Answer:

The distance to his office is 2.5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Wade bicycles at a speed of 10 miles an hour and arrives at his office in only 15 minutes.

To find : What is the distance in miles to his office?

Solution :

The relationship between distance, speed and time is

\text{Distnace}=\text{Speed}\times \text{Time}

The speed of bicycle is 10 miles per hour.

Time taken is 15 minutes.

Converting into hours,

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = \frac{1}{60} hours

15 minute = \frac{15}{60} hours

15 minute = 0.25 hours

Substitute the value sin the formula,

\text{Distnace}=10\times0.25

\text{Distnace}=2.5

Therefore, The distance to his office is 2.5 miles.

Find the missing probability. P(A)=15,P(A∪B)=1225,P(A∩B)=7100 ,P(B)=?
Llana [10]

Answer:

<h2>p(B) = 8310</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the addition rule of probability of two events to solve the question. According to the rule given two events A and B;

p(A∪B) = p(A)+p(B) - p(A∩B) where;

A∪B is the union of the two sets A and B

A∩B is the intersection between two sets A and B

Given parameters

P(A)=15

P(A∪B)=1225

P(A∩B)=7100

Required

Probability of event B i.e P(B)

Using the expression above to calculate p(B), we will have;

p(A∪B) = p(A)+p(B) - p(A∩B)

1225 = 15+p(B)-7100

p(B) = 1225-15+7100

p(B) = 8310

Hence the missing probability p(B) is 8310.

Segment AB falls on line 2x − 4y = 8. Segment CD falls on line 4x + 2y = 8. What is true about segments AB and CD? They are perp
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −2 and one half.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because x = -2 and half of -2 is 1

when we use CD line and x2 we find 8x+4y=16 when added to 2x -4y=8 would equal 10x+4y = 2 1/2 xy = 16

When we use for AB line we see they are perpendicular 2 1/2 x 2 = 5 -4y = 8 shows y to be -2 and the 1/2 line leaves -2 1/2 and x also is 2 1/2.

The price that a company charged for a basketball hoop is given by the equation 50 - 5x^2 where x is the number of hoops that ar
DiKsa [7]

Answer: The correct option is first, the number of basketball hoops did the company previously produce to make the same profit is 1.3 million hoops.

Explanation:

Let the number of basketball hoops did the company previously produce to make the same profit be x.

Total Revenue = Price * Quantity

The total revenue in million dollars is,

\text{Total Revenue}=(50-5x^2)x

\text{Total Revenue}=50x-5x^3

The total cost in million dollars is,

Total Cost = One unit cost * Quantity

\text{Total Cost}=30x

Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost

\text{Profit}=50x-5x^3-30x

The profit is 15 million.

15=20x-5x^3

5x^3-20x+15=0\\x^2-4x+3=0\\(x-1)(x^2+x-3)=0

The value of x is 1 and \frac{-1\pm \sqrt{13}}{2}.

The production is always positive therefore the value of x either 1 or 1.3. Since 1 million is not available in the options therefore the the correct optin is 1.3 million hoops.

A Sunday newspaper lists the 10 used car prices for a foreign compact, with age x measured in years and selling price y measured
Masteriza [31]

Question:

A Sunday newspaper lists the 10 used car prices for a foreign compact, with age x measured in years and selling price y measured in thousands of dollars. A Sunday newspaper lists the 10 used car prices for a foreign compact, with age x measured in years and selling price y measured in thousands of dollars.

Picture of data can be found in the picture attached.

Answer:

Slope = -1.71

Intercept = 22.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line usually takes the general form :

ŷ = mx + c

Where :

m = slope or gradient

c = intercept

Inputting the data into a linear regression calculator ;

The output is : ŷ = -1.70872X + 22.04985

Comparing the output to the general formula;

The slope (m):

m = -1.70872 = -1.71(2 decimal places).

The intercept (c):

c = 22.04985 = 22.05(2 decimal places).

earnstyle [38]

1) You included neihter what Ramesh says nor the statements, then I can you tell some facts about the pattern.


2) The sequence is: 2401, 343, 49, 7, and 1.


3) The first term is 2401


4) The sequence is a decreasing geometric one.


5) The ratio is found dividing two consecutive terms (the second by the first, or the third by the second, or the fourth by the third, or the fifth by fourth):


1/7 = 7 / 49 = 49 / 343 = 343 / 2401.


So, the ratio is 1/7


6) The sum of that sequence is 2401 + 343 + 49 + 7 + 1 = 2801
