Andrea's family stopped at the gas station to get gas. At gas stations, the price of gas per gallon is given to the nearest thou

sandth. In order to determine how much money he would need to pay for the gas, Andrea's dad asked her to round the price of gas per gallon to the nearest hundredth.The gas price per gallon rounded to the nearest hundredth was $2.50. Which of the following prices could have been the original gas price?

Answer:

The answer is 2.498

Step-by-step explanation:

When you use a placement chart you need a number in thousandths place since you must round from the hundredths. 2.50 original price is

2._____ 2. 498 8 is bigger than 4 so the answer is 2.498

One hundredth is 0.01. If a number is above 4 it is rounded up.  If it is below five, it is rounded down. 3 is rounded down to $2.49.  8 is rounded up to give $2.50.  5 is rounded up to give $2.51.  9 is rounded up to give $2.51.  The answer is $2.498.

Suppose that the IQs of university​ A's students can be described by a normal model with mean 140 and standard deviation 8 poi
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

0.0266, 0.9997,0.7856

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the IQs of university​ A's students can be described by a normal model with mean 140 and standard deviation 8 points. Also suppose that IQs of students from university B can be described by a normal model with mean 120 and standard deviation 11. Let x be the score by A students and Y the score of B.

A)P(X>135) = \\P(Z>0.625)\\=0.0266

B) Since X and Y are independent we have

X-Y is Normal with mean = 140-120 =20 and Var (x-y)=Var(x)+Var(y) = 19

P(X-Y)>5\\\\=1-0.00029\\=0.9997

C) For a group of 3, average has std deviation = \frac{11}{\sqrt{3} } \\=6.351

P(\bar y >115)\\= P(z>\frac{-5}{6.351} \\=0.7856

Function g can be thought as scaled version of f(x)=x^2
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

g(x)=-\frac{1}{4} x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is reflected against the x-axis, meaning it is negative

Next, we see that the graph is stretched out, therefor we have a fraction

The fraction is -1/4

You can check by inputting the x values into the x variable.

The diameter of Circle Q terminates on the circumference of the circle at (0,3) and (0,-4). Write the equation of the circle in
Gnesinka [82]
First, determine the center of the circle by getting the midpoint of the points given for the circumference.
                    midpoint = ((0 + 0)/2, (3 + -4)/2)
                          midpoint (0, -0.5)
Then, we get the radius by determining the distance from either of the circumferential point to the center. 
                        radius = √(0 -  0)² + (3 +4)²  = 7
The equation for the circle would be,
                        x² + (y + 0.5)² = 7²

The life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed with a mean of 40,000 and a standard deviation of 5,00
timama [110]

Answer: the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles is 0.067

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = life expectancy of the brand of tire in miles.

µ = mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 40000 miles

σ = 5000 miles

The probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles

P(x = 47500)

For x = 47500,

z = (40000 - 47500)/5000 = - 1.5

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.067

An unloaded truck and trailer, with the driver aboard, weighs 30{,}00030,00030, comma, 000 pounds. When fully loaded, the truck
kari74 [83]

Answer:

1131 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that an unloaded truck and trailer, with the driver aboard, weighs 30,000 pounds. When fully loaded, the truck holds 26 pallets of cargo, and each of the 18 tires of the fully loaded semi-truck bears approximately 3,300 pounds.

First of all, we will find weight of 18 tires by multiplying 18 by 3,300 as:

\text{Weight of tires of the fully loaded semi-truck}=18\times 3,300

\text{Weight of tires of the fully loaded semi-truck}=59,400

The weight of 26 pallets would be weight of 18 tires minus weight of unloaded truck.

\text{Weight of 26 pallets of cargo}=59,400-30,000

\text{Weight of 26 pallets of cargo}=29,400

Now, we will divide 29,400 by 26 to find average weight of one pallet of cargo.

\text{Average weight of one pallet of cargo}=\frac{29,400}{26}

\text{Average weight of one pallet of cargo}=1130.769230769

\text{Average weight of one pallet of cargo}\approx 1131

Therefore, the average weight of one pallet of cargo is approximately 1131 pounds.
