They would need 34.125 tons of rations.
In order to find this, we first need to see how many pounds of rations a single soldier eats in a week. To do this, we take the total eaten in 3 weeks and divide by 3. Then we divide by the number of soldiers.
16,380/3 weeks= 5460 lbs per week
5460/520 soldiers = 10.5 lbs per soldier per week
Now we look to see how many soldiers we will have in total after adding. There are 520 to start and we add 780 to get 1300 total. Next we multiply that by the total per soldier per week.
10.5lbs per soldier per week * 1300 soldiers = 13,650lbs per week
Then we have to multiply by the 5 weeks that battalion will be there.
13,650lbs * 5 weeks = 68,250lbs of rations or 24.125 tons.
Answer:
0.9586
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given:
7 children out of every 1000 children suffer from DIPG
A screening test designed contains 98% sensitivity & 84% specificity.
Now, from above:
The probability that the children have DIPG is:


= (0.98 × 0.007) + 0.16( 1 - 0.007)
= 0.16574
So, the probability of not having DIPG now is:



= 0.9586
Answer:
As per the statement:
The path that the object takes as it falls to the ground can be modeled by:
h =-16t^2 + 80t + 300
where
h is the height of the objects and
t is the time (in seconds)
At t = 0 , h = 300 ft
When the objects hit the ground, h = 0
then;
-16t^2+80t+300=0
For a quadratic equation: ax^2+bx+c=0 ......[1]
the solution for the equation is given by:

On comparing the given equation with [1] we have;
a = -16 ,b = 80 and c = 300
then;


Simplify:
= -2.5 sec and
= 7.5 sec
Time can't be in negative;
therefore, the time it took the object to hit the ground is 7.5 sec
