3x-91>-87 AND 17x-16>18

Mathematics

astra-53 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

( 2, ∞ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given compound inequality,

3x-91 > -87 and 17x-16 > 18,

3x > -87 + 91 and 17x > 18 + 16

3x > 4 and 17x > 34

x > \frac{4}{3} and x > 2

Since, if x > \frac{4}{3}

x ∈ ( \frac{4}{3}, ∞ )

If x > 2

x ∈ ( 2, ∞ )

Now, x > \frac{4}{3} and x > 2

\implies (\frac{4}{3}, \infty)\cap (2, \infty)

= ( 2, ∞ )

Hence, the possible solution of the given compound inequality is (2, ∞)

The height of the tunnel at the center is 35ft, and the vertical clearance must be 21 ft at a point of 8ft from the center. Find
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

y=-0.215x^2+35

Step by Step:

Let, h=0,  k=35, x=8, y=21

We know that, the general equation of the parabola.

   y-k = a(x-h)^2

\Rightarrow y=a(x-h)^2+k  .........(i)

Substitute the  value of h, k, x, y in equation (i) and find the value of a.

  21=a(8-0)^2+35

\Rightarrow 21=a\times 8^2+35

\Rightarrow 21=64a+35

\Rightarrow 64a=21-35

\Rightarrow 64a=-14

\Rightarrow a=\frac{-14}{65}

\Rightarrow a=-0.215

Hence, the equation of the parabola is:

y=-0.215x^2+35

Every day your friend commutes to school on the subway at 9 AM. If the subway is on time, she will stop for a $3 coffee on the w
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

1.02% probability of spending 0 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

7.68% probability of spending 3 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

23.04% probability of spending 6 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

34.56% probability of spending 9 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

25.92% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

7.78% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Step-by-step explanation:

For each day, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the subway is on time, or it is not. Each day, the probability of the train being on time is independent from other days. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

The probability that the subway is delayed is 40%. 100-40 = 60% of the train being on time, so p = 0.6

The week has 5 days, so n = 5

She spends 3 dollars on coffee each day the train is on time.

Probabability that she spends 0 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late all 5 days, so it is P(X = 0).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.6)^{0}.(0.4)^{5} = 0.0102

1.02% probability of spending 0 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 3 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 4 days and on time for 1, so it is P(X = 1).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 1) = C_{5,1}.(0.6)^{1}.(0.4)^{4} = 0.0768

7.68% probability of spending 3 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 6 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 3 days and on time for 2, so it is P(X = 2).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{5,2}.(0.6)^{2}.(0.4)^{3} = 0.2304

23.04% probability of spending 6 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 9 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 2 days and on time for 3, so it is P(X = 3).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.6)^{3}.(0.4)^{2} = 0.3456

34.56% probability of spending 9 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 12 dollars on coffee:

This is the probability of the train being late for 1 day and on time for 4, so it is P(X = 4).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 4) = C_{5,4}.(0.6)^{4}.(0.4)^{1} = 0.2592

25.92% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week

Probabability that she spends 15 dollars on coffee:

Probability that the subway is on time all days of the week, so P(X = 5).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.6)^{5}.(0.4)^{0} = 0.0778

7.78% probability of spending 12 dollars on coffee over the course of a five day week
