Answer:
30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance/speed
If x represents Jane's speed along the summit then her total exploration time is ...
12/x + 40/(x -5) = 2 . . . . . hours
Multiplying by (x)(x -5), we get ...
12(x -5) +40(x) = 2(x)(x -5)
Dividing by 2 and subtracting the left side gives ...
x^2 -31x +30 = 0
(x -30)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions are x = 30 and x = 1, values of x that make the factors zero. A speed of 1 mph makes no sense in this problem, so ...
Jane's speed along the summit was 30 mph.
Answer:
13 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply 3.5 and 4.75
AKA
3 1/2 and 4 3/4
Change 1/2 into 2/4 so the denominators are the same
Multiply the numerators 2 and 3, you now have 6/4
3 × 4 = 12
6/4 is improper so, you need to simplify
now you have 1 1/2
Now 12 + 1 1/2 = 13 1/12
Answer:
107
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that after a ham is cured it may be smoked to add flavor or to ensure it lasts longer.
Let X be the smoking time . Then X is N(mu, 8)
a) The sample is drawn at random
b) The sample represents the population
c) Sample size is sufficient to represent the population
b)For 99% conf interval z critical is taken since population std dev is given
Z critical = 2.58
Hence confi interval = 
c) As sample sizes are large and samples are randomly drawn, we can be 99% confident that sample mean falls within this interval
d) If margin of error is only 2, then we must have
