2. A spider can walk at a certain speed and run at

Mathematics

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance covered to the time taken. Speed is given by the formula:

speed = distance / time.

Let us assume the spider walking speed is x and its running speed is y.

If the spider walks for 10 seconds and runs for 9  seconds, she travels 85m. distance = speed * time, hence:

Total distance = distance covered walking + distance covered running

10x + 9y = 85     (1)

Also if she walks for 30 seconds and  runs for 2 seconds, she travels 130m. Hence:

30x + 2y = 130   (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously by mutiplying equation 1 by 3 and subtracting equation 2 from the result:

25y = 125

y =5 m/s

Put  y = 5 in eqn. 2

30x + 2(5) = 130

30x = 120

x = 4 m/s

The spider walks at 4 m/s and runs at 5 m/s

So the x intercepts are going to be at the places where y = 0 so you can just read that off and get (-2,0) and (3,0). Hope this helps :)

The proportion of brown M&M's in a milk chocolate packet is approximately 14%. Suppose a package of M&M's typically cont
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scenario above :

A) State the random variable.

The random variable is the p opoertion of brown M&M's in a milk chocolate packet.

B.) Argue that this is a binomial experiment.

Each trial is independent for a total number of 52 trials with a set probability of success at 0.14

C) probability that 6 M&M's are brown:.

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1-p)^(n-x)

p = 0.14 ; (1 - p) = 0.86 ; n = 52 ; x = 6

P(x = 6) = 52C6 × 0.14^6 × 0.86^46

= 20358520 × 0.00000752954 × 0.00097035078

= 0.1487

D) P(x =25)

P(x = 25) = 52C25 × 0.14^25 × 0.86^27

= 477551179875952 × 449.987958058*10^(-24) × 0.01703955245

= 0.00000000366

E) P(x = 52)

P(x = 52) = 52C52 × 0.14^52 × 0.86^0

= 1 × 3968.78758299*10^(-48) × 1

= 3968.78758299*10^(-48)

F) yes it would be unusual, because such probability is extremely low. However, if a huge or substantial number of trials such may occur
