Answer:

v = 15 miles / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance covered by biker = s=45 miles

time taken by him = t=180 minutes

TO Find:

speed in miles per hour = v = ?

Solution:

As it is given that the distance covered is 45 miles

and time taken by him is 180 minutes

as one hour have 60 minutes

so time taken by rider = t = 180 /60

                                          = 3 hours

this step is done because we have to find speed in miles per hour

Now

The formula for finding the distance is

distance = speed * time

or

s = v * t

we have to find v

so dividing both sides by t

\frac{s}{t} = \frac{v*t}{t}

it becomes

v = \frac{s}{t}

Putting the values

v = \frac{45}{3}

solving it gives

v = 15 miles / hour

which is the required speed

in the given options it is not available

Answer:

0.430625=0.431

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

0.430625 = 0.431

Step-by-step explanation:

Let W represent winning, D represent a draw and L represent a loss.

12+ points can be garnered in each of the following ways.

6W 0D 0L

5W 1D 0L

5W 0D 1L

4W 2D 0L

4W 1D 1L

4W 0D 2L

3W 3D 0L

The probability of getting 12+ points is the sum of all these 7 probabilities.

Knowing that P(W) = 0.5

P(D) = 0.1

P(L) = 0.4

P(6W 0D 0L) = [6!/(6!0!0!)] 0.5⁶ 0.1⁰ 0.4⁰ = 0.015625

P(5W 1D 0L) = [6!/(5!1!0!)] 0.5⁵ 0.1¹ 0.4⁰ = 0.01875

P(5W 0D 1L) = [6!/(5!0!1!)] 0.5⁵ 0.1⁰ 0.4¹ = 0.075

P(4W 2D 0L) = [6!/(4!2!0!)] 0.5⁴ 0.1² 0.4⁰ = 0.09375

P(4W 1D 1L) = [6!/(4!1!1!)] 0.5⁴ 0.1¹ 0.4¹ = 0.075

P(4W 0D 2L) = [6!/(4!0!2!)] 0.5⁴ 0.1⁰ 0.4² = 0.15

P(3W 3D 0L) = [6!/(3!3!0!)] 0.5³ 0.1³ 0.4⁰ = 0.0025

The probability of getting 12+ points = 0.015625 + 0.01875 + 0.075 + 0.09375 + 0.075 + 0.15 + 0.0025 = 0.430625

The growth of a sample of bacteria can be modeled by the function bt=1001.06t where b is the number of bacteria and t is time in
alukav5142 [94]

Given:

The growth of a sample of bacteria can be modeled by the function

b(t)=1001.06t

where, b is the number of bacteria and t is time in hours.

To find:

The number of total bacteria after 3 hours.

Solution:

We have,

b(t)=1001.06t

where, b is the number of bacteria and t is time in hours.

Substituting t=3, we get the number of total bacteria after 3 hours.

b(3)=1001.06(3)

b(3)=3003.18

Number of bacteria cannot be decimal value. So, approximate the value to the nearest whole number.

b(3)\approx 3003

Therefore, the number of total bacteria after 3 hours is about 3003.
