When the Slowpoke Marathon began, the ratio of runners to joggers was 2 to 19. A total of 4200 participants began the race (each

either a runner or a jogger, but not both), but 450 joggers dropped out of the race along the way. Out of the remaining participants, who are runners, 16 % of them dropped out of the race. If everyone else finished the race, then what was the simplified ratio of runners to joggers among those who finished the race?

Answer:

  168 : 1675

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning of the race, the number of ratio units was 2+19 = 21, so each stands for 4200/21 = 200 participants. Then there were ...

  • 2×200 = 400 runners
  • 19×200 = 3800 joggers

At the end of the race, there were 450 fewer joggers, so ...

  3800 -450 = 3350 . . . joggers

16% of the 400 runners is 64 runners, so with that many dropping out, the remaining number of runners was ...

  400 -64 = 336

So, at the end of the race the ratio of runners to joggers was ...

  336 : 3350 = 168 : 1675

Answer:

168 : 1675

Step-by-step explanation:

2/21 × 4200 = 400 runners

19/21 × 4200 = 3800 joggers

3800 - 450 = 3350 joggers

400 - 16%(400) = 336 runners

336 : 3350

168 : 1675

OLga [1]

Complete Question

The complete is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The correct option are option 2 and option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 12  

    The test statistics is  t \approx 1.434

    The level of significance is  \alpha = 0.05

    The  rejection region is    t>1.796

   The null hypothesis H_o: \mu_d=0

    The alternative hypothesis is  H_a : \mu_d >0

 From the given values we see that t <  1.796(i.e   1.434 < 1.796 ) which implies that t is not within the rejection region

  Hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is that there is insufficient evidence to suggest that that the husbands are significantly older than the wife.

AB lies on a number line. The coordinate of point A is -6. Given that AB=20, what are two possible coordinates for point B?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

<em>-26 or 14</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Coordinate of point A is -6.

Length of AB = 20

To find:

Coordinates for the point B = ?

Solution:

We are given that:

AB = 20

In other words, we can use modulus function to define the distance between A and B:

|Coordinates of B - Coordinates of A| = 20

Let the coordinates of B = x

Kindly refer to the attached image for the given situation.

Point B might be either on the left or on the right side of A.

That means:

|x-(-6)| = 20\\\Rightarrow |x+6|=20

Now, let us have a look at the modulus function:

|y|=\left \{ {-{y}\ if\ y0} \right.

So,

|x+6|=\left \{ {-{(x+6)}\ if\ (x+6)0} \right.

(x+6 ) =20\\\Rightarrow x =14

-(x+6 ) =20\\\Rightarrow x =-26

Therefore, the answer is:

<em>-26 or 14</em>

(8x^3y^3z^4)(7x^6z^6)
VikaD [51]
First you multiple 8x times 7x and get 56x and since 3y doesn't have another y so u Leave tht as 3y then you multiply 3z times 6z and get 18z then you multiply 4 times 6 and get 24 (56x^3y)(18z^24)

A truck can travel 80 miles in the same time that ot takes a car to travel 90 miles. If the truck’s rate is 5 miles per hour slo
SIZIF [17.4K]
The truck was going 40 miles per hour

The amount of time was 2 hours:
(90-80: 10)(10/2=5)

80 divided by two is 40


The car was going 45 miles per hour


(90-80:10)(10/2=5)

90 divided by two is 45
