The mathcounts sprint round competition consists of 30 problems with a time limit of 40 minutes. suppose you complete 20 sprint

round problems in 25 minutes. on average, how many times as long will you be able to spend on each remaining problem than you did on each of the first 20? express your answer as a common fraction.

Answer:

6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The average time you spent per problem for the first 20 problems is 25/20 = 5/4 minutes. There are 40 - 25 = 15 minutes remaining, and 30 - 20 = 10 problems remaining, so the average time per remaining problem is 15/10 = 3/2 minutes. Hence, you can spend

(3/2)/(5/4) = 6/5

times longer on the remaining problems.

The number of remaining problems is:
 30-20 = 10 problems.
 The amount of time remaining is:
 40-25 = 15minutes
 For the first 20 problems the time per problem is:
 t1 = 25/20 = 5/4 minutes
 For the remaining problems the time per problem is:
 t2 = 15/10 = 3/2 minutes
  Answer:
 
you will be able to spend about 3/2 minutes on each remaining problem

Fifty-five percent of the members of the junior varsity swim team wear glasses. Of the team memebers who do not wear glasses, 30
GarryVolchara [31]

the probability that a randomly chosen member of the JV swim team does not wear glasses and is in the 10th grade is 14%.

Given, the members of the junior varsity swim team wear glasses is 55%.

And the members of junior varsity swim team who do not wear glasses and in 10th grade is 30%.

Let the total no. of members be x.

So, the members of the junior varsity swim team wear glasses (55%),will be

0.55x.

The total number of members not wearing glasses, will be

x - 0.55 x = 0.45 x.

Now, the no. of members not wearing glasses and in 10th grade will be,

\frac{0.45x\times30}{100} =0.135x

We know that the probability of an event E, P(E) will be,

P(E)=\frac{No.\ of Favourable\ outcomes}{total \ no. \ of \ outcomes}

So, the probability for no. of members not wearing glasses and in 10th grade will be,

P(E)=\dfrac{0.135x}{x}

P(E)=0.135\\\\P(E)=13.5 \%

Hence the nearest whole percent of probability is 14%.

F the angle of elevation from the point on the ground to the top of the tree is 34° and the point is 25 feet from the base of th
Viktor [21]

<u>Given:</u>

The angle of elevation from the point on the ground to the top of the tree is 34° and the point is 25 feet from the base of the tree.

We need to determine the height of the tree.

<u>Height of the tree:</u>

Let the height of the tree be h.

The height of the tree can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

tan \ \theta=\frac{opp}{adj}

Substituting the values, we get;

tan \ 34^{\circ}=\frac{h}{25}

Multiplying both sides by 25, we have;

tan \ 34^{\circ} \times 25=h

 0.6745 \times 25=h

       16.8625=h

Rounding off to the nearest tenth of a foot, we get;

16.9=h

Thus, the height of the tree is 16.9 feet.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Use a special right triangle to express sin 45 degrees as a fraction
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

in a right angled triangle angles given are 45,90

Then third angle is also 45 °

as two angles are 45° each.

Then sides are also equal.

Let the equal sides be each =x

then hypotenuse=√(x²+x²)=√(2x²)=x√2

sin 45°=x/(x√2)=1/√2
