Use a proportional reasoning statement like the one in the picture to determine how many feet are in 3 miles. Notice that the conversion fact 1 mile = 5,280 feet is written as a ratio in the picture.

A. x = 15,840 feet
B. x = 10,560 feet
C. x = 21,120 feet
D. x = 26,400 feet



any unrelated answer will be reported​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A 15,840, because 5,280 x 3 is equivalent to A

Answer:

A. x = 15,840 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{5280 feet}{1 mile} =\frac{x feet}{3 miles}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5280}{1} =\frac{x}{3}[/tex]

1 * x = 5,280 * 3

x = 15,840 feet

So, your answer is A. x = 15,840 feet.

the temperature at which water freezes on the celsius scale is 0 degrees C. It freezes at 32 degrees F on the Fahrenheit scale, write opposites fo these two numbers as integers.

Answers

Answer:

If we have an integer number N, the opposite of N will be:

-1*N = -N.

Then, the opposite of 0°C is:

-1*0°C = 0°C.

The number 0 is it's own opposite.

And for 32F, the opposite is:

-1*32F = -32F

So, while the numbers 0°C and 32F physically represent the same thing (the same temperature), mathematically, they behave differently.

Find the value of x and the length of segment AC if point B is between A and C.
AB = 5x, BC = 9x-2, AC = 11x + 7.6
Value of x=
Length of AC is

Answers

Answer: x=3.2     AC= 42.8

Step-by-step explanation:

As point B lies at segment AC      AC=AB+BC

Otherwise we can write the equation

5x+9x-2=11x+7.6

14x-2=11x+7.6

14x-2+2=11x+7.6+2

14x=11x+9.6

14x-11x=11x-11x+9.6

3x=9.6

x=9.6:3

x=3.2

AC= 11*x+7.6= 11*3.2+7.6=35.2+7.6=42.8

One way to calculate the target heart rate of a physically fit adult during exercise is given by the formula h=0.8( 220−x ), where h is the number of heartbeats per minute and x is the age of the person in years. Which formula is equivalent and gives the age of the person in terms of the number of heartbeats per minute?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is:

C. [tex]\bold{x = -1.25h+220}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]h=0.8( 220-x )[/tex]

Where [tex]h[/tex] is the heartbeats per minute and

[tex]x[/tex] is the age of person

To find:

Age of person in terms of heartbeats per minute = ?

To choose form the options:

[tex]A.\ x=176-h\\B.\ x=176-0.8h\\C.\ x=-1.25h+220\\D.\ x=h-0.8220[/tex]

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the given equation:

[tex]h=0.8( 220-x )[/tex]

It is value of [tex]h[/tex] in terms of [tex]x[/tex].

We have to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] in terms of [tex]h[/tex].

Let us divide the equation by 0.8 on both sides:

[tex]\dfrac{h}{0.8}=\dfrac{0.8( 220-x )}{0.8}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{0.8}h=220-x\\\Rightarrow 1.25h=220-x[/tex]

Now, subtracting 220 from both sides:

[tex]\Rightarrow 1.25h-220=220-x-220\\\Rightarrow 1.25h-220=-x[/tex]

Now, multiplying with -1 on both sides:

[tex]-1.25h+220=x\\OR\\\bold{x = -1.25h+220}[/tex]

So, the answer is:

C. [tex]\bold{x = -1.25h+220}[/tex]

Select the best estimate of the capacity of a bath tub. A. 5 ml B. 500 ml C. 50 cl D. 500 L.

Answers

Answer:

D. 500 L

because ml cl is smaller than L

Answer:

D. 500 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Choice A (5 ml) is basically a teaspoon. A bathtub can most definitely hold much more then one teaspoon of water.

Choice B (500 ml) is about 17 ounces. Which is basically the amount of water in a normal water bottle. A bathtub can hold more then the amount of water in one water bottle.

Choice C (50 cl) is a little bit more then 2 cups of water. I believe a normal bathtub can hold about 1280 cups of water.

That rules out choices A, B, and C. By process of elimination, we can tell choice D is the answer. But let's just take a look at D.

Choice D (500 L) is about 132 gallons. This is the most plausible one, although some bathtubs don't hold as much water as that, it still is the best estimate of the capacity of a bath tub. \

If the errors produced by a forecasting method for 3 observations are +3, +3, and −3, then what is the mean squared error?

