If the time she rode her bike is 24, then 24*3 would be the Whole time she was there. She was there for a total of 72 hours.
Subtract 24 from 72 because it's 1/3 and you need the other time.
You get 48.
You need to find 1/4 of 48, so you divide it by 4.
48/4 = 12.
She rides the train for 12 hours. This is 1/2 of a day, so your answer is:
She rides the train for 1/2 of a day.
1,265 divided by 34 is 37.20588235
Not really good at that sorry but one remaders are left over from the problem
Answer:
yes it will be
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there what you need is lagrange multipliers for constrained minimisation. It works like this,
V(X)=α2σ2X¯1+β2\sigma2X¯2
Now we want to minimise this subject to α+β=1 or α−β−1=0.
We proceed by writing a function of alpha and beta (the paramters you want to change to minimse the variance of X, but we also introduce another parameter that multiplies the sum to zero constraint. Thus we want to minimise
f(α,β,λ)=α2σ2X¯1+β2σ2X¯2+λ(\alpha−β−1).
We partially differentiate this function w.r.t each parameter and set each partial derivative equal to zero. This gives;
∂f∂α=2ασ2X¯1+λ=0
∂f∂β=2βσ2X¯2+λ=0
∂f∂λ=α+β−1=0
Setting the first two partial derivatives equal we get
α=βσ2X¯2σ2X¯1
Substituting 1−α into this expression for beta and re-arranging for alpha gives the result for alpha. Repeating the same steps but isolating beta gives the beta result.
Lagrange multipliers and constrained minimisation crop up often in stats problems. I hope this helps!And gosh that was a lot to type!xd
