Answer:

To calculate how many total miles Rachel runs per minute, setting up a unit rate, that is a rate with a denominator of 1, would be helpful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the current problem to determine a rate.

23 minutes/4 miles

Now, set up a unit rate.

1 minute/x miles = 23 minutes/4 miles

To solve for x, we can use simple division strategies. We divide 23 by 23 to receive 1 minute. Likewise, dividing the current milage by 23 would wield the correct unit rate. To do this, divide 4 by 23.

4/23 = 0.1739130434782609

Finally, simplify your answer to receive 0.17.

Therefore, Rachel runs ~0.17 miles per minute. (Note that this answer is only a rounded answer of her actual milage per minute)

Answer:

Rate parameter of $\mu = 0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

One appearance per two minutes.

This means that $m = 2$

Measured in minutes, the time T until the next encounter is Exponential with what rate parameter?

$\mu = \frac{1}{m} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5$

Rate parameter of $\mu = 0.5$

Formula for the area of a circle in terms of its circumference

Usimov [2.4K]

$\bf \textit{circumference of a circle}\\\\
C=2\pi r\qquad \qquad \implies \cfrac{C}{2\pi }=\boxed{r}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{area of a circle}\\\\
A=\pi r^2\qquad \qquad \implies A=\pi \left( \boxed{\cfrac{C}{2\pi }} \right)^2\implies A=\pi \left( \cfrac{C^2}{(2\pi )^2} \right)
\\\\\\
A=\cfrac{\pi C^2}{2^2\pi^2}\implies A=\cfrac{C^2}{4\pi }$

Answer:

1. F

2. T

3. T

4. T

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break down the definitions.

Quadrilateral - A polygon with 4 sides

Square - A quadrilateral with 4 equal sides and 90 degree angles

Rectangle - A quadrilateral with 4 sides with opposite sides that are congruent and have 90 degree angles

Parallelogram - A quadrilateral with 4 sides with opposite sides that are congruent and do not have 90 degree angles

Rhombus - A quadrilateral with 4 equal sides but does not have 90 degree angles

Now let's look at the questions.

Does every 4 sided figure have equal sides? - No

Is a rectangle with 4 equal sides a square? - Yes

Is every parallelogram with 4 equal sides a parallelogram? - Yes

Is every 4 equal sided figure a figure with opposite sides that are equal? - Yes
