Answer:
a) He will take 76 minutes in the triathlon
Step-by-step explanation:
He runs 1/5 of a mile in 1/20 f hour then, by simple inspection
1/5 ⇒ 1/20 then 1/5 miles* 10 = 2 miles
1/20*hours*10 = 1/10 hours
10/10 of an hour is 60 minutes
1/10 of an hour is 6 minutes
swimming
1/3 of a mile in 1/9 of hours then
1/3mile *6 = 2 miles
1/9 of an hour * 6 = 6/9 hours or 2/3 of an hour
3/3 of an hour is 1 hour = 60 minutes
2/3 of an hour is = 40 minutes
In bike
4 miles in 1/4 hour then
4 miles *2 = 8 miles
1/4 hour* 2 = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes
Then he will do the triathlon in:
6 minutes running
40 minutes swimming
30 minutes in bike
Total 76 minutes
explain why the quadratic relation y=2x^2+3x+5 would have no zeros
Complete the square to rewrite the quadratic:
2 x² + 3 x + 5 = 2 (x² + 3/2 x) + 5
... = 2 (x² + 3/2 x + 9/16 - 9/16) + 5
... = 2 (x² + 3/2 x + (3/4)²) + 5 - 9/8
... = 2 (x + 3/4)² + 31/8
Any real number squared becomes non-negative, so the quadratic expression has a minimum value of 31/8, which is greater than 0, and so there are no (real) x for which y = 0.
Working simultaneously, eight pumps fill in a pool in 32 hours. All pumps work at the same pace. If only half of the pumps are working, in how many hours will the pool be filled in?
Answer:
64 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are only half of the pumps that are working the time will double. 32x2 is 64
Answer: 16 hours
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1: Split 8 in half because we are using half the amount of pumps which is 4. Now we know the amount of pumps being used.
Step 2: Next we find the unit rate by dividing 32 and 8 to get 4
Step 3: Lastly we multiply 4x4 because 4 is the amount of pumps being used and the other 4 is the unit rate. Once we multiply we get 16 which is the answer: 16 hours
A single card is drawn from a standard deck. Find the probability of the following event. (Enter your probability as a fraction.) Drawing a black card or a face card
Answer:
8/13
Step-by-step explanation:
In a standard deck there are 52 cards. Let A denote the event of drawing a black card and B denote the event of drawing face card. We have to find P(A or B) or P(A∪B).
P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)
There are 26 black cards in a standard deck so,
P(A)=26/52.
There are 12 face cards in a standard deck so,
P(B)=12/52.
There are 6 cards that are black face cards.
P(A∩B)=6/52.
P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)
P(A∪B)=26/52+12/52-6/52
P(A∪B)=38/52-6/52
P(A∪B)=32/52
P(A∪B)=8/13
Thus, probability of drawing a black card or a face card is 8/13.

Suppose that minor errors occur on a computer in a space station, which will require re-calculation. Assume the occurrence of errors follows a Poisson process with a rate of 1/2 per hour. (a) Find the probability that no errors occur during a day. (b) Suppose that the system cannot correct more than 25 minor errors in a day, in which case a critical error will arise. What is the probability that a critical error occurs since the start of a day? Keep up to the 6th decimal place in your answer. (c) Suppose the error correction protocols reset themselves so long as there are no more than five minor errors occurring within a 2 hour window. The system just started up and an error occurred. What is the probability the next reset will occur within 2 hours?
Answer:
a
[tex] P(X = 0) = 0.6065 [/tex]
b
[tex]P(x < 25 ) = 1.18 *10^{-33} [/tex]
c
[tex] P(x \le 5 ) = 0.9994 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The rate is [tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{2}\ hr^{-1}[/tex] = 0.5 / hr
Generally Poisson distribution formula is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{(\lambda t) ^x e^{-\lambda t }}{x!}[/tex]
Generally the probability that no error occurred during a day is mathematically represented as
Here t = 1 hour according to question a
So
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{\lambda^x e^{-\lambda}}{x!}[/tex]
Hence
[tex][tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{\frac{1}{2} ^0 e^{-\frac{1}{2}}}{0!}[/tex]
=> [tex] P(X = 0) = 0.6065 [/tex]
Generally the probability that a critical error occurs since the start of a day is mathematically represented as
Here t = 1 hour according to question a
So
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{\lambda^x e^{-\lambda}}{x!}[/tex]
Hence
[tex]P(x \ge 25 ) = 1 - P(x < 25 )[/tex]
Here
[tex]P(x < 25 ) = \sum_{x=0}^{24} \frac{e^{-\lambda} * \lambda^{x}}{x!}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(x < 25 ) = \frac{e^{-0.5} *0.5^{0}}{0!} + \cdots + \frac{e^{-0.5} *0.5^{24}}{24!}[/tex]
[tex]P(x < 25 ) = 0.6065 + \cdots + \frac{e^{-0.5} *0.5^{24}}{6.204484 * 10^{23}}[/tex]
[tex]P(x < 25 ) = 0.6065 + \cdots + 6.0*10^{-32}[/tex]
[tex]P(x < 25 ) = 1.18 *10^{-33} [/tex]
Considering question c
Here t = 2
Gnerally given that the system just started up and an error occurred the probability the next reset will occur within 2 hours
[tex]P(x \le 5 ) = \sum_{n=0}^{5} \frac{(\lambda t) ^x e^{-\lambda t }}{x!}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(x \le 5 ) = \frac{(0.5 * 2) ^ 0 e^{- 0.5 * 2 }}{0!} + \cdots + \frac{(0.5 * 2) ^ 5 e^{- 0.5 * 2 }}{5!}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(x \le 5 ) = \frac{1* 2.7183 }{1 } + \cdots + \frac{1 *2.7183 }{120}[/tex]
=> [tex]P(x \le 5 ) = 2.7183 + \cdots + 0.0226525[/tex]
[tex] P(x \le 5 ) = 0.9994 [/tex]

