Setup a rational equation and solve it from the word problem. Mr. Solberg can ride his scooter 3 miles against the wind in the s

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The speed of Mr Solberg's scooter when there is no wind is 35 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The time Mr. Solberg rides his scooter and cover 3 miles against the wind = The time Mr. Solberg rides his scooter and cover 4 miles with the wind

The speed of the wind = 5 miles per hour

Let v, represent the speed of Mr Solberg's scooter when there is no wind, we have;

Time = Distance/Speed

Mr Solberg's speed against the wind = v - 5

Mr Solberg's speed with the wind = v + 5

The distance covered at a given time, while riding against the wind = 3 miles

The distance covered at the same time, while riding with the wind = 4 miles

The time in both instances are therefore 3/(v - 5) = 4/(v + 5)

From which we have;

3 × (v + 5) = 4 × (v - 5)

3·v + 15 = 4·v - 20

20 + 15 = 4·v - 3·v

4·v - 3·v = 20 + 15

v = 35

The speed of Mr Solberg's scooter when there is no wind = v = 35 miles per hour.

The probability of drawing a heart from a standard deck of cards is 0.25. You record the car do you draw and return the car befo

Licemer1 [7]

Answer: C) 0.112

Step-by-step explanation:

In binomial distribution with parameters n (Total trails) and p (probability of getting success sin each trial) , the probability of getting success in x trials is given by :-

$P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Given : The probability of drawing a heart from a standard deck of cards is 0.25

Here , getting heart is the success.

Then p= 0.25

For n= 20

The probability that you will draw a heart seven times i.e. x= 7:

$P(X=7)=^{20}C_7(0.25)^7(1-0.25)^{20-7}$

$P(X=7)=\dfrac{20!}{7!(20-7)!}(0.25)^7(1-0.25)^{20-7}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}]$

$=\dfrac{20\times19\times18\times17\times16\times15\times14\times13!}{7!13!}(0.25)^7(0.75)^{13}\\\\=77520(0.00006103515625)(0.0237572640181)\\\\=0.112406195476\approx0.112$

Hence, the probability that you will draw a heart seven times = 0.112

Thus , the correct answer is C) 0.112 .
