From the table, the speed of Corinne is given by

speed=slope= \frac{2.5-1.25}{20-10} = \frac{1.25}{10} =0.125 \ miles / minute

From the graph, the speed of Aretha is given by

speed=slope= \frac{5.5-4.5}{20-10} = \frac{1}{10} =0.1 \ miles / minute

The distance from the starting point of Corinne at any time t is given by D = 0.125t while the distance from the starting point of Aretha at any time t is given by D = 3.5 + 0.1t

Let t be the number of minutes after the start of the race when Corinne catchs Aretha, then

0.125t = 3.5 + 0.1t
0.025t = 3.5
t = 3.5 / 0.025 = 140

Therefore, the number of <span>minutes after the start of the race that Corinne will catch Aretha</span> is 140 minutes.

Set equal to each other since both equal 90

5x-6y=-10x-6y
add 6y to both sides
5x=-10x
x=0


5(0)-6y=-90
-6y=90
divide by -6
y=-15

makvit [3.9K]
Hey there!

The answer would be B. y = 1.25x

If each pound is $1.25 and you get 4 pounds then that would equal to $5.00 or y.


Hope this helps !

A candy company claims that its jelly bean mix contains 15% blue jelly beans. Suppose that the candies are packaged at random in
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Doubtful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Our values are,

P=0.15 \rightarrow 15\%Jelly Bean Mix.

The sample for us is n=200

And our proportion (x) is 40 .

We can calculate  with this dates the sample proportion and make he test statistic.

p=\frac{x}{n} = \frac{40}{200} = 0.20

H_0:P=0.15

H_1:P \neq 0.15

We use the formula for Test statistic, that is given by,

z= \frac{p-P}{\sqrt{\frac{P-(1-P)}{n}}}

z= \frac{0.20-0.15}{\sqrt{\frac{0.15(1-0.15)}{200}}}

z= 1.98

We see that our P-value: 0.048 (From the Table)

We note that p-value is less than 0.05, so we should to rejecyt the null hypothesis and conclude that the calim is doubtful

Answer:

12. -11

13. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

12. First recall the order of operations (BEDMAS): Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction

For question 12 there is a division and its priority is before other operations in the equation so you must divide 16/-2 first which gives you -8.

From there because addition and subtraction is on the same level of order, you would do the question straight as it is shown (but replace 16/-2 with -8.

Your new equation is -10-8+7 = -11

13. follow the same as above using BEDMAS. It may help to look at it with additional brackets: ((-68)/(-4)) + ((5 x (-3))

  • keep in mind there’s an addition between the two

Division and multiplication is on the same level in BEDMAS so first divide -68/-4 = 17

Second multiply 5 x -3 = -15

Now you can combine the two answers using addition: 17 + (-15) = 2
