g the sidewalks. Or, he can cut through the city to get from his apartment to the store along a single straight line. Walking on the sidewalks, Henry walks 6 miles/hour. Cutting through the city, Henry can only walk 3.5 miles/hour.

Answer:

If Henry walks along the sidewalks, he will walk 1.7 miles in total. It will take him 17 minutes to reach the store and another 17 minutes to come back.

If Henry cuts through the city, he will walk √(1.2² + 0.5²) = 1.3 miles in total. It will take him 22.3 minutes to reach the store and another 22.3 minutes to come back.

Even though Henry will need to walk a longer distance if he walks along the sidewalks, he will be able to reach the store and back back in a shorter time than if he cuts through the city.

Which of the following is equivalent to (x+4)(3x^2+2x)?
Mrrafil [7]

We can multiple this binomial and this trinomial to find an equivalent expression.

(x + 4)(3x^2 + 2x)

3x^3 + 2x^2 + 12x^2 + 8x

Combine like terms.

3x^3 + 14x^2 + 8x is the equivalent polynomial.

Please help me to figure out this question. Thanks
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a) 5 : 7

b) 25 black keys

c) 100 black keys will appear.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) From the picture,

There are 5 black keys and 7 white keys.

Therefore, the ratio of black keys to white keys are = 5 : 7 = 5/7

b) If the pattern continues, 25 black keys will be appeared on a portable full-sized keyboard.

Explanation -

From part A, we get the ratio of black keys to white keys = 5 : 7. Therefore,

If there are 7 white keys, there are 5 black keys

If there are 1 white keys, there are 5/7 black keys

If there are 35 white keys, there are (5*35)/7 black keys

= 25 black keys.

c) If there are 240 keys, the black keys will appear -

We get, the ratio of black keys to white keys = 5 : 7

The summation of the black keys and white keys = (5 + 7) = 12.

Therefore, if there are 240 keys, the black keys will be

= (5/12) x 240

= (5 x 240)/12

= 100

Therefore, there are 100 black keys.

notsponge [240]

The question given is incomplete, I googled and got the complete question as below:

You are a waterman daily plying the waters of Chesapeake Bay for blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus), the best-tasting crustacean in the world. Crab populations and commercial catch rates are highly variable, but the fishery is under constant pressure from over-fishing, habitat destruction, and pollution. These days, you tend to pull crab pots containing an average of 2.4 crabs per pot. Given that you are economically challenged as most commercial fishermen are, and have an expensive boat to pay off, you’re always interested in projecting your income for the day. At the end of one day, you calculate that you’ll need 7 legal-sized crabs in your last pot in order to break even for the day. Use these data to address the following questions. Show your work.

a. What is the probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs?

b. What is the probability that your last pot will be empty?

Answer:

a. Probability = 0.0083

b. Probability = 0.0907

Step-by-step explanation:

This is Poisson distribution with parameter λ=2.4

a)

The probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs is calculated below:

P(X=7)=  {e-2.4*2.47/7!} = 0.0083

b)

The probability that your last pot will be empty is calculated as:

P(X=0)=  {e-2.4*2.40/0!} = 0.0907
