then uses another 1/4 gallon for the snowstorms on Sunday. Is the fuel tank empty after becky uses the snow thrower on Sunday? Explain. If her fuel tank is not empty again, what single action could have been changed so that it is empty again? Explain.

Amount of fuel in the tank before the story begins . . . . . zero.

Total amount poured in . . . . . 3/4 gallon.

Total amount burned:
                   on Friday . . . . . 1/4 gallon
                   on Sunday . . . . 1/4 gallon
                        Total used . . 1/2 gallon .

Amount remaining in the tank on Monday:

               (3/4 gallon in) - (1/2 gallon burned)  =  1/4 gallon left.
                                                                        ==>  NOT empty

The tank would have been empty on Monday IF Becky
had poured in only 1/2 gallon, instead of 3/4 of a gallon
before the first flakes began to fly.

Answer:

For the sampling distribution,

a) Mean = μₓ = 55.0 students.

b) Standard Deviation = 1.8 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete Question is attached to this solution.

The Central limit theorem explains that for the sampling distribution, the mean is approximately equal to the population mean and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is related to the population standard deviation through

σₓ = (σ/√n)

where σ = population standard deviation = 4

n = sample size = 5

Mean = population mean

μₓ = μ = 55 students.

Standard deviation

σₓ = (σ/√n) = (4/√5) = 1.789 students = 1.8 students to 1 d.p

Hope this Helps!!!

Use exponential form to evaluate log8(2)
maks197457 [2]
<span>Logarithm form is another way to express a number in exponential (exp.) form. log 8 (2) is the same as 8 (x) = 2 or in words, eight with exp. x equals two. If we take that equation and cube both sides, or raise each side to the power of 3, [8 (x)] with exp. 3 = 2 with exp. 3. This simplifies to 8 (3x) = 8. By definition, 8 is the same as 8 with exp. 1. So the equation is now 8 (3x) = 8 (1). This means 3x = 1. We can simplify to x = 1/3.</span>

artcher [175]
Let F be the father's current age, and E be Evie's current age.
F = E + 36                 this is the current relation between the ages
F + 3 = 5(E + 3)        this the relationship in 3 year (hence the + 3)
Then solve by substituting one equation into another:
(E + 36) + 3 = 5(E + 3)
         E + 39 =  5E + 15
                24 = 4E
                  6 = E
Evie's current age is 6.

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, 12/12=1, which I guess is the smallest number we can get, and 12 is divisible by 2 too.
