Answer:

18 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ferris wheel will have to take 48 people repeatedly until all have gone with the last group of people being 48 or less.

Given that there are 823 people with tickets to ride the ferris wheel

Number of time to run the wheel = 823/48

= 17 5/48

It means that the ferris wheel will take 48 people 17 times and 5 people once. Hence it will be run 18 times to give everyone a ride.

17.14 times would be exact but round up to 18

kirill [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we know

$\vec{i}\times \vec{j}=\vec{k}$

$\vec{j}\times \vec{k}=\vec{i}$

$\vec{k}\times \vec{i}=\vec{j}$

(a) $\left [ \left ( \hat{i}+\hat{j}\right )\times \hat{i}\right ]\times \hat{j}$

$=\left [ \hat{i}\times \hat{i}+\hat{j}\times \hat{i}\right ]\times \hat{j}$

$=\left [ 0-\hat{k}\right ]\times \hat{j}$

$=\hat{i}$

(b) $\left ( \hat{j}+\hat{k}\right )\times \left ( \hat{j}\times \hat{k}\right )$

$=\left ( \hat{j}+\hat{k}\right )\times \left ( \hat{i}\right )$

$=\hat{k}+\hat{j}$

(c) $4\hat{i}\times \left ( \hat{i}+\hat{j}\right )$

$=4\hat{i}\times \hat{i}+4\hat{i}\times \hat{j}$

$=0+4\hat{k}$

(d) $\left ( \hat{k}+\hat{j}\right )\times \left ( \hat{k}-\hat{j}\right )$

$=\hat{k}\times \hat{k}-\hat{k}\times \hat{j}+\hat{j}\times \hat{k}-\hat{j}\times \hat{j}$

$=0+\hat{i}+\hat{i}-0$

$=2\hat{i}$

Personnel tests are designed to test a job applicant's cognitive and/or physical abilities. A particular dexterity test is adm

Elza [17]

Answer:

26.11% of the test scores during the past year exceeded 83.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

It is known that for all tests administered last year, the distribution of scores was approximately normal with mean 78 and standard deviation 7.8. This means that $\mu = 78, \sigma = 7.8$ .

Approximately what percentatge of the test scores during the past year exceeded 83?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when $X = 83$ . So:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{83 - 78}{7.8}$

$Z = 0.64$

$Z = 0.64$ has a pvalue of 0.7389.

This means that 1-0.7389 = 0.2611 = 26.11% of the test scores during the past year exceeded 83.

For a fish swimming at a speed v relative to the water, the energy expenditure per unit time is proportional to v3. It is believ

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Value of v that minimizes E is v = 3u/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that;

E(v) = av³L/(v-u)

Now, using the quotient rule, we have;

dE/dv = [(v-u)•3av²L - av³L(1)]/(v - u)²

Expanding and equating to zero, we have;

[3av³L - 3av²uL - av³L]/(v - u)² = 0

This gives;

(2av³L - 3av²uL)/(v-u)² = 0

Multiply both sides by (v-u)² to give;

(2av³L - 3av²uL) = 0

Thus, 2av³L = 3av²uL

Like terms cancel to give;

2v = 3u

Thus, v = 3u/2
