Tom and Carl start 200 miles apart, running towards each other. Tom runs 5 miles per hour faster than Carl. If they meet after 10 hours, how fast are they running?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.5 mph and 7.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom's speed = xCarl's speed = y

We have:

x = y + 5(x + y)*10 = 200

Substitute x and solve for y:

(y + y + 5)*10 = 2002y + 5 = 202y = 15y = 7.5

Find x:

x = 7.5 + 5 = 12.5

Tom's speed is 12.5 mph

Carl's speed is 7.5 mph

Answer 2
Toms speed be a and Carl's speed be b

Now

a=b+510(a+b)=200

From eq(2)

a+b=20

From eq(1)

a-b=5

Adding these recent two

2a=25a=12.5mph

Putting in eq(1)

b=a-5b=12.5-5b=7.5mph

The value of a car will “depreciate” over time. For example, a car that was worth $24 000 when it was new, is being sold for $13 500 three years later. Determine the annual depreciation rate on this car. Express your final answer as a percent, rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:

13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000

13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000

X = 21.14%

Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Number of contestants who could be first = 12 (all 12 contestants)

Number of contestants who could be second = 11 (all 12 contestants - first)

Number of contestants who could be third = 10 (all 12 contestants - first and second )

The number of ways prices can be given :

(1st * 2nd * 3rd) = 12 * 11 * 10 = 1320 ways

To the nearest 100th feet, find the volume of a hollow cylinder having inner radius =150 in, outer radius= 170 in and the height = 220 in

Answers

Answer:

R1 = 150 in = 12.5 ft

R2 = 170 in = 14.167 ft

H = 220 in = 18.333 ft

Volume of solid cylinder = Pi * R^2 * H

So the volume of a hollow cylinder must be V = Pi * H * (R2^2 - R1^2)

V = 3.142 * 18.33 * (14.17^2 - 12.5^2) = 2565 ft^3

garden is 16 metres and each lane is 3 metres
wide. Each lane is to be resurfaced. Calculate
the area to be resurfaced. Answer in square
metres to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area to be resurfaced is the area of the

whole circle including garden and lanes minus  

the area of the garden.

 

Area of a circle is (pi)r2

 

radius of garden is (1/2)diameter = 8 m

Garden area:  (pi)82 = 64(pi) m2

 

Diameter of garden plus traffic lanes is

16 + 2(6) because we add 6 m to both sides

of the diameter of the garden.

Full diameter = 16+12 = 28 m

Full radius = 28/2 = 14 m

Full area:  (pi)142 = 196(pi) m2

 

Area to be resurfaced:

196(pi) - 64(pi) = 132(pi) m2  ≅ 415 m2

6. A boy pushes his little brother in a box with a force of 500 N for 324 m How much work is this if the force of
friction acting on the sliding box is (a) 100 N (6) 250. N?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 129600 J

(b) 81000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.

Force, F = 500 N

distance, d = 324 m

(a) friction force, f = 100 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) x d

W = (500 - 100) x 324

W = 129600 J

(b) Friction, f = 250 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) d

W = (500 - 250) x 324

W = 81000 J

An office manager booked 55 airline tickets. He booked 6 more tickets on Airline A than Airline B. On Airline C, he booked 5 more than twice as many tickets as on Airline B. How many tickets did he book on each Airline?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

A: 17B: 11C: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let a, b, c represent tickets booked on airlines A, B, C, respectively, then we have ...

  a + b + c = 55

  a - b = 6

  -2b + c = 5

Using the last two equations to write expressions for a and c, we have ...

  a = b +6

  c = 5 +2b

These can be substituted into the first equation to give ...

  (b +6) +b +(5 +2b) = 55

  4b +11 = 55

  4b = 44

  b = 11

  a = b+6 = 17

  c = 5 +2b = 27

He booked 17 tickets on Airline A, 11 tickets on Airline B, and 27 tickets on Airline C.

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

_____

Additional comment

This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

he radioactive element​ carbon-14 has a​ half-life of 5750 years. A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 ​% of their​ carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were​ discovered?

Answers

Answer:

The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were​ discovered.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of the element:

The amount of the element after t years is given by the following equation, considering the decay rate proportional to the amount present:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The radioactive element​ carbon-14 has a​ half-life of 5750 years.

This means that [tex]A(5750) = 0.5A(0)[/tex], and we use this to find k. So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-5750k}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-5750k} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-5750k}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]-5750k = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{5750}[/tex]

[tex]k = 0.00012054733[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012054733t}[/tex]

A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 ​% of their​ carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were​ discovered?

Had 100 - 77.8 = 22.2% remaining, so this is t for which:

[tex]A(t) = 0.222A(0)[/tex]

Then

[tex]0.222A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.00012054733t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.00012054733t} = 0.222[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.00012054733t}} = \ln{0.222}[/tex]

[tex]-0.00012054733t = \ln{0.222}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.222}}{0.00012054733}[/tex]

[tex]t = 12485[/tex]

The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were​ discovered.

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

n = (1.645² * 0.58 * 0.42) / 0.03²

Answers

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Rational Roots Test, we can say that the potential rational roots are

± (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90).

Unfortunately, there doesn't really seem to be an easy way to figure out which numbers are actually roots outside of guess and check. Therefore, to solve this, we'll have to go through numbers until we hit something.

To make the process faster, I wrote a Python script as follows:

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90]

negative_numbers = [i * (-1) for i in numbers]

numbers = numbers + negative_numbers

for i in numbers:

   

   if (i**3 - 10*(i**2) + 9*i-90) == 0:

       print(i)

The result comes out as 10, meaning that 10 is our only rational root. Using the Factor Theorem, we can say that because 10 is a root, (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial. Using synthetic division, we can divide (x-10) from the polynomial to get

10 |   1     -10     9      -90

    |          10     0       90

    _________________

        1       0     9        0

Therefore, we can say that

(x³-10x²+9x-90)/(x-10) = (x²+0x+9), so

x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9)

As the only solution to x²+9=0 contains imaginary numbers, x=10 is the only solution to x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9) = 0

P(debit card ) = 0.4  

P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2  

P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9  

P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )  

= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4  

= 0.57  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)  

= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57  

= 0.105
