Wendy is taking a cab ride. The ride costs $1.20 for the first 0.5 km, and $0.90 for each additional 0.5 km. If the trip costs $12.00, how many kilometres was the cab ride?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6.5 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 12 - 1.20 for the first 0.5 km

We are left with 10.8

Divide 10.8 by 0.90 to find the other 0.5 km

This gives you 12, which means it was 6 km

The total cab ride was 6.5 km

Answer 2

Answer:

6.5 km

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract 1.2 from 12, you get 10.8

now you are going to divide 10.8 by .90, you get 12. Now this may seem confusing but now u have do divided it by .5 because you aren't paying for every 1 km you are paying fro every .5 km. So now u have 6 km but no add that extra .5 from earlier and you get 6.5 km.

12.00-1.2=10.8 this is .5 km               10.8 divided by .9 =12

                                                           12 divided by .5=6

                                      .5 km + 6 km = 6.5

In a group of 42 students, 9 study both Art and Biology.
10 study Biology but not Art.
7 study neither subject.
Given that a randomly selected student studies Art, what is the probability the student studies Art and Biology?

Answers

Answer:

The probability the student studies Art and Biology is 0.2143.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

A = a students studies Art

B = a students studies Biology

The information provided is:

N = 42

n (A ∩ B) = 9

n (A' ∩ B) = 10

n (A' ∩ B') = 7

Then the number of students who study Art but not Biology is:

n (A ∩ B') = N - n (A ∩ B) - n (A' ∩ B) - n (A' ∩ B')

               [tex]=42-10-7-9\\\\=16[/tex]

The number of students who study Art but not Biology is 16.

Compute the probability the student studies Art and Biology as follows:

[tex]P(A\cap B)=\frac{n (A\cap B)}{N}[/tex]

               [tex]=\frac{9}{42}\\\\=\frac{3}{14}\\\\=0.2143[/tex]

Thus, the probability the student studies Art and Biology is 0.2143.

Dos motos, A y B, toman la salida en una carrera de 90 km. La moto A realiza el recorrido con una velocidad media inferior en 20 km/h a la de la moto B, con lo que llega a la meta 3 minutos después que B. Calcula la velocidad de cada moto.

Answers

Answer:

motorcycle A: 180 km/h

motorcycle B: 200 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we need to write a system of equations for A and B, using the equation:

distance = speed * time

The speed of A is 20 less than the speed of B, so:

speedA = speedB - 20

And the time A traveled is 3 minutes (0.05 hours) more than B's time, so:

timeA = timeB + 0.05

Then, using the distance equation, we have that:

distanceB = speedB * timeB

90 = speedB * timeB

distanceA = speedA * timeA

90 = (speedB - 20) * (timeB + 0.05)

90 = speedB * timeB + 0.05 * speedB - 20*timeB - 1

90 = 90 + 0.05 * speedB - 20*timeB - 1

20*timeB = 0.05 * speedB - 1

timeB = (speedB - 20)/400

using this timeB in the distance equation, we have:

90 = speedB * (speedB - 20)/400

90 * 400 = speedB^2 - 20*speedB

speedB^2 - 20*speedB - 36000 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation, we have speedB = 200 km/h

And the speedA is:

speedA = speedB - 20 = 200 - 20 = 180 km/h

14.  Each leg is   [tex]21\sqrt{2}[/tex]  units long.

15 (a). The longer leg is [tex]7\sqrt{3}[/tex]  units long

15 (b). The hypotenuse is [tex]14[/tex] units long

=====================================================

Explanations:

For a 45 degree right triangle, aka 45-45-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is equal to sqrt(2) times the short leg. Algebraically we can say

[tex]y = x\sqrt{2}[/tex] where x is the leg and y is the hypotenuse

Let's solve for x

[tex]y = x\sqrt{2}\\\\x\sqrt{2} = y\\\\x = \frac{y}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2}} \ \text{rationalizing denominator}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\[/tex]

Now plug in the given hypotenuse y = 42, this leads to,

[tex]x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42}{2}\sqrt{2}\\\\x = 21\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex]

---------------------------

For a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is double that of the short leg. So the hypotenuse is 2*7 = 14.

The longer leg is equal to sqrt(3) times the short leg. The longer leg is [tex]7\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Explain why a sample of 30 dentists from a large city taken to estimate the median income of all residents of that large city is not representative

Answers

Answer: Because all individuals in the sample have the same job, so the sample is biased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ignoring the fact that 30 is a small sample for a large city, we already know that all the people in the sample has the same profession.

Now, we can expect that two dentists win have around the same income, but not all the residents in the city are dentists

A lot of them work in fast food, others may be lawyers, others may be freelancers.

We have a lot of jobs where the income does not coincide with the average income of a dentist, so with the sample of 30 dentists we are not actually representing all the other possible jobs that there are in the city.

If we want a sample that represents the income of all the residents, we should have a random sample (so the sample is not biased, like in this case).

Harry is half his brother's age. His brother is 28 years younger than their Aunt Jenny, who is five years older than Harry and his brother's dad. their dad is 31 years old. how old is Harry?

Answers

Answer:

4 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Harry = H

Brother = B

Aunty = A

Dad = B

H = ½ B

B = A - 28

A = D + 5

D = 31

A = 31 + 5 = 36

B = 36 -28 = 8 years old

H = ½ . 8 = 4 years old

Two numbers add to 200. The first is 20 less than the second. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the first number x.

We can write an equation representing the problem using x:

x+x+20=200 (because the second number is 20 more than the first, or x)

Combine like terms: 2x+20=200

Subtract 20 from each side of the equation: 2x=180

Divide by 2: x=90

The first number is 90, the second number is 110.

-2x - y = 5​
