Answer:

The new mean of processed transactions is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The teller averages 5 transactions every 15 minutes.

Taking this to a single transaction basis gives; The teller averages one transaction every 3 minutes.

So, when the time changes to 25 minutes, there is the need to find the number of 3-minutes obtainable from a 25-minute interval

New mean of processed transaction = \frac{25 minutes}{3 minutes} = 8.333

The new mean of transaction every 25 minutes is about 8 transactions

Answer: 8.33/ 8 transactions on the average

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the teller is capable of processing five (5) different transactions on the average every fifteen minutes (15).

This means that he is capable of processing a transaction in three minutes:

15minutes/3transactions

= 3 minutes per transaction.

Judging by this speed ( 3 minutes per transaction); we can deduce the number of transactions the teller is capable of processing on the average in 25 minutes.

Since 3 minutes --------- 1 transaction, in 25 minutes the teller will process :

(25/3) × (1/1)

= 8.333 transactions

approximately 8 transactions.

What is the distance between the lines y = 2x and y = 2x+5? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The distance between both lines is 2.24 units

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no straight method to find the distance between two lines. The distance can be found out by finding a point on one line and then finding the distance of that point from the other line. The y-coordinate of point is obtained by putting any value of x in equation . The x and y combined give us the point.

Given

y=2x\\Putting\ x=1\\y=2(1)\\y=2\\So, the\ point\ on\ y=2x\ is\ (1,2)

We have to find the distance of this point from y=2x+5

y=2x+5\\Subtracting\ y\ from\ both\ sides\\y-y=2x+5-y\\2x-y+5=0

The formula for finding distance of a point (x,y) from a line is:

d=\frac{|Ax+By+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}

A=2

B=-1

C=5

Putting the values in the formula

d=\frac{|(2)(1)+(-1)(2)+5|}{\sqrt{(2)^2+(-1)^2}}\\d=\frac{|2-2+5|}{\sqrt{4+1}}\\d=\frac{|5|}{\sqrt{5}}\\d=\frac{5}{\sqrt{5}}\\d=2.236\ units

Rounding off will give: 2.24 units

The distance between both lines is 2.24 units

Find the value of x.<br> х= 2<br> х= 3<br> х= 33<br> х= 52
nlexa [21]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles

∠ QRT is an external angle, thus

∠ QRT = ∠ RTS + ∠ RST, substitute values

45x = 25x + 57 + x

45x = 26x + 57 ( subtract 26x from both sides )

19x = 57 ( divide both sides by 19 )

x = 3

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=-2x/7+9 and that passes through the point (4,−6)
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

  y = (7/2)x -20

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is in slope-intercept form, so you can read its slope from the equation.

  y = mx + b . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept

  y = -(2/7)x + 9 . . . . . . has slope -2/7

The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this, so will be ...

  m = -1/(-2/7) = 7/2

We can use this and the given point to write the equation in point-slope form.

  y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

We have m = 7/2, (h, k) = (4, -6) so the equation is ...

  y = (7/2)(x -4) -6

  y = (7/2)x -20
