Sam and Liam raced each other up and then down the hill. Sam's average speed up the hill was 1 mph, and his average speed down t

he hill was 9 mph. Liam ran up the hill and down the hill with the same speed, 2 mph. If the path from the bottom to the top of the hill is 1 mile long, how much time did it take each of the boys to finish - and who was the winner?

So, we know that it takes Sam 1 mph up and 9 mph down and it takes Liam both 2 mph down and up the hill. So if we divide the 2 mph for Liam by 2 miles (the whole length of the hill)  we will get 1 or 1 hour. Then we do 1/1 (i don't know how to explain this part of why we do that, sorry) and than we do 1 / 9 and we get 1/9 so we add them and get 1 1/9 so that's Sam's time.

      So, Liam took one hour and Sam took 1 and 1/9 hours, in conclusion liam was faster

Answer: When the focus is on just one group of objects were are using categorical probabilities.

The easy why to think of this is the word category. In this case, we are looking at individual categories of probabilities. The rest of the choices involved dealing with multiple events and samples.

Eliza brought 3 pans of homemade fruit bars to school. Her classmates ate 7/12 of each pan. Eliza gave 1 whole pan of the leftov
-BARSIC- [3]
To solve this, you have to take 7/12 out of each pan first, so how to do that is to divide each pan into 1/12. So you did that, and all three pans equal 36/12. Great. Eliza has 36/12 fruit bars. 
Now, you see that the classmates at 7/12 out of EACH. To find that out, you just multiply 7/12 by 3 which is 21/12. Subtract 21/12 from 36/12 since the classmates ate 21/12 out of the total and you get 15/12.
Now she gave 1 pan to the secretaries, which is 12/12, so you subtract that from the 15/12 you have left over. That's 3/12.

And she brought 3/12 home. You can simplify that into 1/4.

scoray [572]
The first thing you should do for this case is to graph the data you have in the statement to see the relationship between grapes and blueberries.
 The function represented by the table is
 y = 0.25x
 Then, as Mandie is making 15 glasses of fruit salad, we have:
 y + x = 15
 We have two equations and two unknowns that we must solve.
 y = 0.25x
 y + x = 15
 Resolving
 For x: 
 0.25x + x = 15
 1.25x = 15
 x = 15 / 1.25 = 12
 For y: 
 y = 0.25x = 0.25 (12) = 3
 Answer
 The ratio of grapes to blueberries she should use is 12: 3
