A raft was sent away from point A downstream. A patrol-boat left A 5 hour and 20 min later and caught up with the raft 20 km away from point A. What was the speed of the raft if the speed of the patrol-boat was 12 km/hour?

solve using a system of equations. will mark brainliest for correct answer and working

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 6/7 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

t - time spent by boat, s - speed of the raft

time  = distance / speed

Equations:

t = 20 / 12t + 5 h 20 m = 20 / s

Time the patrol-boat spent:

t = 20/12 = 5/3 h

Time the raft spent:

5 h 20 min + t = 5 1/3  + 5/3 =16/3 + 5/3 =21/3 =7 hours

The speed of the raft:

7 = 20/ss = 20/7s = 2 6/7 km/h

Justin traveled 70 miles from Boston to Hyannis in 1 hr and 45 minutes. He then traveled 10 more miles from Hyannis to Dennisport in 30 minutes.

What was Justin’s average speed on his was from Hyannis to Dennisport?

What was Justin’s average speed on his trip from Boston to Dennisport?

Answers

40mph you will thank me later〖〗Fonts for iPhone & Android - www.fontskeyboard.com/share

Justin’s average speed on his was from Hyannis to Dennisport will be [tex]20[/tex] miles per hour and average speed on his trip from Boston to Dennisport will be [tex]35\frac{5}{9}[/tex] miles per hour.

What is average speed ?

Average speed is s the total distance traveled by the object in a particular time interval.

Average speed [tex]=\frac{Total\ Distance}{Total\ Time}[/tex]

We have,

Distance from Boston to Hyannis [tex]=70[/tex] miles

Time from Boston to Hyannis [tex]=1\ hr\ and \ 45\ minutes = 105\ minutes[/tex]

Distance from Hyannis to Dennisport [tex]=10[/tex] miles

Time from Hyannis to Dennisport [tex]=30[/tex] minutes

So,

Total distance travelled [tex]=70+10=80[/tex] miles

Total time taken [tex]=105+30=135\ minutes[/tex]

                             [tex]= \frac{135}{60} \ hours= \frac{9}{4}\ hours[/tex]

So,

Average speed on his was from Hyannis to Dennisport [tex]= \frac{10}{\frac{30}{60} }[/tex]

                                                                                            [tex]=\frac{60}{3}=20[/tex] miles per hour

And,

Average speed on his trip from Boston to Dennisport [tex]=\frac{80}{\frac{9}{4} }[/tex]

                                                                                          [tex]=35\frac{5}{9}[/tex] miles per hour

Hence, we can say that Justin’s average speed on his was from Hyannis to Dennisport will be [tex]2[/tex]miles per hour and average speed on his trip from Boston to Dennisport will be [tex]35\frac{5}{9}[/tex] miles per hour.

Answers

Divide 296 by 16 you get 18.5 then add the 5.75 to get 24.25
So the answer is 24.25

The regular price of a ticket to the game will be $24.25  based on the given data.

What is a number system?

The number system is a way to represent or express numbers.

A decimal number is a very common number that we use frequently.

Since the decimal number system employs ten digits from 0 to 9, it has a base of 10.

As per the given,

Total paid = $296

Number of tickets = 16

Cost per tickets = 296/16 = $18.5

This cost excludes the $5.75 saved due to the group.

Original price = $18.5 + $5.75 = $24.25

Hence "The regular price of a ticket to the game will be $24.25  based on the given data".

In a simple random sample of 120 women and 150 men from
a population of 150,000, 25% of the women and 37% of the men
are smokers. Suppose you are interested in comparing the
proportion of smokers by sex, compute the estimated standard
error.

Answers

From the information given, and applying the formula, it is found that the standard error of the difference in proportion of smokers by sex is 0.0558.

The proportion and the standard error for each sample are given by:

[tex]p_W = 0.25, s_W = \sqrt{\frac{0.25(0.75)}{120}} = 0.0395[/tex]

[tex]p_M = 0.37, s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.37(0.63)}{150}} = 0.0394[/tex]

The standard error of the difference in proportions is the square root of the sum of the standard error for each sample squared, hence:

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_W^2 + s_M^2} = \sqrt{0.0395^2 + 0.0394^2} = 0.0558[/tex]

Hence, the standard error is of 0.0558.

so, they alone are 26×26×26 = 26³ = 17,576

then we have the three number positions.

each has 10 options.

so, they are 10×10×10 = 10³ = 1000

and both combined are

26³×10³ = 17,576,000 different number plates

The number of different license plate numbers are available to the state's Department of Motor Vehicles is 17,575,000.

What is fundamental counting principle?

The fundamental counting principle or basic principle of counting is a method or a rule used to calculate the total number of outcomes when two or more events are occurring together.

This principle states that the total number of outcomes of two or more independent events is the product of the number of outcomes of each individual event.

For each letter position there are 26 choices, and each of these 26 choices can be combined with the next 26 choices.

so, they alone are 26×26×26 = 26³ = 17,576

then we have the three number positions, each has 10 options.

so, they are 10×10×10 = 10³ = 1000

and both combined are;

26³×10³ = 17,576,000 different number plates.

Cancel both the 5 in numerator and denominator

All internal angles of a triangle must add up to 180°. So the angles of the bottom triangle is 60° each. As you can see, there's a right triangle on the right side and a right angle is 90°. So you just have to subtract 90° and 60° to get the angle of the missing angle which is 30°

Answer:

[tex](x-1)^2(x+3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For factorization the given expression you can use the Ruffini's rule.

First find the divisors of the independent term (these are the possible rational roots), in the given polynomial the independent term is [tex]3[/tex].

[tex]3 = \{\pm1,\pm3\}[/tex]

Now replace each number in the polynomial

[tex]P(1) = 1^3 + 1^2 - 5(1) + 3 = 0[/tex]

If the result is equal to 0 that's meaning that is a possible root of the polynomial. Then for know if is a root you have to divide the polynomial by [tex](x - \text{possible root})[/tex].

[tex](x^3 + x^2 -5x+3 )/ (x-1)[/tex]

In the first row are the coefficients of the given polynomial.

In the second row are the product between the coefficients and the independent term of the [tex]x-1[/tex].

The third row are the coefficients of the quotient polynomial (except the last that is the remainder).

[tex]\qquad 1\qquad 1\qquad-5\qquad \quad3\\1\qquad\qquad1\qquad \quad 2\qquad-3\\-------------\\ 0 \ \ \quad1 \qquad 2 \qquad -3 \qquad \quad 0[/tex]

Because the last term is the remainder and it's 0 you can factorizate [tex](x-1)[/tex] and the quotient polynomial is equal to

[tex]x^2 + 2x -3[/tex]

So our current expression is [tex](x-1)(x^2 + 2x -3)[/tex], however you can factorizate the quotient polynomial in:

[tex]x^2 +sx +rx +rs = x^2 + 3x -x + 3(-1) = (x + 3)(x -1)[/tex]

So the last expression is:

[tex](x-1)(x+3)(x-1) = (x-1)^2(x+3)[/tex]
