You’re given 3 timings, all in the format of mm:ss (29:12 for example would mean 29 minutes and 12 seconds). They are labelled a

s x, y and z.
When they’re all rounded to the nearest whole number, x, y and z are 29, 29 and 13 respectively, all in minutes.

Thus, when x, y and z are added together, what are the chances that the result is 72 minutes, when rounded to the nearest whole number.

29 + 29 + 13 = 71
The range of possible times in seconds for x is 28:30 - 29:29. Similarly for y.
The range of possible times for z is 12:30 - 13:29
The range of possible values for x + y + z = 69:30 - 72:27 which is 178 seconds long
To be recorded as 72 minutes the sum would be in the range 71:30 - 72:27 which is 58 seconds long
P(result recorded as 72 min) = 58/178

If you simply used the ranges [28.5, 29.5) [28.5, 29.5) and [12.5, 13.5)
then the sum would be in the range [69.5, 72.5)
and P(result recorded as 72 min) = 60 seconds / 180 seconds = 1/3

Using discrete times in seconds gives a slightly different answer but is also much harder to understand.

Mrs. B. invested ¢30,000; part at 5%, and part at 8%. The total interest on the
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Let p be the amount invested at 8%. Then the amount invested at 5% would be 30,000-p. So:

.08p+.05(30,000-p)=2100

.03p+1500=2100

.03p=600

p=20,000

$20,000 was invested at 8%; $10,000 was invested at 5%

Graph the system of equations. Then determine whether the system has no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions. If
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

It has one solution (1,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 2

y = 4x -4

Substitute the y's

4x - 4 = -2x + 2

Let's move the variables to one side

4x - 4 = -2x + 2

+2x       +2x

6x - 4 = 2

Lets move the constant to the other side

6x - 4 = 2

     +4   +4

6x = 6

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1

Let go back to y = -2x + 2

Substitute the x with 1

y = -2(1) + 2

y = -2 + 2

y = 0

Is this relation a function? EXPLAIN WHY OR WHY NOT
olga_2 [115]

This relation is a function, because you are assigning one y-value to each x-value. In other words, you can perform the vertical line test: you can see that every vertical line crosses the graph at most once.
