Irina rode her bike to work at an average speed of 16 miles per hour. It started to rain, so she got a ride home along the same
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

0.7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Irina was able to make the same distance from work to home in 0.4 of an hour at 27 miles per hour, we can use this rate and time to find the distance she travels to and from work using the general formula:

d = rt, where d=distance, r = rate and t = time

d = 27(0.4) = 10.8 miles

Since the distance from Irina's home to work is 10.8 miles, we can again use the formula 'd = rt' to find the time it takes her to bike to work at a rate of 16 miles per hour and solving for time, 't':

10.8 = (16)t

t = 0.7 hours

What 2 numbers multiply to -147 but add to -14?
Bezzdna [24]
Okay, so let's go over multiplying negative numbers.  A positive times a positive is a positive, right?  But a negative times a negative is also a positive.  Only a negative times a positive (or a positive times a negative) gives you a negative number.  So, we know that one of our 2 numbers in this question must be negative; the other must be positive.

Let's now take a look at the factors of -147, starting with the positives.  Obviously, -147 and 1 are factors: -147 * 1 = -147.  What other factors of -147 are there?

What about 7?  Try it: -147 / 7 = -21.  So here are two factors: -21, and 7.  They multiply to -147.  Do they add up to -14?  Let's see: -21+7 = 7+(-21) = 7-21= -14.  Yup, that works!

Answer: -21 and 7

In a chemical plant, 24 holding tanks are used for final product storage. Four tanks are selected at random and without replacem
Damm [24]

Answer:

a) P(A) = 0,4607     or   P(A) = 46,07 %

b) P(B) = 0,7120   or 71,2 %

c) P(C) = 0,2055  or P(C) = 20,55 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use two concepts in solving this problem.

1.- The probability of an event (A) is for definition:

P(A) = Number of favorable events/ Total number of events FE/TE

2.- If A and B are complementary events ( the sum of them is equal to 1) then:

P(A) = 1 - P(B)

a) The total number of events is:

C ( 24,4) = 24! / 4! ( 24 - 4 )!    ⇒  C ( 24,4) = 24! / 4! * 20!

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21*20! / 4! * 20!  

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21/4*3*2

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21/4*3*2    ⇒  C ( 24,4) =  10626

TE = 10626

Splitting the group of tanks in two 6 with h-v  and 24-6 (18) without h-v

we get that total number of favorable events is the product of:

FE = 6* C ( 18, 3)  = 6 * 18! / 3!*15!  =  18*17*16*15!/15!

FE =  4896

Then P(A) ( 1 tank in the sample contains h-v material is:

P(A) = 4896/10626

P(A) = 0,4607     or   P(A) = 46,07 %

b) P(B) will be the probability of at least 1 tank contains h-v

P(B) = 1 - P ( no one tank with h-v)

Again Total number of events is 10626

The total number of favorable events for the ocurrence of P is C (18,4)

FE = C (18,4) = 18! / 14!*4! = 18*17*16*15*14!/14!*4!

FE = 18*17*16*15/4*3*2  = 3060

Then P = 3060/10626

P = 0,2879

And the probability we are looking for is

P(B) = 1 - 0,2879

P(B) = 0,7120   or 71,2 %

c) We call P(C) the probability of finding exactly 1 tank with h-v and t-i

having 4 with t-i tanks is:

reasoning the same way but now having 4 with t-i (impurities) number of favorable events is:

FE = 6*4* C(14,2) = 24 * 14!/12!*2!

FE = 24* 14*13*12! / 12!*2

FE = 24*14*13/2    ⇒  FE = 2184

And again as the TE = 10626

P(C) = 2184/ 10626

P(C) = 0,2055  or P(C) = 20,55 %
