2. Caveman Sampson chases a saber tooth tiger at an average speed of 3 miles per hour. The tiger runs at an average speed of 5 miles per hour, but rests for 2 hours after running for 2 hours. How long, in hours, will it take Sampson to catch the tiger if the tiger starts 2 miles in front of him and they start running at the same time?
A. 7 hours B. 6 hours C. 5 hours D. 4 hours​

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  D.  4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The tiger will run (5 mi/h)(2 h) = 10 mi in 2 hours. That will put it 2+10 = 12 miles from Sampson's starting location.

Samson can run 12 miles in time ...

  time = distance/speed = (12 mi)/(3 mi/h) = 4 h

Sampson will get to the tiger's location after 4 hours, just as the tiger is ending its rest period.

__

The graph shows the position of Sampson (red) and the tiger (blue) x hours after the chase starts. The distance (y miles) is measured from Sampson's starting point, assuming the tiger is running away.

The scores on a standardized test are normally distributed with a mean of 80 and standard
deviation of 5. What test score is 0.9 standard deviations above the mean?

Answers

Answer:

84.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean μ = 80

Standard deviation, σ = 5

Z = number of standard deviations from the mean, Z = 0.9

Teat score, x

Using the Zscore formula :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

Plugging in our values :

0.9 = (x - 80) / 5

Cross multiply

0.9 * 5 = x - 80

4.5 = x - 80

4.5 + 80 = x

x = 84.5

Test score = 84.5

Hari earns Rs 4300 per month. He spends 80% from his income. How much amount does he save in a year? ​

Answers

Answer:

Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Hari earns $ 4300 per month, and he spends 80% from his income, to determine how much amount does he save in a year, the following calculation must be performed:

100 - 80 = 20

4300 x 0.20 x 12 = X

860 x 12 = X

10320 = X

Therefore, Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.

Write the point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-2, 6) and (3,-2).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x+2)[/tex]

OR

[tex]y+2=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Point-slope form: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] where [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is a point and [tex]m[/tex] is the slope

1) Determine the slope

[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle y_2-y_1}{\displaystyle x_2-x_2}[/tex] where two given points are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the given points (-2, 6) and (3,-2):

[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle -2-6}{\displaystyle 3-(-2)}\\\\m=\frac{\displaystyle -8}{\displaystyle 3+2}\\\\m=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]. Plug this into [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]:

[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]

2) Plug in a point [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]

We're given two points, (-2, 6) and (3,-2), so there are two ways we can write this equation:

[tex]y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-(-2))\\\\y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x+2)[/tex]

OR

[tex]y-(-2)=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)\\y+2=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)[/tex]

The function f(x)=log4x is dilated to become g(x)=f(13x).

f(x) is compressed horizontally

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = \log(4x)[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = f(13x)[/tex]

Required

The effect on f(x)

[tex]g(x) = f(13x)[/tex] implies that f(x) is horizontally compressed by 13.

So, we have:

[tex]f(13) = \log(4 * 13x)[/tex]

[tex]f(13) = \log(52x)[/tex]

So:

Two sides of a triangle have the same length. The third side measures 5 m less than twice the common length. The perimeter of the triangle is 23 m. What are the lengths of the three sides?
What is the length of the two sides that have the same length?

Answers

Answer:

Length of all 3 sides: 7, 7, and 9

Length of the two sides that have the same length: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two sides with equal lengths have a length of [tex]x[/tex]. We can write the third side as [tex]2x-5[/tex].

The perimeter of a polygon is equal to the sum of all its sides. Since the perimeter of the triangle is 23 meters, we have the following equation:

[tex]x+x+2x-5=23[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]4x-5=23[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides:

[tex]4x=28[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4:

[tex]x=\frac{28}{4}=\boxed{7}[/tex]

Therefore, the three sides of the triangle are 7, 7, and 9 and the length of the two sides that have the same length is 7.

What is the true solution to the equation below? 2 lne^ln2x-lne^ln10x=ln30

Answers

It looks like the equation is

[tex]2\ln\left(e^{\ln(2x)}\right)-\ln\left(e^{\ln(10x)}\right) = \ln(30)[/tex]

Right away, we notice that any solution to this equation must be positive, so x > 0.

For any base b, we have [tex]b^{\log_b(a)}=a[/tex], so we can simplify this to

[tex]2\ln(2x)-\ln\left(10x\right) = \ln(30)[/tex]

Next, [tex]\ln(a^b)=b\ln(a)[/tex], so that

[tex]\ln(2x)^2-\ln\left(10x\right) = \ln(30)[/tex]

[tex]\ln\left(4x^2\right)-\ln\left(10x\right) = \ln(30)[/tex]

Next, [tex]\ln\left(\frac ab\right)=\ln(a)-\ln(b)[/tex], so that

[tex]\ln\left(\dfrac{4x^2}{10x}\right) = \ln(30)[/tex]

For x ≠ 0, we have [tex]\frac xx=1[/tex], so that

[tex]\ln\left(\dfrac{2x}5\right) = \ln(30)[/tex]

Take the antilogarithm of both sides:

[tex]e^{\ln\left((2x)/5\right)} = e^{\ln(30)}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2x}5 = 30[/tex]

Solve for x :

[tex]2x = 150[/tex]

One is given the following equation, and the problem asks one to identify the rational roots of the equation:

[tex]x^4-3x^2+6=0[/tex]

The rational root theorem states that the list of positive and negative factors of the constant term over the factors of the coefficients of the term to the highest degree will yield a list of the rational roots of the equation. Use this theorem to generate a list of all possible ration roots of the equation.

(4x+12) *8 = 15 * 32

Divide each side by 8

4x+12 = 60

Subtract 12 from each side

A market surveyor wishes to know how many energy drinks teenagers drink each week. They want to construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 1.1. The study found that for a sample of 1027 teenagers the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 5.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.327\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1027}} = 0.1[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.9 - 0.1 = 5.8 drinks per week.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.9 + 0.1 = 6 drinks per week.

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).
