Solution :

It is given that Little Snail is going to visit one of his friend at the pond which is 3 miles away.

When the snail crawls 1/2 of a mile per day, it will take him, $1 \times \frac{2}{1} \times 3$

   =  6 days to get to the next pond.

When the snail crawls 1/3 of a mile per day, it will take him, $1 \times \frac{3}{1} \times 3$

   =  9 days to get to the next pond.

When the snail crawls 1/4 of a mile per day, it will take him, $1 \times \frac{4}{1} \times 3$

   = 12 days to get to the next pond.

When the snail crawls 3/4 of a mile per day, it will take him, $1 \times \frac{4}{3} \times 3$

   =  4 days to get to the next pond.

When the snail crawls 2/3 of a mile per day, it will take him, $1 \times \frac{3}{2} \times 3$

   =  4.5 days to get to the next pond.

Answer:

The correct option is;

C. (1.6, 1.3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at x = 1.5 the y-values of both equations are y = 1.5 and y = 1 respectively

The x-value > The y-value

The difference in the y-values = 1.5 - 1 = 0.5

At x = 1.6 the y-values of both equations are y = 1.2 and y = 1.4 respectively

The x-value > The y-value

The difference in the y-values = 1.2 - 1.4 = -0.2

At x = 1.7 the y-values of both equations are y = 0.9 and y = 1.8 respectively

The x-value > The first y-value and the x-value < the second y-value

The difference in the y-values = 0.9 - 1.8 = 0.9

Therefore, the approximate y-value can be found by taking the average of both y-values when x = 1.6 where the difference in the y-values is least as follows;

Average y-value at x = 1.6 = (1.2 + 1.4)/2 = 1.3

Therefore, the best approximation of the exact solution is (1.6, 1.3)

By calculation, we have;

-3·x + 6 = 4·x - 5

∴ 7·x = 11

x = 11/7 ≈ 1.57

y = 4 × 11/7 - 5 ≈ 1.29

The solution is (1.57, 1.29)

The weight, X, of cherry tomatoes selected at random from a very large bin at the local supermarket follows a Normal distributio
Vesna [10]

Answer: the probability that exactly 5 of the 8 cherry tomatoes weigh less than 4 oz is 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

X has normal distribution has mean µ = 3

standard deviation σ = 2  

now

P( x< 4) = P( (x-µ)/σ /(3-4)/5)

= P( z < -0.5 )

= 0.3085  {from the z-table}

X has binomial distribution with n = 8 and p = 0.3085

so P(x=5)

P(x=5) = 8C₅(0.3085)⁵ (1 - 0.3085)⁸⁻⁵

= 0.0517  ≈ 0.05

Therefore the probability that exactly 5 of the 8 cherry tomatoes weigh less than 4 oz is 0.05
