We know that time is distance over velocity, that is:

time = distance / velocity

t = d / v

 

Now from the given:

d / 460 + d / 500 = 4.8

Now we can find for d:

d = 4.8 / [1/460 + 1/500]

d = 1150 miles

 

So the time of each flight is:

flight = 1150 / 460 = 2.5 hours

<span>return flight = 1150 / 500 = 2.3 hours</span>

Answer:

2.5 hours at 460 mph

2.3 hours at 500 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance is velocity times time

d = v * t

We know that both flights have the same distance, so we can express the information with equations:

d = 460 * t1

d = 500 * t2

Where t1 is the time at 460 mph and t2 is the time at 500 mph. We know that:

t = t1 + t2, then

t2 = t - t1

where:

t is the total time and it is 4.8 hours

Now we only have to substitute in the equation:

<em>460 * t1 = 500 * t2</em>

and we know that t2 = 4.8 - t1; so:

<em>460 * t1 = 500 * (4.8 - t1)</em>

Solving:

<em>460 t1 = 2400 - 500 t1</em>

<em>460 t1 + 500 t1 = 2400</em>

<em>960 t1 = 2400</em>

<em>t1 = 2400/960</em>

t1 = 2.5 hours at 460 mph

<em>t2 = 4.8-2.5</em>

t2 = 2.3 hours at 500 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The x intercept is the point that touches the x axis

The y-intercept is the point that touches the y-axis

So...

The x-intercept = (0, -40)

The y-intercept = (0, 15)

shutvik [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 3 ---------------- eqn 1

y = -6x + 3 ------------- eqn 2

Substitute y for -6x + 3 in equation 1

x + -6x + 3 = 3

x - 6x + 3 = 3

-5x + 3 = 3

Collect like terms

-5x = 3 - 3

-5x = 0

Divide both sides by -5

x = 0

Hope this helped!

A cooler has 12 apple juices and 15 grape juices. 9 of the apple juices are sugar free and 5 of the grape juices are sugar free.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

<em>The probability that it is grape juice, given that the juice is not sugar free is </em><em>0.769 or 76.9%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

P(\text{Grape }|\text{ Not sugar free})=\dfrac{P(\text{Grape }\cap \text{ Not sugar free})}{P(\text{Not sugar free})}

A cooler has 12 apple juices and 15 grape juices. So total 27 juices are there.

Out of 12 apple juices, 9 of the apple juices are sugar free, so 3 are not sugar free.

Out of 15 grape juices, 5 of the grape juices are sugar free, so 10 are not sugar free. So,

P(\text{Grape }\cap \text{ Not sugar free})=\dfrac{10}{27}

P(\text{Not sugar free})=\dfrac{10+3}{27}=\dfrac{13}{27}

Putting the values,

P(\text{Grape }|\text{ Not sugar free})=\dfrac{P(\text{Grape }\cap \text{ Not sugar free})}{P(\text{Not sugar free})}=\dfrac{\frac{10}{27}}{\frac{13}{27}}=\dfrac{10}{13}=0.769
