Answer:

30 games

Step-by-step explanation:

As a reduced fraction 85% is equal to 85/100 = 17/20. Therefore, the number of games Teddy played yesterday must have been a multiple of 20. Suppose Teddy played 20m games, so he won 17m games.

Also, suppose Teddy played n games today. As a reduced fraction, 94% is equal to 94/100 = 47/50. Since Teddy won every game he played today, we have

(17m + n)/(20m + n) = 47/50

Cross-multiplying, we get 850m + 50n = 940m + 47n. Then 3n = 90m, so n = 30m. Therefore, the minimum number of games that Teddy played today is 30.

The equation we use here is:
(0.85)x +(1.00)y = (0.94)(x + y)
x is for the number of games he played on first day, y is the games on second day. The coefficients are the decimal form of percentages.

Simplify:
0.85x + y = 0.94x + 0.94y \\ \\ 0.06y = 0.09x \\ \\ \frac{6y}{100} = \frac{9x}{100} \\ \\ 6y = 9x \\ \\ 2y = 3x

To find x we need to use the ratio. We have 85/100 as the first day's ratio and because the games needs to be whole, we can simplify this as 17/20. So in first day, he played at least 20 games and won 17 of them.

When we plug the 20 into the equation as x:
2y = 3 \times 20 \\ \\ 2y = 60 \\ \\ y = 30
So he needs to play at least 30 games in order to get his score to 94%.

5. A yacht is cruising at 20 knots at bearing of 185° when a 15 knot wind starts to blow at a bearing of 290°. Find the directio
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

<em>Direction of the boat is 43.05° and the speed is 21.66 knot</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

yacht speed = 20 knots

yacht bearing = 185° = 85°  below the negative horizontal x-axis

wind speed = 15 knots

wind bearing = 290° = 20° above the negative horizontal x-axis

we find the x and y components of the boat velocities

for yacht,

x component = -20 cos 85° = -1.74 knots

y component = -20 sin 85° = -19.92 knots

for the wind,

x component = -15 cos 20° = -14.09 knots

y component = 15 sin 20° = 5.13 knots

total x component  Vx = -1.74 + (-14.09) = -15.83 knots

total y component Vy =  -19.92 + 5.13 = -14.79 knots

Resultant speed of the boat = \sqrt{Vx^{2} + Vy^{2}  }

==> \sqrt{15.83^{2} + 14.79^{2}  } = <em>21.66 knot</em>

<em></em>

direction of boat = tan^{-1} \frac{Vy}{Vx}

==> tan^{-1} \frac{14.79}{15.83} = <em>43.05°</em>

Answer:

0.324

0.068

Step-by-step explanation:

If Russell is 5'9" ; then he is under 6 feets :

Probability = number of forwards under 6 feets / tot number of players

Probability = 120 / 370 = 0.324

Peter is 6'2" ; Peter is over 6 feets ;

Probability that Peter is a guard = (number of guards over 6 feets / total number of players) = 25 / 370 = 0.0676 = 0.068
