On a roadtrip, the distance driven can be represented by
the following equation
y = 152
where x is the number of gallons of gas.
What does the 15 represent?

Answers

Answer 1

15 represent the car travled 15 miles / gallons.

Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.

We have been given that -

 y = 15 * x

Where y = the distance and

x = the number of gallons of gas to cover that distance.

A common unit of capacity in English-speaking countries, equal to four quarts, the U.S. standard gallon being equal to 231 cubic inches (3.7853 liters), and the British imperial gallon to 277.42 cubic inches (4.546 liters).

Consider the units:

y[miles] = 15[??] * x[gallons]

15[??] = y[miles] / x[gallons]

[??] = [miles] / [gallons]

So the units of the parameter 15 must be [miles / gallon] to convert the gallons to miles.

Therefore 15  represents the miles / gallon for the vehicle.

A random sample of 400 voters in a certain city are asked if they favor an additional 4% gasoline tax to provide badly needed revenues for street repairs. If more than 220 but fewer than 260 favor the sales tax, we shall conclude that 60% of the voters are for it.a.) Find the probability of committing a type I error if 60% of the voters favor the increased tax.b.) What is the probability of committing a type II error using this test procedure if actually 48% of the voters are in favor of the additional gasoline tax?

Answers

Answer:

A) α = 0.04136

B) β = 0.00256

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Sample size; n = 400

Proportion; p = 60% = 0.6

Formula for mean is;

μ = np

μ = 400 × 0.6 = 240

Standard deviation is given by;

σ = √npq

Where q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

σ = √(400 × 0.6 × 0.4)

σ = √96

σ = 9.8

A) our null hypothesis is at p = 0.6

Probability of making a type I error means we reject the null hypothesis when it is true.

This can be expressed in reference to the question as;

α = P(x < 220) + P(x > 260) all at p = 0.6

Now,

P(x < 220) = z = (x¯ - μ)/σ = (220 - 240)/9.8 = -2.04

Also;

P(x > 260) = z = (260 - 240)/9.8 = 2.04

Now, from z-distribution table probability of a z-score of -2.04 is 0.02068.

Also, probability of z-score of 2.04 is (1 - P(z < 2.04) = 1 - 0.97932 = 0.02068

Thus;

α = 0.02068 + 0.02068

α = 0.04136

B) Type II error occurs when we fail to reject the null hypothesis even though it's false.

In this case our alternative hypothesis is at p = 48% = 0.48

Thus;

μ = np

μ = 400 × 0.48 = 192

Standard deviation is given by;

σ = √npq

Where q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.48 = 0.52

σ = √(400 × 0.48 × 0.52)

σ = √99.84

σ = 9.992

Type II error would be given by;

β = [((x1¯ - μ)/σ) < z > ((x2¯ - μ)/σ)]

β = [((220 - 192)/9.992) < z > ((260 - 192)/9.992)]

β = (2.8 < z > 6.81)

Rearranging this gives us;

β = P(z < 6.81) - P(z < 2.8)

From z-distribution tables, we have;

β = 1 - 0.99744

β = 0.00256

In this exercise, we have to calculate the gasoline rates, and the answer will be:

A)[tex]\alpha= 0.04136[/tex]

B)[tex]\beta= 0.00256[/tex]

We are given that the sample size; n = 400, proportion; p = 60% = 0.6 so the formula for mean is;

[tex]\mu= np\\\mu=(400)(0.6)= 240[/tex]

Standard deviation is given by;

[tex]\sigma= \sqrt{npq}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]q = 1 \\p= 0.6\\q-p=0.4[/tex]

[tex]\sigma= \sqrt{(400)(0.6)(0.4)} \\=\sqrt{96} = 9.8[/tex]

A)Our null hypothesis is at p = 0.6. Probability of making a type I error means we reject the null hypothesis when it is true. This can be expressed in reference to the question as:

[tex]\alpha= P(x<220)+P(x>260)[/tex]

Now,

[tex]P(x < 220) = z = (x^-- \mu)/\sigma = (220 - 240)/9.8 = -2.04\\P(x > 260) = z = (260 - 240)/9.8 = 2.04[/tex]

Now, from z-distribution table probability of a z-score of -2.04 is 0.02068. Also, probability of z-score of 2.04 is:

[tex](1 - P(z < 2.04) = 1 - 0.97932 = 0.02068[/tex]

Thus;

[tex]\alpha= 0.02068+0.02068\\\alpha= 0.04136[/tex]

B) Type II error occurs when we fail to reject the null hypothesis even though it's false. In this case our alternative hypothesis is at p = 48% = 0.48. Thus:

