Answer:

1.4 hour, or 1 hr 24 min

Step-by-step explanation:

The trains separate at the rate (80 + 90) mph.

Recall that distance = rate times time, or time = distance / rate.

                                            238 mi

Here, the elapsed time is  -------------- = 1.4 hr, or 1 hr 24 min

                                             170 mph

A TV report conducted a survey of 947 people in New York City and found that 35% of the population believe that the Yankees will
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

35\% represents the sample proportion of the population

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n  = 947

   The proportion of the population that believes that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year is    k = 35\% = 0.35

From the question we are told the confidence level is  97%

   The lower limit of the confidence level is a = 28%

    The upper limit of the  b = 42%

Generally the sample proportion of this population is mathematically represented as

         \^ p = \frac{a+ b}{2}

=>      \^ p = \frac{28 + 42 }{2}

=>      \^ p = 35\%

Hence  35\% represents the sample proportion

!!25 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!! A recipe calls for 2 cups of pizza sauce. I only want 3/4 OF the full 2 cups. How will I figure out
Nutka1998 [239]

Mathematical Answer: 2cups*3/4 = 1 and 1/2 cups or 1.5 cups.

How to do it while cooking:

  1. Get out a container large enough to hold at least 4 cups sauce
  2. Get out a "1 cup" and "1/2 cup" measuring cup.
  3. Measure out 1 cup of sauce with the "1 cup" measuring cup.
  4. Measure out  1/2 of a cup of sauce with the '1/2 cup' measuring cup.
  5. pour both cups into the larger container.

And there you go you have 3/4 of 2 cups of sauce.

<em>Hoped this helped!</em>

Answer:  6i) 6a² - 2ab

               6ii) -2b³

               6iii) b³ + 7b² - 49b

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

6i)   (a + b)(5a - 3b)             +    (a - 3b)(a - b)

=    5a² - 3ab + 5ab - 3b²   +    a² - ab - 3ab + 3b²

=    5a² + 2ab - 3b²             +   a² - 4ab + 3b²

= 6a² - 2ab

6ii)    (a - b)(a² + b² + ab)              -  (a + b)(a² + b² - ab)

=   a³ + ab² + a²b - ab² - a²b - b³ -  (a³ + ab² - a²b -ab² + a²b + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      -  (a³ + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      - a³ - b³

= -2b³

6iii) (b² - 49)(b + 7)             +     343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b - 343    +    343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b

What is the interest on Rr 20,000 if the interest rate is 15%?
Basile [38]

Answer: Rr.3,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest is the amount that accrues on a principal that was invested or a cost that was incurred.

It is based on a certain interest rate which in this case is 15%.

The principal is Rr. 20,000.

Interest = Principal * Interest rate

= 20,000 * 15%

= Rr.3,000
