I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST!! PLEASE HELP!!! The figure below shows the movement of a pedestrian from point B to point E. Using the

graph, answer the following questions:
A) What is the speed of the pedestrian BC, CD, and DE?

B) After what time since the stop did he arrive at point E?


C) Write the formulas for function d(t) for sections BC, CD, and DE

A) The speed of the pedestrian BC is 5 km/h

    The speed of the pedestrian CD is 0 km/h

    The speed of the pedestrian DE is 5 km/h

B) He arrived E since the stop after 6 hours

C) The formula for section BC is d(t) = 40 - 5t

    The formula for section CD is d(t) = 20

    The formula for section DE is d(t) = 50 - 5t

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

In the time-distance graph the speed is the rate of change of distance

and that mean speed = Δd/Δt ⇒ (slope of the line)

In line BC:

1. Δd = 40 - 20 = 20 km

2. Δt = 4 - 0 = 4 hours

3. The speed = 20 ÷ 4 = 5 km/h

The speed of the pedestrian BC is 5 km/h

In line CD:

1. Δd = 20 - 20 = 0 km

2. Δt = 6 - 4 = 2 hours

3. The speed = 0 ÷ 2 = 0 km/h

The speed of the pedestrian CD is 0 km/h

In line DE:

1. Δd = 20 - 0 = 20 km

2. Δt = 10 - 6 = 4 hours

3. The speed = 20 ÷ 4 = 5 km/h

The speed of the pedestrian DE is 5 km/h

B)

∵ He stop at t = 4 hours

∵ He arrived at point E at t = 10 hours

∵ 10 - 4 = 6 hours

He arrived E since the stop after 6 hours

C)

The speeds are represented by lines

The form of the equation of a line is f(x) = mx + c, where m represents

the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

1. f(x) is d(t)

2. m is the speed

3. x is t

4. You can find c by substitute d and t by any point on the line

Line BC

Line BC has negative slope because d decreases when t increases

∵ m = -5 and c = 40

∴ d(t) = 40 - 5t

The formula for section BC is d(t) = 40 - 5t

Line CD

Line CD is a horizontal line (equation any horizontal line is y = c)

∴ m = 0 and c = 20

∴ d(t) = 20

The formula for section CD is d(t) = 20

Line DE

Line DE has negative slope because d decreases when t increases

∵ m = -5

∴ d(t) = -5t + c

To find c substitute the coordinates of point D in the equation

∵ The coordinates of point D are (6 , 20)

∴ 20 = -5(6) + c

∴ 20 = -30 + c

Add 30 to both sides

∴ c = 50

∴ d(t) = 50 - 5t

The formula for section DE is d(t) = 50 - 5t

What is x????<br> please help!!!!
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 38 = 10x - 16

The sum of two opposite interior angles is equal to the opposite exterior angle.

4x + 38 = 10x - 16

38 = 10x -16 - 4x

38 = 6x - 16

38 + 16 = 6x

54 = 6x

Divide both sides by 6

x = 9

Find the solution of this system of equations<br> 4x - 5y = -12<br> -X + 5y = 18
Natalka [10]

4x - 5y = -12

-x + 5y = 18

Add the equations together:

4x + -x = 3x

-5y + 5y = 0

-12 + 18 = 6

So now you have:

3x = 6

Divide both sides by 3:

X = 2

Now you have the value of x, replace x with 2 in one of the equations and solve for y:

4(2) -5y = -12

8 -5y = -12

Subtract 8 from both sides:

-5y = -20

Divide both sides by -5:

Y = 4

The solution is x = 2 and y = 4 which is written as (2,4)

suppose X and Y are independent random variables, both with normal distributions. If X has a mean of 45 with a standard deviatio
djyliett [7]

Answer:

0.9772 = 97.72% probability that a randomly generated value of X is greater than a randomly generated value of Y

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

\mu_X = 45, \sigma_X = 4, \mu_Y = 35, \sigma_Y = 3

What is the probability that a randomly generated value of X is greater than a randomly generated value of Y

This means that the subtraction of X by Y has to be positive.

When we subtract two normal variables, the mean is the subtraction of their means, and the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of their variances. So

\mu = \mu_X - \mu_Y = 45 - 35 = 0

\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_X^2+\sigma_Y^2} = \sqrt{25} = 5

We want to find P(X > 0), that is, 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{0 - 10}{5}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228

1 - 0.0228 = 0.9772

0.9772 = 97.72% probability that a randomly generated value of X is greater than a randomly generated value of Y
