We have that El Paso is 320 miles from Tucson and 720 miles from San Diego.
You're travelling from Tucson to San Diego.
First we have to find the distance from Tucson to San Diego. We can do this by finding the difference between the distance of Tucson from San Diego and El Paso from San Diego.
That is:
720−320
400 miles
You leave by 6:00 am.
You drive for 75 miles per hour in 4 hours for the first part of the journey.
You then drive for 50 miles per hour for the rest of the journey.
The first step is to find the distance that the rest of the journey took. We can do that by first finding the distance covered in the first part of the journey and subtracting that from the total distance (400 miles).
To find the distance for the first part of the journey, we apply the formula for speed (rate of change of distance with time):
s = d/t
⇒d = s⋅t
where d= distance; t = time
Therefore:
d=75⋅4
d=300 miles
The first part of the journey covered 300 miles. This means that the rest of the journey covered:
400 - 300 = 100 miles
Now, to find the time the rest of the journey took, we have to apply the same formula for speed:
s=d/t
t=d/s
Therefore:
t=100/50
t=2 hrs
To find the total time it took to complete the journey, we have to add the times for the first part and the rest of the journey.
That is:
T=4+2
T=6 hours
Since you left home by 6:00 am, the time you will get to San Diego is 6 hours after that, i.e. 12 noon (Tucson time)
That is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A quadratic equation,
2x(x + 1.5) = -1
We need to solve the quadratic equation. Firstly we need to simplify the above equation to form it as 
.
So,
Here, a = 2, b = 3 and c = 1
The roots of the given equation can be given by :
Putting all the values we get :
So, the roots of the given equation is -1/2 and -1.
Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
A reporter collects a random sample of 50 runners from all the runners who finished the Cherry Blossom Ten Mile Run in 2009 and constructs a 99% confidence interval for the true mean finish time to be (86.05, 99.38) minutes.
Assuming the reporter performed the calculations correctly, which of the following statements are appropriate interpretations of this confidence interval?
We can expect that 99% of confidence intervals created using the same method the reporter used will contain the true mean run time for runners of this race.
