Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of parking lot = 20 feets

Speed of tortoise which starts at the edge = 6 feets per minute

Speed of tortoise which starts 4 feets from the edge = 2 feets per minute

Equation to represent when they will be in the same spot.

Distance = speed * time

Distance of Tortoise at edge = 6ft/min * t = 6t - - (1)

Distance of the other tortoise = (4 + 2t) - - - (2)

Equating both (1) and (2)

6t = 4 + 2t

6t - 2t = 4

4t = 4

t = 4/4

t = 1

Hence, they'll be at the same spot after 1 minute.

jarptica [38.1K]

Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The first thing we know is that all the answers equal 99, so we cannot cross any answer off, however, what we want to know is what answer (after distribution) looks like 36 + 63...

A.) 11(3 + 6) > 33 + 66

Does 33+66 look like 36+63?

NO

B.) 9(4 + 7) > 36 + 63

Does 36+63 look like 36+63?

YES

C.) 11(4 + 5) > 44 + 55

Does 44+55 look like 36+63?

NO

D.) 3(15 + 18) > 45 + 54

Does 45+54 look like 36+63?

NO

So...

The answer is: B.) 9(4 + 7)

Evaluate the piecewise function for the given values.
adoni [48]

Answer:

f(-3) = -2

f(-2.6) = -2

f(0.6) = 2.4

f(4.5) = 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

(Whole question:

Evaluate the piecewise function for the given values.

Find f(-3), f(-2,6), f(0.6), and f(4.5) for f(x)={ -2 If x ≤ 0 4x. If 0 <x <1. x + 4. If x ≥ 1)

As the piecewise function shows, the function f(x) has the value of -2 for values of x lesser or equal than 0, has the value of 4x if the value of x is between 0 and 1, and has the value of x+4 for values of x greater or equal than 1.

So, for f(-3), the value of x is lesser than 0, so we have that f(-3) = -2

For f(-2.6), the value of x is lesser than 0, so we have that f(-3) = -2

For f(0.6), the value of x is between 0 and 1, so we have that f(0.6) = 4*0.6 = 2.4

For f(4.5), the value of x is greater than 1, so we have that f(4.5) = 4.5 + 4 = 8.5

An office that dispenses automotive license plates has divided its customers into categories to level the office workload. Custo
grigory [225]

Answer:

UNIF(2.66,3.33) minutes for all customer types.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem above, it was stated that the office arranged its customers into different sections to ensure optimum performance and minimize workload. Furthermore, there was a service time of UNIF(8,10) minutes for everyone. Since there are only three different types of customers, the service time can be estimated as UNIF(8/3,10/3) minutes = UNIF(2.66,3.33) minutes.
