Answer: A - Ahmed wins the chess game
Step-by-step explanation:
Values which are proportional are represented by the Greek letter ‘Alpha’
So if A is proportional to B
We put the Alpha symbol between A and B to represent it
Let x be rate of boat in still water
let y be rate of current
we use this equation to relate quantities:
distance = speed · time
we have two unknowns so we might need to create a system of equationss
upstream:
speed (in km/h) = x - y
(we get speed of boat then subtract the current's speed from it since current is going against boat direction)
time = 3 hours
distance = 144 km
downstream:
speed (in hm/h) = x + y
(we get speed of boat then add the current's spd from it since current is going against boat direction)
time = 2 hours
distance = 144 km (same distance upstream and downstream)
using distance = speed times time
for upstream
144 = 3(x-y)
144 = 3x - 3y
for downstream
144 = 2(x+y)
72 = x + y
system of eqns:
144 = 3x - 3y
72 = x + y
solve by substitution: move 72 = x + y into x = 72 - y and subst into other equation for x
144 = 3(72 - y) - 3y
144 = 216 - 3y - 3y
144 = 216 - 6y
144 - 216 = -6y
-72 = -6y
y = 12 km/h
Use x = 72 - y to find x with y = 12: x = 72 - 12 = 60 km/h
rate of boat in still water is 60 km/h
rate of the current is 12 km/h
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Null hypothesis: hypthesis to test that there is no significant difference between the specific characteristic of a population. Analysts look to reject a null hypothesis
A. the shipping company's average delivery time is different from 3 days. This is an example of alternative hypothesis. Null hypothesis is writtien as a claim
B. This again is an example of alternate hypthesis. The claim that mean is 0.03 is rejected with the results
C. This is a claim
D. This is rejection of a claim that mean is 1 pound
E. This is rejection of claim that average delivery time is 3 days.
There are different definitions of "whole numbers".
Some define it as an integer (i.e. positive or negative) [some dictionaries]
Some define it as a non-negative integer. [most math definitions]
We will take the math definition, i.e. 0<= whole number < ∞
To find pairs (i.e. two) whole numbers with a sum of 110, we start with
0+110=110
1+109=110
2+108=110
...
54+56=110
55+55=110
Since the next one, 56+54=110 is the same pair (54,56) as 54+56=110, we stop at 55+55=110 for a total of 56 pairs.
