Well in her first travel (when she goes to the anther city)
v1= 50mph
d1=100 m
t1=?

t=d/v=100/50=2h

that's meat that she will take 2hours during the first travel 

and total travel time = 3h 

she wants to take only 1 h in her second travel 

v2=?
d2=100 m
t2= 1h

v2= d2 *t2 =100mph

total travel time is 3 hours and 40 minutes so i belive the correct answer is 60mph

A angles of an equilateral triangle are congruent. If x represents the measure of the third angle of the triangle, what is x?
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x is the measure of the third angle and all 3 angles are congruent then

All 3 angles have a measure of x

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°, this

x + x + x = 180 ← is the required equation

3x = 180 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 60

Determine all prime numbers a, b and c for which the expression a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 + c ^ 2 - 1 is a perfect square .
kogti [31]

Answer:

The family of all prime numbers such that a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} -1 is a perfect square is represented by the following solution:

a is an arbitrary prime number. (1)

b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c} (2)

c is another arbitrary prime number. (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From Algebra we know that a second order polynomial is a perfect square if and only if (x+y)^{2} = x^{2} + 2\cdot x\cdot y  + y^{2}. From statement, we must fulfill the following identity:

a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} - 1 = x^{2} + 2\cdot x\cdot y + y^{2}

By Associative and Commutative properties, we can reorganize the expression as follows:

a^{2} + (b^{2}-1) + c^{2} = x^{2} + 2\cdot x \cdot y + y^{2} (1)

Then, we have the following system of equations:

x = a (2)

(b^{2}-1) = 2\cdot x\cdot y (3)

y = c (4)

By (2) and (4) in (3), we have the following expression:

(b^{2} - 1) = 2\cdot a \cdot c

b^{2} = 1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c

b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a\cdot c}

From Number Theory, we remember that a number is prime if and only if is divisible both by 1 and by itself. Then, a, b, c > 1. If a, b and c are prime numbers, then  2\cdot a\cdot c must be an even composite number, which means that a and c can be either both odd numbers or a even number and a odd number. In the family of prime numbers, the only even number is 2.

In addition, b must be a natural number, which means that:

1 + 2\cdot a\cdot c \ge 4

2\cdot a \cdot c \ge 3

a\cdot c \ge \frac{3}{2}

But the lowest possible product made by two prime numbers is 2^{2} = 4. Hence, a\cdot c \ge 4.

The family of all prime numbers such that a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} -1 is a perfect square is represented by the following solution:

a is an arbitrary prime number. (1)

b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c} (2)

c is another arbitrary prime number. (3)

Example: a = 2, c = 2

b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot (2)\cdot (2)}

b = 3

A survey of an urban university (population of 25,450) showed that 870 of 1,100 students sampled supported a fee increase to fun
Katen [24]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase is [0.767, 0.815]. Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for a proportion is given as [p +/- margin of error (E)]

p is sample proportion = 870/1,100 = 0.791

n is sample size = 1,100

confidence level (C) = 95% = 0.95

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 = 5%

critical value (z) at 5% significance level is 1.96.

E = z × sqrt[p(1-p) ÷ n] = 1.96 × sqrt[0.791(1-0.791) ÷ 1,100] = 1.96 × 0.0123 = 0.024

Lower limit of proportion = p - E = 0.791 - 0.024 = 0.767

Upper limit of proportion = p + E = 0.791 + 0.024 = 0.815

95% confidence interval for the proportion of students supporting the fee increase is between a lower limit of 0.767 and an upper limit of 0.815.
