Answer:

The function that illustrates the scenario is y = 70x, indicating that she can type 3,430 words in 49 minutes.

Stepwise breakdown:

Data provided:

Words typed by Mrs. Garcia each minute = 70

Words typed in 2 minutes = 140

Words typed in 3 minutes = 210

Words typed in 4 minutes = 280

Mrs. Garcia's typing speed is \frac{140-70}{2-1}=70\:words/minutes

Therefore, the function representing the total words typed in x minutes is described as follows:

y = 70 × x

y = 70x

To calculate the words typed in 49 minutes, substitute x = 49 in the equation.

y = 70 × 49

y = 3430

Thus, The function that represents the situation is y = 70x, and she is capable of typing 3,430 words in 49 minutes.

Y=70x
If she maintains a steady typing speed for 49 minutes, she will produce 3,430 words.

Response:

0.0000

Unusual

To explain step-by-step:

A tobacco company asserts that the nicotine content in its cigarettes behaves as a random variable with a mean of 2.2 mg and a standard deviation of.3 mg.

This means the population parameters are

\mu =2.2 \\s = 0.3

The likelihood that the sample average would equal or exceed 3.1

=P(X\geq 3.1)\\=P(Z\geq \frac{3.1-2.2}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{100} } } )\\=P(Z\geq 30)\\

equals 0.0000

There were 2.605 people at the basketball game. A reporter rounded this number to the nearest hundred from a newspaper article.
Svet_ta [12734]
Rounded to the nearest hundred, 2605 becomes 2600. If it had been 2650 or more, it would have rounded to 2700.

If the roads leading to an arena can together handle 3,500 vehicles/hour of arena-only traffic, at what time should the roads be
Svet_ta [12734]
The given road capacity is 3,500 vehicles per hour, and the expected number of vehicles arriving is 14,000. To calculate the time required for these vehicles to access the arena:
14,000 vehicles divided by 3,500 vehicles per hour equals 4 hours.

If the event is scheduled to commence at 7 p.m., the roads should close at: 7 p.m. minus 4 hours, which results in 3 p.m.
