An auto-parts store offers a fuel additive that claims to increase a vehicle’s gas mileage. The additive is poured into a vehicle’s gasoline tank after the tank is filled. To measure the claim, two methods to collect data are proposed.

Method A: 10 similar police cars owned by a city are selected. After the cars are filled with a fresh tank of gasoline, researchers randomly select 10 of the cars to receive the additive, while the other 10 do not receive the additive. The gas mileage for each car is recorded in miles per gallon.

Method B: 20 customers at an auto-parts store receive free coupons for the additive and are asked to use it with their next fresh tank of gasoline. The customers then report their gas mileage with the fuel additive.

Which method describes an experiment?

Method B is an experiment because every car receives the additive.
Method A is an experiment because the additive is used with a new tank of gasoline.
Both methods are experiments because the additive is used in a new tank of gas in both methods.
Method A is an experiment because random assignment determines which cars receive the additive and which cars do not.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Method A is an experiment because random assignment determines which cars receive the additive and which cars do not.

Hit brainliest if this was helpful :)

Answer 2

Method A is an experiment because random assignment determines which cars receive the additive and which cars do not.

What is experiment?

An experiment is a procedure carried out to support or refute a hypothesis, or determine the efficacy or likelihood of something previously untried. Experiments provide insight into cause-and-effect by demonstrating what outcome occurs when a particular factor is manipulated.

What is mileage?

Mileage tells us how many number of miles travelled or covered.

According to questions, an auto-parts store offers a fuel additive that claims to increase a vehicle’s gas mileage. The additive is poured into a vehicle’s gasoline tank after the tank is filled. To measure the claim, two methods to collect data are proposed.

In Method A: 10 similar police cars owned by a city are selected. After the cars are filled with a fresh tank of gasoline, researchers randomly select 10 of the cars to receive the additive, while the other 10 do not receive the additive. The gas mileage for each car is recorded in miles per gallon.

In Method B: 20 customers at an auto-parts store receive free coupons for the additive and are asked to use it with their next fresh tank of gasoline. The customers then report their gas mileage with the fuel additive.

Based on the questions, Method A is an experiment because random assignment determines which cars receive the additive and which cars do not. Method B does not report the mileage before fuel additive.

Hence, we can conclude that Method A is an experiment because random assignment determines which cars receive the additive and which cars do not.

9e +4= -5e + 14+ 13e
step by step pls

Answers

Answer:

e = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

9e +4= -5e + 14+ 13e

combine like terms on left side of the equation : -5e + 13e = 8e

9e + 4 = 8e + 14

subtract 8e from both sides : 9e - 8e = e and 8e - 8e cancels out

e + 4 = 14

subtract 4 from both sides : 4 - 4 cancels out and 14 - 4 = 10

we're left with e = 10

Answers

Answer:  3/5

This is equivalent to 0.6 in decimal form

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

Explanation:

To find the slope, divide the rise over run

rise = change in y = how far to move up or downrun = change in x = how far to move to the right

In this case, we have:

rise = 6run = 10

Therefore,

slope = rise/run = 6/10 = 3/5 = 0.6

The slope of the line that passes through (-3, -8) and (7, -2) will be 3/5.

What is the slope?

The slope is the ratio of rising or falling and running. The difference between the ordinate is called rise or fall and the difference between the abscissa is called run.

The slope of the line is given as,

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

From the graph, the points are (-3, -8) and (7, -2). Then the slope of the line is calculated as,

m = (- 8 + 2) / (- 3 - 7)

m = 6 / 10

m = 3/5

The slope of the line that passes through (-3, -8) and (7, -2) will be 3/5.

Write at least 4 key features of the graph shown below.

Answers

Answer:

There are a few key features of a graph; though I'm not exactly sure which ones are the '4 key features'

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few key features of a graph.

- (x and y) intercepts

- Domain

- Range

- Increasing/Decreasing

- Vertex

-Max/min

- is the graph a function?

I'm not exactly sure what the 4 main key features of a graph is; since there are many features of a graph.

But I'm guessing its the

-x and y intercept

-Max/min

-Domain

-Range

The x intercept is (-15,0)

y intercept is (0,-5)

I was never properly taught how to find the domain and range of a graph, and I can't really find much about the domain and range of graphs that have no clear end to either side (continuous line) so I'm sorry, I can't really help you on that.

It is a Saturday morning, and Jeremy has discovered he has a leak coming from the water heater in his attic. Since plumbers charge extra to come out on weekends, Jeremy is planning to use buckets to catch the dripping water. He places a bucket under the drip and steps outside to walk the dog. In 20 min, the bucket is 1/8 of the way full. What is the rate at which the water is leaking per hour? and what is the longest time he can be away from the house before the bucket will overflow?

You start by asking yourself or as I call it crossmultiply

if 20 min the bucket is 1/8 full what about 8/8 or a whole

Answer:

What is the rate at which the water is leaking per hour?

rate: [tex]\frac{1}{5} buckets = \frac{1}{5}/ \frac{1}{2} buckets/ hr\\ ----\\\frac{1}{2} hour = \frac{2}{5} buckets/ hr[/tex]

Write an equation that represents the relationship between the number of buckets filled, , in hours.

Marlee had a certain amount of money (x) in her bank
account. She deposited $60.00 from her grandmother
for her birthday. She then spent of the money in her account on rent that totaled $550. Which equation represents this situation?

Answers

Answer:

x-490=t

Step-by-step explanation:

Marlee has x money

She deposited $60 meaning adding $60 to the bank

So x+60

THen Marlee need to withdraw $550 from her bank to rent

So the equation is now

x+60-550

60-550 is -490

Thus:

x-490

(I will represent (t) as the money she has left for the equation)

Thus the equation is

x-490=t

The Precision Scientific Instrument Company manufactures thermometers that are supposed to give readings of OC at the freezing point of water. Tests on a large sample of these thermometers reveal that at the freezing point of water, some give readings below 0°C (denoted by negative numbers) and some give readings above 0°C (denoted by positive numbers). Assume that the mean reading is 0°C and the standard deviation of the readings is 1.00°C. Also assume that the frequency distribution of errors closely resembles the normal distribution. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. Find the temperature reading corresponding to the given information. Find Q3, the third quartile.
A) 0.53
B) 0.67
C) -1.3
D) 0.82

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the third quartile is of Q3 = 0.67, hence option B is correct.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

The mean is of 0ºC, hence [tex]\mu = 0[/tex].The standard deviation is of 1ºC, hence [tex]\sigma = 1[/tex].

The third quartile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, as [tex]100\frac{3}{4} = 75[/tex], hence X when Z = 0.67.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]0.67 = \frac{X - 0}{1}[/tex]

[tex]X = 0.67[/tex]
