Answer:

Correct answer:  Vsub = 5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

t₁ = 2 h

Va = 25 mph

t₂ = 9 h

d = 280 mile

distance traveled by aircraft carrier  for time t₂ = 9 h

d₃ = Va · t₂ = 25 · 9 = 225 miles

the total distance traveled by the submarine

d₁ + d₂ = 280 - 225 = 55 miles

d₁ + d₂ = Vsub · t₁ + Vsub · t₂ = Vsub · ( t₁ + t₂ ) = 55

Vsub · ( t₁ + t₂ ) = 55  ⇒  Vsub = 55 / 2 + 9 = 55 / 11 = 5 mph

Vsub = 5 mph

God is with you!!!

The probability that it will snow on the last day of January is 85%. If the probability remains the same of the first eight day
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Here, we have:

P(5 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C5 x (0.85)^5 x (1 - 0.85)^3 = 0.084

P(6 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C6 x (0.85)^6 x (1 - 0.85)^2 = 0.238

P(7 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C7 x (0.85)^7  x (1 - 0.85)^1  = 0.385

P(8 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C8 x (0.85)^8 x (1 - 0.85)^0 = 0.272

Add up those above, then the probability that it will snow AT LEAST five of those days in February:

P = 0.084+ 0.238 + 0. 385 + 0.272 = 0.979

Hope this helps!

(1) Ax + By = C (2) Dx + Ey = F Jim is trying to solve the system of equations. He begins by multiplying equation (1) by D and e
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

No, Angela is not correct.

As the method Jim was performing will also lead to the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given first equation as:

                  Ax + By = C

Second equation is:

                   Dx + Ey = F

Jim solved the equation as:

He begins by multiplying equation (1) by D and equation (2) by A.

and so by subtracting both the equations he will obtain a value of y.

and then put the y-value in any of the given two equations to obtain the value of x.

Angela Method:

you should have multiplied equation (1) by E and equation (2) by B.

and when she will subtract both the equations she will get the value of x first and then when she will put the value of x in any of the given equation she will obtain the value of y.

But both will get a value for x and y.

Hence, the method Jim was performing was also correct.
