Marco can paddle his canoe at a rate of 6 miles per hour on unmoving water. However, today Marco is canoeing down (with the current), and then back up (against the current), a river that's moving at a rate of 1 mile per hour, so the current affects his rate of speed. If it takes Marco 6 total hours to go x miles downstream and then return to his starting point, how far downstream does he travel?
A) 1.25 miles
B) 2.5 miles
C) 5 miles
D) 17.5 miles

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

S = v1 t1 = 7 t1    traveling downstream

S = v2 t2 = 5 t2    traveling upstream

7 t1 = 5 t2

7 (6 - t2) = 5 t2     since t1 + t2 = 6

42 - 7 t2 = 5 t2

t2 = 42 / 12 = 3.5 hrs so t1 = 2.5 hrs

S = 7 t1 = 7 * 2.5 = 17.5 mi

Also, S = 5 t2 = 5 * 3.5 = 17.5 mi

Answer:

5/6 and 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to add and subtract fractions, you have to first find a common denominator for both fractions. So, for your first question 1/3 + 1/2, your common denominator would be 6 because it is the least common multiple. So, multiply the top and bottom of 1/3 by 2 to get 2/6 and multiply the top and bottom of 1/2 by 3 in order to get 3/6. Next add your products together 2/6 + 3/6 but only add the numerator, not the denominator. Finally you get, 2/6 + 3/6 = 5/6.

For your second equation, you basically do the same thing, but for the last part, you subtract instead. First, find the least common multiple (common denominator) for 2 and 4, which is 4. Since, 3/4 already has a denominator of 4, you don't have to change that fraction at all, just change 1/2. Next multiply the top and the bottom of 1/2 by 2 to get 2/4. Finally, subtract 3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4.

Answer:

1. 5/6

2. 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1/3 + 1/2

Step 1. Find a common denominator for both fractions (by taking the denominator and finding their least common multiple)

Answer:

3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,…

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10,…

The least common multiple will be 6

So the new denominator for both fractions is 6

Step 2. Rewrite the fractions using the same denominator

Answer:

1/3 = ?/6 1/2 = ?/6

1/3 = 2/6 1/2 = 3/6

(To get the numerator of the fraction, note that to get the denominator by a number being multiplied by that number, that same number as to be multiplied to the numerator)

Step 3. Add (2/6 + 3/6)

Answer:

2/6 + 3/6 = 5/6

(Denominator stays the same when subtracting or adding)

——————————————————-

2. 3/4 - 1/2

Step 1. Find a common denominator for both fractions (by taking the denominator and finding their least common multiple)

Answer:

2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10,…

4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20,…

The least common multiple will be 4

So the new denominator for both fractions is 4

Step 2. Rewrite the fractions using the same denominator

Answer:

3/4 = ?/4 1/2 = ?/4

3/4 = 3/4 1/2 = 2/4

(To get the numerator of the fraction, note that to get the denominator by a number being multiplied by that number, that same number as to be multiplied to the numerator)

Step 3. Subtract (3/4 - 2/4)

Answer:

3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4

(Denominator stays the same when subtracting or adding)

The time I spend waiting for the bus on any given day has a distribution with mean 4 min- utes and variance off 0.5 minutes. What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)? You may assume that waiting times on different days are independent of each other. HINT: Is there a sum of random variables somewhere in here?

Answers

Answer:

0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

n instances of a normal variable:

For n instances of a normal variable, the mean is:

[tex]M = n\mu[/tex]

[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

Mean of 4 minutes, standard deviation of 0.5 minutes:

This means that [tex]\mu = 4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5}[/tex]

30 days:

[tex]M = 30(4) = 120[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{0.5}\sqrt{30} = \sqrt{0.5*30} = \sqrt{15}[/tex]

What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)?

2 hours and 10 minutes is 2*60 + 10 = 130 minutes, so this probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 130. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

In this context, due to the 30 instances of the normal variable:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - M}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{130 - 120}{\sqrt{15}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9951.

1 - 0.9951 = 0.0049

0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.

According to the graph of the rational function y equals 4 over the quantity x squared minus 4 end quantity which of the following statements is/are true? The function is even. The function is increasing for all values in the domain. There is a horizontal asymptote along the x-axis. I only I and II only I and III only I, II, and III

Answers

Using function concepts, it is found that the correct options are:

I and III only

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

The function is:

[tex]y = \frac{4}{x^2 - 4}[/tex]

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

Statement 1:

A function is even if: [tex]f(x) = f(-x)[/tex]

We have that:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{4}{x^2 - 4}[/tex]

[tex]f(-x) = \frac{4}{(-x)^2 - 4} = \frac{4}{x^2 - 4} = f(x)[/tex]

Since [tex]f(x) = f(-x)[/tex], the function is even, and the statement is true.

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

Statement 2:

The function increases when: [tex]f^{\prime}(x) > 0[/tex]

The derivative is:

[tex]f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{-8x}{(x^2-4)^2}[/tex]

The denominator is always positive, but the numerator can be both positive/negative, which means that when the numerator is negative(x > 0), the derivative will be negative, thus the function will decrease and the statement is false.

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

Statement 3:

A horizontal asymptote is given by:

[tex]y = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x)[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]y = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{4}{x^2 - 4} = \frac{4}{\infty - 4} = \frac{4}{\infty} = 0[/tex]

y = 0 is the x-axis, thus, the statement is true, and the correct option is:

I and III only
