Answer: 12 men would be needed to repair the same road in 3 1/3 hrs. Inverse proportion because usually in work,food and time its inversly proportional.

8 hours --> 5 men

1 hour --> 5*8 = 40 men

3 1/3 hours --> 40/ (3 1/3) men

                  --> 12 men

Probability The average time between incoming calls at a switchboard is 3 minutes.if a call has just come in,the probability tha
Stels [109]

Answer:

a) 0.1535

b) 0.4866

c) 0.8111

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the next call come within the next t minutes is:

  • p(t) = 1 -e ^{- t/3}

According to this model,

a) the probability that a call in comes within 1/2 minutes is p(t) = 1 -e ^{- (1/2)/3} =0.1535

b) the probability that a call in comes within 2 minutes is  p(t) = 1 -e ^{-2/3} =0.4866

c) the probability that a call in comes within 5 minutes is  p(t) = 1 -e ^{-5/3} =0.8111

Using algebra, find the point at which the line k(x) = 5x - 1 intersects with the line h(x) = -3x - 1 ?
vichka [17]

The point at which the lines k(x) = 5x - 1 and h(x) = -3x - 1 meet is (0, -1)

Given: k(x) = 5x - 1, h(x) = -3x - 1

We need to find the point(if any) at which these two lines k and h meets.

To find point of intersection(if any), we need to set the functions equal as at the point of intersection the (x, y) value will be same for both of the lines.

Therefore, k(x) = h(x)

=> 5x - 1 = -3x - 1

=> 8x = 0

=> x = 0

k(x=0) = 5 * 0  - 1 = -1

Hence the point at which the lines k(x) = 5x - 1 and h(x) = -3x - 1 meet is (0, -1)

A questionnaire has determined that 20% of the residents of Flaugamuck County own an iPod. Furthermore, 80% of these iPod owners
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

P = 7.14%

The percentage of those 30 years or older that own an ipod is 7.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Percentage of ipod owners Pi = 20%

Percentage who don't own ipod Pd = 100-20 = 80%

For age 30 or older;

Percentage of ipod owners who belong to this group

Po = 20% of Pi

Percentage who don't have an ipod but belong to this group Pu = 100-35% = 65% of Pd

The percentage of those 30 years or older that own an ipod is;

P = Po/(Po+Pu) × 100%

Po = 20% of Pi = 20% of 20% = 0.2×20 =4%

Pu = 65% of Pd = 65% of 80% = 0.65×80% = 52%

Substituting the values;

P = 4/(4+52) × 100%

P = 7.14%
