first off, let's notice that Purple's time is in minutes, whilst the rate is in miles per hour, the units of both must correspond, so, we can either change the time from minutes to hours or the rate from hours to minutes, hmmm let's change the time to hours.

so 40 minutes, we know there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so 40 minutes will be 40/60 of an hr, or namely 2/3.

\qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}} ~\hspace{6em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{y=\cfrac{\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}}{x}~\hfill } \\\\ \textit{\underline{x} varies inversely with }\underline{z^5} ~\hspace{5.5em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{x=\cfrac{\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}}{z^5}~\hfill } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\stackrel{\begin{array}{llll} \textit{\tiny "t"ime varies}\\ \textit{\tiny inversely with "s"peed} \end{array}}{t = \cfrac{k}{s}}\qquad \textit{we know that} \begin{cases} t=\stackrel{minutes}{40}\to \stackrel{hrs}{\frac{2}{3}}\\ s=\stackrel{m/h}{9} \end{cases} \implies \cfrac{2}{3}~~ = ~~\cfrac{k}{9} \\\\\\ 18=3k\implies \cfrac{18}{3}=k\implies 6=k~\hfill \boxed{t=\cfrac{6}{s}} \\\\\\ \textit{when s = }\stackrel{m/h}{12}\textit{ what is "t"?}\qquad t=\cfrac{6}{12}\implies t=\cfrac{1}{2}

Determine whether each integral is convergent or divergent. If it is convergent evaluate it. (a) integral from 1^(infinity) e^(-
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

a) So, this integral is convergent.

b) So, this integral is divergent.

c) So, this integral is divergent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We calculate the next integrals:

a)

\int_1^{\infty} e^{-2x} dx=\left[-\frac{e^{-2x}}{2}\right]_1^{\infty}\\\\\int_1^{\infty} e^{-2x} dx=-\frac{e^{-\infty}}{2}+\frac{e^{-2}}{2}\\\\\int_1^{\infty} e^{-2x} dx=\frac{e^{-2}}{2}\\

So, this integral is convergent.

b)

\int_1^{2}\frac{dz}{(z-1)^2}=\left[-\frac{1}{z-1}\right]_1^2\\\\\int_1^{2}\frac{dz}{(z-1)^2}=-\frac{1}{1-1}+\frac{1}{2-1}\\\\\int_1^{2}\frac{dz}{(z-1)^2}=-\infty\\

So, this integral is divergent.

c)

\int_1^{\infty} \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}}=\left[2\sqrt{x}\right]_1^{\infty}\\\\\int_1^{\infty} \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}}=2\sqrt{\infty}-2\sqrt{1}\\\\\int_1^{\infty} \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}}=\infty\\

So, this integral is divergent.

Find the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when the standard deviation is LaTeX: \sigma= 50????=50 and LaTeX: n = 25
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The margin of error  for a 90% confidence interval is 16.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 25

Standard deviation = 50

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = \pm 1.64

Margin of error =

z_{critical}\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

1.64\times \dfrac{50}{\sqrt{25}} = 16.4

Thus, the margin of error  for a 90% confidence interval is 16.4

Solve the inequality. Show your work. |4r + 8| ≥ 32
S_A_V [24]

|4r + 8| ≥ 32

Split this expression into two expressions:

First ⇒ 4r + 8 ≥ 32 and second ⇒ 4r + 8 ≤ - 32

---

First expression: 4r + 8 ≥ 32

Subtract 8 from both sides.

4r ≥ 24

Divide both sides by 4.

r ≥ 6

---

Second expression: 4r + 8 ≤ - 32

Subtract 8 from both sides.

4r ≤ -40

Divide both sides by 4.

r ≤ -10

---

Your answer is \boxed {r \geq 6~or~ r \leq  -10}
