A roller coaster at an amusement park rises to a height of 196 feet above the ground. So far, it has risen 36% of this height. To estimate the height the roller coaster has risen so far, Jake did the following. 1. Rounded 36% to 40%
2. Rounded 196 to 200
3. 10% of 200 is 20
4. 20 (4) = 80
5. 36% of 196 is about 80

However, Jake’s estimate was too high by almost 10 feet. Why was his estimate off by so much?

He made a computation error.

He rounded the percent up to 40% and the number up to 200.

He made a rounding error, and should have rounded 196 down to 100.

He should have rounded the percent down to 30% and the number down to 190.

Acompany manufactures large valves, packed in boxes. a shipment consists of 1500 valves packed in 75 boxes. each box has the outer dimensions 1.2 x 0.8 x 1.6 m and the inner dimensions 1.19 x 0.79 x 1.59 m. the boxes are loaded on a vehicle (truck + trailer). the available capacity in the vehicle combination is 140 m3. each valve has a volume of 0.06 m3. - calculate the load factor on the box level (%). - calculate the load factor on the vehicle level (%). - calculate the overall load factor (%).

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), the experimenter looks at cards that are hidden from the subject. each card contains either a star, a circle, a wave, a cross or a square.(five shapes) as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. when the esp study described above discovers a subject whose performance appears to be better than guessing, the study continues at greater length. the experimenter looks at many cards bearing one of five shapes (star, square, circle, wave, and cross) in an order determined by random numbers. the subject cannot see the experimenter as he looks at each card in turn, in order to avoid any possible nonverbal clues. the answers of a subject who does not have esp should be independent observations, each with probability 1/5 of success. we record 1000 attempts. which of the following assumptions must be met in order to solve this problem? it's reasonable to assume normality 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)%30 approximately normal 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)% 10 approximately normal srs it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 10,000 it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 1000
