The speed to the island is x. The speed to return is x+5.

The distance is the same so, 2.5 multiplied by x = 2×(x+5).

It took 2.5 hrs to get there and 2 hrs to return. Now all we have to do is solve.

 2.5*x = 2x + 10

 .5x = 10
x=20

 Therefore, the distance between islands is 2.5 × 20 = 50 miles.

hope this helps!

The inner circle circumference is 52 ft. the distance between the inner and the outer circle is 8ft. By how many ft is the outer
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The outer circle is 16 feet larger than the inner circle (68 - 52).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the inner circle circumference is 52 feet, and the distance between the inner and the outer circle is 8 feet, to determine by how many ft is the larger outer circle, the following calculation must be performed:

The radius of a circle is equal to half its diameter. Therefore, the radius of the inner circle is 26 feet. Thus, if the distance between the two circles is 8 feet, the radius of the outer circle is 34 feet (26 + 8). Therefore, the diameter of this circle is 68 feet (34 x 2).

This implies that the outer circle is 16 feet larger than the inner circle (68 - 52).

???????help for extra points
Ghella [55]

Answer:

-84 + 10i

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you want to take out the negative symbol from the square root, and we know that i = sqrt(-1) (sqrt = square root)

so the equation would look like

i x sqrt(100) - 84

solve for the square root of 100 which is 10

now the equation is

10i - 84

that is the answer and you can flip the equations so it can look like the actual answer

-84 + 10i

inysia [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that Etsy is an e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items and supplies, as well as unique factory-manufactured items. A shop owner on Etsy sells printed t-shirts and she wants to know what level of inventory she should maintain for the month of January. She gathers the January inventories of 8 other shop owners who sell printed t-shirts on Etsy. Their t-shirt inventories are listed below.

59 84 90 54 42 45 77 85

a) Mean = total /8 = 536/8 = 67

For median arrange in ascending order

42 45 54 59 77 84 85 90

Middle entries are 59 and 77

b) Median = average of 59 and 77 = 68

c) If highest changes to 100, data set becomes

42 45 54 59 77 84 85 100

sum increases by 10 i.e. 546

Mean = 546/8 = 68.25

Median will not change remain the same = 68

Mean increases and median stays the same

d) If Var = 369.1429

std dev = square root of variance

= 19.2131

e) Part b answer is the II quartile

f) Mean = 67 and median = 68

Mean < median

So negatively skewed shape

The lengths of brook trout caught in a certain Colorado stream are normally distributed with a mean of 14 inches and a standard
mezya [45]

Answer:

0.6563 or 65.63% of brook trout caught will be between 12 and 18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean trout length (μ) = 14 inches

Standard deviation (σ) = 3 inches

The z-score for any given trout length 'X' is defined as:  

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}  e interval

For a length of X =12 inches:

z=\frac{12-14}{3}\\z=-0.6667

According to a z-score table, a score of -0.6667 is equivalent to the 25.25th percentile of the distribution.

For a length of X =18 inches:

z=\frac{18-14}{3}\\z=1.333

According to a z-score table, a score of 1.333 is equivalent to the 90.88th percentile of the distribution.

The proportion of trout caught between 12 and 18 inches, assuming a normal distribution, is the interval between the equivalent percentile of each length:

P(12\leq X\leq 18) = 90.88\% - 25.25\%\\P(12\leq X\leq 18) = 65.63\%