C. Interpret the values obtained in part (b).
C(x) = 1000 + 0.1x, 0 ≤ x ≤ 50000 ≤ x ≤ 5000, a = 2000
Answer:
a)Average cost function =[tex]\bar{C(x)}=\frac{1000+0.1x}{x}[/tex]
Marginal cost function =[tex]C'x=0.1[/tex]
b) [tex]\bar{C(2000)}=0.6[/tex]
[tex]C'(2000)=0.1[/tex]
c)[tex]\bar{C(2000)}=0.6[/tex] is the average cost to produce first 2000 items
C'(2000)=0.1 is the marginal cost to produce 2001 th item
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost function: [tex]C(x) = 1000 + 0.1x[/tex]
a)Find the average cost and marginal cost functions.
Average cost function =[tex]\bar{C(x)}=\frac{C(x)}{x}[/tex]
Average cost function =[tex]\bar{C(x)}=\frac{1000+0.1x}{x}[/tex]
Marginal cost function =[tex]C'x=0.1[/tex]
b) Determine the average and marginal cost when x = a.
a = 2000
Average cost function =[tex]\bar{C(x)}=\frac{1000+0.1x}{x}=\frac{1000+0.1a}{a}=\frac{1000+0.1(2000)}{2000}=0.6[/tex]
So, [tex]\bar{C(2000)}=0.6[/tex]
Marginal cost function =[tex]C'(2000)=0.1[/tex]
c)Interpret the values obtained in part (b).
[tex]\bar{C(2000)}=0.6[/tex] is the average cost to produce first 2000 items
C'(2000)=0.1 is the marginal cost to produce 2001 th item
In a population of subjects who died from lung cancer following exposure to asbestos, it was found that the mean number of years elapsing between exposure and death was 25. The standard deviation was 7 years. Consider the sampling distribution of sample means based on samples of size 35 drawn from this population.
Required:
What will be the standard deviation of the sampling distribution?
Answer:
The value is [tex]\sigma _x = 1.1832[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 25[/tex]
The population standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 7[/tex]
The sample size is n = 35
Generally the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sigma _x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma _x = \frac{7}{\sqrt{35} }[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma _x = 1.1832[/tex]

You just got off the Haunted Mansion ride and the next ride you want to go
on is Splash Mountain. You have a fast pass that requires you to arrive at
Splash Mountain in 7 3⁄4 minutes. Splash Mountain is 1 3/5 miles away. You are able to cover 2/7 of a mile every minute. Can you make it to Splash Mountain?
Answer:
You can make it to Splash Mountain
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
The distance you need to cover to Splash Mountain is 1 3/5 miles, and the time you have to arrive there is in 7 3/4 minutes.
Also, from the question,
You are able to cover 2/7 of a mile every minute, that is
Your speed is 2/7 mile per minute
To determine if you can make it to Splash Mountain, we will determine the distance you can cover, traveling at this speed of 2/7 mile per minute for 7 3/4 minutes. If the distance you can cover is more than 1 3/5 miles, then you can make it; but if the distance you can cover is less than 1 3/5 miles, then you cannot make it.
From
Speed = Distance / Time
Distance = Speed × Time
Speed = 2/7 mile/minute
Time = 7 3/4 minutes = 31/4 minutes
∴Distance = 2/7 × 31/4
Distance = 31/14 miles = 2 3/14 miles
The distance you can cover traveling 2/7 of a mile every minute for 7 3/4 minutes is 2 3/14 miles, since this is more than 1 3/5 miles, then you can make it to Splash Mountain.
Hence, you can make it to Splash Mountain.

