52mph, depending what unit you need the answer in you may have to use conversions

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

4/15 which is our fraction distance/time

our other fraction is 24/x (x is our variable to find our time)

Now we are doing the buultterfly method

set it up

now multiply 4*x= 4x

15*24=360

now divide 4x ÷ 4 to get our variable alone

do the same to the other side

4 ÷ 360= 90

so x= 90 which is our missing number

The probability that a civil servant own a car is 1/6,if two civil servants are selected at random.find the probability that

Elodia [21]

Answer:

The data we have is:

the probability that a civil servant own a car is 1/6

Two civil servants are selected at random.

a) The probability that each own a car.

Ok, here we have two events:

Person 1 haves a car.

Person 2 haves a car.

The probability of each of those events is the same, 1/6.

P1 = 1/6

P2 = 1/6

Now, the probability of both events happening at the same time is equal to the product of the individual probabilities.

P = P1*P2 = (1/6)*(1/6) = 1/36.

b) Only one has a car.

Suppose that Person 1 has the car and Person 2 has not a car.

The probability for person 1 is 1/6.

And for person 2, is the negation of having a car:

So if we have prob of having a car = 1/6

Then the probability of not having a car is = 1 - 1/6 = 5/6.

Then we have:

P1 = 1/6

P2 = 5/6.

The joint probability is:

P = P1*P2 = (1/6)*(5/6) = 5/36.

But we also have the case where person 1 does not have a car, and person 2 does have one, then we have a permutation, and the actual probability is two times the obtained above.

P = 2*(5/36) = 10/36

Exponential growth/decay problem 1

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a) growth

b) $500

c) 6% = 0.06

d) $f(x)=500(1.06)^x$

e) $595.51

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />

<u>Part (a)</u>

Exponential GROWTH, since interest is applied to the account each year.

<u>Part (b)</u>

Initial amount = $500

<u>Part (c)</u>

Growth factor = 6% = 0.06 (in decimal form)

<u>Part (d)</u>

General form of exponential growth function:

$f(x)=a(1+r)^x$

where:

a = initial amount
r = rate of growth (in decimal form)
x = time (in years)

Given:

a = 500
r = 0.06

$\implies f(x)=500(1+0.06)^x$

$\implies f(x)=500(1.06)^x$

<u>Part (e)</u>

when x = 3

$\begin{aligned}\implies f(3) & =500(1.06)^3\\ & = 595.51\: \sf(nearest\:hundredth)\end{aligned}$
