Eli was swimming upstream in a river and lost a plastic bottle at bridge A. He noticed the loss after swimming 10 minutes , so immediately started to swim downstream to catch it. He caught it at bridge B, which was 1 mile away from bridge A. What was the rate of water flow in miles per hour?

Answers

Answer 1

Using proportions, it is found that the rate of water flow was of 6 miles per hour.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the bottle flowed 1 mile in 10 minutes. How much does it flow in 1 hour = 60 minutes? The rule of three is given by:

1 mile - 10 minutes

x miles - 60 minutes

Applying cross multiplication:

10x = 60

x = 60/10

x = 6.

Hence, the rate of water flow was of 6 miles per hour.

I went to the store with $20. After buying all my groceries, I spent $15.87. How much money do I have left?

Answers

you would have 4.13 left

20-15.87=4.13

Answer:

The answer is $4.13

Step-by-step explanation:

It is easier to do this if we add two zeros at the end of 20 to make it 20.00 so the decimal places line up. Lets take it one place at a time. first is the hundreths, which is 0-7. This is not possible, so we borrow from the tenths, but the tenths is also a zero. The tenths zero has to borrow from the ones zero. Basically, the 2 in 20 becomes 1, and the zeros in the ones and tenths place become nines, and the last zero becomes 10. 10 minus 7 is 3, 9 minus 8 is 1, 9-5 is 4, and 1-1 is 0.

A food truck did a daily survey of customers to find their food preferences. The data is partially entered in the frequency table. Complete the table to analyze the data and answer the questions:


Likes hamburgers Does not like hamburgers Total
Likes burritos 38 77
Does not like burritos 95 128
Total 134 71


Part A: What percentage of the survey respondents do not like both hamburgers and burritos? (2 points)

Part B: What is the marginal relative frequency of all customers that like hamburgers? (3 points)

Part C: Use the conditional relative frequencies to determine which data point has strongest association of its two factors. Use complete sentences to explain your answer. (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

A:

18.5% 

B:

124 / 205

C:

75 / 113. 66.4% Strongest 

49 / 92. 53.2% Middle

38 / 81 46.9% Weakest

75  / 113 is the strongest because it has the highest percentage fore the  conditional relative frequencies. The others are weaker because they have as high of a percentage.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answers are shown below:

What is Conditional relative frequency?

A conditional relative frequency compares a frequency count to the marginal total that represents the condition of interest.

a) Out of 205 people, 38 like neither, hence:

Percentage= 38/ 205 *100= 18.54%

b) Out of the 205 participants, 205 - 81 = 124 like hamburgers, hence:

= 124 / 205

=0.6049

c)The table is, dis considering the totals:

49 - 43

75 - 38

Due to the higher total, the data that has the strongest association of its two factors is liking hamburgers and not liking burritos.

The scale drawing of Julio's kitchen would change the kitchen size

The actual area is 243 square feet

How to determine the actual area of Julio's kitchen?

The parameters are given as:

Length = 4.5 inchesWidth = 3.375 inches

Start by converting the dimensions to feet using the scale ratio

Actual length = 4.5 inches/ (1 inch/ 4 feet) = 18 feetActual width = 3.375 inches/ (1 inch/ 4 feet) = 13.5 feet

The area is then calculated as:

Actual Area = Actual length * Actual Width

This gives

Actual Area =18 feet * 13.5 feet

Evaluate the product

Actual Area = 243 square feet

Hence, the actual area is 243 square feet
