Answer:

Notice that the distance is in the y-axis, and the time in the x-axis.

First, let's see what happens in the four points:

A) You can see that in point A, the steepness of the line increases, this means that the speed of the runner increases in that point.

B) In this point, the runner that increased his/her speed in point A crosses the graph of another runner, this means that they are at the same distance to the end and at the same time.

C) In this point again two runners are at the same distance and the same time, and we also can see that the runer that increased his/her speed at point A, now has reached the end of the race (because his line stops increasing, wich means that he/she already finished the race)

D) The las runner finishes the race at point D.

Then the first runner that finishes the race is the one with the shorter graph (shorter graph means that he ran for less time than the others, wich means that he/she finished first)

The last runner is the one that finished at point D,

The middle one finishes right after the point C.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

17 tour guides

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to divide 83 by 5.

  • 83 ÷ 5 = 16 R 3

As you can see, there are 16 tour guides that can handle 5 students each. However, there are a remainder of 3 students, so we need one extra tour guide. Thus, the answer is 17 tour guides.

vesna_86 [32]

VARIABLE is a symbol which is used for representation in a  math.

According to the statement

we have to explain about the what is a variable.

So, VARIABLE is a symbol which is used for representation in a  math.

It represent the so many things like Algebra, Matrix,Vector etc. and also so many things.

A variable may also be called a data item.

It is used to represent a data like country name, name, age, date of birth etc.

we know that the every thing is changeable. So, like ther things variables are also changeable.

The changing of variable parameters is called as variation. In problems relating to two or more variables, it is seen that the value of a variable changes with the change in the value.

So, VARIABLE is a symbol which is used for representation in a  math.

Two urns each contain green balls and blue balls. Urn I contains 4 green balls and 6 blue balls, and Urn II contains 6 green bal
Morgarella [4.7K]
Urn 1 = 4 green balls and 6 blue balls, a total of 10 balls
Urn 2 = 6 green balls and 2 blue balls, a total of 8 balls.

Probability of blue balls:
Urn 1 : P = 6/10 
Urn 2 : P = 2/8 

Probability that both balls are blue:
6/10 * 2/8 = 6*2 / 10*8 = 12/80 = 6/40 = 3/20 

Answer is B. 3/20
