Time = distance/speed

The distance between the walkers increases at the rate of (8 mph) -(2 mph) = 6 mph. That distance will be 4.5 mi after ...
  (4.5 mi)/(6 mi/h) = 4.5/6 h = 3/4 h

In 3/4 hour they will be 4.5 miles apart.

mote1985 [20]

Answer

Find out the how much fertilizer will Timothy need for two fields, one that is 22.5 acres and one that is 38.25 acres .

To proof

As given

Timothy is putting fertilizer on a field after planting some crops

The directions on the barrel state to use 0.75 quarts for each acre of land.

fertilizer will Timothy need for 22.5 acres = 22.5 × 0.75

                                                                     = 16.875 quarts

fertilizer will Timothy need for 38.25 acres = 38.25×0.75

                                                                       = 28.6875 quarts

total fetilizer Timothy need for two fields = 16.875 +  28.6875

                                                                   = 45.5625

                                                                   = 45.6 ( approx )quarts

Therefore the total  fertilizer will Timothy need for two fields be  45.6 ( approx )quarts .

Hence proved

Given a normal distribution with u = 75 and o = 40, if you select a sample of n = 16, a) what is the probability that the sample
Volgvan

Answer:

a) 0.0228

b) 94.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating a z-score when you are given a random.number of samples is z = (x-μ)/σ/√n

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

n = random number of samples

Given a normal distribution with u = 75 and o = 40, if you select a sample of n = 16,

a) what is the probability that the sample mean is above 95? (4 d.p.) b)

= x = 95

Hence:

z = 95 - 75/40/√16

= 20/40/4

= 20/10

= 2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<95) = 0.97725

P(x>95) = 1 - P(x<95) = 0.02275

The probability that the sample mean is above 95 to 4 decimal places = 0.0228

b) What is the value, of which there is 97.5% chance that a sample mean is less than that value?

97.5% chance = z score for the confidence interval = 1.96

Hence:

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n

1.96 = x - 75/40/√16

1.96 = x - 75/ 40/4

1.96 = x - 75/10

Cross Multiply

1.96 × 10 = x - 75

19.6 = x - 75

x = 19.6 + 75

x = 94.6

The value, of which there is 97.5% chance that a sample mean is less than that value is 94.6

Find the difference. (k2−7k+2)−(k2−12)
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

-7k + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

(k² - 7k + 2) - (k² - 12)

k² - 7k + 2 - k² + 12

k² - k² - 7k + 2 + 12

-7k + 14

A pizza shop sells pizzas that are 10 inches (in diameter) or larger. A 10-inch cheese pizza costs
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A pizza shop sells pizzas that are 10 inches orr larger. A 10-inch cheese pizza costs $8 and each additional costs $1.50 and each additional topping costs $0.75.

The equation that represents the cost of a pizza is:

P = $10 + $1.50a + $0.75b

Where 'a' represents the number additional inches and 'b' represents the number of additional toppings.
