Tom and Jimmy plan to leave at the same time from home and
walk towards each other. Tom walks 52 meters per minute, Jimmy
walks 70 meters per minute. The two meet at cafe shop on the
way. Let's suppose that Tom leaves 4 minutes earlier than Jimmy
and their speeds remain the same, the two will still meet at the
cafe shop. What is the distance between Tom and Jimmy's home?

Answers

Answer 1

To find the distance between the homes of Tom and Jimmy, it is assumed

that the distances from their home to the café are equal.

The distance between Tom and Jimmy's home is [tex]\underline{1,617.\overline 7 \ meters}[/tex]

Reasons:

The direction in which Tom and Jimmy walks = Towards each other

The speed at which Tom walks = 52 meters per minute

The speed with which Jimmy walks = 70 meters per minute

The time at which Tom leaves = 4 minutes earlier than Jimmy

The point at which they meet = The café

The rate of their speed = Constant

Required:

The distance between Tom and Jimmy home.

Solution:

Tom and Jimmy had a plan to walk at the same speed and meet up at the café.

We have;

The café is equal distance from Tom and Jimmy's houses.

Which gives the following simultaneous equation.

52 × (4 + t) = The distance of Tom's house from the café

70 × t = The distance of Jimmy's  house from the café

52 × (4 + t) = 70 × t

52 × 4 = 70 × t - 52 × t = 18 × t

[tex]\displaystyle t = \frac{52 \times 4}{18} = \frac{104}{9} = 11.\overline{6}[/tex]

The time it take Jimmy to reach the café, t = [tex]\mathbf{11.\overline6}[/tex] minutes

The distance between their homes, d = 52 × (4 + t) + 70 × t

∴ d = 52 × (4 + [tex]11.\overline6[/tex]) + 70 × [tex]11.\overline6[/tex] = 1,617.[tex]\mathbf{\overline 7}[/tex]

The distance between Tom and Jimmy's home = 1,617.[tex]\overline 7[/tex] meters

Karen stacks a set of cans as shown. The top can has a diameter of 2 inches, the middle can has a diameter of 5 inches, and the bottom can has a diameter of 6 inches.
please help me

Answers

Answer:

B and E are the only correct answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The top can's diameter is 2 inches, so the radius is 1. First find the area of the circular end, pi * r^2, 3.14 * 1^2 = 3.14

Then multiply by the height  3.14 * 5 = 15.7 cubic inches

The middle can's diameter is 5 inches so the radius is 2.5.

3.14 * 2.5^2 = 3.14 x 6.25 = 19.625

Multiply by the height 19.625 * 3 = 58.875 cubic inches

The bottom can's diameter is 6 inches, so the radius is 3. 3.14 * 9 = 28.26

Multiply by the height 28.26 * 2 = 56.52 cubic inches

15.7 + 58.875 + 56.52 = 131.095

B and E are the only correct answers.

A quantity with an initial value of 240 grows exponentially at a rate of 9.5% every 2 decades. What is the value of the quantity after 52 years, to the nearest hundredth?

Answers

Answer:  303.870087962229

Simplify ≈303.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Grows 9.5%→r=0.095 Divide by 100

Grows every 2 decades: exponent of t2

(where t is in decades)

Write a function:

f(t)=240(1+0.095) ^t/2 Percent change every 2 decades

52 years→52/10→5.2 decades There are 10 years in a decade

Plug in t=5.2

f(5.2)=240(1+0.095) 5.2/2

. He is 20 feet from the base of the tree when he measures the angle. What is the height of the tree rounded to the nearest hundredth?

Answers

Answer:

  86.63 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent relation applies.

  tree height = (20 ft)·tan(77°) ≈ 86.63 ft

It is somewhat problematic for Bob to see the top of a white pine tree at that angle of elevation. His view would likely be obscured by the branches of the tree.

At a restaurant, 30% of customers donate to charity in exchange for a coupon. Estimate the probability that it will take at least four customers to find one who donates.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we can use complements. We can find, instead the probability that at least one will donate, the probability that not none of them will donate.

First, we can find the probability that none will donate, which will be (70%)^4, since the chance each will not donate is the same. From this we get 24.01%.

To find the probability that at least one donates, we do the complement:

100%-24.01%=75.99%

Karl’s rectangular vegetable garden is 20 feet by 45 feet, and Makenna’s is 25 feet by 40 feet. Whose garden is larger in area?

Answers

Answer:

Makennas

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length * width

Area of Karl's garden = 20 * 45 = 900ft²

Area of Makenna's garden = 25 * 40 = 1000ft²

1000 is greater than 900 therefore makennas garden has a greater area than Karls garden

Answer:Makenna's garden is larger in area than Karl'sStep-by-step explanation:Area of Karl's rectangle garden = 20 x 45 feet = 900 feetArea of Makenna's garden = 25 x 40 = 1000 feetConclusion:

measures 54. What is the measure of side VW?

Answers

Answer:

162

Step-by-step explanation:

In geometry, dialation is increasing the size of a shape on a plane. Since the porblem you have givine isn't requiring the triangle to be centered around a point, this is fairly easy. If you are increasing UVW by a scale factor of 3, you are multiplying each side by 3. So, if side VW is 54, after dilation VW' will have a length of 162. (54 × 3 = 162)

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the value of the test statistic is z = 10.33.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is of [tex]\frac{3}{4} = 0.75[/tex], hence:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.75[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is different, that is:

[tex]H_1: p \neq 0.75[/tex]

The test statistic is given by:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\overline{p}[/tex] is the sample proportion. p is the proportion tested at the null hypothesis. n is the sample size.

For this problem, the parameters are: [tex]p = 0.75, \overline{p} = 0.89, n = 1201[/tex]
