Answer:
F=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
This is 0.14 to the nearest hundredth
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly we list the parameters;
Drive to school = 40
Take the bus = 50
Walk = 10
Sophomore = 30
Junior = 35
Senior = 35
Total number of students in sample is 100
Let W be the event that a student walked to school
So P(w) = 10/100 = 0.1
Let S be the event that a student is a senior
P(S) = 35/100 = 0.35
The probability we want to calculate can be said to be;
Probability that a student walked to school given that he is a senior
This can be represented and calculated as follows;
P( w| s) = P( w n s) / P(s)
w n s is the probability that a student walked to school and he is a senior
We need to know the number of seniors who walked to school
From the table, this is 5/100 = 0.05
So the Conditional probability is as follows;
P(W | S ) = 0.05/0.35 = 0.1429
To the nearest hundredth, that is 0.14
Answer: 34 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Bobby around 131 minutes and Billy around 111 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the problem it is important to raise equations regarding what happens.
They tell us that Billy (Bi) and Bobby (Bo) can mow the lawn in 60 minutes. That is to say that what they prune in a minute is giving as follows:
1 / Bo + 1 / Bi = 1/60 (1)
They say Billy could mow the lawn only in 20 minutes less than it would take Bobby, therefore
1 / Bi = 1 / (Bo-20) (2)
Replacing (2) in (1) we have:
1 / Bo + 1 / (Bo-20) = 1/60
Resolving
(Bo - 20 + B0) / (Bo * (Bo-20) = 1/60
120 * Bo - 1200 = Bo ^ 2 - 20Bo
Rearranging:
Bo ^ 2 - 140Bo -1200 = 0
Now applying the general equation
Bo = 130.82 or Bo = 9.17, <em>this last value cannot be because Billy took 20 minutes less and neither can he prune faster than the two together</em>, therefore Bobby only takes around 131 minutes and Billy around 111 minutes
Checking with equation 1:
1/131 +1/111 = ~ 1/60
