Bartolo is running a race. He determines that if he runs at an average speed of 15 feet/second, he can finish the race in 6 seconds. If he runs at an average speed of 18 feet/second, he can finish the race in 5 seconds. Which equation represents this inverse variation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Equation that represents these inverse variation is:

Speed is inversely proportional to Time

Speed (S) ∝ 1/ Time(T)

And the constant of proportionality = Distance(D)

Therefore, Speed = Distance/ Time

Step-by-step explanation:

For an inverse variation, one element increases while the other element decreases. In this question, the element or variable that increases is the speed while the element or variable that decreases is the time.

We can see from the question that

a) If he runs at an average speed of 15 feet/second, he can finish the race in 6 seconds.

b) If he runs at an average speed of 18 feet/second, he can finish the race in 5 seconds

Speed is inversely proportional to Time because the higher the speed, the lesser the time it takes to go or move in a particular direction or to go in a particular distance.

Hence, the Equation that represents these inverse variation is:

Speed is inversely proportional to Time

Speed (S) ∝ 1/ Time(T)

For inverse variation or proportionality, a constant is always needed

And the constant of variation or proportionality = Distance(D)

Therefore, Speed = Distance/ Time

many graduate schools require applicants to take a certain test those taking the test received three scores a verbal reasoning score a quantitative reasoning score and an analytical writing score in 2013 the average quantitative reasoning score exceeded the average verbal reasoning score by 1.1 points and the average verbal reasoning score exceeded the analytical writing score by 143.2 points the sum of the three average scores was 315.1 what was the average score for each category

Answers

Answer:

The average verbal reasoning score: 152.4

The average quantitative reasoning score: 153.5

The analytical writing score: 9.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the average verbal reasoning score, B the average quantitative reasoning score and C the analytical writing score.

Then, if the average quantitative reasoning score exceeded the average verbal reasoning score by 1.1 points, we can write the following equation:

B = A + 1.1     (eq. 1)

At the same way, if the average verbal reasoning score exceeded the analytical writing score by 143.2 points, we can write the following equation:

A = C + 143.2   or

C = A - 143.2          (eq. 2)

Finally, the sum of the three average scores was 315.1, so:

A + B + C = 315.1              (eq. 3)

Then, replacing equation 1 and 2 in equation 3:

A + B + C = 315.1

A + (A + 1.1) + (A - 143.1) = 315.1

Solving for A:

A + A + 1.1 + A - 143.2 = 315.1

3A = 315.1 - 1.1 + 143.2

3A = 457.2

A = 152.4

Replacing the value of A in equation 1 and 2:

B = A + 1.1 = 152.4 + 1.1 = 153.5

C = A - 143.2 = 152.4 - 143.2 = 9.2

So, the average score for each category is:

The average verbal reasoning score: 152.4

The average quantitative reasoning score: 153.5

The analytical writing score: 9.2

Evaluate for F when C= 20°.

At Lewisville University, they are looking into how often students
attend football games. Here are the results:
● 45% of students regularly attend football games
● Of those that attend football games regularly, 35% are first-year
students and 64% are upper-class students.
● Of those that do not attend football games, 25% are first-year
students and 34% are upper-class students
What is the approximate probability that a randomly selected person
will be attending the football game given they are an upper-class
student?

Answers

Answer:

60.63%

Step-by-step explanation:

Prob. of students who regularly attend = 45%

Prob. of students who don't attend = 55%

Upper Class Students who attend = 64 % of 45 %

= 0.64 × 0.45 × 100 = 28.8% = 0.288

Upper Class Students who don't attend = 34 % of 55% = 0.34 × 0.55 × 100 = 18.7% = 0.187

Total for Upper Class Students = 28.8% + 18.7% = 47.5% = 0.475

Probability that an Upper Class Student randomly selected will be attending = ( 0.288 / 0.475 ) × 100 = 0.6063 × 100 = 60.63%

Use a net to find the surface area of the right triangular prism shown below
(Please show/tell an explanation on how you got your answer) :

