A train that travels 30 miles in 1/3 hour at a constant speed is going faster than a train that travels 20 miles in 1/2 hour at

a constant speed. Explain or show why.

Answer:

The train going 30 miles in 1/3 hour is going faster than the other train.

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate each rate by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of time it takes to cover that distance:

30 / (1/3) = 90 mph

20 / (1/2) = 40 mph

Find the measure of angle x in the figure below<br><br>A.35°<br>B.47°<br>C.51°<br>D.62°
Dafna11 [192]
First of all, we know that a line is 180°. This means if we add the angles of 61°, 57°, and angle y, we should get 180<span>°.

\sf 61\textdegree +57\textdegree+y=180\textdegree

Simplify:

\sf 118\textdegree +y=180\textdegree

Subtract 118° to both sides:

\sf y=62\textdegree

We also know that all three angles of a triangle add up to 180<span>°. So we have:

\sf 67\textdegree+62\textdegree +x=180\textdegree

Simplify:

\sf 129\textdegree +x=180\textdegree

Subtract 129° to both sides:

\sf x=\boxed{\sf 51\textdegree}

a student Miss 10 problems on an English test and received a grade of 44%. If all the problems were of equal value, how many pro
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a student missed 10 problems on an English test and received a grade of 44%, if all the problems were of equal value, to determine how many problems were on the test the following calculation must be performed:

100 - 44 = 56

56 = 10

100 = X

100 x 10/56 = X

1,000 / 56 = X

17.85 = X

Thus, rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

A company produces electric insulators. The strength of the insulators is important since a broken insulator may cause a short circuit. Unfortunately, the strength varies significantly due to the material. Because of the expense, only a limited number of insulators could be tested. The engineers sampled 25 insulators (From a production run of 200), and conducted a destructive test to determine the force that was required to break the insulators. The mean value of this force was 1723 lbf with a sample standard deviation of 90 lbf. You may approximate the population standard deviation with the sample standard deviation for the following questions. a. Determine if the population is large enough or if a finite population correction (FPC) factor is needed. If so, what is the FPC factor? b. For 95% confidence, determine the margin of error (+ lbf) c. For these conditions, estimate the range of the probable population mean. Provide lower and upper values. For 95% confidence, determine the margin of error ( Assume the same mean and sample standard deviation. What is one advantage and one disadvantage of using 50 insulators instead of 25 insulators? d. lbf) if 50 insulators were tested.

Tyler wants to buy a new tub and that cost $312. He has already saved the plan to save $24 per week over the next few weeks whic
laila [671]

Answer:

13 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cost of new tub = $312

Planned saving per week = $24

The number of weeks he'll have to save in other to be able to afford the tub can be obtained using the relation :

Number of weeks = cost of new tub / weekly saving

Number of weeks = $312 / $24

Number of weeks = 13 weeks
