Answer:

6.14 minutes or 6 minutes & 8.4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial elevation: 453 ft

Final elevation: 146 ft

Difference in elevation: 453 ft - 146 ft = 307 ft

speed = 50 ft/min

speed = distance/time

time * speed = distance

time = distance/speed

time = (307 ft)/(50 ft/min)

time = 6.14 minutes = 6 minutes + 0.14 * 60 seconds

time = 6.14 minutes = 6 minutes + 8.4 seconds

4. The red graph (1) is the graph of f(x) = log(x). Describe the transformation of the blue function (2) and write the equation

sergey [27]

Answer:

Function $f(x)$ is shifted 1 unit left and 1 unit up.

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x+1)+1$

Transformed function $f(x+1)+1=\log(x+1)+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Red graph (Parent function):

$f(x)=\log(x)$

Blue graph (Transformed function)

From the graph we can see that the red graph is shifted 1 units left and 1 units up.

Translation Rules:

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x+c)$

If $c>0$ the function shifts $c$ units to the left.

If $c$ the function shifts $c$ units to the right.

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+c$

If $c>0$ the function shifts $c$ units to the up.

If $c$ the function shifts $c$ units to the down.

Applying the rules to $f(x)$

The transformation statement is thus given by:

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x+1)+1$

As function $f(x)$ is shifted 1 unit left and 1 unit up.

Transformed function is given by:

$f(x+1)+1=\log(x+1)+1$

Joe can cut and split a cord of firewood in 3 fewer hours than Dwight can. When they work together, it takes them 2 hours. How

aalyn [17]

Answer:

Dwight will take 6 hours to finish the job alone and Joe will take 3 hours to finish the job alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the time taken by Dwight to split a cord of firewood = K hrs

So, the per hour rate of Dwight = $(\frac{1}{K})$

As, Joe uses 3 LESS hours then Dwight.

So, the time taken by Joe to split a cord of firewood = (K- 3) hrs

So, the per hour rate of Joe = $(\frac{1}{K-3})$

Now, when both of them wok together, it takes them 2 hours.

So, the per hour rate of BOTH of them = $(\frac{1}{2})$

⇒ Per hour rate of ( Dwight + Joe) = $(\frac{1}{2} )$

$\implies (\frac{1}{K}) + (\frac{1}{K-3}) = (\frac{1}{2})$

Now, solving for the value of K , we get:

$(\frac{1}{K}) + (\frac{1}{K-3}) = (\frac{1}{2})\\\implies \frac{(K-3) + K}{K (K-3)} = (\frac{1}{2})\\\implies 2(2K -3) = K^2 - 3K\\\implies k^2 - 3K -4K +6 = 0\\\implies K^2 - 7K + 6= 0\\\implies K^2 - 6K - K + 6= 0\\\implies K(K-6) -1(K - 6)= 0\\\implies (K-6)(K-1) = 0$

Implies either K = 6 Or K = 1

But if K = 1, (K-3) = 1- 3 = -2 hours would be A CONTRADICTION.

⇒ K = 6 hours

Hence, Dwight will take 6 hours to finish the job alone and Joe will take (k-3) = (6-3) = 3 hours to finish the job alone.

2. What is the experimental probability of rolling a 4

boyakko [2]

Answer:

1. 40%

2. The theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are informed that a number cube is rolled 20 times and the number 4 is rolled 8 times. The experimental probability of rolling a 4 is;

(the number of times a 4 was rolled)/(total number of rolls)

8/20 = 0.4

0.4*100 = 40%

The experimental probability of obtaining at least one tails, one or more tails, is represented in mathematical notation as;

P(HT or TH or TT)

The above events are mutually exclusive, thus;

P(HT or TH or TT) = P(HT) + P(TH) + P( TT)

= (22+34+16)/(28+22+34+16)

= 0.72 = 72%

On the other hand, the theoretical probability of obtaining at least one tails,

P(HT or TH or TT) = 3/4

= 75%

This is because there is at least one tail in 3 out of 4 possible outcomes.

Therefore, it is true to say that the theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.

What are possible coordinates of point F if triangle DEF is<br> congruent to triangle ABC?

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

(-1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B is 5 units below point A, and point E is 5 units above point D: AB = ED. This means that BC will be equal to EF. B and C are 7 units apart, so 7 units left from E is (-1, 4).

Hope this helps!
