Answer:

x<-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We multiply by -1 of both sides and change the sense of inequality:

(-1)*(-3(x-5))>(-1)*18

3(x-5)<-18

3 passes by dividing

x-5<-18/3

x-5<-6

5 goes by adding:

x<-6+5

x<-1

Simon drove for 2 1/2 hours to get from his house to the beach. Simon averaged 55 miles per hour on the trip. What is the distan

Sav [38]

Answer:

The distance from Simon's house to the beach is 137.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to the ratio of the distance and the time

Let

s ----> the speed in mph

x ----> the distance in miles

y ---> the time in hours

$s=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$s=55\ mi/h$

$y=2\frac{1}{2}\ h=\frac{2*2+1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\ h$

substitute in the formula and solve for x

$55=\frac{x}{(5/2)}$

$x=(5/2)55\\x=137.5\ mi$

If an object is shot with an initial velocity of 160 ft/sec, what is the smallest initial angle will you need to obtain a horizo

MrRissso [65]

To solve the question we shall use the formula for the range given by:
Horizontal range, R=[v²sin 2θ]/g
plugging in our values we get:
500=[160²×sin 2θ]/10
5000=160²×sin 2θ
0.1953=sin 2θ
thus:
arcsin 0.1953=2θ
11.263=2θ
hence:
θ=5.6315°~5.63

The probability that a radish seed will germinate is 0.7. A gardener plants seeds in batches of

Harlamova29_29 [7]

The standard deviation for the number of seeds germinating in each batch is 1.3

Solution:

In binomial distribution, standard deviation is given as:

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Where "n" is the number of observations

"p" is probability of getting success

We are given that:

Total batches of seed = 8

Probability that a radish seed will germinate is 0.7

Here success is getting radish seed germinated

Then, the standard deviation for the number of seeds germinating in each batch.

Plugging in values in formula, we get

$\sigma=\sqrt{(8)(0.7)(1-0.7)}\\\\=\sqrt{(8)(0.7)(0.3)}\\\\=\sqrt{1.68}\\\\=1.29614\approx1.3$

Therefore the standard deviation for the number of seeds germinating in each batch is 1.3