[tex]\mu= np\\\mu= (400)(0.48)=192[/tex]

Standard deviation is given by;

[tex]\sigma= \sqrt{npq} \\=\sqrt{(400)(0.48)(0.52)} = 9.992[/tex]

Type II error would be given by:

[tex]\beta= [((x^{-1} - \mu)/\sigma) < z > ((x^{-2} - \mu)/\sigma)]\\= [((220 - 192)/9.992) < z > ((260 - 192)/9.992)]\\= \beta = (2.8 < z > 6.81)\\[/tex]

Rearranging this gives us:

[tex]\beta = P(z < 6.81) - P(z < 2.8)\\= 0.00256[/tex]

Superman needs to save Lois from the clutches of Lex Luthor. After flying for 7 seconds, he is 1708 meters
from her. Then at 11 seconds he is 1484 meters from her.
What is Superman's average rate?
meters per second
How far does Superman fly every 13 seconds?
meters
How close to Lois is Superman after 24 seconds?
meters

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1) rate = ( 1484 - 1708) ÷ ( 11 - 7) = - 56 m/ s

2) rate × 13 = - 56 × 13 = - 728 m per 13 s

3) rate = - 56

t = 24 s

d = - 56 × 24 = 1344 m

whole distance = 2100

7 × 56 = 392

and he flay till 1708 then whole distance = 392 + 1708

so the remaining distance between him and her

2100 - 1344 = 756 m

A carpenter has 183 doorknobs in his workshop. Of those doorknobs, 95 are round and the rest are square. If he wants to place 9 square doorknobs in each bin, about how many bins would he need? The carpenter will need about bins.

Answers

Answer:

10 bins needed approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Total door knobs = 183

Round door knobs = 95

Square door knobs = x

Total door knobs = Round door knobs + Square door knobs

183 = 95 + x

183 - 95 = x

88 = x

Square door knobs = x = 88

If he wants to place 9 square doorknobs in each bin, about how many bins would he need?

Divide total square knobs by square knobs in each bin

Total bins needed = Total square knobs / knobs in each bin

= 88 / 9

= 9.78

Approximately 10 to the nearest number of bins

Bins needed is approximately 10

At a real estate agency, an agent sold a house for $397,000. The commission rate is 4.5% for the real estate agency and the commission rate for the agent is 20% of the amount the real estate agency gets. How much did the agency make on the house? How much did the agent earn in commission?

Answers

Answer:

1. $97,265

2. $17,865

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

cost of the house=  $397,000.

we are told that the commission is 4.5% real estate agency

and also the agent commission is 20%

Step two:

1.  How much did the agency make on the house?

this amount is 20% plus  4.5% together.

=20/100*397,000 +4.5/100*397,000

=0.2*397,000. +0.045*397,000.

=79400+17865

=97,265

The agent made a total of $97,265 on the house

2. How much did the agent earn in commission?

in commission, the rate is 4.5% which amounts to $17,865

Answers

Answer:

Point-slope form: y + 5 = 13/-4 (x-1)

Slope-intercept form:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so first to find the equation in point-slope form, you need to find the slope. So, the slope would be 7- (-5)/-3-1 , which is 13/-4. That is your slope, or m. Now, for point-slope form, you have the equation y - y1 = 13/-4 (x-x1). Now, you take one of your points, say (1, -5), and you put it into the equation. So your point-slope form equation would be y - (-5) = 13/-4 (x - 1). This would simplify to y + 5 = 13/-4(x - 1).

Now for slope-intercept form, you have m, the slope, which is 13/-4. Substituting that into the equation, you have y = 13/-4x + b. To find b, you substitute one of your coordinates into the equation. For example, (1, -5). Then you have -5 = (13/-4 * 1) +b. Simplify this, and you have b = -5+ 13/-4, which is -20/4 + 13/-4, which is -20/4 - 13/4 = -33/4. So your final equation is y = 13/-4x - 33/4.

Answer:

Option 2: y+2=−2(x−5) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see two points on the line A and B.

Their coordinates are:

A = (x1,y1) = (1,6)

B = (x2,y2) = (5,-2)

The point slope form is given as:

[tex]y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Here m is the slope which is found using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Putting the values

[tex]m = \frac{-2-6}{5-1}\\m=\frac{-8}{4}\\m = -2[/tex]

Putting the value of slope

[tex]y-y1 = -2(x-x_1)[/tex]

Putting both points to get two forms of point slope form of equation

Putting (1,6):

[tex]y-6 = -2(x-1)[/tex]

Putting (5,-2):

[tex]y+2 = -2(x-5)[/tex]

Looking at the equations and options it can be concluded that
