Ken normally leaves work at 5:00 pm, but he is leaving 20 minutes late today. He decides to make up time by taking the toll road

instead of side streets. He can travel three times faster by taking the toll road. Create an equation in terms of x to represent the number of minutes after 5:00 pm he arrives home from work if he leaves late. Let x represent the number of minutes his normal commute takes when he leaves on time.
y equals one third times x plus twenty
y = 3x + 20
y equals one third times x minus twenty
y = 3x − 20

Answer:

y =1/3x+20

Step-by-step explanation:

He starts 20 minutes late so we need to add 20 minutes to the time

He travels 3 times faster so he takes 1/3 of the normal time x

y =1/3x+20

You want to rent a limousine for a trip to the city. The limo costs $700 for the night and $0.15 per mile. You have $750 to spen
frez [133]
The first thing I would do is write an expression for the amount the limo will cost in terms of the number of miles you drive.  In this scenario, the cost=.15(mile)+700.
Now is the question, should the limo cost more or less than $750 to stay on budget?  The answer is you should spend less than $750.  Thus, when writing the inequality, or .15m+700<750.  However, you could spend exactly $750 so you inequality should really be .15m+700≤750.  Now you just need to solve this for the number of miles you can drive.  

First, subtract 700 from both sides and you are left with .15m≤50
Then divide both sides by .15 and you are left with m ≤ 333.33.  Thus, the limo can only travel 333.33 miles.

Oxana [17]
A graphing calculator shows the rocks are at the same height 1.5 seconds after they are released.

That height is 3.975 meters.

_____
f(x) = g(x)
-4.9x^2 +15 = -4.9x^2 +10x
15 = 10x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 4.9x^2
1.5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10
f(1.5) = -4.9*2.25 +15 = 3.975

A textbook has 500 pages on which typographical errors could occur. Suppose that there are exactly 10 such errors randomly locat
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The probability of a  selection of 50 pages will contain no errors  is  0.368

The probability that the selection of the random pages will contain at least two errors is 0.2644

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

Let q represent the no of typographical errors.

Suppose that there are exactly 10 such errors randomly located on a textbook of 500 pages. Let \mu be the random variable that follows a Poisson distribution, then mean \mu = \dfrac{10}{500}= 0.02

and the mean that the random selection of 50 pages will contain no error is \lambda = 50 \times 0.02 =1

∴

Pr(q= 0) = \dfrac{e^{-1} (1)^0}{0!}

Pr(q =0) = 0.368

The probability of a  selection of 50 pages will contain no errors  is  0.368

The probability that 50 randomly page contains at least 2 errors is computed as follows:

P(X ≥ 2) = 1 - P( X < 2)

P(X ≥ 2) = 1 - [ P(X = 0) + P (X =1 )]    since it is less than 2

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - [ \dfrac{e^{-1} 1^0}{0!} +\dfrac{e^{-1} 1^1}{1!} ]

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - [0.3678 +0.3678]

P(X \geq 2) = 1 -0.7356

P(X ≥ 2) = 0.2644

The probability that the selection of the random pages will contain at least two errors is 0.2644
