Becca and Kimberly are running at a constant speed in a marathon. Becca runs at 4.5 miles per hour. Kimberly’s progress is shown

Georgia [21]

Answer:

Part A: Kimberly

Part B:

Becca = 22.5 miles, Kimberly = 25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given that Becca runs at a constant speed of 4.5 miles per hour, use the table to find the constant speed that Kimberly runs, and compare who runs faster.

Let x = time

y = distance

k = speed = y/x

Equation for each person can be written as: y = kx

Therefore:

✔️Equation for Becca if k = 4.5

y = 4.5x

✔️Find k (speed) of Kimberly using (2, 10):

Speed (k) = y/x

k = 10/2

k = 5 miles per hour

Equation for Kimberly would be:

y = 5x

Comparing their speed, Kimberly runs faster because she covers more miles per hour than Becca does.

Part B:

For Becca, substitute x = 5 into Becca's equation, y = 4.5x

Thus:

y = 4.5*5 = 22.5 miles

For Kimberly, substitute x = 5 into Kimberly's equation, y = 5x

Thus:

y = 5*5 = 25 miles

Lean wants to giftwrap a present she got for her little brother. how many square inches of giftwrap will be needed to cover a bo

Natalka [10]

Check the picture below.

so.. notice, the box for the gift is really just a rectangular prism, which is really just 6 rectangles stacked up to each other at the edges.

the front and back are two 5x3 rectangles

the left and right are just two 3x7 rectangles

and the top and bottom are just two 5x7 rectangles

so, just get the area of each, sum them up, and that's the area of the rectangular prism and thus of the box, and that's how many in² she will need.

Margie is practicing for an upcoming tennis tournament. Her first serve is good 20 out of 30 times on average. Margie wants to k

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

0.6804

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Margie is practicing for an upcoming tennis tournament. Her first serve is good 20 out of 30 times on average.

Since each trial is independent and there are two outcomes, X no of good serves is binomial with n=6 and p =2/3

Required probability

= Prob that atleast four of 6 times good serve

= $P(X\geq 4)$

= $P(x=4,5 or 6)\\=1-F(3)\\=0.6804$

Formula used:

P(X=r) = $6Cr (\frac{2}{3}^r )(\frac{1}{3}^{6-r} )$

Let f(x) =[[x]], what is f(-5.2)

ANEK [815]

flooring a value, simply means, dropping it to the closest integer, so for the floor function or ⌊x⌋, that means

⌊ 2.5 ⌋ = 2

⌊ 2.00000001 ⌋ = 2

⌊ 2.999999999999⌋ = 2

⌊ -2.0000000001⌋ = -3

⌊ -2.999999999999⌋ = -3

let's recall that on the negative side of the number line, the farther from 0, the smaller, so -1,000,000 is a tiny number compared to the much larger -1.

⌊ -5.2 ⌋ = -6.
