Amap of a forest uses a scale of 1 inch = 15 miles. the dimensions of the map are 8 inches by 14.5 inches. what is the actual area of the forest? a) 116 square miles b) 1740 square miles c) 5062.5 square miles d) 26100 square miles

The dimension from 8 inches to actual size is 8 * 15 = 120. 14.5 inches to actual size is 14.5 * 15 = 217.5.

Then, you multiply 120 to 217.5 to get 26100 square miles.

The answer is D.

8121 because

130,000 divided by 16 is 8121

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
