Masteriza [31]

Original Ratio of 1 in = 7 ft so 3 in = 21 ft
Now, New ratio 1 in = x ft so 3 in = 27ft

1/x = 3/27

cross multiply a/b = c/d ad = bc
1/x = 3/27
3x = 27
x = 9

1 in represents 9 ft

Bumek [7]

Answer:

(a) and (e) are not valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of traials is not fixed. In fact, the random variable counts the total number of trials.

b) This is true, the result of each trial is independent of the others.

c) This is also true. The outcomes are failure and success.

d) This is true as well, all trials are identically distributed.

e) Since (a) is not valid, this cant be true.

Find a matrix representation of the transformation L(x, y) = (3x + 4y, x − 2y).

mario62 [17]

Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}x&y\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{cc}3&1\\4&-2\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}3x+4y&x-2y\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

The general matrix representation for this transformation would be:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}x&y\end{array}\right] * A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}3x+4y&x-2y\end{array}\right]$

As the matrix A should have the same amount of rows as columns in the firs matrix and the same amount of columns as the result matrix it should be a 2x2 matrix.

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}x&y\end{array}\right] * \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}3x+4y&x-2y\end{array}\right]$

Solving the matrix product you have that the members of the result matrix are:

3x+4y = a*x + c*y

x - 2y = b*x + d*y

So the matrix A should be:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&1\\4&-2\end{array}\right]$

Elena bikes 20 minutes each day for exercise. Write an equation to describe the relationship between her distance in miles, D, a

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The equation to describe the relationship between Elena distance:

a) D = 4.34 miles, b) D = 4.25 miles and c) 12D = M + 3N miles.

Solution:

Given, Elena bikes 20 minutes each day for exercise.

We have to write an equation to describe the relationship between her distance in miles, D, and her biking speed, in miles per hour,

We know that, distance travelled = speed time

a. At a constant speed of 13 miles per hour for the entire 20 minutes

Her speed is 13 miles per hour.

Then, distance D miles = 13 miles per hour 20 minutes

b. At a constant speed of 15 minutes per hour for the first 5 minutes, then at 12 miles per hour for the last 15 minutes

Now, total distance travelled = distance travelled with 15 mph + distance travelled with 12 mph

c. At a constant speed of M miles per hour for the first 5 minutes, then at N miles per hour for the last 15 minutes

Now, total distance travelled = distance travelled with M mph + distance travelled with N mph

Hence, a) D = 4.34 miles, b) D = 4.25 miles and c) 12D = M + 3N miles.
