You are wakeboarding on a river. You travel 2 miles downstream to a marina for supplies, and then you travel 3 miles upstream to

Zielflug [23.3K]

Let x represent the speed of of boat.

We have been given that the river current is 3 miles per hour.

The speed of boat upstream will be $x-3$ .

The speed of boat downstream would be $x+3$ .

$\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

We have been given that you travel 2 miles downstream to a marina for supplies, and then you travel 3 miles upstream to a dock.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{x+3}+\frac{3}{x-3}$

Since the speed of the boat is 18 miles per hour, so we will substitute $x=18$ in above equation and solve for time.

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{18+3}+\frac{3}{18-3}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{21}+\frac{3}{15}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{21}+\frac{1}{5}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{2\cdot 5}{21\cdot 5}+\frac{1\cdot 21}{5\cdot 21}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{10}{105}+\frac{21}{105}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{31}{105}$

$\text{Time}=0.295238095$

Since time is in hours, so let us convert our given time in minutes.

1 hour = 60 minutes.

$\text{Time}=0.295238095\times 60\text{ minutes}$

$\text{Time}=17.7142857\text{ minutes}$

Rounding to nearest tenth of minute.

$\text{Time}\approx 17.7\text{ minutes}$

Therefore, it will take approximately 17.7 minutes for the boat to take the trip.

( 3 1 ) 2 +3 2 =left parenthesis, start fraction, 1, divided by, 3, end fraction, right parenthesis, squared, plus, 3, squared

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

I guess that we have the equation:

(1/3)^2 + 3^2 =

And we want to solve it.

Here just remember that:

3^2 = 3*3 = 9

then:

(1/3)^2 = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9

replacing these in the expression, we get:

(1/3)^2 + 3^2 = 1/9 + 9

If we want to write this as a single fraction, we can rewrite:

1/9 + 9 = 1/9 + (9/9)*9

= 1/9 + 81/9 = (1 + 81)/9 = 82/9

The clearance between a pin and the collar around it is important for the proper performance of a disc drive for small computers

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

(a) The distribution of (Y - X) is N (0.001, 0.0005).

(b) The probability that the pin will not fit inside the collar is 0.023.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is defined as the diameter of the pin and the random variable Y is defined as the diameter of the collar.

The distribution of X and Y is:

$X\sim N(0.525, 0.0003)\\Y\sim N(0.526, 0.0004)$

The random variables X and Y are independent of each other.

(a)

Compute the expected value of (Y - X) as follows:

$E(Y-X)=E(Y)-E(X)=0.526-0.525=0.001$

The mean of (Y - X) is 0.001.

Compute the variance of (Y - X) as follows:

$V(Y-X)=V(Y)+V(X)-2Cov(X,Y)\\=V(Y)+V(X);\ X\ and\ Y\ are\ independent\\=0.0003^{2}+0.0004^{2}\\=0.00000025$

$SD(Y-X)=\sqrt{0.00000025}=0.0005$

The standard deviation of (Y - X) is 0.0005.

Thus, the distribution of (Y - X) is N (0.001, 0.0005).

(b)

Compute the probability of [(Y - X) ≤ 0] as follows:

$P(Y-X\leq 0)=P(\frac{(Y-X)-\mu_{Y-X}}{\sigma_{Y-X}}\leq \frac{0-0.001}{0.0005})=P(Z$

*Use a z-table for the probability value.

Thus, the probability that the pin will not fit inside the collar is 0.023.
