Correct question:
An elevator in a mine shaft is stopped at 25 feet below ground level. And then travels 28 feet downward. What equation can be written to find the final position in feet of the elevator in relations to ground level?
Answer:
-53 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial stop point = 25 feets below ground level
Further distance traveled = 28 feets below ground level
Final position in feet = Initial stop point + further distance traveled
Note : distances or point traveled below ground level or downward is represented as negative.
Final position in feets = (-25)feets + (-28)feets
Final position in feets = - 53 feets

Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides of similar figures are proportional, so ...
AB/FE = BC/EC
x/6 = 10/5
x = 6·(10/5) . . . multiply by 6
x = 12
Answer:
406 ml
Step-by-step explanation:
P1V1 = P2V2
(1) (.315) = (.775)(V2)
V2 = .406
Answer:
a) 0.778
b) 0.9222
c) 0.6826
d) 0.3174
e) 2 drivers
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Sample size, n = 5
P = 40% = 0.4
a) Probability that none of the drivers shows evidence of intoxication.
b) Probability that at least one of the drivers shows evidence of intoxication would be:
P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X < 1)
c) The probability that at most two of the drivers show evidence of intoxication.
P(x≤2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)
d) Probability that more than two of the drivers show evidence of intoxication.
P(x>2) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2)
![= 1 - [^5C_0 (0.4)^0 (0.6)^5 + ^5C_1 (0.4)^1 (0.6)^4 + ^5C_2 * (0.4)^2 (0.6)^3]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20%3D%201%20-%20%5B%5E5C_0%20%20%280.4%29%5E0%20%20%280.6%29%5E5%20%2B%20%5E5C_1%20%20%280.4%29%5E1%20%20%280.6%29%5E4%20%2B%20%5E5C_2%20%2A%20%280.4%29%5E2%20%20%280.6%29%5E3%5D%20)
e) Expected number of intoxicated drivers.
To find this, use:
Sample size multiplied by sample proportion
n * p
= 5 * 0.40
= 2
Expected number of intoxicated drivers would be 2
Answer:
7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Since y varies directly with x, the ratio of y to x is proportional.
... y / 7 = (1/4)/(5)
... y / 7 = 1 / 20 . . . . simplify
... y = 7/20 . . . . . multiply by 7
