Answer:

Time at which the meet = 10:17:24 am

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Ivan = 12 mph

Speed of Kate = 16 mph

Total distance traveled = Initial separation = 40 miles

Ivan leaves his house at 8:00 a.m and Kate leaves her house at 9:30 a.m

If t is the time of catch up after Ivan starting, time taken by Kate is t - 1.5,

We have

Distance = Speed x Time

Total distance traveled = Distance traveled by Kate + Distance traveled by Ivan

40 = t x 12 + (t-1.5) x 16

40 = 28t - 24

28t = 64

t = 2.29 hours

So after 2.29 hours of Ivan's starting they meet,

Time = 8:00 am + 2.29 hours = 10:00 am + 0.29 x 60 minutes = 10:17am + 0.4 x 60 seconds = 10:17:24 am

Time at which the meet = 10:17:24 am

Ivan DATA:
rate = 12 mph ; time = t hrs ; distance = 12t miles

Kate DATA:
rate = 16 mph ; time = t-(3/2) hrs ; distance = 16t - 24 miles

Equation:
12t + 16t-24 = 40 miles

28t = 64
time = 16/7 = 2hr 17 min
Ans: 8:00 + 2hr 17 min = 10:17AM

I will give brainliest to the best answer to this question: Each year, the Department of Water Works measures the chloride conce

Maslowich

Answer:

The total change that will likely occur in 2 years is $=-3\frac{2}{3}$ mg/L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The first year, they found the chloride concentration changed by $-1\frac{3}{5}$ mg/L .

It is estimated that the chloride concentration will change $-2\frac{1}{15}$ mg/L the next year.

To find : What is the total change that will likely occur in 2 years?

Solution :

The chloride concentration changed by $-1\frac{3}{5}=-\farc{8}{5}$ mg/L in first year.

The chloride concentration will change $-2\frac{1}{15}=-\frac{31}{15}$ mg/L the next year.

The total change that will likely occur in 2 years is

$=-\frac{8}{5}+(-\frac{31}{15})$

$=\frac{-24-31}{15}$

$=\frac{-55}{15}$

$=\frac{-11}{3}$

In a mixed fraction - $=-3\frac{2}{3}$ mg/L

The temperature reading from a thermocouple placed in a constant-temperature medium is normally distributed with mean μ, the act

stealth61 [152]

Answer: 0.2551

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The temperature reading from a thermocouple placed in a constant-temperature medium is normally distributed with mean μ, the actual temperature of the medium, and standard deviation σ.

Significance level : $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$

The critical z-value for 95% confidence : $z_{\alpha/2}=1.960$ (1)

Since , $z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$ (where x be any random variable that represents the temperature reading from a thermocouple.)

Then, from (1)

$\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=1.96\\\\ x-\mu=1.96\sigma$ (2)

Also, all readings are within 0.5° of μ,

i.e. $x-\mu$

i.e. $1.96\sigma$ [From (2)]

i.e. $\sigma$

i.e. $\sigma\approx0.2551$

The required standard deviation : $\sigma=0.2551$

Mr Chua borrows a sum of money from the bank which charges a compound interest of 4.2% per annum, compounded 6.Given that Mr Chu

Inessa [10]

Answer:

Original sum of money = $2246.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest = $96.60

Interest is compounded 6 times in a year ; n = 6

time = 1 year ; Rate of interest (r) = 4.2%

Interest = Future Value - Principal Value ...........(1)

$\text{Future Value = }Principal\cdot (1+\frac{r}{100\times n})^{n\cdot t}\\\\\text{Substituting this value in equation (1) , We get }\\\\Interest=Principal\cdot (1+\frac{r}{100\times n})^{n\cdot t}-Principal\\\\\implies 96.60=Principal[\cdot (1+\frac{4.2}{100\times 6})^{6\cdot 1}-1]\\\\\implies Principal=\$2246.51$

Hence, the original sum of money borrowed = $2246.51
