Sathish is going on a 2100-kilometer road trip with 2 friends, whom he will pick up 150 kilometers after he begins the trip and

drop off when there are 150 kilometer remaining. The car consumes 6 liters of gas for every 100 kilometers, and gas costs $1.20 per liter.
Sathish will pay for all of the gas when he is alone in the car, but he and his friends will split the cost evenly when they are together.

How much will Sathish pay for gas?

Sathish has to pay \$\text{ }64.8 for the gas consumption while travelling on a \text{2100 kilometers} road trip.

Further explanation:

On a \text{2100 kilometers} road trip, Sathish is alone in his car for first \text{150 kilometers} and the last \text{150 kilometers} such that the total distance that Satish travelled alone is,

\fbox{\begin\\150 + 150 = 300{\text{ kilometers}}\end{minispace}}

So, the distance for which Sathish travels with his two friends is,

\fbox{\begin\\2100 - 300 = 1800{\text{ kilometers}}\end{minispace}}

The cost of one litre gas consumption is \$\text{ }1.2.

Since it is given that the car consumes \text{6 litres} of gas for every \text{100 kilometers} then the gas consumption for a kilometer is obtained as,

\text{Gas consumed per kilometer}= \frac{6}{100}

Therefore, when Sathish is travelling alone in his car, the gas consumption is obtained as shown below.

\fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\text{Gas consumption when Sathish is alone=}\dfrac{6}{100}\times 300 = 18\text{ litres}\\\\\end{minispace}}

Then the price for this journey will be owned by Sathish alone and is calculated as \fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\\18\times 1.2\\\end{minispace}}.

Now, for the remaining \text{1800 kilometers} when Sathish is travelling with his two friends, the gas consumption is obtained as,

\fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\\\text{Gas consumption when Sathish is with his two friends=}\dfrac{6}{100}\times 1800 = 108\text{ litres}\\\\\end{minispace}}

The total price of gas consumption during the journey travelled by Sathish with his friends will be {108}\times 1.2.

Then the price of this journey will be divided among the three such that Sathish has to pay the amount calculated as \fbox{\begin{minispace} \\\dfrac{108\times 1.2}{3}\\\end{minispace}}.

Hence, the total amount that is to be paid by Sathish is,

\text{Sathish's Share} = (18 \times 1.2) + 108 \times \left( 1.2 \times \dfrac{1}{3}\right) \\

\text{Sathish's Share} = 21.6 + (108 \times 0.4) \\

\text{Sathish's Share} = 21.6 + 43.2 \\

\text{Sathish's Share} = 64.8 \\

Therefore, Sathish has to pay \fbox{\begin\$\text{ }64.8\end{minispace}}.

Math scores on the SAT exam are normally distributed with a mean of 514 and a standard deviation of 118. If a recent test-taker
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Probability that the student scored between 455 and 573 on the exam is 0.38292.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Math scores on the SAT exam are normally distributed with a mean of 514 and a standard deviation of 118.

<u><em>Let X = Math scores on the SAT exam</em></u>

So, X ~ Normal(\mu=514,\sigma^{2} =118^{2})

The z score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

                              Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~  N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean score = 514

           \sigma = standard deviation = 118

Now, the probability that the student scored between 455 and 573 on the exam is given by = P(455 < X < 573)

       P(455 < X < 573) = P(X < 573) - P(X \leq 455)

       P(X < 573) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{573-514}{118} ) = P(Z < 0.50) = 0.69146

       P(X \leq 2.9) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{455-514}{118} ) = P(Z \leq -0.50) = 1 - P(Z < 0.50)

                                                         = 1 - 0.69146 = 0.30854

<em>The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.50 in the z table which has an area of 0.69146.</em>

Therefore, P(455 < X < 573) = 0.69146 - 0.30854 = <u>0.38292</u>

Hence, probability that the student scored between 455 and 573 on the exam is 0.38292.

A person is supposed to drink half a gallon of water every day.abby drank 15 small cups today if the capacity of the cup is 3.5
Yuki888 [10]

He needs to drink 3 cups MORE to meet his daily requirement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, as given in the question:

The total need for water = half a gallon = 0.5 gallon

1 gallon  = 128 oz

So, 0.5 gallon = 128/2  = 64 oz

Now, the capacity of 1 cup = 3.5 oz

The number of cups already drank by the person = 15 cups

So, the total amount of water already taken by him

= 15 cups x Capacity of 1 cup

= 15 x (3.5 oz)  = 52.5 oz

So, the amount of water left to be drink by him

= Total Need - Already covered

= 64 oz - 52 . 5 oz  =  11.5 oz

Now, as 1 cup = 3.5 oz

So, 11.5 oz  has ( \frac{11.5}{3.5} )cups  = 3.28 cup≈ 3 cups

Hence, he needs to drink 3 cups MORE to meet his daily requirement.
