Evaluate 5 - 3(-2) + 1-31

Dave can complete a sales route by himself in 4 hours. James can do the same job in 5 hours. How long will it take them to do it

Alexeev081 [22]

We can solve this problem by calculating the individual rate of working and equate it to their total rate of working.

If Dave can complete a sales route in 4 hours, then his working rate is

$\frac{1}{4}$

Also, if James can do it in 5 hours, then his working rate is

$\frac{1}{5}$

Let
$x$
be the hours that both will use to complete the sales route,

Then rate at which both completes this task is
$\frac{1}{x}$

Meaning if we add their individual rates we should get

$\frac{1}{x}$

That is;

$\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{x}$

The LCM is
$20x$

So let us multiply through with the LCM.

$20x \times \frac{1}{4} + 20x \times \frac{1}{5} =20x \times \frac{1}{x}$

$5x + 4x = 20$

We simplify to get,

$9x = 20$

Dividing through by 9 gives;

$x = \frac{20}{9}$

$x = 2\frac{1}{9}$

Therefore the two will complete sales route in
$2 \frac{1}{9}$
hours.

Write the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, with the

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

y = -x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

x1= 0, y1= -1

$slope = \frac{x - x1}{y - y1} = \frac{x - 0}{y - ( - 1)} = \frac{x}{y + 1}$

-1 = x/(y+1)

-1 (y+1) = x

y+1 = -x

y= -x -1

Consider a value to be significantly low if its z score less than or equal to minus−2 or consider a value to be significantly hi

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

If the weight is higher than 5.8886 gr would be considered significantly high

If the weight is lower than 5.6121 gr would be considered significantly low

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(5.75241,0.06281)$
