Holden is trying to determine the velocity of his race car. He went 20 meters east, turned around, and went 40 meters west. He t

urned the car one more time and went 35 meters east. His car was 15 meters from the starting line. This took 5 seconds. What is the car’s velocity?

Answer:

3 m /s

Explanation:

Average velocity is defined as the ratio of total displacement to the total time taken. The formula of average velocity is given by

Average velocity = \frac{Total displacement}{Total time taken}

Take east direction is positive and west is negative.

Here the total displacement is

d = 20 - 40 + 35 = 15 m

t = 5 second

Average velocity = 15 / 5 = 3 m/s

7. These temperatures were recorded in Pasadena for a week in April. 87 85 80 78 83 86 90 Find each of these. (a) Mean (e) Range
slega [8]

Answer:

a) Mean = 84.14

b) Median = 85

c) Mode = no mode (since there is no variable that appears more than once in this dataset)

d) Midrange = 84

e) Range = 12

f) Variance = 14.69

g) Standard deviation = 3.83

Explanation:

The raw data to be processed is

87 85 80 78 83 86 90

a) Mean = (Σx)/N

The mean is the sum of variables divided by the number of variables

x = each variable

N = number of variables = 7

Mean = (87+85+80+78+83+86+90)/7

Mean = 84.14

b) Median is the number in the middle of the dataset when the variables are arranged in ascending or descending order.

Arranging the data in ascending order

78, 80, 83, 85, 86, 87, 90

The number in the middle is the 4th number = 85

Median = 85

c) Mode is the variable that occurs the most in a distribution.

For this question, all of the variables occur only once, with no variable occurring more than once. Hence, there is no mode for this dataset.

d) Midrange is the arithmetic mean of the highest and lowest number in the dataset.

Mathematically,

Midrange = (Highest + Lowest)/2

Midrange = (90 + 78)/2

Midrange = 84

e) Range is the difference the highest and the lowest numbers in a dataset.

Range = 90 - 78 = 12

f) Variance is an average of the squared deviations from the mean.

Mathematically,

Variance = [Σ(x - xbar)²/N]

xbar = mean

Σ(x - xbar)² = (78 - 84.14)² + (80 - 84.14)² + (83 - 84.14)² + (85 - 84.14)² + (86 - 84.14)² + (87 - 84.14)² + (90 - 84.14)² = 102.8572

Variance = (102.8572)/7

Variance = 14.69

g) Standard deviation = √(variance)

Standard deviation = √(14.69)

Standard deviation = 3.83

Hope this Helps!!!

A dog is 10 m from a cat, whose speeds are 6 and 5 m / s, respectively. What time does the dog require to catch the cat?
scoray [572]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

because the cat is moving one m/s slower than the dog, the dog has a relative speed of 1 m/s. 10 meters would take 10 seconds for the dog to cover
