A student wrote four statements during math class. Which statement contains an error? If Iesha traveled at an average speed of 3

8 miles per hour for 18 hours, she traveled 684 miles. If Jason traveled at an average speed of 46 miles per hour for 16 hours, he traveled 736 miles. If Charmaine traveled at an average speed of 54 miles per hour for 14 hours, she traveled 766 miles. If Raphael traveled at an average speed of 68 miles per hour for 12 hours, he traveled 816 miles.

The third statement contains error. All of the other ones are correct. If Charamaine's speed 54mph, for 14 hours, her distance should be 756 miles, not 766 miles. The question only had a multiplication error, the rest have been double checked. I checked using a scientific calculator, this answer should be right. Hope this helps in a way, and have a nice day!

Joline is solving the equation 0 = x2 – 5x – 4 using the quadratic formula. Which value is the negative real number solution to
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

- 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the general quadratic formula, as " x = -b \frac{+}{-}  \sqrt{(b^2-4ac)} / 2a. " This can be represented by two separate formula's, which will come in handy when determining the positive and negative roots of the equation ( and here we need the negative root ):

1 ) x = - b+ ( \sqrt{b^2-4ac} ) / 2a,

2 ) x = - b- ( \sqrt{b^2-4ac} ) / 2a

We know that a = 1, b = - 5, and c = - 4 from the equation " 0 = x^2 - 5x - 4 " ( which can be rewritten in the form 0 = ax^2 + bx + c ). Therefore, simply plug in these values into the quadratic formula to receive two solutions:

x = 5 + ( \sqrt{( - 5 )^2 - 4( 1 )( - 4 )} ) / 2( 1 ),\\x = 5 + ( \sqrt{25 + 16} ) / 2,\\x = 5 + \sqrt{41} / 2,\\x = ( About ) 5.7- This is our positive solution

__________

x = 5 - ( \sqrt{( - 5 )^2 - 4( 1 )( - 4 )} ) / 2( 1 ),\\x = 5 - ( \sqrt{25 + 16} ) / 2,\\x = 5 - \sqrt{41} / 2,\\x = ( About ) - 0.7- And this is our negative solution

You can see that - 0.7 is the negative real number solution to Joline's quadratic equation!

While at a carnival, Andrew comes across a game that involves rolling a die. According to the game's rules, if the number rolled
Reptile [31]

Answer:

he can expect to lose 0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must calculate the expected value of the game.

If x is a discrete random variable that represents the gain obtained when rolling a dice, then the expected value E is:

E =\sum xP (x)

When throwing a dice the possible values are:

x: 1→ -$9;  2→ $4;  3→ -$9;  4→ $8;  5→ -$9;  6→ $12

The probability of obtaining any of these numbers is:

p=\frac{1}{6}

The gain when obtaining an even number is twice the number.

The loss to get an odd number is $ 9

So the expected gain is:

E=-9*\frac{1}{6}-9*\frac{1}{6}-9*\frac{1}{6} + 4*\frac{1}{6} + 8*\frac{1}{6} + 12*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E =-27*\frac{1}{6} + 24*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E=-3*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E=-$0.5
