Part Sophia's brother, Stanley, is cooking carrots for the family dinner. He needs to make less than twice as many servings of carrots as Sophia makes of mashed potatoes. If Sophia makes 10 servings of mashed potatoes, write an inequality for y, the amount of servings of carrots Stanley needs to make.

At wind speeds above 1000 centimeters per second (cm/sec), significant sand-moving events begin to occur. wind speeds below 1000 cm/sec deposit sand and wind speeds above 1000 cm/sec move sand to new locations. the cyclic nature of wind and moving sand determines the shape and location of large dunes. at a test site, the prevailing direction of the wind did not change noticeably. however, the velocity did change. fifty-nine wind speed readings gave an average velocity of x = 1075 cm/sec. based on long-term experience, σ can be assumed to be 245 cm/sec. (a) find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean wind speed at this site. (round your answers to the nearest whole number.) lower limit cm/sec upper limit cm/sec
