Mathematics

the semi truck has more weight than a motorcycle. the truck will have to go slow with it carring the passangers and the cargo, alonf with the weight of the trailer and and the weight of the cab itself. the motorcycle will only carry the passanger and the cycle its self. theres a big weight difference. anorher thinf is the motors are both a different size. the motorcycles motor is alot smaller than the trucks so the bikes motor will get ready faster. the same goes with alot of pick up trucks. some trucks have a weight to start signal because they are trying to get the motor ready.

I hope this helps.

Answer:

The semi-truck has more weight than the motorcycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Obviously a truck is heavier than a motorcycle, so it will have more inertia. Hope this helps!

A shark can chase prey about 30 miles per hour. What is this rate in miles per minute?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Solution :

Give that a shark can chase prey about 30 miles per hour.

1 hour = 60 minute

by using unitary method, we will convert miles per hour into miles per minute

in 60 minutes the shark can chase the prey 30 miles

In 1 minute the shark can chase \frac{30}{60}  miles = \frac {1}{2} miles= 0.5 miles

Hence the shark can chase the prey about 0.5 miles per minute.

A glacier advances toward the sea 0.004 mile anually. In 2010 the front of the glacier is 6.9 miles from the mouth of the sea. H
olchik [2.2K]

You know where the glacier is now, and how far it moves in
one year.  The question is asking how close to the sea it will be
after many years.

Step-1 ... you have to find out how many years

Step-2 ... you have to figure out how far it moves in that many years

Step-3 ... you have to figure out where it is after it moves that far

The first time I worked this problem, I left out  the most important
step ... READ the problem carefully and make SURE you know
the real question.  The first time I worked the problem, I thought
I was done after Step-2. 

============================

Step-1:  How many years is it from 2010 to 2030 ?

               (2030  -  2010)  =  20 years .


Step-2:  How far will the glacier move in 20 years ? 

               It moves 0.004 mile in 1 year.

              In 20 years, it moves 0.004 mile 20 times

              0.004 x 20  =  0.08 mile


Step-3: How far will it be from the sea after all those years ?

              In 2010, when we started watching it, it was 6.9 miles
              from the sea.

              The glacier moves toward the sea.
               In 20 years, it will be  0.08 mile closer to the sea.
               How close will it be ?

               6.9 miles  -  0.08 mile  =  6.82 miles  (if it doesn't melt)

There is a game at the carnival that costs $20 to play. There are two outcomes: either you win $100 , or you lose. To play you r
Taya2010 [7]
Outcome on winning = $100 - $20 = $80
Outcome on losing = $20

Probability of winning = 1/6
Probability of losing = 5/6

Expected Value = 1/6 (80) +5/6(-20) = -3.333

This shows on average from each game, the game earns $ 3.333.

So, if 1000 such games are played, the game will earn 1000 x 3.33 = $3330 

So, the answer to this question is option A
