Crawling Crayfish!
Big Claw, the crayfish, challenged Flicker to a 60 em race. Since Big Claw is much
larger, he offered to give Flicker a 10 cm head start Flicker agreed and the race
began. After 5 seconds, Big Claw had crawled 6 cm and Flicker had crawled 4 cm.
If they continue at this rate, who do you predict will win the race? justify your
prediction
How many seconds have elapsed when Big Claw and Flicker are tied?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Crayfish, 25 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of race is 60 cm

Flicker gets a 10 cm head-start

Cray fish covers 6 cm in 5 s i.e. its speed is

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5}=1.2\ cm/s[/tex]

Flicker covers 4 cm in 5 s, its speed is

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{4}{5}=0.8\ cm/s[/tex]

Time taken by Cray fish to cover the race is

[tex]\Rightarrow t_1=\dfrac{60}{1.2}\\\\\Rightarrow t_1=50\ s[/tex]

Time taken by flicker to cover race with 10 cm head start

[tex]\Rightarrow t_2=\dfrac{60-10}{0.8}\\\\\Rightarrow t_2=62.5\ s[/tex]

Time taken by crayfish is less. Hence, crayfish wins the race

When they both covers the same distance, they tied momentarily i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow 1.2t=10+0.8t\\\Rightarrow 0.4t=10\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{10}{0.4}\\\\\Rightarrow t=25\ s[/tex]

After 25 s, they tied the race.

Answers

Given:

The expression is:

[tex]25-10\div 2+3[/tex]

To find:

Part A: The expression using parentheses so that the expression equals 23.

Part B: The expression using parentheses so that the expression equals 3.

Solution:

Part A:

In option A,

[tex](25-10)\div 2+3=15\div 2+3[/tex]

[tex](25-10)\div 2+3=7.5+3[/tex]                       [Using BODMAS]

[tex](25-10)\div 2+3=10.5[/tex]

In option B,

[tex]25-10\div (2+3)=25-10\div 5[/tex]

[tex]25-10\div (2+3)=25-2[/tex]                      [Using BODMAS]

[tex]25-10\div (2+3)=23[/tex]

In option C,

[tex](25-10)\div (2+3)=15\div 5[/tex]

[tex](25-10)\div (2+3)=3[/tex]

In option D,

[tex]25-(10\div 2)+3=25-5+3[/tex]

[tex]25-(10\div 2)+3=28-5[/tex]                     [Using BODMAS]

[tex]25-(10\div 2)+3=23[/tex]

After the calculation, we have [tex]25-10\div (2+3)=23[/tex] and [tex]25-(10\div 2)+3=23[/tex].

Therefore, the correct options are B and D.

Part B: From part A, it is clear that

[tex](25-10)\div (2+3)=3[/tex]

The altitude of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1.5 1.5 centimeters/minute while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 1.5 1.5 square centimeters/minute. At what rate is the base of the triangle changing when the altitude is 8 8 centimeters and the area is 88 88 square centimeters

Answers

Answer:

The base reduces at 3.75cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

[tex]h \to altitude[/tex]

[tex]b \to base[/tex]

[tex]A \to Area[/tex]

So:

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5cm/min[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 1.5^2cm/min[/tex]

The area of a triangle is:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

Calculate b when [tex]A =88cm^2; h =8cm[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

[tex]88=\frac{1}{2} * b * 8[/tex]

[tex]88 =b * 4[/tex]

Solve for b

[tex]b = 88/4[/tex]

[tex]b = 22[/tex]

We have:

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

Differentiate with respect to time

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} =\frac{1}{2}(h\frac{db}{dt} + b\frac{dh}{dt})[/tex]

Substitute the following values in the above equation

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5cm/min[/tex]        [tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 1.5^2cm/min[/tex]      [tex]b = 22[/tex]     [tex]h = 8[/tex]

[tex]1.5 = \frac{1}{2}(8 * \frac{db}{dt} + 22 * 1.5)[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex]3 = 8 * \frac{db}{dt} + 22 * 1.5[/tex]

[tex]3 = 8 * \frac{db}{dt} + 33[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]8 * \frac{db}{dt} = 3 -33[/tex]

[tex]8 * \frac{db}{dt} = -30[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8

[tex]\frac{db}{dt} = -\frac{30}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{db}{dt} = -3.75[/tex]

Which equation shows the point-slope form of the line that passes through (3, 2) and has a slope of 1/3
O y + 2 =1/3(x + 3)
O y-2=1/3(x-3)
O y + 3 = 1/3(x+ 2)
O y-3= 1/3(x-2)

Answers

Answer:

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Plug in the slope:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)

Plug in the given point:

y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

So, the correct answer is y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

A technical machinist is asked to build a cubical steel tank that will hold of water. Calculate in meters the smallest possible inside length of the tank. Round your answer to the nearest .

