Call y the average speed from the library to the gym

Call x the average speed from the house to the library.

<span>"Her average speed from the library to the gym was 15 miles per hour less than her average speed from her house to the library" =></span> y = x - 15

So, x - 15 represents Joyces's average speed from her house to the libray to the gym.

MissTica

Answer:

1 clean cloth

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the problem is asking the number of clean clothes she picks up when she picked 5 articles.

Bill, George, and Ross, in order, roll a die. The first one to roll an even number wins and the game is ended. What is the proba
hram777 [196]

Answer:0.5714\frac{1}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Bill, George, and Ross, in order, roll a die.

The first one to roll an even number wins and the game is ended.

Since Bill starts the game he can win by throwing even number or lose by throwing odd number

P(win) = 0.5, otherwise, the die will go to George.  For Bill to win, both George and Ross should throw an odd number so that Bill again gets the chance with game non ending.

Thus we have Prob of Bill winning =P of Bill winning in I throw +P of Bill winning in his II chance of throw +....infinitely

To get back the dice once he loses probability

= p both throws odd = 0.5(0.5) = 0.25

Thus Prob for Bill winning

= 0.5+0.25(0.5)^2+0.25(0.5)^3(0.25)+...

This is an infinite geometric series with I term 0.5 and common ratio 0.125<1

Sum = \frac{a}{1-r} =\frac{0.5}{1-0.125} =0.5714
