We have to deal with the distance in more detail
If the turtle is 11 times faster than the snail, the amount of distance he will cover is 11 times more.
d/(360 - d) = 1/11
11d = 360 - d
12d = 360
d =  30  The Snail covers 30 meters. The turtle covers 11*30 = 330 meters.

Answers
Rate of snail = 30 meters / 40 minutes = 3/4 meter / minute
Rate of turtle = 330 meters / 40 minutes = 8.25 meters / minute.

Assume that blood pressure readings are normally distributed with a mean of 123 and a standard deviation of 9.6. If 144 people a
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The probability is 0.9938

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the probability that the mean blood pressure readings of a group of people is less than a certain reading.

To calculate this, we use the z score.

Mathematically;

z = (mean - value)/(standard deviation/√N)

From the question, we can identify that the mean is 125, the value is 123 , the standard deviation is 9.6 and N ( total population is 144)

Let’s plug these values;

z = (125-123)/(9.6/√144) = 2.5

Now we proceed to calculate the probability with a s score less than 2.5 using statistical tables

P(z<2.5) = 0.9938

The expression 120-15x represents how many invitations Luanne has to address after x days. The expression 120 + 15(7-x) represen
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

not possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

number of invitations luanne  has to address after x days = 120-15x

number of invitations  Darius has to address after x days =  120 + 15(7-x)

so, if the number of invitations should be the same for both of them,

we have to equate their number of invitations

120-15x =  120 + 15(7-x)

subtracting 120 from both the sides,

-15x = 15(7-x) = 105 -15x

adding we 15x on both sides, we wont find any solution for x.

so, this isnt possible or the question must be wrong.

Obtuse Triangles are _____ Iscoceles triangles
Annette [7]

Answer:

sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is an "always, sometimes, never" kind of problem, the answer is sometimes.

An isosceles triangle can be an obtuse triangle sometimes (but might be right or acute. An obtuse triangle can be isosceles or may be scalene. An obtuse triangle cannot be a right triangle nor equilateral.

The names for triangles comes from their angles:

right, acute, obtuse;

OR from their sides:

scalene, isosceles, equilateral.
