At 7:00 AM there were 14,000 gallons of water in Lance’s pool when he noticed there was a leak. After 6 hours there were only 5,

000 gallons of water remaining in his pool. Write an equation that describes the number of gallons of water as a function of the time the pool has been leaking.
y = -5,000x + 14,000

y = -1,500x + 14,000

y = -9,000x + 14,000


Is it possible for a vertical line to have a negative slope?

no

yes

A factory received a shipment of 38 sprockets, and the vendor who sold the items knows there are 5 sprockets in the shipment tha
tester [8842]

Answer:

a) 0.00019923%

b) 47.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To determine the likelihood that all sockets in the sample are defective, we can use the following approach:

The first socket is among a group that has 5 defective out of 38, leading to a probability of 5/38.

The second socket is then taken from a group of 4 defective out of 37, following the selection of the first defective socket, resulting in a probability of 4/37.

Extending this logic, the chance of having all 5 defective sockets is computed as: (5/38)*(4/37)*(3/36)*(2/35)*(1/34) = 0.0000019923 = 0.00019923%.

b) Using similar reasoning as in part a, the first socket has a probability of 33/38 of not being defective as it's chosen from a set where 33 sockets are functionally sound. The next socket has a proportion of 32/37, and this continues onward.

The overall probability calculates to (33/38)*(32/37)*(31/36)*(30/35)*(29/34) = 0.4728 = 47.28%.

Response:

Detailed explanation:

The final result is 3 /8/33.

step by step breakdown

Initially, we write:

x

=

After that, we will multiply each side by

Robert was able to travel 292.0 miles in 4.000 hours and used 38 liters of gasoline. What was robert's speed in feet per second?
zzz [9080]

Robert covered a distance of 292 miles.

He took 4 hours to complete this journey.

Next, let's convert miles to feet.

1 mile equals 5280 feet.

Thus, 292 miles in feet equals 292 * 5280 = 1541760 feet.

Now, converting 4 hours into seconds.

1 hour translates to 3600 seconds.

Therefore, 4 hours equals 3600 * 4 = 14400 seconds.

The question asks for speed in feet per second.

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Thus,

\frac{1541760}{14400}

is 107.067 feet per second.

tester [8842]
The test statistic (Z) is 2.5767, and the p-value of the test is 0.009975. The null hypothesis suggests that the smoking rate among students has not changed, while the alternative indicates otherwise. The z-statistic for the sampled proportion is computed, yielding z ≈ 2.5767. As we investigate whether the smoking percentage has shifted over the preceding five years, the two-tailed p-value is found to be 0.009975. This result is significant at a 99% confidence level, demonstrating substantial evidence that the percentage of smoking students has changed.
