Answer:
Avis Company is a car rental company that is located three miles from the Los Angeles airport (LAX). Avis is dispatching a bus from its offices to the airport every 2 minutes. The average traveling time (round-trip) is 20 minutes.
a. How many Avis buses are traveling to and from the airport?
b. The branch manager wants to improve the service and suggests dispatching buses every 0.5 minutes. She argues that this will reduce the average traveling time from the airport to Avis offices to 2.5 minutes. Is she correct? If your answer is negative, then what will the average traveling time be?
The answers to the question are
a. 10 buses
b. Yes, increasing the fleet by a factor of 4 will reduce the apparent average travel time from the airport to Avid offices from 10 minutes to 2.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of buses dispatched every 20 minutes= 20÷2=10
Therefore 10 Avid buses are travelling to and from the Los Angeles airport
b. By dispatching every 0.5 minutes we have 20÷0.5 = 40 buses.
Since with 10 buses it takes 10 minutes to make the journey from the airport to Avid offices, then it would take 40 buses 10÷4 = 2.5 minutes time to deliver what it took 10 buses, 10 minutes to deliver.
X^2+14x-176=0
(x+22)(x-8)
x=-22,8
This is because the 2 numbers in the factorisation must have multiple of 176& and a sum of 14
Answer:
445.5 minutes
or 7 hours 25 minutes 30 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use ratio's to solve
50 ft^2 495 ft^2
-------------- = ------------
45 minutes x minutes
Using cross products
50x = 45*495
50x=22275
Divide each side by 50
50x/50 = 22275/50
x =445.5
445.5 minutes
If we want to convert to hours and minutes, divide by 60
7 hours is 420 minutes
445.5 -420 = 25.5
7 hours 25 minutes
.5 minutes is 30 seconds
7 hours 25 minutes 30 seconds
15/20=.6
1-.6=.4
It decreased 40% since last year <span />
