Randy wants to run half a marathon. Half a marathon is 13.1 miles. if she wants to run the race in 2 hours what rate(in minutes
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

9.16 minutes per mile

At 10 miles, she is short of her intended rate

Step-by-step explanation:

2 hours means 60 * 2 = 120 minutes

Randy aims to run 13.1 miles in 120 minutes. So to get the rate [min/mi], we must divide total minutes by total miles:

120/13.1 = 9.16 minutes per mile

Moreover, she realized at 10 miles, she has taken 90 minutes. So her rate at that point [min/mi] is:

90/10 = 9 min/mi

Well, Randy is short of her intended rate

A county is 50% African-American and 50% Caucasian, and an African-American is on trial. A jury has been selected that contains
zepelin [54]

Answer:

The defendant claim is credible. It should be advised that the defendant can pursue his claim of racial bias in jury

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the county comprises of 50% African-American and 50% Caucasian. If a jury of 8 members are to be selected from the county's people,

The probability of selection of 4 African-American is 4/8(50%) = 1/2

The probability of selection of 4 Caucasian is 4/8(50%) = 1/2.

This above is a binomial probability distributions. It is a probability of two possible outcomes, summing up to equals 1.

Selection of 2 African-American and 6 Caucasian in 8 jury members actually show a racial bias. It does not reflect 50% each proportion and probability.

Probability of African-American Jury selection is 2/8(1/4)

Probability of Caucasian Jury selection is 6/8(3/4)

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of equations y=x+3 and y=x^2-x
Elenna [48]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

y = x + 3\\y = x ^ 2-x

Equating the equations we have:

x ^ 2-x = x + 3\\x ^ 2-x-x-3 = 0\\x ^ 2-2x-3 = 0

To find the solutions we factor the equation. To do this, we look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in -3 and when added, result in -2.

These numbers are: -3 and +1

-3 + 1 = -2\\-3 * (+ 1) = - 3

Thus, the factored equation is:

(x-3) (x + 1) = 0

Then, the solutions for the variable "x" are:

x_ {1} = 3\\x_ {2} = - 1

We find the solutions for the variable "y":

y_ {1} = x_ {1} + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6\\y_ {2} = x_ {2} + 3 = -1 + 3 = 2

Thus, the solutions are:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (3,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (-1,2)

ANswer:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (3,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (-1,2)

What is the answer to this Question?<br><br><br> 8 – 6 (x – 4) = 2x – 2 (4x – 5) + 22
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Here

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

8−6(x−4)=2x−2(4x−5)+22

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8−6(x−4)=2x−2(4x−5)+22

8+(−6)(x)+(−6)(−4)=2x+(−2)(4x)+(−2)(−5)+22(Distribute)

8+−6x+24=2x+−8x+10+22

(−6x)+(8+24)=(2x+−8x)+(10+22)(Combine Like Terms)

−6x+32=−6x+32

−6x+32=−6x+32

Step 2: Add 6x to both sides.

−6x+32+6x=−6x+32+6x

32=32

Step 3: Subtract 32 from both sides.

32−32=32−32

0=0
