In a football tournament, the Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets. The Wasps scored 28 more points

than the Hornets. Together the three teams scored 184 points. Let x represent the number of points scored by the Hornets.

B = bees, w = wasps, x = hornets

3x - 9 + w + x = 184
w = x + 28
(3x - 9) + (x + 28) + x = 184...combine similar terms
5x + 19 = 184
5x = 184 - 19
5x = 165
x = 165/5
x = 33 <== points scored by Hornets

Response:

Bees = 3x-9

Wasps = x+28

Which equation illustrates this situation?

x+3x-9+x+28=184

Machines at a factory produce circular washers with a specified diameter. The quality control manager at the factory periodicall
zzz [12365]

Answer:

A Type I error could occur if the test shows that the proportion is above 90%, while in reality, the actual proportion is 90%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Machines in a factory produce circular washers that meet a specific diameter.

The quality control manager routinely assesses samples of washers to ensure that more than 90% conform to the specified diameter.

Let p represent the proportion of washers that meet the specified diameter

Thus, Null hypothesis: p = 90% H_0

Alternative Hypothesis: p > 90%H_A

Here, the null hypothesis posits that the proportion is exactly 90%. In contrast, the alternative hypothesis suggests that the proportion exceeds 90%.

Now, a Type I error indicates the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis while it is actually true or, in simple terms, the likelihood of incorrectly rejecting a valid hypothesis.

Thus, based on our question, a Type I error would declare that the test convincingly indicates the proportion is over 90%, while in truth, it remains 90%.

Julia can finish a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours. Katie can finish the same bike ride in 1.6 hours. How much faster does Julia
Svet_ta [12734]

Given that,speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Julia completes a 20-mile bike ride in 1.2 hours.

The distance Julia covers is 20 miles and her time taken is 1.2 hours.

Therefore, Julia's speed = \frac{20}{1.2} = 16.67 mph


Katie finishes the same 20-mile ride in 1.6 hours.

Katie’s distance is 20 miles and her time is 1.6 hours.

Hence, Katie's speed = \frac{20}{1.6} = 12.5 mph


To determine how much faster Julia rides compared to Katie, subtract Katie’s speed from Julia’s speed.

Thus, 16.67 mph minus 12.5 mph equals 4.17 mph, approximately 4.2 mph.

Consequently, Julia cycles 4.2 mph faster than Katie.

The equation f = v + at represents the final velocity of an object, f, with an initial velocity, v, and an acceleration rate, a,
PIT_PIT [12445]
<span>Starting with the equation f = v + at

Subtract v on both sides:

f - v = at

Divide both sides by a:

(f - v) / a = t

Swap the sides:

t = (f - v) / a

t = \dfrac{f - v}{a}</span>

We flip a fair coin five times. For every heads you pay me $1 and for every tails I pay you $1. Let X denote the my net winning
AnnZ [12381]
The probability mass function of X equals 0.03. To clarify:
Assuming the requirement for winning is one side as heads and the opposing side as tails, the likelihood of both outcomes is 1/2 or 0.5. Thus, we can construct a graph to calculate all probabilities related to achieving heads. In this context, X indicates the dollar amounts won during the coin flips, while the probability of heads reflects the likelihood of each outcome and the potential winnings. The chances of winning decrease as the winning amount rises.

You are in an airplane 5.7 miles above the ground. What is the measure of BD⌢
AnnZ [12381]

Result:

6.1°; 425.86 m.

Step-by-step breakdown:

The information provided states that the airplane is at an altitude of 5.7 miles above ground level, while the "radius of Earth is about 4000 miles." Thus,

θ = 2 × cos^-1 (a/ (a + b)), where a = 4000 miles, and b = 5.7 miles.

θ = 2 × cos^-1 (4000/ (4000 + 5.7)) = 6.1°.

To calculate the distance in meters:

Change in distance = 6.1° /360° × 2π × 4000 miles = 425.86 meters.

Consequently, BD⌢ measures at 6.1° and the distance corresponding to this section of Earth is 425.86 meters.