Answers

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean squared error (MSE)of a set of observations can be calculated using the formula :

(1/n)Σ(Actual values - predicted values)^2

Where n = number of observations

Steps :

Error values of each observation (difference between actual and predicted values) is squared.

Step 2:

The squared values are summed

Step 3:

The summation is the divided by the number of observations

The difference between the actual and predicted values is known as the ERROR.

(1/n)Σ(ERROR)^2

n = 3

Error = +3, +3, - 3

MSE = (1/3)Σ[(3)^2 + (3)^2 + (-3)^2]

MSE = (1/3) × [9 + 9 + 9]

MSE = (1/3) × 27

MSE = 9

In a zoo there are 6 orang-utans for every 3 baboons. There are 27 orang-utans and baboons altogether. How many are orang-utans?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay first we know that for every one baboon there is 2 orang-utans (6 / 3 = 2)

So, I like to play the guess and check:

Lets just use the numbers 12 orang-utans and 6 baboons. We know that those two don't equal 27, so thats not it.

Now we can have 18 orang-utans and 9 baboons. 18 + 9 = 27, which means there are 18 orang-utans.

Simplify 10 - [14 = (3 + 4) · 2]+3

Answers

Answer:

There is a typo near the equal sign.

There can be two different answers if we think that = sign as + or -.

First way: Making = as +

=> 10 - [14 + (3+4) x 2] +3

=> 10 - [14 + 7 x 2] + 3

=> 10 - [14 + 14] + 3

=> 10 - 28 + 3

=> 10 + 3 - 28

=> 13 - 28

=> -15

=> So, -15 is the answer if we consider "=" sign as "+" sign.

Second way: Making = as -

=> 10 - [14 - (3+4) x 2] + 3

=> 10 - [14 - 7 x 2] + 3

=> 10 - [14 - 14] + 3

=> 10 - 0 + 3

=> 10 + 3

=> 13

=> So, 13 is the answer if we consider "=" sign as "-" sign.

Nour drove from the Dead Sea up to Amman, and her altitude changed at a constant rate. When she began driving, her altitude was 400400400 meters below sea level. When she arrived in Amman 222 hours later, her altitude was 100010001000 meters above sea level. Let yyy represent Nour's altitude (in meters) relative to sea level after xxx hours.

Answers

Answer:

y = 700x - 400

Step-by-step explanation:

A negative number represents an altitude below sea level.

Beginning: -400

y = mx + b

y = mx - 400

In 2 hours the altitude was now 1000 m.

1000 m - (400 m) = 1400 m

The altitude went up 1400 m in 2 hours. The rate of change is

1400/2 m/h = 700 m/h

The rate of change is the slope.

2. State the null hypothesis:

3. State the alternative hypothesis:

4. Find the critical value:

5. Calculate the obtained statistic:

6. Make a decision:

7. What does your decision mean

Answers

Answer:

Since x= 12 (0.006461) does not fall in the critical region so we accept our null hypothesis and conclude that the coin is fair.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the probability of heads in a single toss of the coin. Then our null hypothesis that the coin is fair will be formulated as

H0 :p 0.5   against   Ha: p ≠ 0.5

The significance level is approximately 0.05

The test statistic to be used is number of heads x.

Critical Region: First we compute the probabilities associated with X the number of heads using the binomial distribution

Heads (x)        Probability (X=x)                        Cumulative     Decumulative

0                        1/16384 (1)             0.000061     0.000061

We use the cumulative and decumulative column as the critical region is composed of two portions of area ( probability) one in each tail of the distribution. If  alpha = 0.05 then alpha by 2 - 0.025 ( area in each tail).

We observe that P (X≤2) =   0.006461 > 0.025

and

P ( X≥12 ) = 0.006461 > 0.025

Therefore true significance level is

∝=  P (X≤0)+P ( X≥14 ) = 0.000061+0.000061= 0.000122

Hence critical region is (X≤0) and ( X≥14)

Computation x= 12

Since x= 12 (0.006461) does not fall in the critical region so we accept our null hypothesis and conclude that the coin is fair.

If the mean difference gets larger and sample standard deviation stays the same, what happens to effect size?

Answers

Answer:

The effect size of the sample gets larger

Step-by-step explanation:

The effect size of the sample gets larger when the mean difference gets larger and the sample standard deviation stays the same. because the Cohen's effect size is proportional to mean difference  and this can be proven below using the Cohen's formula

Cohen's effect size  = Mean difference / standard deviation

form the question standard deviation is constant while the mean difference gets larger, hence the effect size will get larger as well
