The amount of time it takes for a student to complete a statistics quiz seems to have a uniform distribution with a minimum time

of 18 minutes and the maximum of 50 minutes. The professor wants to reward(with bonus marks) students who are in the lowest quarter of completion times. What completion time should be used for the cutoff for awarding bonus marks?

Q1 = 18 + 1/4(50 - 18) = 18 + 1/4(32) = 18 + 8 = 26

Therefore, the cutoff should be 26.

Ben and Josh went to the roof of their 40-foot tall high school to throw their math books off the edge.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

  • Josh's book lands first
  • Ben's lands about 0.648 seconds later

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given equation for v=60 and s=40, the height of Ben's book is ...

  h(t) = -16t² +60t +40

We want to find t when h(t) = 0, so we're looking for the solution to ....

  0 = -16t² +60t +40

Using the quadratic formula, we find the positive value of t to be ...

  t = (-60 -√(60² -4(-16)(40)))/(2(-16)) = (15 +√385)/8 ≈ 4.3277

__

Similarly, the height of Josh's book is ...

  0 = -16t² +48t +40

  t = (-48 -√(48² -4(-16)(40)))/(2(-16)) = (12 +√304)/8 ≈ 3.6794

__

The time before Josh's book lands is shorter by ...

  4.3277 -3.6794 ≈ 0.6482 . . . . . seconds

Josh's book reaches the ground first, by about 0.648 seconds.

Question 2 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
likoan [24]

Answer:

Solution: means we replace 'x' with 'x+1' and we get g (x). Let us put x = 0 and then y = 0 to find two points on coordinate axis to easily plot the graph of g (x). Now, let us put y = 0 and find out x. So, second point is . Now, let us plot A and B then extend the line joining AB.

Mai and Tyler work on the equation 2/5 b + 1 = -11 together. Mai’s solution is b= -25 and Tyler’s is b = -28 Here is their work.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

<em>I disagree with both solutions. The value of b that will make the expression correct is -30</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation solved my Mai and Tyler expressed as:

2/5 b + 1 = -11

We are to check the veracity of the solutions;

2/5 b + 1 = -11

Subtract 1 from both sides of the expression

2/5 b + 1 -1 = -11-1

2/5 b = -12

Cross multiply

2b = -12 * 5

2b = -60

Divide both sides by 2

2b/2 = -60/2

b = -30

<em>Since the solution b = -25 and -28 does not tally with the gotten solution, I disagree with the both solutions</em>
