Answer:

120*2.75*60/5280

= 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering James takes 120 steps in a minute, with 60 minutes in an hour and a mile consisting of 5,280 feet, we can establish his walking pace. By multiplying his steps per minute by the distance of each step (120 * 2.75), we determine the distance he covers in one minute. This value is then multiplied by 60 to account for the total hour. Finally, the total distance is divided by the feet in a mile (5,280), which results in a speed of 3.75 miles per hour. Thus, the calculation becomes 120*2.75*60/5280

The perimeter of the norwegian flag is 190 inches. What are the dimensions of the flag?
zzz [4035]
<span>The flag's dimensions are 40 inches by 55 inches.

Reasoning<span>:
The perimeter equals the sum of all sides. Being rectangular, opposite sides have equal lengths. Thus, the equation is
y + 11/8 y + y + 11/8 y = 190.

Simplifying, we get
2y + 22/8 y = 190.

Expressing 22/8 as a mixed fraction results in
2y + 2 3/4 y = 190.

Combining terms: 4 3/4 y = 190.

Divide both sides by 4 3/4:
y = 190 ÷ 4 3/4.

Converting 4 3/4 to an improper fraction: y = 190 ÷ 19/4.

Dividing by a fraction means multiplying by its reciprocal:
y = 190 × 4/19 = 760/19 = 40.

Since y = 40, calculate 11/8 y = 11/8 × 40 = 440/8 = 55.</span></span>

tester [3938]

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 10

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 10

b) p_v =P(t_{17}

Given that the p-value is lower than the significance threshold in this situation, we have sufficient grounds to reject the null hypothesis.

c) p_v =P(t_{17}

In this case, since the p-value exceeds the significance threshold, we have adequate evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

d) p_v =P(t_{17}

Here again, with the p-value being less than the significance level, we can reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Provided data and references

\bar X represents the average of the samples

s denotes the standard deviation of the samples

n=18 indicates the number of samples

\mu_o =10 is the value we are examining

\alpha defines the significance level for the test.

t represents the specific statistic of interest

p_v indicates the p-value relevant to the test (the variable of concern)

Define the null and alternative hypotheses.

To assess if the true mean is at least 10 hours, we must set up a hypothesis:

Part a

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 10

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 10

If we consider the sample size being less than 30 and the population deviation unknown, it’s more appropriate to use a t-test to compare the actual mean with the reference value, calculated as:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)

Part b

In this scenario t=-2.3, \alpha=0.05

Initially, we need to calculate the degrees of freedom df=n-1=18-1=17

Since this is a left-tailed test, the p-value is determined by:

p_v =P(t_{17}

In this instance, with the p-value being less than the significance level, we have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Part c

For this situation t=-1.8, \alpha=0.01

We need to find the degrees of freedom df=n-1=18-1=17

For the left-tailed test, the p-value is given by:

p_v =P(t_{17}

In this case, since the p-value is above the significance level, we have enough grounds to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Part d

For this case t=-3.6, \alpha=0.05

Firstly, we find the degrees of freedom df=n-1=18-1=17

Since we are conducting a left-tailed test, the p-value is calculated as:

p_v =P(t_{17}

Here, with the p-value being lower than the significance threshold, we can reject the null hypothesis.

The area of the postcard is 24 square inches. What is the width b of the message (in inches)?
Leona [4187]
Area of a rectangle = length x width
For this postcard:
length = 4 in
width = (3+b) in
area = 24 in^2

Substitute into the area formula:
24 = 4 x (3+b)
24 = 12 + 4b
24 - 12 = 4b
12 = 4b
b = 3 in

Therefore:
the length of the postcard = 4 inch
the width of the postcard = b+3 = 3 + 3 = 6 inch

Which transformations can be used to carry ABCD onto itself? The point of rotation is (3, 2). Check all that apply.
Leona [4187]

Both A and B.

This is due to the fact that X=3 cleanly divides the rectangle into two equal halves, causing any reflection to resemble the original shape.

Additionally, any shape with two lines of symmetry, when rotated 180 degrees, will align with one of the axes of symmetry and appear the same as the original shape.
