The Gotemba walking trail up Mount Fuji is about 9 kilometres (km) long. Walkers need to return from the 18 km walk by 8 pm. Tos

hi estimates that he can walk up the mountain at 1.5 kilometres per hour on average, and down at twice that speed. These speeds take into account meal breaks and rest times. Using Toshi's estimated speeds, what is the latest time he can begin his walk so that he can return by 8 pm?

Answer:

He must start his journey by 11 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Toshi while walking up the mountains is 1.5 kilometres per hour

Speed of Toshi while walking down  the mountains = 2 * Speed of Toshi while walking up the mountains = 3 kilometres per hour

Time taken to travel 9 Km in the upward direction by Toshi = 9 Km/1.5 kilometres per hour = 6 hours

Time taken to travel 9 Km in the downward direction by Toshi = 9 Km/3 kilometres per hour = 3 hours

He will take total 6 hours + 3 hours = 9 hours to travel 18 Km distance

Thus, He must start his journey by 11 AM

It is known that 10% of the calculators shipped from a particular factory are defective. What is the probability that exactly th
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:0.0081  or 0.81%

Step-by-step explanation:

The required probability is P(3,5,0.1)= C5 3 * p^3*q^2, where

C5 3=  5!/3/2=4*5/2=10

p is the probability that one randomly selected calculator is defective= 10%=0.1

q is the probability that one randomly selected calculator is non-defective.

q=1-p=1-0.1=0.9

So P(3,5,0.1)= 10*0.1^3*0.9^2=0.01*0.81=0.0081

John has less than 15 video games what is the inequality?
lidiya [134]

Answer: well, we don't have another number so i'll use variables

VG < 15

An easy way to remember what is the lesser value is to think of an alligator; the alligator wants to eat the bigger prey so in your case the bigger prey would be 15.

0. Kevin needs to buy shrubs for his yard. Six shrubs at the nursery cost $72.00. At the garden
Elanso [62]

Answer:

72÷6=12

so at the nursery it cost $12 per shrub

66÷6=11

so at the store it cost $11 per shrub

so if you buy 21 shrubs from the nursery it will cost: 12×21=$252

but if you buy 21 shrubs from the store it only cost: 11×21=$231

$252-$231=$21
