Answer:

the number of seconds that you and your friend would be have the similar distance from the starting line is 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of seconds that you and your friend would be have the similar distance from the starting line is shown below:

As we know that

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

SO,

Time = Distance ÷ speed

= 10 meters ÷ difference in speed

= 10 meters ÷ (6 meters per second - 5.5 meters per second)

= 10 meters ÷ 0.5 meters per second

= 20 seconds

hence, the number of seconds that you and your friend would be have the similar distance from the starting line is 20 seconds

You travel between these two mile markers and then find your average speed in miles per hour. Which equation does NOT represent
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The time in first figure is 3:00 pm and the time in second figure is 4:30 pm.

So total time taken by car is

4:30-3:00=1:30

It means total time taken by car is 1.5 hour.

The distance in first figure is 50 miles and the speed in second figure is 155 miles.

So total distance travelled by car is

155-50=105

It means total distance travelled by car is 105 miles.

The formula of speed is

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Speed=\frac{105\text { miles }}{1.5\text{ hours}}

Therefore option B represents the solution. Option B is incorrect.

Multiply both sides by 1.5 hours.

1.5\text{ hours}\times Speed=105\text { miles }

Therefore option D represents the solution. Option D is incorrect.

Divide both sides by speed.

1.5\text{ hours}=\frac{105\text { miles }}{Speed}

Therefore option A represents the solution. Option A is incorrect.

Option C can not represent the solution, therefore option C is correct.

The Hiking Club plans to go camping in a State park where the probability of rain on any given day is 2/3. What is the probabili
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

19.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to find the probability for a sequence of events then we need to multiply the probability of each event happening separately from each other. Since the probability of it raining on a single day is 2/3 we need to multiply this value with itself 4 times (one for each day).

2/3 * 2/3 * 2/3 * 2/3 = 16/81 or 0.1975 or 19.75%

Therefore the probability would be 16/81 or 0.1975 or 19.75%
