The graph shows the altitude of a helicopter over time. A graph measuring altitude and time. A line runs through coordinates (0,

10,000) and (15, 4000) and shows a decrease in altitude as time increasesWhat is the slope of the line and what does it mean in this situation? The slope is –2000 . This means that the helicopter descends 2000 ft each minute. The slope is –400 . This means that the helicopter descends 400 ft each minute. The slope is 400. This means that the helicopter ascends 400 ft each minute. The slope is 2000. This means that the helicopter ascends 2000 ft each minute.

To determine the slope, subtract the y coordinates from each other and the x coordinates as well. That gives us: 10000 - 4000 over 0 - 15, which simplifies to 6000 over -15. When divided, it results in -400. So, the slope amounts to -400. I hope this aids you!:D

The slope can be calculated with the formula y2 - y1 over x2 - x1. Substituting in gives us: 4,000 - 10,000 which equals -6,000 over 15 - 0, resulting in a value of 15. When this is simplified, we have -6,000 divided by 15 which equals -400.

A 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of professional tennis players who earn more than 2 million dollars a ye
Svet_ta [12734]

Response:

e. 545

Detailed explanation:

In a survey sample containing n individuals, with a success probability of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, the ensuing confidence interval for proportions is established.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

Wherein

z denotes the z-score corresponding to a probability value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this scenario, we find:

The estimate averages the two bounds. Thus \pi = \frac{0.82+0.88}{2} = 0.85

95% confidence level

Consequently, z represents the z value corresponding to the p-value of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, hence Z = 1.96.

The lower boundary of this interval is:

L = \pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In this query, L = 0.82. Therefore

0.82 = 0.85 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.85*0.15}{n}}

1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.85*0.15}{n}} = 0.03

0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.85*0.15}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.85*0.15}}{0.03}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.85*0.15}}{0.03})^{2}

n = 544.23

Thus, the accurate response is:

Ship collisions in the Houston Ship Channel are rare. Suppose the number of collisions are Poisson distributed, with a mean of 1
Leona [12618]
c) Step-by-step breakdown: The collision rate is 1.2 incidents per 4 months, which can be expressed as 0.3 incidents monthly. Therefore, the Poisson distribution for the variable X representing monthly collisions is defined as P(X = x) =... for x ∈ N ∪ {0} = 0 otherwise. (1) Where X = 0 denotes no collisions during a 4-month timeframe, substituting gives P(X = 0) =... (2). For a 4-month period, P(No collision in 4 month period) =... (3). Two collisions in a 2-month span translate to 1 per month, thus P(X =1) =... (4). Over 2 months, P(2 collisions in a 2 month period) =... (5). One collision over a 6-month period equates to P(1 collision in 6 months period) =... (6). Consequently, P(1 collision in 6 month period) results in... (7). For no collisions in a 6-month period, P(No collision in 6 months period) =... (8). Finally, the probability of 1 or fewer collisions over six months is P(1 or fewer collision in 6 months period) = (8) + (7) = 0.0785 + 0.1653.

Suppose the coordinate of a is 0, ar = 5, and at =7. What are the possible coordinates of the midpoint of rt ?
Zina [12379]

Here, 'a' relates to 0.

There are two scenarios for 'r' and 't'.

Scenario 1.

Both are positioned on the same side to the right of 'a'.

In this case, 'r' would equal 5, and 't' would equal 7.

The midpoint between 'r' and 't' is \frac{5+7}{2} =6.

Scenario 2.

If both are found to the left of 'a'.

Then 'r' would equal -5, while 't' would equal -7.

The midpoint is \frac{-7-5}{2} =-6.

Scenario 3.

If 'r' is right of 'a' and 't' is left of 'a'.

Thus 'r' equals 5 and 't' equals -7.

The midpoint is \frac{-7+5}{2}=-1.

Scenario 4.

If 'r' is left of 'a' while 't' is right of 'a'.

In this case, 'r' corresponds to -5 and 't' corresponds to 7.

The midpoint is \frac{-5+7}{2}=1.

The potential midpoint coordinates for 'rt' are 6, -6, 1, and -1.

superstore and cheap store are two supermarkets that sell boxes of the same type of cereal each supermarket has a special offer
tester [12383]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cheapstore:

500p divided by 10 equals 50p, multiplied by 2 gives 100p or £1

£4 corresponds to 600g

Superstore:

600g divided by 10 results in 60g, which when multiplied by 3 yields 180g, added to 600g

£5 equals 780g

600 divided by 4 amounts to 150g for each pound

780 divided by 5 results in 156g for each pound

The box from the Superstore offers the best value

By selling a school blazer for Rs 1215, the shopkeeper earns a profit of 8%. Find
Svet_ta [12734]

Detailed explanation:

Thus,

100% plus 8% equals 108%

108% equals 1215

1% corresponds to 11.25

Therefore, 100% amounts to 1125 rs
