Answer:

a) \frac{19}{52}

b) \frac{7}{52}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 52

Number of students who are democrats = 26

Number of students who are business majors = 12

Number of students who are business majors as well as democrats = 7

Now, lets come to the question.

a) Number of students who are democrats but not business majors =

(Number of democrats) - (Number of democrats as well as business majors)

⇒ 26 - 7

⇒ 19

∴ P (Democrat who is not a business major) = \frac{19}{52}

b) Number of students who are neither democrats nor business majors =

(Total number of students) - (Number of democrats + Number of business majors + Number of democrats as well as business majors)

⇒ 52 - (26 + 12 + 7)

⇒ 52 - 45

⇒ 7

∴ P (Neither democrat nor business major) = \frac{7}{52}

George walks 1 mile to school. He leaves home at the same time each day, walks at a steady speed of 3 miles per hour, and arrive
alex41 [277]

Answer:

George must run the last half mile at a speed of 6 miles per hour in order to arrive at school just as school begins today

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the number of hours George must walk to arrive at school the normal time he arrives given that his speed is different from what it used to be.

Let’s first start at looking at how many hours he take per day on a normal day, all things being equal.

Mathematically;

time = distance/speed

He walks 1 mile at 3 miles per hour.

Thus, the total amount of time he spend each normal day would be;

time = 1/3 hour or 20 minutes

Now, let’s look at his split journey today. What we know is that by adding the times taken for each side of the journey, he would arrive at the school the normal time he arrives given that he left home at the time he used to.

Let the unknown speed be x miles/hour

Mathematically;

We shall be using the formula for time by dividing the distance by the speed

1/3 = 1/2/(2) + 1/2/x

1/3 = 1/4 + 1/2x

1/2x = 1/3 - 1/4

1/2x = (4-3)/12

1/2x = 1/12

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6 miles per hour

Suppose a family drives at an average rate of 60 mi/h on their way to visit relatives and then an average rate of 40 mi/h on the
hammer [34]

Answer:

Part A) 2 hours

Part B) d/60 hours

Part C) 48 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Let "d" be the distance in miles the family traveled to visit their relatives. How many hours did it take to drive there?

we know that

Let

x ----> the time it take on their way to visit relatives in hours

y ---> the time it take on the way back in hours

we know that

The distance of the way to visit is equal to the distance of the way back

The speed multiplied by the time is equal to the distance

so

60x=40y -----> equation A

y=x+1 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x

60x=40(x+1)

60x=40x+40

20x=40

x=2 hours

Find the value of y

y=2+1=3 hours

d=60x

The time it take on their way to visit relatives is 2 hours

The time it take on the way back is 3 hours

Part B) In terms of "d," how many hours did it take to drive there?

we have that

The distance is equal to the speed multiplied by the time

d=60x

Solve for x

x=d/60 hours

Part C) Write and solve an equation to determine the distance the family drove to see their relatives. What was the average rate for the entire trip?

To find the average rate for the whole trip we will need the total distance and the total time

The distance of the way to visit is

d=60x

substitute the value of x

d=60(2)=120 miles

so

The total distance is

120(2)=240 miles

we know that the total time is

2 + 3 =5 hours

The average rate for the complete trip is

240/5=48 miles/hour
