A company uses this formula to work out the cost, £A, of a taxi ride.

velikii [3]

Answer:

£b = £1.68

A = £44.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A = 5 + 1.9m + b

Where,

A = total cost

m = number of miles travelled

£b = charge for booking online

£5 = fixed charge

A. Harry

A = £29.48

m = 12 miles

£b = ?

A = 5 + 1.9m + b

29.48 = 5 + 1.9(12) + b

29.48 = 5 + 22.8 + b

29.48 = 27.8 + b

29.48 - 27.8 = b

b = 1.68

£b = £1.68

b) If Sue books online and travels 20 miles, what will be

A = 5 + 1.9m + b

= 5 + 1.9(20) + 1.68

= 5 + 38 + 1.68

= 44.68

A = £44.68

Mr. Thomas spent $1,600 of his savings on a television set and 2/5 of the remainder on a refrigerator. He had 1/3 of his origina

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The amount spent on the refrigerator is $ 800 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The amount spent on television = $ 1600

Le The total amount in the account = $ A

so, The amount left in account after spent on television = $ A - $ 1600

The amount spent on refrigerator = $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( A - 1600 )

The amount left in his saving account = $\frac{1}{3}$ × A

Now, According to question

A - ( 1600 + $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( A - 1600 ) ) = $\frac{1}{3}$ × A

Or, A - $\frac{1}{3}$ × A = 1600 + $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( A - 1600 )

Or, $\frac{2}{3}$ × A = 1600 + $\frac{2}{5}$ × A - $\frac{2}{5}$ × 1600

or, $\frac{2}{3}$ × A - $\frac{2}{5}$ × A = 1600 - 640

Or, $\frac{10 - 6 }{15}$ × A = 960

or, $\frac{4}{15}$ × A = 960

∴ A = $\frac{960\times 15}{4}$

I.e A = 3600

So, The amount in the saving account is $3600

∵ , The amount spent on refrigerator = $\frac{2}{5}$ × ( 3600 - 1600 )

Or, The amount spent on refrigerator = $\frac{2}{5}$ × 2000

I.e The amount spent on refrigerator = $ 800

Hence The amount spent on the refrigerator is $ 800 . Answer

Radioactive isotopes are commonly used to estimate artifact ages. Let X be the time in years for a Carbon-14 atom to decay to Ni

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a) 1 / years

b) P ( 5000 < X < 6000) = 0.06222

c) 8267 years

d) T_1/2 = 5730.25 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The decay constant λ = 1 / 8267

- X is an exponential random Variable

Find:

a. What are the units of What are the units of λ?

b. What is the probability the decay time is between 5000 and 6000 years?

c. Compute SD(X).

d. Compute the median decay time. The result is called the half-life of Carbon-14?

Solution:

- The decay constant λ means the rate at which the C-14 atoms decays into N-14 atom. The rate is expressed in units of 1 / year.

- The random variable X follows an exponential distribution which has a probability mass function and cumulative density functions as follows:

P ( X = t ) = λ*e^(-λ*t)

P ( X = t ) = e^(-t/8267) / 8267

P ( X < t ) = 1 - e^(-λ*t) = 1 - e^(-t/8267)

- The probability of the decay time between years 5000 and 6000 years is:

P ( 5000 < X < 6000) = 1 - e^(-6000/8267) - 1 + e^(-5000/8267)

P ( 5000 < X < 6000) = 0.06222

- The standard deviation of the exponential distribution is given by:

SD(X) = 1 / λ = 8267 years

- The median decay time for an exponential distribution is given by:

T_1/2 = Ln(2) / λ = Ln(2)*8267

T_1/2 = 5730.25 years
