Which ratio is higher 15:20 or 12:16. for 35 points

Margarita [4]

To find which ratio is higher, we can first convert the ratios into fractions (that makes it easier, at least for me) and then simplify the fractions and see which one is greater.

Since ratios are basically division, 15:20 = $\frac{15}{20}$ , and

12:16 = $\frac{12}{16}$

Now we simplify these fractions. 15 and 20 have a GCF of 5, so taking out the common number gives us the simplified fraction of $\frac{3}{4}$ .

12 and 16 have a GCF of 4, so taking out the common number gives us the simplified fraction of $\frac{3}{4}$ . Since $\frac{3}{4}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$ , these ratios are the same.

During a recent eruption, the volcano spewed out copious amount of ash. One small piece of ash was ejected from the volcano with

nlexa [21]

For question number 1:The plot H = H(t) is the parabola and it reaches its maximum in the moment when exactly at midpoint between the roots t = 0 and t = 23. At that moment t = 23/2 or 11.5 seconds.
For question number 2:To find the maximal height, just simply substitute t = 11.5 into the quadratic equation. The answer would be 22.9.
For question number 3:H(t) = 0, or, which is the same as -16t^2 + 368t = 0.Factor the left side to get -16*t*(t - 23) = 0.t = 0, relates to the very start of the process, when the ash started its way up.The other root is t = 23 seconds, and it is precisely the time moment when the bit of ash will go back to the ground.

Determine the equilibrium solutions

We have:

$\frac{dR}{dt} = 0.09R(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001RW$

$\frac{dW}{dt} = -0.02W + 0.00004RW$

To solve this, we first equate $\frac{dR}{dt}$ and $\frac{dW}{dt}$ to 0.

So, we have:

$0.09R(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001RW = 0$

$-0.02W + 0.00004RW = 0$

Factor out R in $0.09R(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001RW = 0$

$R(0.09(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001W) = 0$

Split

$R = 0$ or $0.09(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001W = 0$

$R = 0$ or $0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001W = 0$

Factor out W in $-0.02W + 0.00004RW = 0$

$W(-0.02 + 0.00004R) = 0$

Split

$W = 0$ or $-0.02 + 0.00004R = 0$

Solve for R

$-0.02 + 0.00004R = 0$

$0.00004R = 0.02$

Make R the subject

$R = \frac{0.02}{0.00004}$

$R = 500$

When $R = 500$ , we have:

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001W = 0$

$0.09 -2.25 * 10^{-5} * 500 - 0.001W = 0$

$0.09 -0.01125 - 0.001W = 0$

$0.07875 - 0.001W = 0$

Collect like terms

$- 0.001W = -0.07875$

Solve for W

$W = \frac{-0.07875}{ - 0.001}$

$W = 78.75$

$W \approx 79$

$(R,W) \to (500,79)$

When $W = 0$ , we have:

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001W = 0$

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001*0 = 0$

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R = 0$

Collect like terms

$- 2.25 * 10^{-5}R = -0.09$

Solve for R

$R = \frac{-0.09}{- 2.25 * 10^{-5}}$

$R = 4000$

So, we have:

$(R,W) \to (4000,0)$

When $R =0$ , we have:

$-0.02W + 0.00004RW = 0$

$-0.02W + 0.00004W*0 = 0$

$-0.02W + 0 = 0$

$-0.02W = 0$

$W=0$

So, we have:

$(R,W) \to (0,0)$

Hence, the points of equilibrium are:

$(0,0)$ $(4000,0)$ and $(500,79)$

The histogram shows the distribution of hurricanes that have hit a country from 1851 through 2015, where 1 is the weakest level

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

a) mean = 0.2

variance = 0.0391

standard deviation = 0.198

b) The average hurricane is aprox. category 2.* (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation, let us for a table for the data:

level x

1 0.411

2 0.278

3 0.221

4 0.080

5 0.010

Calculating the mean ( $\bar{x}$ )

$\bar{x} = \frac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4 + x_5}{n}\\\\\bar{x} = \frac{0.411 + 0.278 + 0.221 + 0.080 + 0.010}{5}\\\bar{x} = \frac{1}{5}\\ \bar{x} = 0.2$

∴Mean = 0.2

level x $x- \bar{x}$ $(x - \bar{x})^2$

1 0.411 0.211 0.0445

2 0.278 0.078 0.0608

3 0.221 0.021 0.000441

4 0.080 -0.12 0.0144

5 0.010 -0.19 0.0361

$\sum(x - \bar{x})^2 = 0.1562$

$variance = \frac{\sum(x - \bar{x})^2}{n-1} \\variance = \frac{0.1562}{4} \\variance = 0.0391$

standard deviation = √(variance)

Standard deviation = √(0.0391)

Standard deviation = 0.198

b) the average hurricane is aprox. category 2 (B)