By how much did Polly's account change after her transactions? B Marcus sold a cat for $9 and then bought a plant for $4. By how much did Marcus's account changed after his transactions? C Virginia sold her pottery for $5 and then sold a hat for $2. By how much did Virginia's account change after her transactions? D Amir bought a VCR for $8 and then resold it for $9. By how much did Amir's account change after his transactions?
Answer: A.) Polly bought a cracker for $4 and then bought a parrot for $3. By how much did Polly's account change after her transactions?
Step-by-step explanation:
Word problem which can be modeled by the addition of two negative numbers :
A.) Polly bought a cracker for $4 and then bought a parrot for $3. By how much did Polly's account change after her transactions
Amount spent on cracker = - $4
Amount spent on carrot = - $3
Change in account = - 4 + (-3) = - $7
B.) Marcus sold a cat for $9 and then bought a plant for $4. By how much did Marcus's account changed after his transactions?
Amount received from sale of cat = $9
Amount spent on plant = - $4
Change in account = 9 + (-4) = $5
C.) Virginia sold her pottery for $5 and then sold a hat for $2. By how much did Virginia's account change after her transactions?
Amount received from sale of pottery = $9
Amount received from sale of hat = $2
Change in account = 9 + 2 = $11
D.) Amir bought a VCR for $8 and then resold it for $9. By how much did Amir's account change after his transactions?
Amount spent on VCR = - $8
Amount received from sale of VCR = $9
Change in account = - 8 + 9 = $1
The length of a rectangle is 2 times the width. If the perimeter is to be less than 96 meters. What are the possible
values for the width? (Use w as the width)
Preview
TIP
Enter your answer using inequality notation. Example: 3 <=w<4
Use or to combine intervals. Example: w< 2 or w >= 3
Enter all real numbers for solutions of that type
Enter each value as a number (like 5, -3, 2.2172) or as a calculation (like 5/3, 243,
5+4)
Enter DNE for an empty set. Use oo to enter Infinity.
Answer:
W>16
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle:
P = 2L+2W
L is the length of the rectangle
W is the width of the rectangle:
Given
P = 96m
If the length of a rectangle is 2 times the width, then L = 2W
Substitute into the formula:
Since the perimeter is less than 96m
96 < 2(2W)+2W
96 < 4W+2W
96 < 6W
Divide both sides by 6:
96/6 < 6W/6
16 < W
W>16
Hence the possible values of the width are all values greater than 16.
Ten less than 5 times the value of a number is equal to 10 times the quantity of
12 more than one-fourth of the number. If a is the number, what is the value of a?
Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
given that the number is a
The expression for Ten less than 5 times the value of a number is given by
5a - 10
10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number.
a/4 is one-fourth of number
12 more than one-fourth of the number
a/4 + 12
expression for 10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number. is given by
10(a/4 + 12) = 10a/4 + 12*10 = 2.5a + 120
Given that the above two expression are equal
equating them we have
5a - 10 = 2.5a + 120
adding 10 both sides
=>5a - 10+ 10 = 2.5a + 120 + 10
=> 5a = 2.5a + 130
subtracting 2.5a from both sides
=> 5a - 2.5a = 2.5a + 130 - 2.5a
=> 2.5a = 130
dividing both side by 2.5
=> a = 130/2.5 = 52
Thus, value of a is 52

A scaled drawing of a rectangle park is 5 inches wide and 7 inches long. The actual park is 280 yards long. What is the area of the actual park in square units?
Area of the actual park is 56000 square yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
A scale drawing of a rectangular park has dimensions as 5 inches width and 7 inches length.
Actual length of the park has been given as 280 yards.
So scale factor used in the drawing is 7 inches
= 280 yards
Or 1 inch = 40 yards
Since width of the rectangular park is = 5 inch
So actual width of the park will be = 5×40 = 200 yards
Now we can calculate the area of the park.
Actual area of the park = Length × Width
= 280×200
= 56000 yards²
Therefore, area of the actual park is 56000 square yards.
