Let 'x' represent the total distance from point A to point B
During the first hour he gets 0.25 of the way there: 0.25x
During the second hour he covers an additional 0.2 of the distance: 0.2x
During the third hour, he covers 0.3 of the distance: 0.3x
The total distance the biker traveled is:
0.25x + 0.2x + 0.3x = (0.25 + 0.2 + 0.3)x = 0.75x
The biker has: x - 0.75x = (1 - 0.75)x = 0.25x of the total distance left to go.
(9 x 10 ^(-5)) - (3 x 10^(-16))
Your subtracting to find the difference in size
9 x 10^(-5)
The scale factor is 2.5
let me know if you have any ?s
Answer:
12/13
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes over the total number of outcomes.
Assuming that this is a standard deck of playing cards, there will be 52 cards, and there will be 4 "4" cards.
First, find the number of desired outcomes, and put it over the total number of outcomes.
Out of the total number of outcomes (52), there are 4 outcomes that are not wanted, hence the equation is:
52 - 4 = 48
So out of the 52 possible outcomes, 48 are desired. Set up the fraction and
simplify:
48/52
/4 /4
= 12/13
