Answer:

time = 70 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question the whole race is 10 kilometer. It takes her 17. 5 minutes to cover a distance of 2.5 km.

The rate the runner used to cover the distance of 2.5 km can be computed as follows:

rate = distance / time

distance = 2.5 km

time = 17.5 minutes

rate = 2.5/17.5

rate = 0.14285714285  kilometer/minutes

rate = 0.14285714285 km/min

Use the rate to calculate for the time the runner used for the whole distance of 10 km

rate = distance/time

rate = 0.14285714285 km/min

distance = 10 km

rate = distance/time

cross multiply

time = distance/rate

time = 10/0.14285714285

time = 70 minutes

time = 70 minutes

A student S is suspected of cheating on exam, due to evidence E of cheating being present. Suppose that in the case of a cheatin
Kay [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we think of an alphabet X to be the Event of the evidence.

Also, if Y be the Event of cheating; &

Y' be the Event of not involved in cheating

From the given information:

P(\dfrac{X}{Y}) = 60\% = 0.6

P(\dfrac{X}{Y'}) = 0.01\% = 0.0001

P(Y) = 0.01

Thus, P(Y') \ will\ be = 1 - P(Y)

P(Y') = 1 - 0.01

P(Y') = 0.99

The probability of cheating & the evidence is present is = P(YX)

P(YX) = P(\dfrac{X}{Y}) \ P(Y)

P(YX) =0.6 \times 0.01

P(YX) =0.006

The probabilities of not involved in cheating & the evidence are present is:

P(Y'X) = P(Y')  \times P(\dfrac{X}{Y'})

P(Y'X) = 0.99  \times 0.0001 \\ \\  P(Y'X) = 0.000099

(b)

The required probability that the evidence is present is:

P(YX  or Y'X) = 0.006 + 0.000099

P(YX  or Y'X) = 0.006099

(c)

The required probability that (S) cheat provided the evidence being present is:

Using Bayes Theorem

P(\dfrac{Y}{X}) = \dfrac{P(YX)}{P(Y)}

P(\dfrac{Y}{X}) = \dfrac{P(0.006)}{P(0.006099)}

P(\dfrac{Y}{X}) = 0.9838

As Jupiter revolves around the sun, it travels at a speed of approximately 8 miles per second. Convert this speed to kilometers
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The kilometers Jupiter travel in 5 seconds is <u>64 kilometers</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

As Jupiter revolves around the sun, it travels at a speed of approximately 8 miles per second.

1 mile is equal to 1.6 kilometers.

Now, to convert this speed to kilometers per second, and at this speed to find kilometers will Jupiter travel in 5 seconds.

So, to convert speed of miles per second into kilometres per second:

<em>1 mile = 1.6 kilometres.</em>

Thus, 8 miles = 8 × 1.6 = 12.8 kilometres per second.

Now, at this speed we calculate the kilometres Jupiter travel in 5 seconds by multiplying:

<em>In 1 second Jupiter travel = 12.8 kilometres.</em>

So, in 5 seconds Jupiter travel  =12.8\times 5

                                                    =64\ kilometers.

Therefore, the kilometers Jupiter travel in 5 seconds is 64 kilometers.
