A snail moves 1/40 of a mile in 3/4 of an hour. If the snail continues at this pace, how far, in miles, does it move in one hour?

In \frac{3}{4} hour snail moves \frac{1}{40}miles

\frac{3}{4} hour = \frac{1}{40} miles

Let us multiply by 4 on both sides, so that we can get the distance to be traveled in 1 hour.

So, \frac{3*4}{4}  hour=\frac{1*4}{40} miles

\frac{3*1}{1}  hour=\frac{4}{40} miles

Now to get distance in 1 hour, Let us divide by 3 on both sides

\frac{3}{3}  hour=\frac{1}{10*3} miles

\frac{1}{1}  hour=\frac{1}{30} miles

In 1 hour, the snail travels \frac{1}{30}miles

1/40 ÷ 3/4 = 1/40 ÷ 4/3 = 4/120 = 1/30

Write an equation parallel to the line determined by the points (15, -6) and (-3, 13), through: (4, 2)
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  -  \frac{19}{18} x +  \frac{76}{2}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

That's

Slope of the through points

(15, -6) and (-3, 13) is

<h3>m =  \frac{13 -  - 6}{ - 3 - 15}  =  -  \frac{19}{18}</h3>

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

So slope of parallel line = - 19/18

Equation of the line using point (4,2) and slope -19/18 is

<h3>y - 2 =  -  \frac{19}{18} (x - 4) \\ y - 2 =  -  \frac{19}{18}  x +  \frac{38}{9}  \\ y =  -  \frac{19}{18} x +  \frac{38}{9}  + 2</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y =  -  \frac{19}{18} x +  \frac{76}{2}</h3>

Hope this helps you

This problem has been solved!See the answerA municipal bond service has three rating categories (A, B, and C). Suppose that in t
mariarad [96]

Answer:

a. \frac{35}{51}

b. \frac{51}{100}

c. \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose cities represented by C', suburbs represented by S and rural represented by R,

Let x be the total number of bonds issued throughout the US,

According to the question,

n(A) = 70% of x = 0.7x,

n(B) = 10% of x = 0.1x,

n(C) = 20% of x = 0.2x,

n(A∩C') = 50% of n(A) = 0.5 × 0.7x = 0.35x,

n(A∩S) = 20% of n(A) = 0.2 × 0.7x = 0.14x,

n(A∩R) = 30% of n(A) = 0.3 × 0.7x = 0.21x,

n(B∩C') = 40% of n(B) = 0.4 × 0.1x = 0.04x,

n(B∩S) = 30% of n(B) = 0.3 × 0.1x = 0.03x,

n(B∩R) = 30% of n(B) = 0.3 × 0.1x = 0.03x,

n(C∩C') = 60% of n(C) = 0.6 × 0.2x = 0.12x,

n(C∩S) = 15% of n(C) = 0.15 × 0.2x = 0.03x,

n(C∩R) = 25% of n(C) = 0.25 × 0.2x = 0.05x,

n(C') = n(A∩C')  + n(B∩C')  + n(C∩C')  = 0.35x + 0.04x + 0.12x = 0.51x

n(S) = n(A∩S) + n(B∩S) + n(C∩S) = 0.14x + 0.03x + 0.03x = 0.20x

a. The probability that it will receive an A rating, if a new municipal bond is to be issued by a city,

P(\frac{A}{C'})=\frac{P(A\cap C')}{P(C')}=\frac{0.35x/x}{0.51x/x}=\frac{0.35}{0.51}=\frac{35}{51}

b. The proportion of municipal bonds are issued by cities = \frac{n(C')}{x}

=\frac{0.51x}{x}

=\frac{51}{100}

c. The proportion of municipal bonds are issued by suburbs = \frac{n(S)}{x}

=\frac{0.20x}{x}

=\frac{20}{100}

=\frac{1}{5}
