As part of Kayla's exercise program, she either runs 6 miles/day or rides her bike 10 miles/day. Her new goal is to cover a mini

mum distance of 200 miles, with at least 15 of the days running. She would like to determine the number of days it would take to accomplish this.

To determine the number of days, we need to set up equations relating the given values above. The total distance that Kayla would want to travel is a sum of the total distance she traveled from running and the total distance she traveled from biking. So,

200 miles = (6 miles/day) x + (10 miles/day) y

where x is the number of days she spent running and y is the number of days she spent biking.

If the minimum days she used for biking would be 15 days or y = 15, then

200 miles = (6 miles/day) x + (10 miles/day) (15 days)

Solving for x,
200 = 6x + 150
50 = 6x
x = 8.3333 days

Total number of days = 15 days for biking + 8.3333 days for running = 23.3333 days or about 24 days.

Answer:

Kayla will be able to cover the distance of 200 miles by riding bike for 11 days and by running for 15 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers of days Kayla's has to run be x

Numbers of days Kayla's has to ride bike be y

Speed while running = 6 miles/day

Distance covered by running in x days = 6miles/day × x

Speed while riding a bike = 10 mile/day

Distance covered by riding bike in y days = 10 miles/day × y

Distance desired by Kayla to cover = 200 miles

200miles=6 miles/day\times x+10 miles/day \times y

At least 15 of the days running.Put  x = 15 days in above equation:

200miles=6 miles/day\times 15 days+10 miles/day \times y

200 miles - 90 miles=10 miles/day \times y

\frac{110 miles}{10 miles/day}=y

y= 11 days

Kayla will be able to cover the distance of 200 miles by riding bike for 11 days and by running for 15 days.

The number of books borrowed from a library each week follows a normal distribution. When a sample is taken for several weeks, t
dexar [7]

Answer:

2.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the  number of books borrowed from a library each week

Given that X is normal with mean = 190 and std dev = 30

Thus Z score would be

Z=\frac{x-190}{30}

Required probability or chance = P(X>250)

=P(z>\frac{250-190}{30}

=P(Z>2)

=0.5-0.4772

=0.0228

=2.28%

The graph of f(x) = StartRoot x EndRoot is reflected over the y-axis. Use the graphing calculator to graph this reflection. Whic
labwork [276]

Answer:

<em>(–81, 9), (–36, 6), (–1, 1) </em> are the correct three points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

f(x) =\sqrt x

Please refer to the attached image.

The green line shows the graph of actual function.

It is reflected over y axis.

The reflected graph is shown in black color in attached image.

When reflected over y axis, the sign of variable x changes from Positive to Negative.

So, the resultant function becomes:

f(x)=\sqrt{-x}

i.e. we will have to give the values of x as negative now.

so, the options in which value of x is negative are the possible answers only.

The possible answers are:

(–81, 9), (–36, 6), (–1, 1) and

(–49, 7), (–18, 9), (–1, 1)

Now, we will check the square root function condition.

In the 2nd option, (–18, 9) does not satisfy the condition.

So, the correct answer is:

<em>(–81, 9), (–36, 6), (–1, 1)</em>

I talk to an average of 8 customers per hour during an 8 hour shift and need to increase the amount of customers i help by 20%,
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The number of customer needed to achieve is 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The number of customer per hour = 8

The time taken = 8 hours

The rate of increase = 20 %

Let The increase in number of customer after 20 % increment = x

So ,  The number of customer after n hours = initial number × (1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{n}

or, The number of customer after 8 hours = 8 ×  (1+\dfrac{\textrm 20}{100})^{8}

or, The number of customer after 8 hours = 8 × 4.2998

∴The number of customer after 8 hours = 34.39 ≈ 34

Hence The number of customer needed to achieve is 34  answer

A while back, either James borrowed $12 from his friend Rita or she borrowed $12 from him, but he can’t quite remember which. Ei
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amounts of money James may have after he sees Rita be x.

It is given that either James borrowed $12 from his friend Rita or she borrowed $12 from him.

So meeting Rita second time either he will $12 or he will receive $12.

The amounts of money James may have after second meeting with Rita is:

Case 1: If he pays $12.

x=42.80-12             .... (1)

Case 1: If he receives $12.

x=42.80+12           .... (2)

On combining equation (1) and (2), we get

x=42.80\pm 12

Subtract 42.80 from both sides.

x-42.80=\pm 12

It can be written as

|x-42.80|=12

Therefore first option is correct.
