Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: 16 cans

Step-by-step explanation: Think of it being in batches, you can make 4 batches of green paint with 24 cans of yellow paint, so you would need 16 cans of blue paint to get the same shade of green if you mix the 24 cans and 16 can's together at once

Lines k and n intersect on the y-axis

avanturin [10]

a) The equation of line k is:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}$

b) The equation of line j is:

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}$

The equation of a line, in <u>slope-intercept formula</u>, is given by:

$y = mx + b$

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

Item a:

Line k intersects line m with an angle of 109º, thus:

$\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}$

In which $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the slopes of <u>k and m.</u>

Line k goes through points (-3,-1) and (5,2), thus, it's slope is:

$m_1 = \frac{2 - (-1)}{5 - (-3)} = \frac{3}{8}$

The tangent of 109 degrees is $\tan{109^{\circ}} = -\frac{29}{10}$
Thus, the slope of line m is found solving the following equation:

$\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}$

$-\frac{29}{10} = \frac{m_2 - \frac{3}{8}}{1 + \frac{3}{8}m_2}$

$m_2 - \frac{3}{8} = -\frac{29}{10} - \frac{87}{80}m_2$

$m_2 + \frac{87}{80}m_2 = -\frac{29}{10} + \frac{3}{8}$

$\frac{167m_2}{80} = \frac{-202}{80}$

$m_2 = -\frac{202}{167}$

Thus:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b$

It goes through point (-2,6), that is, when $x = -2, y = 6$ , and this is used to find b.

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b$

$6 = -\frac{202}{167}(-2) + b$

$b = 6 - \frac{404}{167}$

$b = \frac{6(167)-404}{167}$

$b = \frac{598}{167}$

Thus. the equation of line k, in slope-intercept formula, is:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}$

Item b:

Lines j and k intersect at an angle of 90º, thus they are perpendicular, which means that the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Thus, the slope of line j is:

$-\frac{202}{167}m = -1$

$m = \frac{167}{202}$

Then

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + b$

Also goes through point (-2,6), thus:

$6 = \frac{167}{202}(-2) + b$

$b = \frac{(2)167 + 202(6)}{202}$

$b = \frac{1546}{202}$

The equation of line j is:

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}$

The speed of a boat in still water is 40 mph. If it takes the same time for the boat to travel 8 miles upstream as it does to tr

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Current speed is 40mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We firstly need to know what is intended by upstream and downstream. When the boat travels in the direction of the current (horizontal movement of the water), we say it is moving downstream otherwise it is moving upstream.

Let's assume the speed of the boat is A and that of the current is B, then the speed when it moves dowstream would be A + B and the speed if it moves upstream would be A – B.

In this question, we know that the speed of the boat is 40mph. Given that it takes the same time to travel 8miles upstream as it does to travel 24miles downstream, we have

Speed upstream = 8/t

Speed downstream = 24/t

Respectively.

Let speed of current be X, then

Speed downstream = 40 + X

Speed upstream = 40 – X

From the question we have:

(40 + x)/24 = (40 – X)/8

(40 + x)/3 = (40 – x)/1

3(40 – x) = 40 + X

120 – 3x = 40 – X

120 – 40 = 3x – X

2x = 80

X = 40.

Therefore, current speed is 40mph

Find the probability p(e or f) if e and f are mutually exclusive, p(e)equals 0.25, and p(f)equals 0.51.

Masteriza [31]

The definition of two events being mutually exclusive (or disjoint) only means that it is not possible for the two events to occur together. Given two events, E and F, they are mutually exclusive and also mean independent.

In this case, since events E and F are mutually exclusive, therefore the probability that either E or F will occur will simply be the sum of two events.

P (E or F) = P (E) + P (F)

P (E or F) = 0.25 + 0.51

P (E or F) = 0.76

Therefore this means that there is a 76% probability that either E or F will occur.
