Answer:

5:00 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the umber of hours

y ----> the total distance in miles

we know that

The distance is equal to the speed multiplied by the time

Find out the distance traveled by Ariel at 11:00 am

11:00 am-09:00 am=2 hours

45(2)=90 miles

so

<em>Ariel's linear equation is</em>

y=45x+90 ----> equation A

<em>Ariel's brother linear equation is</em>

y=60x ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B

60x=45x+90

Solve for x

60x-45x=90

15x=90

x=6\ hours

Adds 11:00 am + 6 hours=17:00 =5:00 pm

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(240-210) -1.984 \sqrt{\frac{8.6^2}{100}+\frac{5.7^2}{100}}=27.953

(240-210) +1.984 \sqrt{\frac{8.6^2}{100}+\frac{5.7^2}{100}}=32.047

And the confidence interval for the difference is between:

27.953 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 32.047

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given:

\bar X_1 = 240 sample mean for medium Pizzas from Prim's

\bar X_2 = 210 sample mean for medium Pizzas from Pizza Place

s_1 =8.6 sample deviation for Prim's

s_2 =5.7 sample deviation for Pizza Palca

n_1 =n_2 = 100  sample size selected for each case

The confidence interval for the difference of means is given by:

(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm t_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1} +\frac{s^2_2}{n_2}}

And for the 95% confidence we need a significance level of \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, the degrees of freedom are given by:

df= n_1 +n_2 -2= 100+100-2 =98

And the critical value would be

t_{\alpha/2}= 1.984

And replacing we got:

(240-210) -1.984 \sqrt{\frac{8.6^2}{100}+\frac{5.7^2}{100}}=27.953

(240-210) +1.984 \sqrt{\frac{8.6^2}{100}+\frac{5.7^2}{100}}=32.047

And the confidence interval for the difference is between:

27.953 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 32.047

Korvikt [17]
First month she payed 1451 dollars

Second month she payed 1/3 of that, which is:
1451/3 = 483.66

Third month she payed 1/3 of 483.66 because as text says, every next month she pays 1/3 of previous month payed amount.

483.66/3 = 161.22

Forth month she payed

161.22/3 = 53.74

In total she payed:

$2149.62 - B.

hope this helps :)

The base of pyramid A is a rectangle with a length of 10 meters and a width of 20 meters. The base of pyramid B is a square with
ollegr [7]
Given:
Pyramid A: Base is rectangle with length of 10 meters and width of 20 meters.
Pyramid B: Base is square with 10 meter sides.
Heights are the same.

Volume of rectangular pyramid = (L * W * H) / 3
Volume of square pyramid = a² * h/3

Let us assume that the height is 10 meters.
V of rectangular pyramid = (10m * 20m * 10m)/3 = 2000/3 = 666.67 m³
V of square pyramid = (10m)² * 10/3 = 100m² * 3.33 = 333.33 m³

The volume of pyramid A is TWICE the volume of pyramid B.

If the height of pyramid B increases to twice the of pyramid A, (from 10m to 20m),  

V of square pyramid = (10m)² * (10*2)/3 = 100m² * 20m/3 = 100m² * 6.67m = 666.67 m³

The new volume of pyramid B is EQUAL to the volume of pyramid A.
