Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4500

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as your number isn't less than 500, it will always round up.

Answer 2

The required least weight of the elephant is 4500 pounds.

Given that,
When rounded to the nearest thousand an elephant weight is 5,000 pounds. What is the least amount the elephant could weigh is to be determined.


What is simplification?

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function or expression to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.


What is rounding of values?

The rounding of values is superseding a number with an inexact value that has a more ephemeral, more uncomplicated, or more direct representation.

Here, in the question, the rounded value of the elephant is given which is 5000 pounds, the least value that can be round to the nearest hundred is 4500.


Thus, the required least weight of the elephant is 4500 pounds.

What is the purpose of a pilot​ sample?

a. To help clarify how the sampling process will be performed.
b. To provide an idea of what the population standard deviation might be.
c. To save time and money instead of having to carry out a full sampling plan.
d. To provide a better idea of what the population mean will be.

Answers

Answer:

b. To provide an idea of what the population standard deviation might be

Step-by-step explanation:

Pilot sample can be regarded as the

small scale preliminary experiment whereby a smaller size of samples which is smaller compare to expected size is taken population of interest which gives the estimate for the population standard deviation.

The population standard mean is a parameter and it's been calculated from every entity of the population and

can be calculated using below formula

σ =√Σ (xi -μ)^2 /N

Where N= size of the population

σ= population standard mean

μ= population mean

Xi=each sample from the population

After 7 hours of driving. Chad had gone 364 miles. What was his average speed? Explain how you got your answer.

Answers

Answer:

52 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance driven = 364 miles

Total time taken = 7 hours

Required:

Average speed of Chad

SOLUTION:

Average speed is the number of miles covered per hour.

Thus:

Average speed = distance covered / time taken to cover the distance

Average speed = [tex] \frac{364}{7} = 52 mph [/tex].

Chad's average speed is 52 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

A survey that asks readers to return the survey would result in voluntary-response bias

What is voluntary response bias?

When the response to a survey by a reader is not influenced by the author or the questioner of the survey the response sent by the reader is going to be a voluntary response.

In a voluntary response, the response is void of external influence therefore the reader gives his/her honest opinion without the external/Questioner's bias

Allowing your sample to self-select skews your data and prevents you from getting accurate results that are representative of your entire population, which is what is meant by voluntary response bias.

Hence we can conclude that a survey that asks readers to return the survey would result in voluntary response bias.

250 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1)"rise over run" = 1.5/18 = 3/36 = 1/12 for the 1st section to the landing

2)slope is the change in height, the vertical change, divided by the change in horizontal distance

3)2nd section has slope 1/18 and covers 9 feet. That means it rises 1/2 foot

4)slope = 1/18 = (1/2)/9  

5)the door is 2 feet higher than the ground level,  1.5 + .5 = 2 feet change vertically

Luke measured caterpillars for a science project. He believes that caterpillar A is longer than caterpillar B because it has more digits after the decimal point. Do you agree or disagree Luke's thinking. Explain your reasoning.

Caterpillar A=4.125 cm
Caterpillar B=4.03
Caterpillar C=4.23

Answers

Answer: disagree

Step-by-step explanation:

Caterpillar A is longer, but not because of the decimal places. It is longer because of the place value.

Answer:

Disagreed

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you must remember that when dealing with finding the greater decimals you have to look at which have the greater place values in this case...

[tex]CA=4.125[/tex]

[tex]CB=4.03[/tex]

[tex]CC = 4.23[/tex]

Caterpillars 1 place value is already greater then caterpillar B's place value of 0, so it doesn't really matter how many more numbers to add after 1 and 0 because these two place values are already different 1 > 0

Meaning that "although Caterpillar A is greater then Caterpillar B, it is not because it has more digits simply because one is greater then zero." You can prove this by seeing that Caterpillar C is greater then Caterpillar A because two is greater then one.

[tex]4.125 > 4.03[/tex]

[tex]4.125 < 4.23[/tex]

A relation contains the points (negative2, 4), (negative1,1), (0,0), (1,1), and (2,4). Which statement accurately describes this relation?

Answers

Answer:

We have the points:

(-2,4), (-1, 1), (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 4)

First, we can see a symmetry around the point (0, 0), then this is an even function. Where an even function is a function f(x) such that:

f(x) = f(-x)

And in this case we have:

f(-2) = 4 = f(2)

f(-1) = 1 = f(1)

Now, we can also assume that this is a quadratic function (or it behaves like a quadratic function near the range [-2, 2]).

Such that:

f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x + c

Now let's use the known points to find our equation, we start with (0, 0)

f(0) = 0 = a*0^2 + b*0 + c

then c = 0.

f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x

Now let's use the points (1, 1) and (-1, 1)

f(1) = a*1^2 + b*1 = 1 = a*(-1)^2 + b*-1

       a + b = a - b

           +b = -b

           2*b = 0

Then we must have b = 0

f(x) = a*x^2

And now we can use the point (2, 4)

f(2) = 4 = a*2^2 = a*4

Then  a = 1.

Our function is f(x) = 1*x^2

Fred walked 20 miles in 8 days. If he continues walking at this rate, how many miles will he walk in 4 weeks? Be sure to set up a proportion to help you solve.

Answers

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the constant rate divided 20 miles by 8 days.

20 ÷ 8 = 2.5

Then, we know that in one week there are seven days so we multiply 2.5 x 7

2.5 x 7 = 17.5

Lastly, multiply 17.5 times 4

17.5 x 4 = 70

Similarly, AD || BC leads to angle DBC = angle BDA. They are also alternate interior angles and they are marked in green in the diagram below.

So far we have two pairs of congruent angles.

The pair of congruent sides is BD = BD by the reflexive property. Any segment is congruent to itself.

So we can use ASA to prove the triangles congruent. Note the segment BD is between the angles mentioned.
