Answer: t2 = 0.86 t1

0.286 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the speed of the two skaters to be

S1 = 12 m/s

S2 = 14 m/s

Since it is a race, the distance covered will be the same. But of different time.

First Skater

Speed = distance/time

Let's assume that the distance covered when the second overtakes the first is d

12 = d/t1

d = 12t1

Since the time of both skaters are not given, let us assume that distance where the second skater overtakes the first is 4 metres. Therefore

t1 = 4/12 = 0.3333 second

Second skater

Speed = distance/ time

14 = 12t1/t2

t2 = 12t1/14

t2 = 0.86 t1

t2 = 0.86(0.333)

0.286 seconds

A factory produces 5-packs of pencils. To be within the weight specifications, a pack of 5 pencils should weigh between 60 grams
ollegr [7]
Given:
1 pack = 5 pencils and cardboard.
1 pack must be between 60 grams and 95 grams

60g < x < 95g ; where x represents 1 pack.

Card board: 15 grams.

95g - 15g = 80g maximum total weight of 5 pencils
80g / 5 = 16g maximum weight of a single pencil

60g - 15g = 45g minimum total weight of 5 pencils
45g / 5 =9g minimum weight of a single pencil

9 < x < 16 ; where x represents a single pencil in the pack.

Help pls!! Whoever answers gets marked brainliest
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

10. x= 10 y=sqrt 200

11. x=y=450

12. x=19 y=sqrt 1083

13. x=sqrt 48 y=sqrt 12

Step-by-step explanation:

10.

x and 10 are the same

10^2+10^2=200

sqrt 200 is not a whole number so y is just sqrt 200

11.

30^2=2x^2 because x and y are the same

x^2=450

sqrt 450 is not a whole number so x and y are just sqrt 450

12.

x= 38 divided by 2=19

38^2=19^2+y^2

1444=361+y^2

y^2=1083

sqrt 1083 is not a whole number so y is just sqrt 1083

13.

x^2=(x/2)^2+36=x^2/4+36

x^2=48

sqrt 48 is not a whole number so x is just sqrt 48

y is half of x so it is sqrt 12

Each time a component is tested, the trial is a success (S) or failure (F). Suppose the component is tested repeatedly until a s
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Let S represent the sample space , then the possible trials are: S= {SSS, FSSS, FFSSS, FFFSSS, FFFFSSS, …}

Y = the number of trials to be tested.

The possible values of Y are P ={x ∈N , x≥3}

Therefore the five smallest possible values of Y are :

1. Y{SSS} ........ 3 outcomes

2. Y{FSSS} ...... 4 outcomes

3. Y{FFSSS}....... 5 outcomes

4. Y{FFFSSS} ...... 6 outcomes

5. Y{FFFFSSS} ..... 7 outcomes
