Time = distance/speed

The distance between the walkers increases at the rate of (8 mph) -(2 mph) = 6 mph. That distance will be 4.5 mi after ...
  (4.5 mi)/(6 mi/h) = 4.5/6 h = 3/4 h

In 3/4 hour they will be 4.5 miles apart.

You want to put 2500 in a simple interest account it has a 4 % annual interest rate how long will it take you to earn $200 in in
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Principal = 2500

Let Rate = 4%

Let time = x

Simple Interest = Principal x time x rate

200 = 2500 x 4/100 x 'x'

200 = 100x

200/100 = x

2 = x

Bruce is going to call one person from his contacts at random. He has 25 total contacts. 20 of those contacts are from his neigh
Naya [18.7K]
<h3>P(call a person not from his neighborhood) = (\frac{1}{5} )</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total number of contacts in the list if Bruce  = 25 contacts

The total number of neighbors in the contact = 20 people

Now, let E: Event of calling a person from his neighborhood

So, P(E) = \frac{\textrm{Total Favorable Outcomes}}{\textrm{Total Outcomes}}  = \frac{20}{25} = (\frac{4}{5})

So, the probability of calling a person from his neighborhood  is (\frac{4}{5} )

⇒P(E) = (\frac{4}{5} )

Now,as we know: P(E)  + P(not E) = 1

So, the probability of NOT calling a person from neighborhood

= 1 -  probability of calling a person from his neighborhood

= 1 - (\frac{4}{5}) = \frac{5-4}{5}   = (\frac{1}{5})

⇒P( not E) = (\frac{1}{5} )

Hence,  P(call a person not from his neighborhood) = (\frac{1}{5} )

. Roger uses his truck to plow parking lots when it snows. He wants to find a model to predict the number of service calls he ca
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

4.1 calls

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of calls (c) that Roger expects to get as a function of how many inches of snow fall (s), is described by the following linear model:

c(s)=0.8s+0.29

Therefore, when s = 4.7 inches, the number of service calls that Roger expects is:

c(4.7)=0.8*4.7+0.29\\c(4.7)=4.05\ calls

Rounding to the nearest tenth, Roger will get about 4.1 calls.
