Answer:

6.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

7 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 8 green marbles = 18 marbles

P ( green ) = green/total = 8/18 = 4/9

Keep marble

7 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 7 green marbles = 17 marbles

P ( green ) = green/total = 7/17

Keep marble

7 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 6 green marbles = 16 marbles

P ( green ) = green/total = 6/16 = 3/8

P (green,green,green) = 4/9*7/17 * 3/8 = 7/102

To the nearest tenth of a percent

.068627451 = 6.8627451% = 6.9%

Jean runs 8 mi and then rides 11 mi on her bicycle on a biathlon. She rides 9 mph faster than she runs. If the total time for he

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Let Jean's speed while running = x mph

Then Jean's speed while riding will be = x+9 mph

Distance covered by running = 8 miles

Distance covered by riding = 11 miles

Total time taken to complete the race = 1.5 hours

As, $time=\frac{distance}{speed}$

So, time for running= $\frac{8}{x}$

And time for riding= $\frac{11}{x+9}$

Equation becomes:

$\frac{8}{x}+\frac{11}{x+9}=1.5$

Now, multiply every term by 2x(x+9) to clear denominators:

$16(x+9)+22x=3x(x+9)$

Simplifying it we get

$3x^{2}-11x-144=0$

Solve the quadratic equation using formula

$x= \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac }}{2a}$

putting a=3 , b= -11, c= -144

we get (x - 9)(3x + 16) = 0

where x=9 and x= $\frac{-16}{3}$

Neglect the negative answer as speed cannot be negative, so x = 9 mph

Hence, Jean's running speed is 9 mph and riding speed is x+9 = 9+9 = 18 mph

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Her regular weekly pay is $62 and her annual salary is $3100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that her hourly wage=$15.50 / hour

As she works 40 hours per week, so her weekly pay = 15.50 x 40 = $62/ week.

If she works 50 weeks each year, so her yearly pay = 62x50=$3100 /year.

Hence, her regular weekly pay is $62 and her annual salary is $3100.
