A faucet drips 2/5 gallon of water in 3 1/2 hours. What is the unit rate of water dripped per hour?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Unit rate = 4/35 of a gallon per hour

=============================================

Work Shown:

3 & 1/2 = 3 + 1/2

3 & 1/2 = 6/2 + 1/2

3 & 1/2 = (6+1)/2

3 & 1/2 = 7/2

The faucet drips 2/5 of a gallon in 7/2 hours

2/5 gallon : 7/2 hours

2*(2/5 gallon) : 2*(7/2 hours) ..... multiply both sides by 2

4/5 gallon : 7 hours

(1/7)*(4/5 gallon) : (1/7)*(7 hours) ... multiply both sides by 1/7

4/35 gallon : 1 hour

The unit rate is 4/35 of a gallon per hour.

"Per hour" means "every 1 hour".

Step-by-step explanation:

UCF is a major Metropolitan University located in Orlando Florida. UCF is advertising their bachelor in Economics with the statistic that the starting salary of a graduate with a bachelor in economics is $ 48,500 according to Payscale (2013-13). The Director of Institutional Research at UCF is interested in testing this information. She decides to conduct a survey of 50 randomly selected recent graduate economic students. The sample mean is $43,350 and the sample standard deviation is 15,000. Alpha = 0.01

Answers

Answer:

There is not enough evidence to suggest that mean starting salary of a graduate with a bachelor in economics is different from $48,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test whether the mean starting salary of a graduate with a bachelor in economics is $48,500.

The information provided are:

[tex]\bar x=\$43350\\s=\$15000\\n=50\\\alpha =0.01[/tex]

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: The mean starting salary of a graduate with a bachelor in economics is $48,500, i.e. μ = 48500.

Hₐ: The mean starting salary of a graduate with a bachelor in economics is different from $48,500, i.e. μ ≠ 48500.

As the population standard deviation is not known we will use a t-test for single mean.

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 [tex]t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{43350-48500}{15000/\sqrt{50}}\\\\=-2.42773\\\\\approx -2.43[/tex]

Thus, the test statistic value is -2.43.

Compute the p-value of the test as follows:

 [tex]p-value=2\times P(t_{49}>-2.43)=0.0188[/tex]

*Use a t-table.

Thus, the p-value of the test is 0.0188.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

p-value = 0.0188 > α = 0.01

The null hypothesis will not be rejected at 1% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that there is not enough evidence to suggest that mean starting salary of a graduate with a bachelor in economics is different from $48,500.

How do you do these questions and explanations please?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Standard error is SE = σ / √n.  As n increases, SE decreases.

2. Degrees of freedom is d = n − 1.  As n increases, d increases.

3. The t statistic is t = (x − μ) / SE.  As SE decreases, t increases.

4. As n increases, t* decreases and approaches z*.

5. As the t statistic increases, the P-value decreases.

6. Margin of error is t* times SE.  As n increases, MoE decreases.

7. The width of the confidence interval is 2 MoE.  As MoE decreases, the width of the confidence interval decreases.

What is the y-intercept of the line with equation 3y - 4x = 9?

Answers

Answer: (0, 3)

Step-by-step explanation: To find the y-intercept, we can plug a 0 in for x.

So we have 3y - 4(0) = 9.

This simplifies to 3y = 9.

Dividing both sides by 3, we find that y = 3.

So our y-intercept is 3 which we can write as the ordered pair (0, 3).

∠UVW + ∠XYZ = 90°

(x - 10) + (4x - 10) = 90

   x - 10 + 4x - 10 = 90

               5x - 20 = 90

m∠UVW = (22 - 10)° = 12°

Calculate the area of the trapezoid.
12 mm
5 mm
9 mm
________square millimeters

Answers

Answer:

52.5 square millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Trapezoid = (a+b/2)h

= (9+12/2)•5

=(21/2) • 5

= 10.5 • 5

= 52.5 square millimeters

hope this helps!

Answer:

52.5 mm^2 (square millimeters)

Step-by-step explanation:

Just split the figure into two sections to make a rectangle, and a right triangle (This whole figure can be thought of as a composite figure)

Once that is done, you will notice that the length and width of the rectangle is 9mm by 5mm, and the triangle is 3mm by 5mm (because 12mm - 9mm is 3 mm, and the height of the triangle is shared with the width of the rectangle).

The area of a triangle is 1/2(base×height) [just as a triangle is half of a rectangle], so the area of the rectangle is (length × width).

Therefore the 9mm by 5mm rectangle has an area of 9×5 mm = 45 mm^2, and the 3mm by 5mm triangle has an area of 1/2(5×3) = 15/2 = 7.5 mm^2.

Add both areas to find the total area:

45mm^2 + 7.5mm^2 = 52.5 mm^2.

____________________________

Or using the formula for the area of a trapezoid: A = h (b1 + b2) / 2

Where A is the area, b1 is the first base, b2 is the second base, and h is the height of the figure.

Given that our first base is 9, second base is 12, and our height is 5.

A = h ( b1 + b2 ) / 2 → A = 5 ( 9 + 12 ) / 2 → 5 ( 21 ) / 2 → 105 / 2 → 52.5

Then just put this quantity in mm^2 because it is the area of the figure in that unit.

→ 52.5 mm^2

2x^2+2=3x complete the square i need full explaination ASAP

Answers

Answer:

x = 3/4 + √7i/4

x = 3/4 - √7i/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² + 2 = 3x

Subtract 3x from both sides so it equals 0:

2x² - 3x + 2 = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

x² - 3/2x + 1 = 0

Subtract 1 from both sides:

x² - 3/2x = -1

Take -3/2 and multiply it by 1/2 then square it:

(-3/2 • 1/2)²

9/16

Add this to both sides:

x² - 3/2x + 9/16 = -1 + 9/16

Rewrite the perfect square on the left and add the terms on the right:

(x - 3/4)² = -7/16

Square root both sides to get rid of the square:

x - 3/4 = ± √-7/16

Simplify the radical:

x - 3/4 = ± √7i/4

Add 3/4 to both sides:

x = 3/4 ± √7i/4

Your two solutions are:

x = 3/4 + √7i/4

x = 3/4 - √7i/4

You can also convert to decimal if you need to (but I don’t recommend it):

x = 0.75 + 0.661438i

x = 0.75 - 0.661438i

Hope this helps!
