Answer:

12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  individual time taken by Anthony, Brian and Chris = t1 , t2 , t3 respectively

So, total time taken by A & B  = 1 / t1  + 1 / t2 , lets suppose = 10  {i}

Total time taken by A & C = 1 / t1  + 1 / t3 , lets suppose = 15 {ii}

Total time taken by B & C = 1 / t2  + 1 / t3 , lets suppose = 20 {iii}

From {i} , 1 / t2 = 10 - 1 / t1

From {ii} 1 / t1 = 15 - 1 / t3

By above two eqtns ,  1 / t2 = 10 - (15 - 1 / t3)

1 / t2 = 1 / t3 - 5

Putting in {iii} , 1 / t3 - 5 + 1 / t3 = 20

2 / t3 = 25

t3 = 12.5

The following items are available for use in a pan balance to measure the weight of a large rock. Which items will yield the gre
weqwewe [10]
The correct option is B.
Pan balance is one of the instruments that are used to measure weights of objects. The instrument is designed in such a way that, it has two pans and a standard weight can be added to one of the pan to determine the weight of the object in the other pan. In the question given above, the pan balance is to be used to measure the weight of a large rock. Salt is the right object to be used on the second pan because it can be packaged in standard weights and it is very light in weight. So, it will be very sensitive to the weight of the rock that is been added on the other pan.

Give an example of two 2×2 matrices A and B, neither of which is the zero matrix or the identity matrix, such that AB=BA.
Katena32 [7]

Let

A=B=\begin{bmatrix}0&1\\1&0\end{bmatrix}

Then

AB=BA=\begin{bmatrix}0&1\\1&0\end{bmatrix}^2=\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}

Grades 3, 4, and 5 have their annual field day together. Each grade level is given 16 gallons of water.
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Their will be enough water for each student to consume 2 cups of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Grade 3, 4 and 5 have their annual field day together . Each grade level is given 16 gallons of water. This means the three grades have 16 × 3 = 48 gallons of water.

The total students involved is 350 student. The total student is the sum of the student in all three grades.

Since the water will be distributed to the students in cups let us convert gallons to cups.

1 gallons = 16 cups

48 gallons = ? cups

cross multiply

48 × 16 = 768 cups.

768 cups of water is available to be shared among the 350 students.

1 student is entitled to 2 cups of water.

350 students will consume 350 × 2 = 700 cups of water.

Therefore, their will be enough water for each student to consume 2 cups of water.

Students in a statistics class are conducting a survey to estimate the mean number of units students at their college are enroll
GaryK [48]

Answer:

(11.76, 12.84)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we can assume that the distribution of individual student enrollment units at this college is approximately normal.

Sample mean =12.3

sample std dev s = 1.9 units

Sample size = 47

Std error = \frac{1.9}{\sqrt{47} } \\=0.277

Z critical value for 95% = 1.96

Margin of error = 1.96*0.277=0.543

Confidence interval =

(12.3-0.543, 12.3+0.543)\\= (11.757, 12.843)

=(11.76, 12.84)
