<u>I'm very sorry but i don't know the answer to this queshtion</u>
Since the sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes must be 100%, we can deduce the following:
- Cooking in under 20 minutes: 10%
- Cooking between 20 and 30 minutes: 85%
- Cooking in more than 30 minutes: 5%
In fact, the probabilities of cooking in less than 20 or more than 30 sum up to 15%, which means that the remaining outcome (i.e. cooking time between 20 and 30) must complete this probability to 15, and in fact 15+85=100.
That being said, all three answers are simply a combination of these three scenarios: let C be the cooking time, for aesthetic reasons:
I'll do problem 1 to get you started.
The answer to problem 1 is <u>3400 miles</u>
============================================================
Explanation for problem 1:
We're asked to find the perimeter, which is the total distance around the exterior or outside. In other words, we need to add up the four side lengths of this quadrilateral.
We'll need the distance formula to find the lengths of the slanted sides AB and BC
----------------------------------------
Let's first find the length of segment AB
A = (x1,y1) = (0,0)
B = (x2,y2) = (400,300)
d = Length of AB
The distance from A to B is 500 miles. This is the same as saying segment AB is 500 miles long.
----------------------------------------
Now find the length of segment BC
B = (x1,y1) = (400,300)
C = (x2,y2) = (-800,800)
d = length of BC
----------------------------------------
The length of CD is fairly easy to find without needing the distance formula. This is because it is a vertical line. We subtract the y coordinates of C and D to get 800-0 = 800. So CD is 800 miles long.
Segment DA is a similar story. But we subtract the x coordinates. This only works for horizontal lines. DA is 800 miles long because |-800-0| = 800. Absolute value is used to make sure the distance is never negative.
----------------------------------------
To summarize everything so far, we found these four side lengths
- AB = 500
- BC = 1300
- CD = 800
- DA = 800
The perimeter is going to be the sum of those four sides, leading to...
perimeter = sum of sides
perimeter = AB+BC+CD+DA
perimeter = 500+1300+800+800
perimeter = 3400 miles
This is the total distance traveled if you started at city A, went to B, then to C, then to D, and then finally went back to A.
