Answer:

a. Sample space = { (t₁ , t₂ ) | 0 < t₁ < T , 0 < t₂ < T }

b.A₁ = { t₂ < t₁ < t₂ + a₂ }

  A₂ = { t₁ < t₂ < t₁ + a₁ }

  if t₁ - t₂ < a₂ , t₂ - t₁ < a₁

c. A₃ = { t₂ + a₂ < t₁ < t₂ + a₂ + 1 }

   A₄ = { t₁ + a₁ < t₂ < t₁ + a₁ + 1 }

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

A train begins crossing the road at time t₁

The car begins crossing the track at time t₂

where 0 < t₁ < T and 0 < t₂ < T

a.)

Sample space = { (t₁ , t₂ ) | 0 < t₁ < T , 0 < t₂ < T }

b.)

Given that -

The train takes a₁ seconds to cross the road

The car takes a₂ seconds to cross the track.

So, The set that correspond to collision is

A₁ = { t₂ < t₁ < t₂ + a₂ }

A₂ = { t₁ < t₂ < t₁ + a₁ }

if t₁ - t₂ < a₂ , t₂ - t₁ < a₁

c)

The set that corresponds to a collision is missed by 1 second or less is -

A₃ = { t₂ + a₂ < t₁ < t₂ + a₂ + 1 }

A₄ = { t₁ + a₁ < t₂ < t₁ + a₁ + 1 }

Solve this equation:<br> X – 8<br> 6<br> = 4.5<br> Your answer
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Multiply by 6 on both sides

X-8 = 27

add 8 to both sides

X = 35

Hope this helps

Double-checking

35 - 8 = 27

27 / 6 = 4.5

35 = X is the answer

Hope this helps

an easier way to do this is simply by multiplying 47.40x115%, which is 54.51.

another way to do this is by multiplying 47.40x15%, which is 7.11, then you'll have to added to 47.4, which gives you the same answer of 54.51

Look at this graph.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:  y= 1/4 x + 500

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the difference in y-values divided by difference in x-values plus the starting constant value (500 on the graph)

700 - 600  is the difference in y-values = 100

800 - 400 is the difference in x-values  = 400

100/400 = 1/4

y = x/4 +500
