If a train leaves the station at 7:00 AM and travels at 56 mph, at what time would it arrive at the next town that is 450 miles

away?

ELEN [110]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple motion problem.  Believe me, they get much harder!  The distance formula is

d = rt

We want to know, basically, how long it will take this train traveling 56 mph to go 450 miles.  We have the r, rate, and the d, distance:

450 = 56t so

t = 8.0

That means it will take 8 hours for the train to travel that far.  If it leaves at 7 am, 8 hours after that will put it in the next town at approximately 3pm.

a right triangle has a hypotenuse of 15cm. what are possible lengths for the two legs of the triangle? Explain your reasoning. p
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Two possible lengths for the legs A and B are:

B = 1cm, A = 14.97cm

Or:

B = 9cm, A = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle rectangle, Pythagorean's theorem says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

Then if the two legs of the triangle are A and B, and the hypotenuse is H, we have:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

If we know that H = 15cm, then:

A^2 + B^2 = (15cm)^2

Now, let's isolate one of the legs:

A = √( (15cm)^2 - B^2)

Now we can just input different values of B there, and then solve the value for the other leg.

Then if we have:

B = 1cm

A = √( (15cm)^2 - (1cm)^2) = 14.97

Then we could have:

B = 1cm

A = 14.97cm

Now let's try with another value of B:

if B = 9cm, then:

A = √( (15cm)^2 - (9cm)^2) = 12 cm

Then we could have:

B = 9cm

A = 12cm

So we just found two possible lengths for the two legs of the triangle.

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points
NNADVOKAT [17]

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

95)

(-13,\ -10)\to x_1=-13,\ y_1=-10\\(16,\ 16)\to x_2=16,\ y_2=16

substitute:

m=\dfrac{16-(-10)}{16-(-13)}=\dfrac{16+10}{16+13}=\dfrac{26}{29}

96)

(6,\ -16)\to x_1=6,\ y_1=-16\\(-15,\ 9)\to x_2=-15,\ y_2=9

substitute:

m=\dfrac{9-(-16)}{-15-6}=\dfrac{25}{-21}=-\dfrac{25}{21}

97)

(12,\ -11)\to x_1=12,\ y_1=-11\\(14,\ -12)\to x_2=14,\ y_2=-12

substitute:

m=\dfrac{-12-(-11)}{14-12}=\dfrac{-12+11}{2}=-\dfrac{1}{2}

OK. I think you already know how to solve it. I will give short solutions now.

98)

m=\dfrac{15-(-3)}{8-(-14)}=\dfrac{18}{22}=\dfrac{9}{11}

99)

m=\dfrac{3-(-5)}{-7-3}=\dfrac{8}{-10}=-\dfrac{4}{5}

100)

m=\dfrac{-8-8}{-11-0}=\dfrac{-16}{-11}=\dfrac{16}{11}

101)

m=\dfrac{13-(-5)}{-13-(-13)}=\dfrac{18}{0}!!!-\boxed{NOT\ EXIST}

102)

m=\dfrac{18-1}{-10-2}=\dfrac{17}{-12}=-\dfrac{17}{12}

103)

m=\dfrac{19-14}{7-(-17)}=\dfrac{5}{24}

104)

m=\dfrac{12-0}{-6-4}=\dfrac{12}{-10}=-\dfrac{6}{5}

A 90% confidence interval for u using the sample results X = 131.2, s=55 , and n= 50 Round your answer for the point estimate to
Ilya [14]

Answer:

131.2 ;

12.8 ;

(118.4, 144)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

X = 131.2, s=55 , and n= 50

Point estimate of the mean :

Since, sample size is large (n > 30) ; the sample mean = population mean according to the center limit theorem :

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s / sqrt(n)

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

Margin of Error : 1.645 * (55 / sqrt(50))

Margin of Error : 1.645 * 7.7781745

Margin of Error = 12.795097

Margin of Error = 12.8

The confidence interval (C.I) :

C.I = x ± margin of error

C. I = 131.2 ± 12.8

(131.2 - 12.8) ; (131.2 + 12.8)

(118.4, 144)
