0.61)=962.58
\\n(1-p)=1578(1-0.61)=615.42
Since both np and n(1-p), are at least 10, the normal model is a good approximation for these data.
d) As the lower limit of confidence interval is less than 0.5, less than 50% population is also a plausible value of true proportion. This means the statement "Majority of Americans think marijuana should be legalized" is not justified.
Answer:
-0.5, 2, 4.5, 7, 9.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given terms are 6 apart, so the common difference is 1/6 of their difference:
d = (12 -(-3))/6 = 15/6 = 5/2 = 2.5
Add 2.5 to each term to get the next one. Then the sequence is ...
-3, <u>-0.5</u>, <u>2.0</u>, <u>4.5</u>, <u>7.0</u>, <u>9.5</u>, 12
