Answer:

The time when walking is 5/v hours

The walking speed is 4 26/31 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

time = distance/speed

So the time taken when walking will be;

5/v

The time taken when cycling will be:

15/2v

The term 2h 35 minutes is same as 2 35/60

= 2 7/12

If we add the whole times together, we get 2 7/12

Thus;

5/v + 15/2v = 2 7/12

5/v + 15/2v = 31/12

(10 + 15)/2v = 31/12

25/2v = 31/12

12 * 25 = 2v * 31

31v = 6 * 25

v = 150/31

= 4 26/31

In a missile-testing program, one random variable of interest is the distance between the point at which the missile lands and t

Arisa [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data

we observed that the missile testing program

Y1 and Y2 are variable, they are also independent

We are aware that

$(Y_1)^2 and (Y_2)^2$ have $x^2$ distribution with 1 degree of freedom

and $V=(Y_1^2)+(Y_2)^2$ has x^2 with 2 degree of freedom

$F_v(v)=\frac{e^{-\frac{v}{2}}}2$

Since we have to find the density formula

$U=\sqrt{V}$

We use method of transformation

$h(V)=\sqrt{U}\\\\=U$

There inverse function is $h^-^1(U)=U^2$

We derivate the fuction above with respect to u

$\frac{d}{du} (h^-^1(u))=\frac{d}{du} (u^2)\\\\=2u^2^-^1\\\\=2u$

Therefore,

$F_v(u)=F_v(h-^1)(u)\frac{dh^-^1}{du} \\\\=\frac{e^-\frac{u^-^}{2} }{2} (2u)\\\\=e^-{\frac{u^2}{2} }U$

The area of the base of a rectangular juice box is 4 1/2 sq.in. If the volume of the box is 18 cubic inches, how tall is the box

Ksju [112]

Volume = Area x Height. We are given Volume and Area, so plug in and solve for Height (Height = Volume/Area)

18in^3 = 4.5 in^2 x Height (divide both sides by 4.5) -> 4in = Height
