For problems such as this, it can be handy to remember that
.. 1/(1/a +1/b) = ab/(a +b)
The time required to do a job is the inverse of the rate at which the job is done. Rates are added when people work together (in math problems, not in real life).
(2:44)*(3:14)/(2:44 +3:14) = 1:28:52.3
___
2:44 = 41/15 hours = 82/30 hours
3:14 = 97/30 hours
Using the formula above, we have a "working together" time of
.. (82/30)*(97/30)/(82/30 +97/30) = 82*97/(30*179) = 3977/2685 . . . hours
.. = 1 hour 28 156/179 minutes
.. = 1 hour 28 minutes 52 52/179 seconds

Answer:
It represents the 270 miles that Roy and Travis must travel in 4 hours in order to meet somewhere along the highway.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given, the point of interception (4, 270) represent the number of distance, 270 miles, that both Roy and Travis must travel in 4 hours in order to meet along the highway where Roy will give Travis the key to a treasure chest to Roy.
Answer:
C.) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this a couple ways but I solved it by looking at the graph. g(x) is 4 units above f(x). Adding four to f(x) would shift it up 4 units. Hope that helped.
Answer:
Probabilty of not poor= 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
total of 11332 bonds.
7311 are good risk.
1182 are medium risk.
Poor risk
= total risk-(good risk+ medium risk)
= 11332-(7311+1182)
= 11332-8493
= 2839.
Poor risk = 2839
Probabilty that the ball choosen at random is not poor= 1 - probability that the ball is poor
Probability of poor = 2839/11332
Probabilty of poor= 0.2505
Probabilty that the ball choosen at random is not poor= 1- 0.2505
= 0.7495
To two decimal place= 0.75
