Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

804.5 meters. to yards

Step 1:

(1 mile = 1,609 meters)

(1 mile = 1,760 yards)

1,609 meters is being multiplied by conversion factor 1 mile over 804.5 meters equals 2 miles

1,609 meter  x  1 mile  = 2 miles

804.5 meters

Step 2:

(1 mile = 1,609 meters)

(1 mile = 1,760 yards)

2 miles is being multiplied by conversion factor 1760 yards over 1 mile equals 3,520 yards

2 miles x  1,760 yards  = 3,520 yards

1 mile

no need of step 3. the conversion below should be on step 2.

to convert miles into yards.

(1 mile = 1,609 meters)

(1 mile = 1,760 yards)

The lines y=3x-1 and y=ax+2 are perpendicular if a=___

mezya [45]

Answer:

$a = \frac{-1}{3}.$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line in the form .

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope and c is the y- intercept .

As given

The lines y=3x-1 and y=ax+2 are perpendicular .

Here 3 is slope for equation of line y=3x-1 and a is slope for equation of line

y=ax+2 .

Now by using properties of the perpendicular lines property .

When two lines are perpendicular than slope of one line is negative reciprocal of the other line .

Thus

$a = \frac{-1}{3}$

Therefore $a = \frac{-1}{3}.$

Suppose that a high school marching band has 125 members. Of these 125 band members, 41 are seniors, 24 play the trumpet, and 10

Alborosie

Answer:

The probability is 42%

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

It's the probability of the occurrence of an event B knowing that an event A has already occurred and A and B are related (not independent).

If P(A) is the probability of occurrence of A, $P(A\cap B)$ is the probability of both events to occur, and P(B|A) is the required probability occurrence of B:

$\displaystyle P(B|A)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}$

We know a high school marching band has 125 members, from which 41 are seniors (event B), 24 play the trumpet (event A), and 10 are seniors who play the trumpet.

The probability that a randomly selected band member plays the trumpet is

$\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{24}{125}$

The probability that he or she has both attributes is

$\displaystyle P(A\cap B)=\frac{10}{125}$

Thus, the required conditional probability is

$\displaystyle P(B|A)=\frac{\frac{10}{125}}{\frac{24}{125}}$

$\displaystyle P(B|A)=\frac{10}{24}=\frac{5}{12}=0.42$

The probability is 42%

5 bricklayers can lay a total of 50 bricks in 30 minutes. How many bricklayers will

iragen [17]

Answer:

First look at the number of bricks alone.

Going from 50 bricks to 60 bricks is more work, thus it will require more people. The number of people would be the ratio of the 2. Since the number must be larger, you know the numerator must be the larger of the 2 numbers, so you get 60/50

Next look at the time alone.

Going from 30 minutes to 20 minutes is more work, thus it will require more people. The number of people would be the ratio of the 2. Since the number must be larger, you know the numerator must be the larger of the 2 numbers, so you get 30/20

Now you can just multiply everything.

= 5*60/50*30/20

= 5*6/5*3/2

= 90\10

= 9.
