Two airplanes left the same airport and arrived at the same destination at the same time. The first airplane left at 8:00 a.m. a

nd traveled at an average rate of 496 mph. The second airplane left at 8:30 a.m. and traveled at an average rate of 558 mph. How many hours did it take the first plane to travel to the destination?
Let x represent the number of hours that the first plane traveled.
Enter an equation that can be used to solve this problem in the first box.
Solve for x and enter the number of hours in the second box.

First plane: 496x
<span>Second plane:  558( x - 1/2) </span>

<span>Equation: 496x = 558( x - 1/2) </span>

<span>Solving  x = 9/2 ,  or  x = 4.5 hours.

Hope this helps.</span>

John is buying food for his cat, Fluffy. Fluffy LOVES a fancy wet food which costs $1.50 per day. Fluffy will also tolerate dry
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of days that fluffy eats wet food in a week and y represents the number of days that fluffy eats dry food in a week.

Hence:

x + y = 7                    (1)

Also, John wants to spend at most $9.00 on cat food each week. Hence:

1.5x + 0.75y ≤ 9       (2)

The list of possible points after solving graphically are:

(0,7), (6,0), (0,12) and (5, 2). If x,y > 0, then the point that satisfies the inequality is:

(5, 2) i.e. 5 wet food and 2 dry food

Determine whether the events E and F are independent or dependent. Justify your answer. ​(a) ​E: A person living at least 70 yea
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

a) E & F are dependent because regularly handling venomous snakes can affect the probability of a person living at least 70 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent Events. When two events are said to be independent of each other, what this means is that the probability that one event occurs in no way affects the probability of the other event occurring.

Two events are dependent if the outcome or occurrence of the first affects the outcome or occurrence of the second so that the probability is changed.

Since Venomous snakes are species of the suborder Serpents that are capable of producing venom, which they use for killing prey, for defense, and to assist with digestion of their prey and the older you get the less active you become, Hence the handle of venomous snakes can affect the probability of a person living at least 70 years

Brian rolls 2 fair dice and adds the results from each. Work out the probability of getting a total that is prime. Answer THIS P
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

5/12 or 15/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he rolls two dice, he has a total probability of 6 times 6 = 36. The pairs, that he could add up to primes are (1,1), (2,1) * 2 (since he can get 1,2 as well), (1,4) * 2, (2,3) * 2, (3,4) * 2, (5, 2) * 2, (6,1) * 2, (5, 6) * 2. This is 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2, which is equal to 15. This is a total of 15/36 possible ways, which is also equal to 5/12.
