Speed=distance / time  ⇒ distance=time x speed
distance=d
time=t
speed= s

d=s*t

Distance  traveled by Mr Guerrero, when his daugther left the house
Data:
s=40 miles/ hour
t=2 hours
d=40 miles/ hour * 2 hours=  80 miles

Total distance traveled by Mr Guerrero:
d=80 miles + 40 miles/hourt    ⇒d=80+40t      (1)

d=total distance.
s=speed.
t=time spent by Miranda for she overtook her father.

Distance traveled by Miranda.
data:

s=48 miles/ hour
d=total distance.
t=time spent by Miranda for she overtook her father.

d=48 miles/hour * t      ⇒d=48t       (2)

With the equations (1) and (2), we make an system of equations:

d=80+40t
d=48t

We can solve this system of equation by equalization method.

80+40t=48t
80=48t-40t
80=8t
t=80/8=10

d=48t
d=48*10=480

Answer: the thistance will be 480 miles.

Answer:

r = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio (r) is the number that, when multiplied by the previous (n-1) term, gives the nth term of the geometric sequence (). To find the common ratio, we can take any term and divide it by its preceding term (rearrange the formula to get ). If we take 24 and divide it by 16, we get the common ratio of 3/2 (, ).

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The correct option is b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for standard deviation is

\sigma^2=\frac{\sum {(x-\overline{x})^2}}{n}

where, \overline{x} is mean of the data and n is number of observation.

The variance of a stock's returns can be calculated by the above formula.

Variance of stock's returns is the average value of squared deviations from the mean.

Therefore the correct option is b.

P/5 = 10 what is p
Sav [38]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

p/5=10

Your main goal is to isolate p

p/5 = 10, in order to eliminate the 5, multiply 5 on both sides, since it's the inverse of division.

(5)p/5 = 10(5)

p=50
