When truckers are on long-haul drives, their driving logs must reflect their average speed. Average speed is the total distance

bekas [8.4K]

a) $v=\frac{d_{tot}}{t_{tot}}=\frac{(3 h)(60 mph)+20 mi}{3 h +t_2}$

The average speed is equal to the ratio between the total distance ( $d_{tot}$ and the total time taken ( $t_{tot}$ ):

$v=\frac{d_{tot}}{t_{tot}}$

the distance travelled by the trucker in the first 3 hour can be written as the time multiplied by the velocity:

$d_1 = (3 h)(60 mph)=180 mi$

So the total distance is

$d_{tot}=d_1 +d_2 = 180 mi+20 mi=200 mi$

The total time is equal to the first 3 hours + the time taken to cover the following 20 miles in the city:

$t_{tot}=3 h +t_2$

So, the equation can be rewritten as:

$v=\frac{d_{tot}}{t_{tot}}=\frac{(3 h)(60 mph)+20 mi}{3 h +t_2}$

b) 0.50 h (half a hour)

Since we know the value of the average speed, $v=57.14 mph$ , we can substitute it into the previous equation to find the value of $t_2$ , the time the trucker drove in the city:

$v=\frac{200 mi}{3h +t_2}\\3h+t_2 = \frac{200 mi}{v}\\t_2 = \frac{200 mi}{v}-3h=\frac{200 mi}{57.14 mph}-3 h=0.50 h$

You draw a card at random from a deck that contains 333 black cards and 777 red cards. What is \text{P(draw a black card})P(draw

enot [183]

Answer:

The probability of picking a black card at random, from a deck with 3 black cards and 7 red ones is 0.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will assume that we have 3 black cards and 7 black cards, for a total of 10 cards. Since we are taking one card at random, we can assume that each card is equally likely to be drawn. We have the following event A: The drawn card is a black. We will find the probability of A as counting the number of outcomes that make A to occur and divide it by the total number of possibilities. We are drawing one card, so we have 10 possibilities to be picked. Out of those 10, only 3 cards are black, hence we have 3 possibilites of picking a black card.

Then,

P(A) = 3/10 = 0.3.
