Answer:

sedan = 26 miles/gallon

truck = 17 miles/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

try to write the text in mathematical format as a system of equations

t=truck s=sedan

\left \{ {{3t+5s=181} \atop {7t+6s=275}} \right.

first equation can be written as

t= (181-5s)/3

we can use it in the second equation and rewrite it as

7[(181-5s)/3]+6s = 275

7(181/3 -5/3s) + 6s = 275

1267/3 - 35/3s + 6s = 275

-35/3s + 18/3s = 275-1267/3

-35/3s + 18/3s = 825/3 - 1267/3

-35s + 18s = 825 -1267

-17s = -442     s = 442/17 = 26 sedan has an average of 26 miles/gallon

we use this value of s in the first equation

3t + 5*26=181      3t=181-130   t= 51/3 = 17 truck has an average of 17 miles/gallon

Let x be the amount of time (in hours) the wait is to get a table at a restaurant. Suppose the cdf is represented by f(x)=⎧⎩⎨⎪⎪⎪
sattari [20]

Option a is correct. The calculated answer is 0.150

<h3>How to get the value using the cdf</h3>

In order to get  P(0.5 ≤ X ≤ 1.5).

This can be rewritten as

p = 0.5

and P = 1.5

We have the equation as

\frac{1}{16} x^{2}

This would be written as

1.5²/16 - 0.5²/16

= 0.1406 - 0.015625

= 0.124975

This is approximately 0.1250

Complete the Table
lianna [129]

Answer:

a= 6

b = 7

c = 8

d = 7

e = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the bike is 6 feet above the ground to start with, so when it starts rolling, the green dot is exactly 6 feet from the ground, which gives a=6

when the distance covered by the bike is \frac{\pi}{2}, (see first red dot in the attached image), the position of the green dot is exactly 1 foot added to 6 ft= 7 feet

so b = 7

when the distance covered is \pi, now the green dot would be at the top of the wheel (second red dot in the attached image) which involves adding 2 feet to the original 6 feet. That is: c = 8

when the distance covered is \frac{3\pi}{2}, the green dot is at the position of the third red dot in the attached image., that it exactly one foot added to 6 feet = 7 ft which gives the value of d = 7

and finally, when the distance covered is 2\pi. the green dot has completed a full circle and is now again in its lower position (nothing - zero) added to 6 feet =  6ft, giving e = 6.

3241004551 [841]
There are 10 seniors in the class, from which 4 should be chosen by the teacher. The order of the chosen students does not matter. This means that we speak of combinations. THe equation for calculating the number of possible combinations is:
C=N!/R!(N-R), where N is the total number of objects and R is the number of objects we select from the N 
In our case, N=10, R=4.
C= 10!/4!*6!=10*9*8*7*6!/6!*4*3*2*1=<span>10*9*8*7/24=5040/24=210
There are 210 different ways for the teacher to choose 4 seniors in no particular order.</span>
