6km is 3/4 of her morning speed so 6/(3/4)=6×4/3=8km. Total distance=6+8=14km.

Answer:

14 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the kilometers she hiked on morning,

25% of the hiked kilometers on morning = 25% of x

= 0.25x

Thus, 25% less of the hiked kilometers on morning = x - 0.25x

= 0.75x

According to the question,

0.75x = 6

\implies x=\frac{6}{0.75}=8

Thus, she hiked 8 km in morning,

And, the total kilometers she hiked = hiked kilometers on morning + hiked kilometers on afternoon

= 8 + 6

= 14

What’s the vertex form of F(x)=x^2+2x-3
kupik [55]

Answer:

\large\boxed{f(x)=(x+1)^2-4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The vertex form of a quadratic equation}\ f(x)=ax^2+bx+c:\\\\f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k\\\\(h,\ k)-\text{vertex}\\=====================================

\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\\text{convert to the perfect square}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)\\\\f(x)=x^2+2x-3=\underbrace{x^2+2(x)(1)+1^2}_{(*)}-1^2-3\\\\f(x)=(x+1)^2-4\\==============================

\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\\text{Use the formulas:}\ h=\dfrac{-b}{2a},\ k=f(k)\\\\f(x)=x^2+2x-3\to a=1,\ b=2,\ c=-3\\\\h=\dfrac{-2}{2(1)}=\dfrac{-2}{2}=-1\\\\k=f(-1)=(-1)^2+2(-1)-3=1-2-3=-4\\\\f(x)=(x-(-1))^2-4=(x+1)^2-4

A jet ski costs $925 and depreciates by 15% each year. How much will
ivann1987 [24]
Initial cost of the jet ski = $925
Percentage of depreciation per year = 15%
Number of years after which the cost of the jetski has to be determined = 7
Then
Depreciated Value = Initial cost( 1 - percentage of depreciation) ^number of years
                              = 925( 1 - 15%)^7
                              = 925( 1 - 15/100)^7
                              = 925(1 - 0.15)^7
                              = 925(0.85)^7
                              = 925 *(0.85)^7
                              = 925 * 0.3206
                              = 296.53 dollars
So the depreciated cost of the jet ski after 7 years will be $296.53

Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in half an hour.If she keeps picking strawberries at the same time, how many gallons
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Number of gallons of strawberries will she have picked in 2 hours is, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rate are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 4 feet per second or 6 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

Given the statement: Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in half an hour.

⇒ In \frac{1}{2} hour Jen picked  \frac{3}{4} gallon of strawberries.

Unit rate per hour = \frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

To find the number of gallons will she have picked in 2 hours.

Number of gallons = unit rate per hours \times 2

                                      =\frac{3}{2} \times 2 = 3

Therefore, the number of gallons will she have picked in 2 hours is, 3

Zanzabum

Answer:

\sigma=547.1125

Step-by-step explanation:

-The margin of error is calculated using the formula:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\

-We substitute the values, n=900 and ME=30 in the formula to solve for standard deviation:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\\30=1.645\times\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{900}}\\\\\sigma=\frac{30^2}{1.645}\\\\=547.1125

Hence, the population standard deviation is 547.1125
