The ages of three siblings are consecutive integers. The sum of their ages is 42. Calculate their ages. *
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

13, 14, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = age of one of the siblings

Since the age of the siblings are consecutive integers, the age of the next sibling would be x + 1 and the age of the third sibling would be x + 2

x +( x +1) + (x +2) = 42

3x + 3 = 42

collect like terms and solve for x

x = 13

The age of the first sibling is 13

The age of the second sibling is x + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14

The age of the third sibling is x + 2 = 13 + 2 = 15

A cruise ship is currently 20 kilometers away from its port and is traveling away from the port at 5 kilometers per hour . The f
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The ship will be 37.5\ km far from its port 3.5 hours from now

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

The function is y=5x +20 relates the number of kilometers y the ship will be from its port x hours from now, it has a form y=vt+y_{0} \ where \ y\ is\ final\ distance\\v\ is\ velocity\ in\ km/h,\ t\ is\ time\\and\ y_{0}\ is\ initial\ distance.

As the function is clearly defined, we only have to evaluate it for x=3.5, so y(3.5)=5(3.5)+20=17.5+20=37.5 \ km is the distance between the cruise ship and its port after 3.5 hours.

Solve the following problems:<br> Find x, y
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

x=1.25, y=1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles formed (one triangle with side lengths of 5, 7, 8 and another with sides 5+x, 10, and 7+y) are similar, because they share the same angle measures.

Now, 2 sides given that we can compare ratios with are the side with length 8, and the side with length 10. 10/8= 1.25, which is the ratio of the sides on these 2 triangles.

Now we want to find what the side '5+x' is equal to. To do that we can use our  ratio, and multiply 5 by 1.25 to find '5+x'. This is 6.25. To find x, all we need to do is subtract 5 from 6.25, which is 1.25.

Let's find y now. Do the same thing that we did with the side '5+x'; find what '7+y' is by multiplying 7 by 1.25, which is 8.75. 8.75-7= 1.75.

Hope this helps! :)

Awarding road contracts. A state Department of Transportation (DOT) recently claimed that each of five bidders received equal co
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

a) Hence, the probability of this event occurring if, in fact, the DOT's claim is true

= 3/10 = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The concept applied here is combinatorics ; nCr = n!/(n - r)!r!

we are told that out of 5bidders, Three of the bidders were large construction conglomerates

and two were small specialty contractors.

selecting two recipients with tree of the bidders were large construction conglomerates 3C2

= 3!/(3-2)!2!

= 3

Similarly, selecting the two small casualty contractor from the total of 5bidders = 5C2

= 5!/(5-2)!2!

= 10

Hence, the probability of this event occurring if, in fact, the DOT's claim is true

= 3/10 = 0.3

b) if DOTs claim is not true ( probability of failure) = 1 - 0.3

= 0.7 , this value implies that the probability 0.3 is largely compatible and a compliment of the 0.7 and as such it is consistent with the DOTs claim that the selection was random.
