If a train traveled at 50 meters within 120 seconds, what is its speed?

Alja [10]

Answer:

v = 0.416 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Give that,

Distance covered by a train, d = 50 m

Time taken, t = 120 s

We need to find the speed of a train. The formula for speed of an object is equal to the total distance covered divided by total time taken. It can be given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{50\ m}{120\ s}\\\\v=0.416\ m/s$

So, the speed of a train is 0.416 m/s.

Anna would like to purchase a new bike that costs $205. She already has $31 saved. If she saves a maximum of $12 a week, the fol

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

It will take at least 15 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

12w+31 ≥ 205

Subtract 31 from each side

12w+31-31 ≥ 205-31

12w ≥ 174

Divide each side by 12

12w/12 ≥ 174/12

w ≥ 14.5

Rounding up to the nearest integer

w ≥ 15

It will take at least 15 weeks

Assume that the Poisson distribution applies to the number of births at a particular hospital during a randomly selected day. As

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

0.9999985 = 99.99985% probability that in a day, there will be at least 1 birth.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval.

Assume that the mean number of births per day at this hospital is 13.4224.

This means that $\mu = 13.4224$

Find the probability that in a day, there will be at least 1 birth.

This is:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

In which

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-13.4224}*13.4224^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0000015$

Then

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0000015 = 0.9999985
$

0.9999985 = 99.99985% probability that in a day, there will be at least 1 birth.
