During a scuba dive, Lainey descended to a point 19 feet below the ocean surface. She continued her descent at a rate of 25 feet

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

$25t+19\leq 144$

$t\leq5$

The number of minutes she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 144 feet below the ocean surface is <u>at most 5 minutes.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial depth of the scuba dive = 19 ft

Rate of descent = 25 ft/min

Maximum depth to be reached = 144 ft

Now, after 't' minutes, the depth reached by the scuba dive is equal to the sum of the initial depth and the depth covered in 't' minutes moving at the given rate.

Framing in equation form, we get:

Total depth = Initial Depth + Rate of descent × Time

Total depth = $19+25t$

Now, as per question, the total depth should not be more than 144 feet. So,

$\textrm{Total depth}\leq 144\ ft\\\\19+25t\leq 144\\\\or\ 25t+19\leq 144$

Solving the above inequality for time 't', we get:

$25t+19\leq 144\\\\25t\leq 144-19\\\\25t\leq 125\\\\t\leq \frac{125}{25}\\\\t\leq 5\ min$

Therefore, the number of minutes she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 144 feet below the ocean surface is at most 5 minutes.

6th grade math help me pleaseeee

Helga [31]

Answer:

First one.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3/3=0.1 ==> 0.1$ per meter

0.77/7 ==> 0.11$ per meter

The first option is cheaper, therefore better to buy if you agree with "the cheaper. the better".

Directed line segment has endpoints P(– 8, – 4) and Q(4, 12). Determine the point that partitions the directed line segment in a

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Point (1,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use segment formula to find the coordinates of point that will partition our line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

When a point divides any segment internally in the ratio m:n, the formula is:

$[x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y= \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]$

Let us substitute coordinates of point P and Q as:

$x_1=-8$ ,

$y_1=-4$

$x_2=4$

$y_2=12$

$m=3$

$n=1$

$[x=\frac{(3*4)+(1*-8)}{3+1},y=\frac{(3*12)+(1*-4)}{3+1}]$

$[x=\frac{12-8}{4},y=\frac{36-4}{4}]$

$[x=\frac{4}{4},y=\frac{32}{4}]$

$[x=1,y=8]$

Therefore, point (1,8) will partition the directed line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

The weight for crates of apples is normally distributed with a mean weight of 34.6 pounds and a standard deviation of 2.8 pounds

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

42.22% probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 34.6, \sigma = 2.8$
