A certain car traveling at 34.0 mph skids to a stop in 29 meters from the point where the brakes were applied. in approximately

<span>Using the kinematic equations: (final velocity)^2 = (initial velocity)^2 - 2 * acceleration * distance Assuming the acceleration/deceleration on the car is constant from a constant force on the brakes. Converting from mph to m/s using 0.447 (so 34 mph is 15.2 m/s) (0)^2 = (15.2)^2 - 2 * acceleration * 29 acceleration = 4.0 m/s^2 Had the car been going 105.4 mph (47.1 m/s) (0)^2 = (47.1)^2 - 2 * 4 * distance distance = 277 meters</span>

A random sample of 28 statistics tutorials was selected from the past 5 years and the percentage of students absent from each on
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

X: number of absences per tutorial per student over the past 5 years(percentage)

X≈N(μ;σ²)

You have to construct a 90% to estimate the population mean of the percentage of absences per tutorial of the students over the past 5 years.

The formula for the CI is:

X[bar] ± Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }

⇒ The population standard deviation is unknown and since the distribution is approximate, I'll use the estimation of the standard deviation in place of the population parameter.

Number of Absences 13.9 16.4 12.3 13.2 8.4 4.4 10.3 8.8 4.8 10.9 15.9 9.7 4.5 11.5 5.7 10.8 9.7 8.2 10.3 12.2 10.6 16.2 15.2 1.7 11.7 11.9 10.0 12.4

X[bar]= 10.41

S= 3.71

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.95}= 1.645

[10.41±1.645*(\frac{3.71}{\sqrt{28} } )]

[9.26; 11.56]

Using a confidence level of 90% you'd expect that the interval [9.26; 11.56]% contains the value of the population mean of the percentage of absences per tutorial of the students over the past 5 years.

I hope this helps!

A clock gains 4 minutes every hour. One day it is set to the correct time, 9:00 AM. What is the correct time when the clock show
Serhud [2]
First we have to figure out how many hours have passed. Since 1PM also means 1300 hours, we'll subtract 9 from 13. 13-9=4. therefore, 4 hours have passed. if it gains 4 minutes every hour, we'll multiply the amount of hours that have passed by the amount the clock gains every hour. 4x4=16. now we subtract 16 from 1300 because the clock is ahead of the real time, but remember and hour only has 60 minutes! 1300-16=1244. Therefore, the correct time is 12:44PM.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

s = \frac{4p}{3} -100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p = \frac{3(s + 100)}{4}

Required

Solve for s

p = \frac{3(s + 100)}{4}

Multiply both sides by 4

4 * p = \frac{3(s + 100)}{4} * 4

4 * p = 3(s + 100)

4p = 3(s + 100)

Open bracket

4p = 3s + 300

Subtract 300 from both sides

4p -300= 3s + 300 -300

4p -300= 3s

Divide both sides by 3

\frac{4p -300}{3}= \frac{3s}{3}

\frac{4p -300}{3}= s

s = \frac{4p -300}{3}

Split

s = \frac{4p}{3} -\frac{300}{3}

s = \frac{4p}{3} -100

Nataly [62]

Answer:

0.002

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to estimate the standard error of the mean, so we can use it as a standard deviation of the sample of 50 males.

Standard error of the mean = standard deviation/√n

Standard error of the mean = 32/√50 = 4.52

Now we can use this Standard error of the mean to estimate z as follows:

Z = (x – mean)/standard deviation

Z = (190-177)/4.52

Z = 2.87

Using  a Z table we can find probability that mean is under 190

P (z<190)= 0.998

For the probability that the mean exceed 190 lbs we substract from 1

P(z>190) = 1 - 0.998 = 0.002