Answers

Answer:

The smallest possible length is 0.83m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Volume = 565L[/tex]

Required

The smallest length of the tank

Since the tank is cubical, then the volume is:

[tex]Volume = Length^3[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]565L= Length^3[/tex]

Express as [tex]m^3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{565m^3}{1000} = Length^3[/tex]

[tex]0.565m^3 = Length^3[/tex]

Take cube roots of both sides

[tex]0.8267m = Length[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]Length = 0.8267m[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Length = 0.83m[/tex]

Prove the formula that:
((∃x)(F(x)∧S(x))→(∀y)(M(y)→W(y)))∧((∃y)(M(y)∧¬W(y)))
⇒(∀x)(F(x)→¬S(x))

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [∀x(L(x) → A(x))] →

[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

To prove, we shall follow a proof by contradiction. We shall include the negation of the conclusion for

arguments. Since with just premise, deriving the conclusion is not possible, we have chosen this proof

technique.

Consider ∀x(L(x) → A(x)) ∧ ¬[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

We need to show that the above expression is unsatisfiable (False).

¬[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

∃x¬((L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y))) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))

∃x((L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y))) ∧ ¬(∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y))))

E.I with respect to x,

(L(a) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(a, y))) ∧ ¬(∃y(A(y) ∧ H(a, y))), for some a

(L(a) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(a, y))) ∧ (∀y(¬A(y) ∧ ¬H(a, y)))

E.I with respect to y,

(L(a) ∧ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b))) ∧ (∀y(¬A(y) ∧ ¬H(a, y))), for some b

U.I with respect to y,

(L(a) ∧ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b)) ∧ (¬A(b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))), for any b

Since P ∧ Q is P, drop L(a) from the above expression.

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b)) ∧ (¬A(b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))), for any b

Apply distribution

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬A(b)) ∨ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))

Note: P ∧ ¬P is false. P ∧ f alse is P. Therefore, the above expression is simplified to

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬A(b))

U.I of ∀x(L(x) → A(x)) gives L(b) → A(b). The contrapositive of this is ¬A(b) → ¬L(b). Replace

¬A(b) in the above expression with ¬L(b). Thus, we get,

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬L(b)), this is again false.

This shows that our assumption that the conclusion is false is wrong. Therefore, the conclusion follows

from the premise.

Troy has already spent 2 minutes on the phone, and he expect to spend 3 more minutes with every phone call he routes. In all How many phone calls dose troy have to route to spend a total of 32 minutes on the phone?

Answers

10 phone called. Since he has already spent 2 minutes in the phone, we can subtract 2 from 32 making it 30. He spends 3 minutes per call, so if you divide 30/3, you get 10.

To check. 3 mins • 10 calls is 30 mins total. Adding the 2 that he already spent, that’s 32 minutes.

the answer is b. if you look at the line it intercepts with x at the point -8. and if you look at where it intercepts with y it’s at -2.

Answer:

Your answer would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

So right away you can get rid of a and d since they are positive numbers, there is no positive numbers in the graph were the line is.

So we know that the y-intercept is -2 (as you can see the line pass through (0,-2))

And we know the y intercept is -8 (since the line pass through (-8,0))

so you are left with b and c, c is incorrect because the -2 goes through the y-intercept not the x.

The right choice is b, it states that the x-intercept -8 pass through the line, the y-intercept is -2

When Ximena commutes to work, the amount of time it takes her to arrive is normally distributed with a mean of 38 minutes and a standard deviation of 4.5 minutes. Using the empirical rule, determine the interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times.

Answers

Answer:

The interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times is between 33.5 and 42.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 38 minutes, standard deviation of 4.5 minutes.

Determine the interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times.

Within 1 standard deviation of the mean. So

38 - 4.5 = 33.5 minutes

38 + 4.5 = 42.5 minutes.

The interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times is between 33.5 and 42.5 minutes.
