Speed of the boat = u
speed of the current = v

in downstream,
u - v = 105/5
u - v = 21

in upstream
u + v = 105/7
u + v = 15

add both equations
2u = 36
u = 18

v = -3

so
speed of the boat = 18 km/h
speed of the current = 3 km/h

The value of the 9 is ten times the value of the 9 in 329,513. The value of the 2 is one-tenth the value of the 2 in 7,562. The
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: The number is 90,000.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Extracting key information from the question:-

*** The value of the "9" in Lea's riddle is 10 times the one in 329,513

*** The value of the "2" in the riddle is 1/10 the value of the 2 in 7,562.

*** The value of the 6 in the riddle is one-tenth the value of the 6 in 4.68

*** We are required to solve this possible and reveal the number.

Now, in the number 329,513 the place value of 9 is 9,000. According to the information provided, the value of the 9 in the riddle is ten times the value of the 9 in 329,513.

So, multiplying 9000 by 10 gives:-

9,000 × 10

= 90,000

Again, the value of the 2 in the riddle is one-tenth (1/10) the value of the 2 in 7,562. The value of 2 in 7,562 is 2 units, therefore one-tenth of this 2 units will give:-

1/10 × 2

= 0.2

Similarly, the value of 6 in the puzzle is one-tenth (1/10) the value of the 6 in 4.68; The 6 here is 6 hundredth = 0.6

Therefore, the value of 6 in the puzzle is:

1/10 × 0.6

= 0.06

In order to discover the number in Lea's riddle, we will then add up the calculated values:-

= 90,000 + 0.2 + 0.006

= 90,000.26

This number is the answer to Lea's riddle.

A banks loan officer rates applicants for credit. The ratings are normally distributed with a mean of 200 and a standard deviati
Alona [7]

Answer:

2.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information:

mean (m) = 200

standard deviation (sd) = 50

sample size = n = 40

the probability that their mean is above 21.5 is determined as follows:

P (x> 21.5) = P [(x - m) / (sd / n ^ (1/2))> (21.5 - 200) / (50/40 ^ (1/2))]

P (x> 21.5) = P (z> -22.57)

this value is very strange, therefore I suggest that it is not 21.5 but 215, therefore it would be:

P (x> 215) = P [(x - m) / (sd / n ^ (1/2))> (215 - 200) / (50/40 ^ (1/2))]

P (x> 215) = P (z> 1.897)

P (x> 215) = 1 - P (z <1.897)

We look for this value in the attached table of z and we have to:

P (x> 215) = 1 - 0.9713 (attached table)

P (x> 215) =.0287

Therefore the probability is approximately 2.87%
