A mail carrier can deliver mail to 36 houses in 30 minutes. Mark wants to determine how many houses the carrier can deliver mail to in 7.5 minutes at this rate. He thinks that to find the answer, he should do the following.
1. First divide 36 houses by 30 minutes to find a unit rate of 1.2 houses per minute.
2. Then multiply 1.2 houses per minute by 7.5 minutes to get 9 houses.
Which statement is correct?
-Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute. The carrier can only deliver to a whole number of houses.
-Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes. The carrier can only deliver mail for a whole number of minutes.
-Mark’s method is correct, because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.
-Mark’s method is correct, because it is possible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes; 7.5 represents the unit rate of 7.5 minutes per house.
Answers
The correct answer is C. Mark’s method is correct because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.
Explanation:
To begin Mark should determine the rate of delivery (number of houses the carrier can deliver in 1 minute). This can be found by dividing the houses by the minutes (36 / 30 = 1.2 houses per minute). This means the 1.2 rate found by Mark is correct; also, in this case, it is important to clarify, the carrier will not deliver to 1.2 houses at the same time, but this is the delivery rate or number used to understand the relationship between the number of houses, and the time.
Moreover, you can use this rate, and multiply it by 7.5 and this will show you how many houses the carrier can deliver in this time (7.5 (minutes) x 1.2 (delivery rate) = 9 houses). Thus, the method is correct, and in it, 1.2 represents the unit rate, this is why even when it is not possible to deliver to 1.2 houses all the process is correct.

An ethologist is interested in how long it takes a certain species of water shrew to catch its prey. He only has access to a sample of 100 shrews. On multiple occasions each day he lets a dragonfly loose inside the cage of the shrews and times how long it takes until the shrews catch the dragonfly. After months of research the ethologist concludes 1) that the mean prey catching time was 30 seconds, 2) the standard deviation was 5.5 seconds and 3) that the scores he has collected are normally distributed. What is the percentage of shrews that: a) catch a dragonfly in less than 18 seconds; b) catch a dragonfly in between 22 and 45 seconds; c) take longer than 45 seconds to catch a dragonfly? d) take less than 30 seconds to catch its prey;
Answers
Answer:
a) 1.46%.
b) 92.33%.
c) 0.32%.
d) 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 30, \sigma = 5.5[/tex]
a) catch a dragonfly in less than 18 seconds;
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 18. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{18 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.18[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.18[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0146
So the percentage of shrews is 1.46%.
b) catch a dragonfly in between 22 and 45 seconds;
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 45 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 22.
X = 45
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{45 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.73[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.73[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9968
X = 22
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{22 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.45[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.45[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0735
0.9968 - 0.0735 = 0.9233
So the answer is 92.33%.
c) take longer than 45 seconds to catch a dragonfly?
From b), when X = 45, Z = 2.73 has a pvalue of 0.9968
1 - 0.9968 = 0.0032
So the answer for this item is 0.32%.
d) take less than 30 seconds to catch its prey;
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 30.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{30 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5
So the answer for d) is 50%.

O y=-4x + 5
y = 4x-5
2y = 8x - 10
-2y = -8x - 10
Answers
Answer:
[tex]4x -y = 5[/tex]
And if we rewrite this expression we got:
[tex] y= 4x -5[/tex]
If the system have just one solution then we need the slope different and for this reason we can discard the options:
y = 4x-5
-2y = -8x - 10 equivalent to y =4x+5
2y = 8x - 10 equivalent to y = 4x -5
And then the correct answer would be:
y=-4x + 5

[tex] z = \frac{0.11-0.14}{0.0139} = -2.156[/tex]
And we can use the normal standard distribution table and we got:
[tex] P(Z<-2.156) =0.0155[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we know the following info given:
[tex] p =0.14[/tex] represent the population proportion
[tex] n = 622[/tex] represent the sample size selected
We want to find the following proportion:
[tex] P(\hat p <0.11)[/tex]
For this case we can use the normal approximation since we have the following conditions:
i) np = 622*0.14 = 87.08>10
ii) n(1-p) = 622*(1-0.14) =534.92>10
The distribution for the sample proportion would be given by:
[tex] \hat p \sim N (p ,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}) [/tex]
The mean is given by:
[tex] \mu_{\hat p}= 0.14[/tex]
And the deviation:
[tex]\sigma_{\hat p}= \sqrt{\frac{0.14*(1-0.14)}{622}}= 0.0139[/tex]
We can use the z score formula given by:
[tex] z=\frac{\hat p -\mu_{\hat p}}{\sigma_{\hat p}}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z = \frac{0.11-0.14}{0.0139} = -2.156[/tex]
And we can use the normal standard distribution table and we got:
[tex] P(Z<-2.156) =0.0155[/tex]

give me a lecture so i can try to do it in the future please
Answers
Answer:
u=6
Step-by-step explanation:
One rule in algebra is what you do to one side, you do it to other side. So if you multiply a number in one side, multiply the same number in other side. Here in this question, you are trying to find the value of the variable u. Variable is called so because the value of it varies depending on different question. Here u is going to be a constant number which when multipled by 3 and then subtracted by 3 equals 15.
So first step is we try to get constants on one side. So we add 3 on both sides to get rid of 3 on left.
3u - 3 + 3= 15+3
3u= 18
Now we divide by 3 on both sides to get u by itself.
3u/3 = 18/3
u= 6

