Two cyclists, 112 miles apart, start riding toward each other at the same time. One cycles 3 times as fast as the other, and the

y meet after 4 hours of riding.
a. Write an equation using the information as it is given above that can be solved to answer this problem. Use the variable r to represent the speed of the slower cyclist.

b. What are the speeds of the two cyclists? Put both values in the answerbox, separated with a comma, and select the appropriate units.

Answer:

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

r = Speed of b= 7 miles/hr

Speed of a = 3r

Step-by-step explanation:

The cyclist are 112 miles apart

Time traveled by two = 4 hours

Speed of a = 3 * speed of b

If a cylcles 3 times More than b, then a will cover 3*distance of b

But speed = distance/time

Time = 4hours

Total distance=112

a = 3b

3b + b = 112

4b = 112

b = 112/4

b = 28 miles

a = 3b

a = 3*28

a = 84 Miles

They bought traveled 4 hours

Speed of a = 84miles/4 hours

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

Speed of b = 28miles/4 hours

Speed of b = 7 miles/hr

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: C. 28%

A = Pe^{rt}

1649 = 100 \cdot e^{10r}\\16.49 = e^{10r}\\\ln{16.49} = 10r\\r = \frac{\ln{16.49}}{10} = 0.28\\

We need to use Law of sine.

sin A/a = sin C/c
sin A/|CB| = sin C/|AB|

sin A/14 = sin(118⁰)/ 20
sin A = (14*sin(118⁰))/ 20

A=arcsin((14*sin(118⁰))/ 20) ≈ 38⁰

Answer:  There are 108 hammers, and there are 36 screwdrivers. 36×3=108·

Step-by-step explanation: We know that there are more hammers than screwdrivers, so there are 36 screwdrivers but there are 3 times as many hammers so we multiply 36 by 3 to get 108.

liraira [26]

Answer:

<em>A.) There is a 3.4% chance that a random sample of 50 expectant mothers will have a mean age of 26.5 years old or greater if the mean age for a first time mother is 26 years old.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean age for a first time mother is assumed 26 years old (null hypothesis) and <em>p-value</em> of the sample mean (26.5 years ) is found as 0.034.

This is the probability of having first time mother mean age 26.5 or greater <em>under the assumption of null hypothesis. </em>
