Homework (5)
18. GEOGRAPHY In the continental United States,
the ratio of states that border an ocean to states
that do not border an ocean is 7:9. How many
of the states border an ocean?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the ratio as

7x : 9x

If you add all the states that border an ocean and do not, you will get 48 states (because Alaska and Hawaii are not part of the continental US, as they do not touch the "main" part of the country)

So, we can write this equation.

7x + 9x = 48

Simplify.

16x = 48

Divide both sides by 16.

x = 4

Now, find how many states border an ocean. In our ratio, the number of states that border an ocean was 7x. Substitute x = 4 into 7x

7 * x = 7 * 4 = 28

The number of states that border an ocean is 28.

I hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!

How many copies of 1 twelfth are equivalent to 3 sixths? Help!

Answers

Answer:

6/12 is equal to 3/6 ( 6 twelfths is equal to 3 sixths )

Step-by-step explanation:  

multiply both sides of 3/6 by 2 to get the same denominator, doing that will get you 6/12

Answer:

6 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Convert 1 twelfth to an expression

1 twelfth is the same thing as 1/12

Step 2:  Convert 3 sixths to an expression

3 sixths is the same thing as 3/6

Step 3:  Get common denominators

The lowest common denominator between 1/12 and 3/6 is 12

[tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{(1 * 1)}{(12 * 1)}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{(3 * 2)}{(6*2)}[/tex] → [tex]\frac{6}{12}[/tex]

Step 4:  Find the amount of 1/12 there are in 6/12

In order to find out the copies, we need to add 1/12 x amount of times to get 6/12.  We find that x is going to be 6.  Therefore, there 6 copies.

[tex]\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{12} = \frac{6}{12}[/tex]

Answer:  6 copies

Harold and Maude plan to take a cruise together, but they live in separate cities. The cruise departs from Miami, and they each book a flight to arrive in Miami an hour before they need to be on the ship. Their travel planner explains that Harold's flight has an 80% chance of making it on time for him to get o the ship and that Maude's flight has a 90% chance of making it on time. Assume that the event of Harold making it on time is independent of the event of Maude making it on time. What is the probability that at least one of Harold and Maude will make it to the cruise

Answers

Answer:

98% probability that at least one of Harold and Maude will make it to the cruise

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent probabilities:

When two events are independent, the probability of the two events happening simultaneously is the multiplication of each probability.

Probability that none makes it to the cruise:

Harold's flight has an 80% chance of making it, so 100 - 80 = 20% probability of missing.

Maude's flight has a 90% chance of making it on time, so 100 - 90 = 10% probability of missing.

Both missing: 0.2*0.1 = 0.02.

2% probability of both missing.

Probability that at least one makes it to the cruise:

Either both miss, or at least one makes it. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 100%. So

2 + p = 100

p = 98%

98% probability that at least one of Harold and Maude will make it to the cruise

In a normal distribution, 68% of the data fall within how many standard
deviations of the mean?
A. Two standard deviations
B. One standard deviation
C. It cannot be determined from the given information.
D. Three standard deviations

Answers

B, my teacher just taught us this :)

In a normal distribution of data, 68% of the data fall within one standard deviations of the mean.

What do you mean by normally distributed data?

Normally distributed data is the distribution of probability which is symmetric about the mean.

The mean of the data is the average value of the given data.The standard deviation of the data is the half of the difference of the highest value and mean of the data set.

According to the empirical rule, also known as 68-95-99.7 rule, the percentage of values that lie within an interval with 68%, 95% and 99.7% of the values lies within one, two or three standard deviations of the mean of the distribution.

[tex]P(\mu - \sigma < X < \mu + \sigma) = 68\%\\P(\mu - 2\sigma < X < \mu + 2\sigma) = 95\%\\P(\mu - 3\sigma < X < \mu + 3\sigma) = 99.7\%[/tex]

Here the mean of distribution of X is [tex]\mu[/tex]  and standard deviation from mean of distribution of X is [tex]\sigma[/tex].

Thus, in a normal distribution of data, 68% of the data fall within one standard deviations of the mean.

The relationship between the quantities x and y is option B. The relationship between quantities is ×11.

What is Direct Variation?

Direct variations are defined as the functions of the form y = kx, where k is a constant.

Here when y increases, x increases and if y decreases, x also decreases.

Given values of x are 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Given values of y are 11, 22, 33 and 44.

We have to find the relationship between x and y.

Let y = f(x).

f(1) = 11, f(2) = 22, f(3) = 33 and f(4) = 44

Clearly we can see that,

f(x) = 11x, which is a direct variation.

When x = 1, f(1) = 1 × 11 = 11

When x = 2, f(2) = 2 × 11 = 22

When x = 3, f(3) = 3 × 11 = 33

When x = 4, f(4) = 4 × 11 = 44

So the relationship is y = x × 11

Hence the relationship between quantities is ×11.
