Sammy the turtle can walk 1/8 of a mile in an hour.How many hours will it take him to walk 1^1/4 miles?

Automobile mechanics conduct diagnostic tests on 150 new cars of a particular make and model to determine the extent to which th

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

99% Confidence interval: (0.185,0.375)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 150

Number of cars that have faulty catalytic converters, x = 42

$\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{42}{150} = 0.28$

99% Confidence interval:

$\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.01} = \pm 2.58$

Putting the values, we get:

$0.28\pm 2.58(\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{150}}) = 0.28\pm 0.095\\\\=(0.185,0.375)$

The 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of new cars with faulty catalytic converters is (0.185,0.375)

A machine fills boxes weighing Y lb with X lb of salt, where X and Y are normal with mean 100 lb and 5 lb and standard deviation

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Option b. None is the correct option.

The Answer is 63%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this question, we would be using the z score formula

The formula for calculating a z-score is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ,

where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

We have boxes X and Y. So we will be combining both boxes

Mean of X = 100 lb

Mean of Y = 5 lb

Total mean = 100 + 5 = 105lb

Standard deviation for X = 1 lb

Standard deviation for Y = 0.5 lb

Remember Variance = Standard deviation ²

Variance for X = 1lb² = 1

Variance for Y = 0.5² = 0.25

Total variance = 1 + 0.25 = 1.25

Total standard deviation = √Total variance

= √1.25

Solving our question, we were asked to find the percent of filled boxes weighing between 104 lb and 106 lb are to be expected. Hence,

For 104lb

z = (x-μ)/σ,

z = 104 - 105 / √25

z = -0.89443

Using z score table ,

P( x = z)

P ( x = 104) = P( z = -0.89443) = 0.18555

For 1061b

z = (x-μ)/σ,

z = 106 - 105 / √25

z = 0.89443

Using z score table ,

P( x = z)

P ( x = 106) = P( z = 0.89443) = 0.81445

P(104 ≤ Z ≤ 106) = 0.81445 - 0.18555

= 0.6289

Converting to percentage, we have :

0.6289 × 100 = 62.89%

Approximately = 63 %

Therefore, the percent of filled boxes weighing between 104 lb and 106 lb that are to be expected is 63%

Since there is no 63% in the option, the correct answer is Option b. None.

Here is a scale drawing of a window frame that uses a scale of 1 cm to 6 inches.Create another scale drawing of the window frame

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is the rectangle in the attachment.

Current scale:

1 cm : 6 inches

If the dimensions of the rectangle is:

Length = a cm

Width = b cm

Using the scale:

Length = a × 6 inches

Width = b × 6 inches

Using the same dimensions of the rectangle is:

Length = a cm

Width = b cm

Using the scale:

Length = a × 12 inches

Width = b × 12 inches

Note that there is an enlargement of the rectangle to form the new rectangle. The length and width of new rectangle drawn will be 2 × the length and width of the rectangle seen below.

triangle JKL is rotated 270 degrees counterclockwise about the origin to form triangle jkl what is the y-coordinate of point j

IRINA_888 [86]

The y-coordinate of point j' in the image triangle J'K'L' is -x coordinate of point j in the initial triangle JKL.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule to apply here is that of 90° clockwise about the origin.

This is to say that: rotation 270° counterclockwise about the origin applies the same rule as rotation 90° clockwise about the origin.

In this case, If point j has coordinates (x,y) then after the rotation j' will have coordinates (y,-x)

So the y-coordinate of point j' in the image triangle J'K'L' is -x coordinate of point j in the initial triangle JKL.
