Answer:

4.5 hours

Explanation:

Let the time for the bicycle be t, then the time for walking is 7 - t

Distance for walking is 4*(7 - t)

Distance for cycling is 44*t

Total distance 4*(7 - t) + 44t = 208

28 - 4t + 44t = 208

40t = 208 - 28 = 180

so t = 180/40 = 4.5 hours.

Bogdan [553]
The most sensible answer is to:
A) Report his findings.

As a scientist it is his job to conduct experiments based on hypothesis or theories and from this experiments, give a detailed description, explanation, and conclusion about the experiment. This is the reason scientists and doctors write articles about their research, to make the public aware of such discoveries so that future researchers don't have to spend time valuable time and further studies can be based on such experimental report.

D) Would also be correct 'If' the scientist didn't find the expected answer to his hypothesis. This would cause the scientist to perform further experiments to find a reasonable justification and give a conclusion about it. If by the end of his studies, the research concludes that his hypothesis is incorrect, he must change his hypothesis based on scientific truth.

Both B) and C) are the least likely answers because:

B) is an immature action to take, showing the scientists lack of control. Throwing away experiment notes is not the wisest move to take as these notes not only provide valuable information about the experiment but can actually prove to be important data, that if analysed well it could show the scientist his mistake/error, a new unobseved pattern or give him a new hypothesis or idea. Thus proving to be very valuable.

C) As a scientist, it is his right to be a very genuine about his work as he is given a credibility by science. Lie is one of the greatest sin to a scientist as it causes his credibility to collapse and even lose his title as a scientist.

Jessica wants to get a credit card, but the bank is refusing to give her one. What could be the possible reason behind the bank'
tangare [24]

Answer:

B. She has a bad credit history

Explanation:

One of the main requirements to get a credit card is to have a good credit score and this is one of the things that banks check. If someone that request a credit card has a bad credit history, the bank will refuse to give it. Because of that, the possible reason behind the bank's refusal to comply with Jessica's request is that she has a bad credit history.

The other options are not right because it is not necessary to have an account with the bank to get a credit card, a good credit history will allow you to get it, the age is not an issue and if someone doesn't have enough resources to get the card, it is possible to have a cosigner for the bank to approve it.
