The distance from Tressa's home to school is 1\frac{1}{3} times the distance from Anton's home to school

From the question,

Tressa's home is 4/5 mile from school

and Anton's home is 3/5 mile from school.

To determine how many times the distance from Anton's home to school is the distance from Tressa's home to school, we will divide the distance from Tressa's home to school by the distance from Anton's home to school

That is, 4/5 mile ÷ 3/5 mile

∴ we get

\frac{4}{5} \div \frac{3}{5}

= \frac{4}{5} \times \frac{5}{3}

= \frac{4}{3}

=1 \frac{1}{3}

Hence, the distance from Tressa's home to school is 1\frac{1}{3} times the distance from Anton's home to school

omeli [17]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

X and Y are independent Gaussian (Normal) random Variables. X has mean 13.9 and variance 5.2; Y has mean 6.9 and variance 3.8. . (a) Calculate P( W> 10)

Answer:

P( W> 10) is 0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

X ⇒ N( 13.9, 5.2 )

Y ⇒ N( 6.9, 3.8 )

W = X - Y

Therefore

E(W) = E(X) - E(Y)

= 13.9 - 6.9 = 7

Var(W) = Var(X) + Var(Y) -2COV(X.Y)

[ COV(X,Y) = 0 because they are independent]

Var(W) = 5.2 + 3.8 + 0

= 9

Therefore

W ⇒ N( 7, 9 )

so

P( W > 10 )

= 1 - P( W ≤ 10 )

= 1 - P( W-7 /3   ≤   10-7 /3 )

= 1 - P( Z ≤ 1 )           [ Z = W-7 / 3 ⇒ N(0, 1)  ]

from Standard normal distribution table, P( Z ≤ 1 )  = 0.8413

so

1 - P( Z ≤ 1 )  = 1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587

Therefore P( W> 10) is 0.1587

Are these two claims equivalent, in conflict, or not comparable because they're talking about different things?
sukhopar [10]

These two claims about markup and margin are <u>equivalent</u> because they discuss differently the same issue.

<h3>What are markup and margin?</h3>

A markup is a profit percent added to the cost price to determine the selling price.  Thus, markup relates the percentage of profit to the cost price.

The profit margin relates the percentage of profit to the selling price.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Selling price = 100%

Profit margin = 25%

Cost price = 75% (100% - 25%)

Markup = 33% (25%/75% x 100)

Thus, these two claims about markup and margin are <u>equivalent</u>.

Drey makes $10 an hour plus $15 an hour for every hour of overtime. Overtime hours are any hours more than 40 hours for the week
gregori [183]
Part A:  W = 10x

Part B:  S = 400 + 15y

Part C:  490 = 400 +15y
              -400  -400
              90 = 15y
              6 = y,  so he worked a total of 46 hours.
