Answer:

Chucks spent 8 minutes running and 15 minutes swimming

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the amount of time Chuck spends on individual activities.

since the total time spent for the burning is 23 minutes;

then ;

r + w = 23 ••••••••(i)

Now, the number of calories burnt to running for r minutes will be r * 35 = 35w calories

The number of calories burnt to swimming for w minutes will be w * 30 = 30w calories

The addition of both gives the total calories burnt;

Hence;

35r + 30w = 730 ••••••••(ii)

So we have two equations to solve simultaneously ;

From i; r = 23-w

Substitute this into ii

35(23-w) + 30w = 730

805 -35w + 30w = 730

35w -30w = 805-730

5w = 75

w = 75/5

w = 15 minutes

but r = 23 - w

r = 23 -15

r = 8 minutes

In the Hawaiian Beach Boy surf board vendor scenario, what if the fine was increased to $190 but the probability of a fine decre
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$190.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value is the sum of each possible income multiplied by its probability.

There's a 5% chance that the vendor makes $200 and loses $190 (net gain of $10).

There's a 95% chance that the vendor makes $200 and loses $0 (net gain of $200).

So the expected value is:

Exp(RS) = $10 × 0.05 + $200 × 0.95

Exp(RS) = $190.50

What does the variable represent in the equation 6-8p=38
GalinKa [24]

Solving the equation  6-8p=38 we get value of p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of p in the equation 6-8p=38

Solving to find value of p:

6-8p=38\\Adding\,\,-6\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\6-8p-6=38-6\\-8p=32\\Divide\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,-8\\\frac{-8p}{-8}=\frac{32}{-8}\\p=-4

So, solving the equation  6-8p=38 we get value of p = -4

Which expression means “ multiply 3 by the sum of m and p “
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

3m+3p

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of m and p is expressed as;

m + p (sum means addition)

If 3 is multiplied  by the sum, this is expressed as;

3(m+p)

Expand

3m + 3p

Hence the required expression is 3m+3p