104 square feet

412 square feet

468 square feet

504 square feet

Answers

Answer:

468 square feet; Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the base of this triangular prism has dimensions 15 feet by 10 feet, so for starters let us compute the area of this base:

Area ⇒ 15 * 10 = 150 ft^2

Now the rectangular surface next to this base, has dimensions 9 feet by 10 feet, provided that 9 feet is a uniform height of the triangular prism:

Area ⇒ 9 * 10 = 90 ft^2

This third rectangle is provided with one dimensions, of 10 feet. If we were to imagine what part of the 3-d shape is is, it would in fact be the slanted top. To find the second dimension, you would imagine it to be 12 feet. Using that, the area of this rectangle is thus ⇒ 10 * 12 = 120 ft^2

Now the two triangles at the corners each have an area of ⇒ 1/2 * base * height = 1/2 * 12 * 9 = 6 * 9 = 54 ft^2, so they have a total area of ⇒ 108 ft^2

This means the surface area of the right, triangular prism is:

150 + 90 + 120 + 108 = Answer: 468 square feet

Step 1) Divide up the figure

In this figure, there is a triangle, a small rectangle, and two larger rectangles. The triangle is 6 in x 9 in, the small rectangle is 3 in x 18 in, one of the large rectangles (center) is 8 in x 14 in, and the other large rectangle (bottom) is 5 in x 9 in.

Step 2) Find the area of each shape in the figure

Triangle: A = 1/2 x 6 x 9 = 27

Small rectangle: A = 3 x 18 = 54

Large rectangle (center): A = 8 x 14 = 112

Large rectangle (bottom): A = 5 x 9 = 45

Step 3) Add the area of each shape together

A = 27 + 54 + 112 + 45 = 238 square inches

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

247 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Divided the diagram into a triangle and three rectangles.

The triangle is 6 in * 6 in = 36 square inches

1st rectangle is 4 in * 3 in = 12 square inches

2nd rectangle is 11 in * 14 in = 154 square inches

3rd rectangle is 9 in * 5 in = 45 square inches

Therefore, 36+12+154+45 = 247 square inches

Option C is the correct answer.

What is regression?

Regression is a statistical method used to analyze the relationship between two or more variables.

It helps to identify and quantify the relationship between the dependent variable (also called the response variable) and one or more independent variables (also called the explanatory variables or predictors).

We have,

Each point in the data set is near the regression line.

This is because the regression line is the line of best fit that minimizes the distance between the line and the actual data points.

While not all points will fall exactly on the line, the fact that they are all relatively close to the line indicates that the line is a good fit for the data.

Option A is not necessarily true for all data sets, and option B is an overgeneralization.

Option D is not necessarily a problem, as a regression line does not always have to pass through the origin.

Thus,

Each point in the data set is near the regression line.

Naruto is choosing between two venues that will deliver food to his house. With probability 1/3 he will choose Ramen Mania (R), and with probability 2/3 he will choose Sushi (S). If he chooses R, 15 minutes after making the call, the remaining time it takes the food to arrive is exponentially distributed with average 10 minutes. If he orders S, 10 minutes after making the call, the time it takes the food to arrive is exponentially distributed with an average of 12 minutes. Given that he has already waited 25 minutes after calling, and the food has not arrived, what is the probability that he ordered from R?

Answers

Answer:

39.10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The given timeout distributions are:

Exp (1/10), Exp (1/12)

The equation to use is the following:

F (x) = 1 - e ^ (- a / b); x> 0

So the probability is:

P (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes | R) = e ^ (- 10/10) = 0.3679

P (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes | S) = e ^ (- 12/15) = 0.2865

So:

P (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes) = (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes | R) * P (R) + (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes | S) * P (S)

Replacing:

P (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes) = 0.3679 * 1/3 + 0.2865 * 2/3 = 0.3136

However:

P (R | food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes) = (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes | R) * P (R) / P (food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes)

P (R | food has not arrived after waiting 25 minutes) = 0.3679 * 1/3 / 0.3136 = 0.3910

It means that the probability is 39.10%
