Starting at home, Emily traveled uphill to the hardware store for 60 minutes at just 6 mph. She then traveled back home along th

e same path downhill at a speed of 12 mph. What is her average speed for the entire trip from home to the hardware store and back?

Answer

The average speed is not just the average of 666 mph and 121212 mph.

Hint #22 / 12

She traveled for a longer time uphill (since she was going slower), so we can estimate that the average speed is closer to 666 mph than 121212 mph.

Hint #33 / 12

To calculate the average speed, we will make use of the following:

avaerage speed: total distance/total time

What was the total distance traveled?

total distance

=distance uphill+distance downhill

=2×distance uphill

distance uphill

=speed uphill×time uphill

=6 mph×60 minutes×  

60 minutes

1 hour

/60 minutes=6 miles

Substituting to find the total distance:

total distance=12

What was the total time spent traveling?

total time=time uphill+time downhill

ANd u keep on going im not going to answer it all so it dont look like copy paste but the answer is:

The average speed is 8 mph, and which is closer to 6mph than 12mph as we expected.

The position vector for a particle moving on a helix is
topjm [15]

Answer:

a) 25.15

b)

   x = 1

   y = t

   z = (4pi)^2 + t *(8pi) = 4pi(4pi + 2t)

c) (x,y) = (1, -2pi)

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

First lets calculate the velocity, that is, the derivative of c(t) with respect to t:

v(t) = (-sin(t), cos(t), 2t)

The velocity at t0=4pi is:

v(4pi) = (0, 1, 8pi)

And the speed will be:

s(4pi) = √(0^2+1^2+ (8pi)^2) = 25.15

b)

The tangent line to c(t) at t0 = 4pi has the parametric form:

(x,y,z) = c(4pi) + t*v(4pi)

Since

 c(4pi) = (1, 0, (4pi)^2)

The tangent curve has the following components:

x = 1

y = t

z = (4pi)^2 + t *(8pi) = 4pi(4pi + 2t)

c)

The intersection with the xy plane will occurr when z = 0

This happens at:

  t1 = -2pi

Therefore, the intersection will occur at:

(x,y) = (1, -2pi)

Question
balandron [24]

Answer:

The approximate percentage of SAT scores that are less than 865 is 16%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 1060, standard deviation of 195.

Empirical Rule to estimate the approximate percentage of SAT scores that are less than 865.

865 = 1060 - 195

So 865 is one standard deviation below the mean.

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so approximately 100 - 68 = 32% are more than 1 standard deviation from the mean. The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that approximately 32/2 = 16% are more than 1 standard deviation below the mean and approximately 16% are more than 1 standard deviation above the mean. So

The approximate percentage of SAT scores that are less than 865 is 16%.
