The answer would be 71.45
Answer:
14 to 25
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 14 women and 24 people altogether
Let's define variables:
s = original speed
s + 12 = faster speed
The time for the half of the route is:
60 / s
The time for the second half of the route is:
60 / (s + 12)
The equation for the time of the trip is:
60 / s + 60 / (s + 12) + 1/6 = 120 / s
Where,
1/6: held up for 10 minutes (in hours).
Rewriting the equation we have:
6s (60) + s (s + 12) = 60 * 6 (s + 12)
360s + s ^ 2 + 12s = 360s + 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s = 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s - 4320 = 0
We factor the equation:
(s + 72) (s-60) = 0
We take the positive root so that the problem makes physical sense.
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
The original speed of the train before it was held up is:
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Chalice with purified water = 4
With spoiled milk = 5
With flat soda = 6
Probability of Jones drinking from a chalice with purified water after Donovan had drank from 3 = 1/3
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes = (4 + 5 + 6) = 15
After Donovan drinks 3 :
Total possible outcomes = (15 - 3) = 12
If the probability of Jones choosing a chalice with purified water is 1/3 then :
(Required outcome / Total possible outcomes) =1 /3
(Required outcome / 12) = 1 / 3
Required outcome * 3 = 12
Required outcome = 12 / 3
Required outcome = 4
Therefore, since initial number of chalice with purified water is 4,
4 - 4 = 0
Then Donovan did not drink from a chalice containing purified water.
