Answer:

22.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

No traffic :

Let speed = x

Time taken = 30 = 30/60 = 0.5 hour

Speed = distance / time

Distance = d

x = d / 0.5 - - - (1)

With traffic :

Speed = x - 30

Time taken = 1 hour 30 minutes = 1.5 hour

x - 30 = d / 1.5

x = d/1.5 + 30 - - - - (2)

Equating (1) and (2)

d / 0.5 = d/1.5 + 30

d /0.5 - d /1.5 = 30

(1.5d - 0.5d) / 0.75 = 30

1.5d - 0.5d = 22.5

1d = 22.5

Hence,

d = 22.5 miles

An airliner carries 150 passengers and has doors with a height of 78 in. Heights of men are normally distributed with a mean of
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x, height of men is N(69, 2.8)

Sample size n =150

Hence sample std dev = \frac{2.8}{\sqrt{150} } =0.229

Hence Z score = \frac{x-69}{0.229}

A) Prob that a random man from 150  can fit without bending

= P(X<78) = P(Z<3.214)=1.0000

B) n =75

Sample std dev = \frac{2.8}{\sqrt{75} } =0.3233

P(X bar <72) = P(Z<9.28) = 1.00

C) Prob of B is more relevent because average male passengers  would be more relevant than a single person

(D) The probability from part (b) is more relevant because it shows the proportion of flights where the mean height of the male passengers will be less than the door height.

Ella completed the following work to test the equivalence of two expressions.
MrRa [10]
Answer:

The expressions are not equivalent because Ella did not know that you can’t use substitution to test for equivalence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equivalent algebraic expressions are those expressions which on simplification give the same resulting expression.

Two algebraic expressions are said to be equivalent if their values obtained by substituting any values of the variables are same.

Two expressions 3f+2.6 and 2f+2.6 are not equivalent, because when f=1,

3f + 2.6 = 3.1 + 2.6 = 3 + 2.6 = 5.6

2f + 2.6 = 2.1 + 2.6 = 2 + 2.6 = 4.6

5.6 = 4.6

Method of substitution can only help her to decide the expresssions are not equivalent, but if she wants to prove the expressions are equivalent, she must prove it for all values of f.

3f + 2.6 = 2f + 2.6

3f = 2f

3f - 2f = 0

f = 0

This is true only when f=0.

Hence,

The expressions are not equivalent because Ella did not know that you can’t use substitution to test for equivalence.

A car with 15 gallons of gasoline drives 420 miles until the tank is empty. Write a linear equation that describes the amount of
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

g = 15 - m/28

Step-by-step explanation:

let g = gasoline

let m = miles

  • g = 15 - m/28

since you can drive 420 miles with 15 gallons of gas, you can drive 28 miles with one gallon (= 420/15 = 28)

e.g.

you drive 100 miles, then you will have:

g = 15 - 100/28 = 15 - 3.57 = 11.43 gallons of gas left

you drive 240 miles:

g = 15 - 240/28 = 6.43 gallons
