the same number of seeds.

Answers

Answer 1
15 pots

Step by step explanation

....
Answer 2

We can have the following cases:

5 pots and each pot has 15 seeds.

3 pots and each pot has 25 seeds.

15 pots and each pot has 5 seeds.

What are factors of a number?

Factors are the numbers that divides another number with no remainder.

Given,

Davi has 75 flower seeds.
Every seed is planted.

Every pot has the same number of seeds.

Find the number of pots.

We have,

Total seeds = 75

Since every seed must be planted we can have the following cases.

Case1 - 5 x 15

Here there are 5 pots and each pot has 15 seeds

Case2 - 3 x 25

Here there are 3 pots and each pot has 25 seeds.

Case3 - 15 x 5

Here there are 15 pots and each pot has 5 seeds.

Thus we can have the following answer:

5 pots and each pot has 15 seeds.

3 pots and each pot has 25 seeds.

15 pots and each pot has 5 seeds.

A company specializing in building robots that can clean your house has found that the average amount of time kids spend cleaning their houses is about 2 hours per week. If their sample size was 1000 randomly chosen kids and the standard deviation was 0.3 hours, what is the margin of error for a confidence interval of 95%?

Answers

Answer:

0.588

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error is:

ME = CV × SE

where CV is the critical value (z score or t score), and SE is the standard error (standard deviation of the sample).

Since n is large, we can approximate as a normal distribution.  At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96.

Therefore, the margin of error is:

ME = 1.96 × 0.3

ME = 0.588

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval was of 0.0186.

What is a z-distribution confidence interval?

The interval is:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation for the population.

The margin of error is given by:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.

The standard deviation for the population and the sample size are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\sigma = 0.3, n = 1000[/tex]

Hence, the margin of error is given by:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 1.96\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{1000}}[/tex]

M = 0.0186.

Answers

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find equivalent fractions, we can multiply or divide the original fraction by 1, since it won't change the value.

That means, dividing the numerator and denominator by the same integer.

For example, in this case, we divided both the numerator and denominator by 6.

6/6=1

18/6=3

So we divided the entire fraction by 6/6, which doesn't change the value of the fraction, just simplifies it.

Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]: D

Step-by-step explanation:

This is simple, just simplify the fraction.

[tex]\frac{6}{18}[/tex]

You have to find the greatest common factor. In this case, it is 6 because both of them can be divided by 6.

When you divide 6 by 6, you get 1.

When you divide 18 by 6, you get 3.

Therefore, your answer is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3= __/6

you know that that denominator doubles because 3*2=6, so what you do to the denominator you have to do to the numerator and vice versa. 2*2= 4 so the answer would be 4/6

To find 12/__

You should know that everything is equal to 2/3 in this equation. To get from 2 to 12 you need to multiply by 6. what you do to the top you have to do to the bottom. 3*6=18

You times 2/3 by 7 because 3*7=21.

The radius of the earth is 3959 miles. A meteor with a diameter of 750 miles strikes the earth in an unpopulated area. What percent of the earths surface is affected by the meteor strike? Is it a 36% be 0.9% C9% or D3.6%

Answers

Answer:

B. 0.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter of the meteor is 750 miles, then its radius is 750/2 = 375 miles

The radius of the earth is 3959 miles

Assuming that both bodies are spherical, their surface are:

meteor's surface: π*r² = π*375² = 441786.467 miles²

Earth's surface: π*3959² = 49240321.1 miles²

If 49240321.1 miles² represents 100% then 441786.467 miles² represents:

49240321.1 miles² / 100% = 441786.467 miles² / x%

x = 441786.467/49240321.1*100

x = 0.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

A = Acos(12/13) = 22.62°

[tex]a=\frac{2-(-1)}{-2-3} =\frac{2+1}{-5} =-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

So we write its equation: y = -3/5 x + b.

+ Then, now, we replace x = -2 and y = 2 into y = -3/5 x + b for finding b like:

2 = -3/5 * (-2) + b or 2 = 6/5 + b

so b = 2 - 6/5 = 4/5.

Twenty-four 4-inch wide square posts are evenly spaced with 5 feet between adjacent posts to enclose a square field, as shown. What is the outer perimeter, in feet, of the fence? Express your answer as a mixed number.

Answers

Answer:

129 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Alcumus, "There are 20 square posts which are not on a corner, so there are $20/4=5$ square posts on each side, not including the corner posts. Including the corner posts, there are 7 posts on a side, which means that there are 6 five-foot gaps between posts. Altogether the length of a side is $7\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)+6(5)=32\frac{1}{3}$ feet. The perimeter of the square is four times the side length, so the perimeter is $4\cdot 32\frac{1}{3}=\boxed{129\frac{1}{3}}$ feet."

The outer perimeter is 129 1/3 feet.

What is Unitary Method?

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For Example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

Twenty-four 4-inch wide square posts are evenly spaced with 5 feet.

So, there are $20/4

                   =5$ square posts on each side, not including the corner posts.

and, including the corner posts, there are 7 posts on a side, which means that there are 6 five-foot gaps between posts.

Then, the length of a side is

= 7 1/3 + 6(5)

= 32 1/3 feet

and, The perimeter of the square

= 4 x 32 1/3

= 129 1/3 feet

What is the value of the mean absolute deviation of the weight of the boxes, and what does it represent about the weight of a box?

A))1.2 pounds; on average, the weight of a box varies 1.2 pounds from the mean of 4 pounds

B))0.7 pound; the weight of 50% of the boxes is greater than 0.7 pound

C)) 1.2 pounds; the weight of 50% of the boxes is greater than 1.2 pounds

D))0.7 pound; on average, the weight of a box varies 0.7 pound from the mean of 4 pounds

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D. Let me know if you don't understand that.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

To find the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) of the weight of the boxes, first find the mean.

5 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 4 = 24

24/6 = 4

Now find the absolute distance from the mean for each of the numbers by subtracting the mean from each of the numbers. It doesn't matter if it's negative.

5 - 4 = 1

3 - 4 = 1

3 - 4 = 1

4 - 4 = 0

5 - 4 = 1

4 - 4 = 0

Now find the mean of those numbers.

1 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 4

4/6 = 0.7

So now we know the answer is either B or D.

B. 0.7 pound; the weight of 50% of the boxes is greater than 0.7 pound

D. 0.7 pound; on average, the weight of a box varies 0.7 pound from the mean of 4 pounds

Hope this helps! :)

-Peredhel

The value of the mean absolute deviation of the weight of the boxes is 0.7 pounds

Option D is the correct answer.

What is a mean?

It is the average value of the set given.

It is calculated as:

Mean = Sum of all the values of the set given / Number of values in the set

We have,

To find the mean absolute deviation, we first need to find the mean weight of the boxes:

Mean = (5+3+3+4+5+4)/6 = 24/6 = 4 pounds

Next,

We calculate the absolute deviations from the mean for each weight:

So,

|5-4| = 1

|3-4| = 1

|3-4| = 1

|4-4| = 0

|5-4| = 1

|4-4| = 0

Then,

We find the mean of the absolute deviations:

(1+1+1+0+1+0)/6 = 4/6 = 0.67 = 0.7

This means that on average, the weight of a box varies by 0.7 pounds from the mean weight of 4 pounds.

Therefore,

The value of the mean absolute deviation of the weight of the boxes is 0.7 pounds (rounded to one decimal place).
