If each runner runs 1/3 mile, how many runners must be on a team?

Mathematics

ipn [44]3 years ago
5 0
That depends on the total distance of the race, which you
have not bothered to mention.

If the team has exactly enough runners to run the entire race,
one at a time, then the number of runners needed is ...
 
             (3) times (the total distance of the race, in miles) .

What is the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with a1 = 6 and r = 1/3?
tresset_1 [31]
The sum of the terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio lesser than 1 is calculated through the equation,

                                  Sn = (a1) x (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)
Substituting the known values,
                                 S5 = (6) x (1 - (1/3)^5) / (1 - 1/3) = 242/27
Thus, the sum of the first five terms is approximately equal to 8.96.

In the 2012 presidential election, exit polls from the critical state of Ohio provided the following results:
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

50% probability that a randomly selected respondent voted for Obama.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

60% probability that an Ohio resident does not have a college degree.

If an Ohio resident does not have a college degree, a 52% probability that he voted for Obama.

40% probability that an Ohio resident has a college degree.

If an Ohio resident has a college degree, a 47% probability that he voted for Obama.

What is the probability that a randomly selected respondent voted for Obama?

This is the sum of 52% of 60%(non college degree) and 47% of 40%(college degree).

So

P = 0.52*0.6 + 0.47*0.4 = 0.5

50% probability that a randomly selected respondent voted for Obama.

The distance between Lincoln, NE, and Boulder, CO, is about 500 miles. The distance between Boulder, CO, and a third city is 200
GenaCL600 [577]
We know that

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side (Triangle Inequality Theorem)

Let 

A------> Lincoln, NE

B------> Boulder, CO

C------> third city


we know that

in the triangle ABC

AB=500 miles

BC=200 miles

AC=x


Applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem

1) 500+200 > x------> 700 > x------> x < 700 miles

2) 200+x > 500----> x > 500-200------> x > 300 miles


the solution for x is 

300 < x < 700

the interval is------> (300,700)

the possible distances, d, in miles, between Lincoln, NE, and the third city, are in the range between 300 and 700 miles
