Answer:

Option D is correct.

An equation: h = 28000 -2000m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represents the height of the airplane and m represents the minutes.

As per the given statement: An airplane 28,000 feet above ground begins descending at a constant rate of 2,000 feet per minute.

At ground m = 0

h(0) = 28000 feet.

⇒ An airplane descending at a constant rate (r) = - 2000 feet per minute

then,

height(h) of the airplane after m minutes is given by:

h(m) = 28000 - rm ; where r is the rate descending at constant rate and m is the minutes.

Substitute the given values we get;

h(m)= 28000 -2000m

Therefore, an equation which gives the height, h of the airplane after m minutes is; h = 28000 -2000m

The product of two rational numbers is -28/75. If one of the numbers is 14/25, find the other
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the missing number

  • x*\frac{14}{25} = \frac{-28}{75}
  • x = \frac{-28}{75} * \frac{25}{14}          inverse 14/25 since it's a fraction
  • x = \frac{-28*25}{75*14}
  • x = \frac{-4*7*25}{25*3*7*2}          write 75 as 25*3 and -28 as -4*7 to simplify
  • x = \frac{-4}{6}            -4 is left on the top and 6 = 3*2
  • x = \frac{-3*2}{2*2}
  • x=   \frac{-3}{2}

IRISSAK [1]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

equations

  • 20a +10c = 15000
  • c = 3a

solution

  • 300 adult
  • 900 children's
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let "a" and "c" represent the numbers of adult and children's tickets sold, respectively. The problem statement tells us two relationships between these values:

... 20a +10c = 15000 . . . . . . total revenue from ticket sales

... c = 3a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . relationship between numbers of tickets sold

Using the expression for c, we can substitute into the first equation to get ...

... 20a +10(3a) = 15000

... 50a = 15000

... a = 15000/50 = 300 . . . . . adult tickets sold

... c = 3·300 = 900 . . . . . children's tickets sold

Unoccupied seats on flights cause airlines to lose revenue. Suppose a large airline wants to estimate its average number of unoc
Bingel [31]

Answer:

We need a sample size of at least 719

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How large a sample size is required to vary population mean within 0.30 seat of the sample mean with 95% confidence interval?

This is at least n, in which n is found when M = 0.3, \sigma = 4.103. So

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

0.3 = 1.96*\frac{4.103}{\sqrt{n}}

0.3\sqrt{n} = 1.96*4.103

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*4.103}{0.3}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*4.103}{0.3})^{2}

n = 718.57

Inga [223]

Answer:

a)  95% confidence interval for the population proportion of all young adults in Kentucky who received help from their parents.

( 0.0761 , 0.3239)

b) Margin of error  =  0.1264.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

Given '8' persons in a random sample of 40 young adults who recently purchased a home in Kentucky received help from their parents.

sample proportion of success 'p' = \frac{8}{40} = 0.2

q = 1=p

q = 1-0.2 = 0.8

a)

95% confidence interval for the population proportion of all young adults in Kentucky who received help from their parents.

(p-1.96\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} } , p+1.96\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} } )

(0.2-1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2X0.8}{40} } , 0.2+1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2X0.8}{40} } )

(0.2 - 0.1239,0.2+0.1239)

( 0.0761 , 0.3239)

b) the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion.

For the 95% confidence interval ∝= 0.05 and zₐ = 1.96≅2.

Margin of error = \frac{2\sqrt{pq} }{\sqrt{n} }

Margin of error = \frac{2\sqrt{0.2X0.8} }{\sqrt{40} }

Margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion.

Margin of error  =  0.1264.

Four brothers each bought two hotdogs and a bag of chips at the concession stand.if the bag of chips was $1.25,and the total was
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

  $1.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The total purchase can be described by ...

  4(2h +1.25) = 18.20 . . . . where h is the price of a hot dog

  8h = 13.20 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5.00

  h = 1.65 . . . . . divide by 8

The price of a hot dog was $1.65.
