Answer:
the numbers who's difference is 16 and the product is 720 is
36 &20
Explanation:
to finding numbers you have to express the equation in a quadratic equation then Factor it.
since the two numbers have a difference of 16 you can say that the first number is x and the second number is x -16 then their product is 720.
x(x-16)=720
x²-16x=720
x²-16x-720=0
(x-36)(x+20)
there are two possible value of x but since you are looking for the positive value of x, choose the positive value of x the first number is 20.
To find the second number
x-16=20
x=20+16
x=36
the second number is 36

Answer:
a) 2/3
b) 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random event that measures the time you will have to wait.
Since time is uniformly distributed between 10 and 10:30 in intervals of 1 minute
P(n < X ≤ n+1) = 1/30 for every minute n=0,1,...29.
a)
P( X > 10) = 1 - P(X ≤ 10) = 1 - 10/30 = 2/3
b)
P(10 < X ≤ 20) = (20-10)/30 = 1/3

Answer:
s = 71 mph, and s+9 = f = 80 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The distances the two busses travel add up to 604 mi.
Letting f be the faster speed and s the slower. Then f = s + 9 (mph).
Then (s + 9)(mph)(4 hr) + (s)(mph)(4 hr) = 604 mi. Solve this for s:
4s + 36 + 4s = 604 mi, or 8s = 568. Finally, s = 71 mph, and s+9 = f = 80 mph.