Answer:
x = 3.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
By the theorem of intersecting secants,
"If two secants are drawn from a point outside the circle, product of the lengths of the secant segment and its external segment are equal."
3(3 + y) = 2(2 + 6 + 3)
9 + 3y = 2 × 11
3y = 22 - 9
3y = 13
y = [tex]\frac{13}{3}[/tex] cm = 4.33 cm
Now we will apply theorem of intersecting chords to determine the value of x.
" When two chords intersect each other in a circle, product of their segments are equal"
[tex]x\times 5=6\times 3[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{18}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x=3.6[/tex] cm
Therefore, x = 3.6 cm and y = 4.33 cm

Answers
Answer:
a) 56.82
b) 64
c) there is no mode
d) 57
e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing is to organize the data from least to greatest:
15 24 29 38 41 64 72 74 76 93 99
a) the mean would be the average of the data, thus:
m = (15 + 24 + 29 + 38 + 41 + 64 + 72 + 74 + 76 + 93 + 99) / 11
m = 56.82
b) the median is the data of half, when the data is organized, in this case the value of half would be the sixth data that is 64.
c) the mode is the value that is most repeated, therefore as none is repeated there is no mode.
d) the midrange is the average between the minimum value and the maximum value:
mr = (15 + 99) / 2
mr = 57
e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless

One study looked at the average number of minutes per day that people spend standing or walking. Among mildly obese people, minutes of activity varied according to the N(373, 61) distribution. Minutes of activity for lean people had the N(525, 104) distribution. Within what limits do the active minutes for 95% of the people in each group fall
Answers
Answer:
Among mildly obese people, 95% of the people have between 251 and 495 minutes of activity per day.
Among lean people, 95% of the people have between 317 and 733 minutes of activity per day.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
Within what limits do the active minutes for 95% of the people in each group fall
By the Empirical Rule, within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Mildly obese:
Mean = 373, standard deviation = 61.
373 - 2*61 = 251 minutes
373 + 2*61 = 495 minutes
Among mildly obese people, 95% of the people have between 251 and 495 minutes of activity per day.
Lean people:
Mean = 525, standard deviation = 104
525 - 2*104 = 317 minutes
525 + 2*104 = 733 minutes
Among lean people, 95% of the people have between 317 and 733 minutes of activity per day.

The current version of the SAT includes three parts: reading comprehension, mathematics, and writing. A perfect combined score for all three parts is 2400. A sample of SAT scores for the combined three-part SAT are as follows:
1665 1275 1650 1590 1475 1490
1525 2135 1560 1880 1680 1560

b. Comment on the shape of the distribution.
c. What other observations can be made about the SAT scores based on the tabular and graphical summaries?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The sample shows the scores for the combined three-part SAT.
Raw data in first attachment.
a.
To arrange the data in a frequency table using class intervals you have to determine the number of intervals you want to use and calculate their width. In this case, the width is given and so is the lower limit of the first interval, you calculate the successive limits by adding the width. The lower limit of the next interval will be the upper limit of the previous one:
1) 800 + 200= 100
First interval [800; 1000)
2) 1000 + 200
Second interval
[1000; 1200)
And so on until you reach the maximum value of the data set,
[1200; 1400)
[1400; 1600)
[1600; 1800)
[1800; 2000)
[2000; 2200)
Then you have to order the data from least to greatest and count how many observations correspond to each value, this way you'll determine the observed frequency for each interval.
Table and histogram in second attachment.
b.
As you can see in the histogram, this distribution is symmetrical centered in the interval [1400; 1600) and there are no outliers observed.
c.
Values around 1400-1600 are the most common ones while scores around 800-1000 or 2000-2200 are more uncommon, in this sample it seems the probability to obtain a perfect score for the combined three-part SAT is extremely low.
I hope you have a nice day!

A researcher reports that the farther college students are from their parents, the more often they communicate with their parents (either by phone or by e-mail). Is this an example of a positive correlation or a negative correlation?
Answers
Answer:
Positive correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
A positive correlation exists between two variables, when both variables tend to move along the same direction. In order words, when one particular variable increases, there is also an increase in the other variable.
The case stated above is an example of positive correlation, because, the farther the students are from their parents, the more often they communicate with them. As distance increases, so does the number of, perhaps, phone calls increases as well.
Answer:
Positive correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
A positive correlation occurs whereby in a relationship between two variables, both variable move in the same direction meaning as one increases, the other also increases.
In this study, an increase in distance enforces an increase in communication with the parents.

In order to calculate the annual interest tax shield to Salinas Corp if it goes through with the debt issuance we would have to calculate the following formula:
Annual Interest tax shield = Interest * tax
Interest = debt *rate of interest
Interest=$20 million * 0.07
Interest= $ 1.40 million
tax= 40%
Therefore, Annual Interest tax shield =$1.40 million * 0.40
Annual Interest tax shield = $560,000
The annual interest tax shield to Salinas Corp would be of $560,000
Which equation describes a relationship that is directly proportional?
(A) y = 9
(B) y = 1/5
(C) y = 3x
(D) y = x + 4
Answers
Answer:
(C) y = 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Directly proportional relation is one in which the value of x and y gets increases or decreased in same proportion.
example of such relation can be y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality which depicts by how much value of y will change in response to change of x.
_______________________________________________
now in the option
A and B
y= 9 , y =1/5
value of y is constant and does not depend on other variable. it value will remain same.
for y = x+4
value of y increases with x but it does not increase proportionally.
let see an example for x =1 , y = 1+4 = 5
x =2 , y = 2+4 = 6
(1,5) and (2,6) are not proportionally changing also this equation is not of form y = kx
thus, it is incorrect option.
_______________________________
(C) y = 3x
here equation is form y =kx . in place of k there is 3
let see an example for x =1 , y = 3*1 = 3
x =2 , y = 3*2 = 6
(1,3) and (2,6) are proportionally changing (1/3 = 2/6) also this equation is of form y = kx
thus, it is correct option.
