You're flying from Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) to an undisclosed location 201 km south and 194 km east. Mt. Rainier is locat

ed approximately 56 km east and 40 km south of JBLM. If you are flying at a constant speed of 800 km/hr, how long after you depart JBLM will you be the closest to Mt. Rainier?

Answer:

The answer is "0.0846276476".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let all the origin(0,0) of JBLM be  

Let the y-axis be north along with the vector j unit.  

But along the + ve x-axis is east, and all along with the vector unit i.  

And at (194,-201) that undisclosed position is  

Mt. Ris (56,-40) at  

Let the moment it gets close to the Mt. rainier bet.  

Oh, then,  

If we know, the parallel to the direction from the point was its nearest one to a path to a point,

Calculating slope:

\to m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\

points:  (0,0) and (194,-201)

\to m=\frac{-201 -0 }{194-0}\\\\\to m=\frac{-201}{194}\\\\\to m=-1.03

equation of the line:

\to y= mx+c\\\\\to y= -1.03\ x+c

when the slope is perpendicular= -\frac{1}{m}

                                                     = - \frac{1}{ -1.03}\\\\= \frac{1}{ 1.03}\\\\= 0.97

perpendicular equation:

\to y-(-40)=0.97  \times (x-56) \\\\\to y+40=0.97  \times (x-56) \\\\

Going to solve both of the equations to have the intersection point,  

We get to the intersect level in order to be at

(47.16,-48.5748)

so the distance from origin:

= \sqrt{(47.16^2+48.5748^2)}\\\\= \sqrt{2224.0656 + 2359.5112}\\\\=\sqrt{4583.5768}\\\\=67.7021181

\to time =\frac{distance }{speed}

= \frac{67.7021181}{800}\\\\= 0.0846276476

State a counterexample to the conjecture below if a number is divisible by 6 and 2 then there’s is divisible by 12
siniylev [52]
Any number that is divisible by 6 is already divisible by 2, but is not necessarily divisible by 12.

Counterexamples include: 6, 18, 30, 42, 54, and so on. You can find more by multiplying 6 by any odd number. However, multiplying 6 by an even number provides another "2" that would make it divisible by 12.

A bag holds 13 marbles. 6 are blue, 2 are green, and 5 are red. you select a marble from the bag. what is the probability that t
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ \frac{8}{13} }}

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is found by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of outcomes.

P= \frac{favorable \ outcomes}{total \ outcomes}

For this problem, the favorable outcome is selecting a blue or green marble. There are 8 outcomes for this because there are 6 outcomes for blue and 2 fr green.

The total outcomes are all the marbles. Each marble could be an outcome, so there are 13 outcomes (1 for each marble).

P(blue \ or \ green) = \frac{8}{13}

This fraction cannot be reduced, so the probability of selecting a blue or green marble is <u>8/13.</u>

The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the construction of a new community. A political study took a sample of 800 voters i
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

A political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than  30%, so then that represent our claim and needs to be on the alternative hypothesis.

Based on this the correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: p \leq 0.3

Alternative hypothesis p >0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given from the problem:

n= 800 the random sample of voters selected from the town

\hat p = 0.34 represent the proportion of residents favored construction

p_o = 0.30 represent the value desired to test.

A political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than  30%, so then that represent our claim and needs to be on the alternative hypothesis.

Based on this the correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: p \leq 0.3

Alternative hypothesis p >0.3

And in order to test this hypothesis we can use a one sample z test for a population proportion and the statistic would be given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

And with the data given we have:

z=\frac{0.34 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{800}}}=2.469
