An ant moves 18 millimeters every 5 seconds

Mathematics
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find their rate of speed.

r = d / t

For ant,

Convert millimeters to inches.

1 inch = 25.4 mm

18 mm = 0.7 inch

r = 0.7 / 5

r = 0.14 inches per second

For beetle,

r = 8 / 3

r = 2.7 inches per second

From the rates, you can tell that the beetle crosses the Garden first.

To know how long it takes for the ant to cross is by dividing the length by the rate.

1 yard = 36 inches

13 yards = 468 inches

468 ÷ 0.14 = 668.5 ≈ 669 seconds

In terms of minutes:

11 minutes and 15 seconds

The ant would cross the garden in 11 minutes and 15 seconds (or 669 seconds <em>up to you</em>).

1600 children and 1400 adults attended

<h3>How to determine the number of adults?</h3>

Let the children be x and adult be y.

So, we have the following equations:

x + y = 3000

1.5x + 5y = 9400

Make x the subject in x + y = 3000

x = 3000 - y

Substitute x = 3000 - y  in 1.5x + 5y = 9400

1.5(3000 - y) + 5y = 9400

Expand

4500 - 1.5y + 5y = 9400

Evaluate the like terms

3.5y = 4900

Divide both sides by 3.5

y = 1400

Substitute y = 1400 in x = 3000 - y

x = 3000 - 1400

Evaluate

x = 1600

Hence, 1600 children and 1400 adults attended

A box contains five slips of paper, marked $1, $1, $10, $25, and $25. The winner of a contest selects two slips of paper at rand
Arisa [49]

Answer:

w = $1 or $10 or $25

Probability distribution of w = ($1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $10,$1  $10,$1  $10,$10  $10,$25  $10,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the winner gets the larger amount of the two slips picked, random variable 'w' which is the amount awarded could be $1 or $10 or $25.

The probability distribution of 'w' is the values that the statistic takes on. Which could be: $1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $1,$1  $1,$1  $1,$10  $1,$25  $1,$25  $10,$1  $10,$1  $10,$10  $10,$25  $10,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25  $25,$1  $25,$1  $25,$10  $25,$25  $25,$25
