Albert could race 4 times as fast as Bernard. For this reason Albert could race 48 miles in 3 hours less than it took Bernard to

race 30 miles. How fast could each of them race? What was the time of a racer?

Albert runs 16 mph 0_0
Bernard runs roughly 10 mph

I don't know the time because i do not know how long the race is.

Colleen recorded the type of trees in the woods near her house.She counted 20 trees and 50 maple trees.What is the experimental

natka813 [3]

Answer: The required probability is $\dfrac{8}{125}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of spruce tree = 20

Number of maple tree = 50

Total trees = 70

We need to find the experimental probability that the next tree Colleen to get a spruce tree.

So, the probability would be :

$(\dfrac{20}{50})^3=(\dfrac{2}{5})^3=\dfrac{8}{125}$

Hence, the required probability is $\dfrac{8}{125}$

Whats the solution of <br> y = x +2 <br> 2x - 5y = 2

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

x = -4, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute for y

2x - 5(x + 2) = 2

distribute -5

2x -5x - 10 = 2

solve

-3x - 10 = 2

add 10 on both sides

-3x = 12

divide by -3

x = -4

now substitute for x in the equation y = x + 2

y = -4 + 2

y = -2

A statue is mounted on top of a 21 foot hill. From the base of the hill to where you are standing is 57feet and the statue subte

AleksandrR [38]

Please find the attached diagram for a better understanding of the question.

As we can see from the diagram,

RQ = 21 feet = height of the hill

PQ = 57 feet = Distance between you and the base of the hill

SR= h=height of the statue

$\angle SPR$ =Angle subtended by the statue to where you are standing.

$\angle x=\angle RPQ$ = which is unknown.

Let us begin solving now. The first step is to find the angle $\angle x$ which can be found by using the following trigonometric ratio in $\Delta PQR$ :

$tan(x)=\frac{RQ}{PQ} =\frac{21}{57}$

Which gives $\angle x$ to be:

$\angle x=tan^{-1}(\frac{21}{57})\approx20.22^{0}$

Now, we know that $\angle x$ and $\angle SPR$ can be added to give us the complete angle $\angle SPQ$ in the right triangle $\Delta SPQ$ .

We can again use the tan trigonometric ratio in $\Delta SPQ$ to solve for the height of the statue, h.

This can be done as:

$tan(\angle SPQ)=\frac{SQ}{PQ}$

$tan(7.1^0+20.22^0)=\frac{SR+RQ}{PQ}$

$tan(27.32^0)=\frac{h+21}{57}$

$\therefore h+21=57tan(27.32^0)$

$h\approx8.45 ft$

Thus, the height of the statue is approximately, 8.45 feet.
