Two trains are traveling towards each other at a constant speed. The trains are currently 714 miles from each other. The speeds

of the trains differ by 8 miles per hour. The trains will meet in 7 hours. What is the speed of the faster train?

55mph.

you can solve it using the equation distance=speed x time

your total distance is 714, and you have 2 trains, one traveling some speed, x, and one traveling x+8, both traveling for 7 hours. 
your equation would look like this
714 = x(7) + (x+8)(7)
and you can then solve for x, which would be 47. this is the speed of the slower train, but 47+8=55 with give you the speed of the faster train.

The volume of a cone, V, is represented by , where r is the cone’s radius and h its height.
Arlecino [84]
So the height will equal 95.50 inches.

So if you double the height the volume is 1800cm3 and that is double the original volume 

And if you double the height the volume is 3600cm3 and that is the triple the original volume

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school degree as their highest educational level, or they do not. The probability of an adult having it is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

30.4% of U.S. adults 25 years old or older have a high school degree as their highest educational level.

This means that p = 0.304

100 such adults

This means that n = 100

Determine the probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is a. Exactly 32

This is P(X = 32).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 32) = C_{100,32}.(0.304)^{32}.(0.696)^{68} = 0.0803

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.
