Answer:

The time required  them working together to shovel the snow is T = 1.428 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Time taken by first person to shovel the snow T_1 = 2 hours

Time taken by second person to shovel the snow T_2 = 5 hours

Time taken by both persons to shovel the snow

\frac{1}{T}  = \frac{T_1+T_2}{ (T_1) (T_2)}

Put all the values in above equation we get

\frac{1}{T}  = \frac{2 +5}{(2)(5)}

T = 1.428 hours

Therefore the time required  them working together to shovel the snow is T = 1.428 hours

The number of airline passengers in 1990 was 466 million. The number of passengers traveling by airplane each year has increased
taurus [48]

Answer:

2010.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an exponential growth formula P(t)=466\cdot 1.035^t, which represents number of passengers traveling by airplane since 1990.

To find the year in which 900 million passengers will travel by airline, we will equate the given formula by 900 and solve for t as:

900=466\cdot 1.035^t

\frac{900}{466}=\frac{466\cdot 1.035^t}{466}1.9313304721030043=1.035^t

Take natural log of both sides:

\text{ln}(1.9313304721030043)=\text{ln}(1.035^t)

Using property \text{ln}(a^b)=b\cdot \text{ln}(a), we will get:

\text{ln}(1.9313304721030043)=t\cdot \text{ln}(1.035)

0.658209129198=t\cdot 0.034401426717

\frac{0.658209129198}{0.034401426717}=\frac{t\cdot 0.034401426717}{0.034401426717}

19.1331927775=t\\\\t=19.1331927775

This means that in the 20th year since 1990, 900 million passengers would travel by airline.

1990+20=2010

Therefore, 900 million passengers would travel by airline in 2010.

I tried this few times can i get some help
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Y=4 X= -6 or (-6,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so

3x+10y=22

-3x-8y=-14

  1. basically, it's like one big equation. First, subtract 3x from -3x which cancels out and gives us 0
  2. 10y minus 8y gives us 2y.
  3. 22 minus 14 gives us 8

3x+10y=22

<u>-3x-8y=-14</u>

0+2y=8

Now that we have this, we can solve for y. in order to do this, we have to divide both sides by 2.

\frac{2y}{2}  =  \frac{8}{2}

From here we know that y=4 because the 2s cancel out leaving y and 8 divided by 2 is 4.

y= 4

Now we can fill in. You can pick any equation for this but I'm going to chose the first one.

3x+10y=22

we can fill in 4 for y

3x+10(4)=22

3x+40=22

Next we are going to subtract 40 on both sides.

3x+40=22

-40 -40

3x= -18

Next, we're going to divide -18 by 3.

\frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{  - 18}{3}

The 3s cancel out leaving us x. -18 divided by 3 is -6.

x= -6

Hope this helped!! :)

Blue: \frac{16}{40} =\frac{2}{5}

Red: \frac{8}{40} =\frac{1}{5}

C)

No the experimental probabilities found in "A" are not equal to the probabilities found in "B". The sample size of the the experiment was not large enough to reflect the actual probability.
