The items here are the following:

a 3.4 lb sleeping mat

a 4.6 lb camping bag

a 2.2 lb water bottle

 

The expression is 3.4x + 4.6x + 2.2x

8.0 + 2.2 = 10.2 x

The 10.2 pounds is the weight for each hiker. Meaning, this is the weight carried by each x hikers.

A random sample of 28 statistics tutorials was selected from the past 5 years and the percentage of students absent from each on
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval using Student's t-distribution is (9.22, 11.61).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the sample is not big enough to use a z-distribution, we use student's t-distribution instead.

The formula to calculate the confidence interval is given by:

\bar{x}\pm t_{n-1} \times s/\sqrt{n}

Where:

\bar{x} is the sample's mean,

t_{n-1} is t-score with n-1 degrees of freedom,

s is the standard error,

n is the sample's size.

This part of the equation is called margin of error:

s/\sqrt{n}

We know that:

n=28

\bar{x}=10.41

degrees of freedom = 27

1-\alpha = 0.90 \Rightarrow \alpha = 0.10

t_{n-1} = 1.703

s = 3.71

Replacing in the formula with the corresponding values we obtain the confidence interval:

\bar{x}\pm t_{n-1} \times s/\sqrt{n} = 10.41 \pm 1.70 \times 3.71/\sqrt{28} = (9.22, 11.61)

Mission Control sends a signal to a Mars robot to travel to a mysterious rock 52.8 meters away. A return signal 59.0 minutes lat
Andrei [34K]
The response time includes the round-trip signal time plus the robot's travel time.
  59 min = 2*(9.5 min) +travel time
  59 min -2*(9.5 min) = travel time = 40 min

The speed is distance / travel time
  speed = (52.8 m)/(40 min) = 1.32 m/min

The robot's average speed was 1.32 meters per minute.

Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day. He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he play
ioda

Answer:

Part A:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

Part B : 35 minutes

Part C : No

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Part A :

Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day

x+y= 95

Where:

x =the number of minutes Eric plays basketball

y= the number of minutes he plays volleyball  

He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he plays volleyball.

x = y+25

System:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

  • Part B:

Replacing x=y+25 on the first equation:

(y+25) + y =95

Solving for Y

y+25+y =95

25+2y=95

2y=95-25

2y=70

y = 70/2

y = 35 minutes

Part C : No

if x = 35

x+y= 95

35+y =95

y= 95-35

y = 60 minutes

Replacing y=60 on the other equation:

x = y+25

35 = 60+25

35 ≠85
