It will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> (time) to travel 1,171.1 miles (distance) at 0.013 meters per second (speed).

<h3>How are the hours determined?</h3>

The hours that it will take the snail to travel the distance is determined by first converting the miles into meters at 1 mile = 1,609.34 meters.

The speed per second is also converted into speed her hour.

The conversions use the mathematical operations of division and multiplication.

Time = distance/speed.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Total distance in miles = 1,171.1 miles

Total distance in meters = 1,884,698.07 meters (1,171.1 x 1609.34)

Speed = 0.013 meters per second

Speed in hours = 46.8 meters per hour (0.013 x 60 x 60)

The number of hours to cover the distance = Total Distance/Speed

= <u>40,271.33 hours </u>(1,884,698.07/46.8)

Thus, it will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> to cover a distance of 1,171.1 miles at a speed of 0.013 meters per second.

Komok [63]

Answer:

Minor earthquakes occurred in the country in the last​ year were<u> 2326</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In the last​ year, a total of 2727 earthquakes occurred in the country.

Of​ these, 85.3 % were minor tremors with magnitudes of 3.9 or less on the Richter scale.

Now, to find the minor earthquakes occured in the country last year.

<em>Total earthquakes occurred in the country = 2727.</em>

<em>The percent of minor earthquakes = 85.3%</em>.

Now, to get the number of minor earthquakes:

85.3% of 2727.

=\frac{85.3}{100} \times 2727.

=\frac{232613.1}{100}

=2326.131

<em>The number of minor earthquakes nearest whole number = 2326.</em>

Therefore, minor earthquakes occurred in the country in the last​ year were 2326.

You have two ways to drive home from school: Route A is usually quicker; Route B is
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

0.12 = 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this probability, we need to multiply the probability of getting route B, and the probability of getting home by 4 P.M if we choose route B.

If the probability of choosing route A is 60%, we have that the probability of choosing route B is 100% - 60% = 40%

Then, we have that the probability of getting home by 4 P.M. when choosing route B is 30%, so the final probability is:

P = 40% * 30% = 0.4 * 0.3 = 0.12 = 12%

Answer:

<u>Options 1 and 3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We should know that, the system of linear equations can be treated as matrices, i.e: we can modify or make any operations provide that we must apply the same operation for all terms of each equation.

Given:  the solution for the following system is (2,9)

Px + Qy = R  ⇒(1)

Tx + Uy = V  ⇒(2)

We will check which system of equation has the same solution.

<u>System A)</u>  Px + Qy = R

                  (P+T)x + (Q+U)y = R+V  ⇒(3)

So, By summing (1) and (2) we will get the equation (3)

So, system A has the same solution (2,9)

<u>System B)</u> Px + Qy = R

                 (P+2T)x + (Q+2U)y = R-2V  ⇒(4)

By multiplying equation (2) by 2 and add with equation (1), we will get:

 (P+2T)x + (Q+2U)y = R+2V

Which is not the same as equation (4)

So, system B has not the same solution (2,9)

<u>System C)</u> (T-P)x + (U-Q)y = V-R  ⇒(5)

                  Tx + Uy = V  

By multiplying equation (1) by -1 and add with equation (2), we will get the equation (5)

So, system C has the same solution of (2,9)

<u>System D)</u> (T-P)x + (Q+U)y = V-R  ⇒(6)

                  Tx + Uy = V  

We cannot get equation (6) by the same operation over equation (1)

Note the coefficient of x and y⇒ (T-P) and (Q+U)

They must be (T+P) and (Q+U) <u>OR </u>(T-P) and (Q-U)

So, system D has not the same solution of (2,9)

<u>System E)</u> (5T-P)x + (5U-Q)y = V-5R ⇒ (6)

                  Tx + Uy = V  

By subtract equation (1) from 5 times equation (2), we will get:

(5T-P)x + (5U-Q)y = 5V-R

Which is not the same as equation (6)

So, system E has not the same solution (2,9)

As a conclusion, the systems which have the same solution are:

The sum of two numbers, x and y, is 12. The difference of x and two times y is 6. What are the values of x and y?
ikadub [295]
We write to expressions since there are two unknown here which is x and y. The first expression is the <span>sum of two numbers, x and y, is 12.

x + y = 12

The second expression is that the </span><span>difference of x and two times y is 6.

x -2y = 6

Therefore, the values of x and y are 10 and 2.</span>
