Answer:
2000 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
When the motorboat is moving downstream, its speed relative to the ground is 18 km/h, so its speed relative to the raft is 15 km/h.
When the motorboat is moving upstream, its speed relative to the ground is 12 km/h, so its speed relative to the raft is again 15 km/h.
Converted to m/min, the relative speed is:
15 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 h / 60 min) = 250 m/min
It takes the motorboat 16 minutes to travel to the front of the raft and back. Since the speed is the same in both directions, the motorboat takes 8 minutes to travel the length of the raft.
So the length of the raft is 250×8 = 2000 meters.
Answer:
6.68 %.
Step-by-step explanation:
The standardised z-score = ( 10.95 - 10.5) / 0.3
= 1.5.
Looking up the Normal Distribution tables ( area to the left) 1.5 corresponds to 0.93319 so for a weight above 10.95 the proportion is
1 - 0.93319 = 0.06681
= 6.68%.
