Answer:

The distance Puis still have to travel to reach his destination is 72 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters about Puis journey are

Distance covered by Puis = 1/4 of total distance

Distance remaining for Puis to complete the journey = 3/4 of the journey

Distance of Puis from the third-way (central) mark = 24 km

Therefore;

Distance from 1/4 of journey to 1/2 of journey = 24 km

Hence, 1/2 - 1/4 = 1/4 of the journey = 24 km

Which gives Total distance covered by Puis = 24 km

Total distance of the journey = 4 × 24 km = 96 km

The distance Puis still have to travel to reach his destination = 96 - 24 = 72 km.

A ski gondola carries skiers to the top of a mountain. assume that weights of skiers are normally distributed with a mean of 199
Allushta [10]
A) maximum mean weight of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ number of passengers
</span><span>
maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 </span>÷ 25 = <span>150lb

</span>B)  First, find the z-score:
z = (value - mean) / stdev
   = (150 - 199) / 41
   = -1.20

We need to find P(z > -1.20) = 1 - P(z < -1.20)

Now, look at a standard normal table to find <span>P(z < -1.20) = 0.11507, therefore:
</span>P(z > -1.20) = 1 - <span>0.11507 = 0.8849

Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 25 randomly selected skiers exceeds 150lb is about 88.5%</span> </span>

C) With only 20 passengers, the new maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 ÷ 20 = <span>187.5lb

Let's repeat the steps of point B)

z = (187.5 - 199) / 41
   = -0.29

P(z > -0.29) = 1 - P(z < -0.29) = 1 - 0.3859 = 0.6141

</span>Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 20 randomly selected skiers exceeds 187.5lb is about 61.4%

D) The mean weight of skiers is 199lb, therefore:
number</span> of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ <span>mean weight of passengers
                                     = 3750 </span></span><span>÷ 199
                                     = 18.8
The new capacity of 20 skiers is safer than 25 skiers, but we cannot consider it safe enough, since the maximum capacity should be of 18 skiers.</span>

8/7=x/5 what is the value of x round to the nearest tenth
faust18 [17]

Answer:

<h2>x = 5.7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{8}{7}  =  \frac{x}{5}

To find x first cross multiply

We have

7x = 8 × 5

7x = 40

Divide both sides by 7

That's

\frac{7x}{7}  =  \frac{40}{7}

x =  \frac{40}{7}

x = 5.7142

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = 5.7 to the nearest tenth</h3>

Hope this helps you
