A train covered a certain distance at a uniform speed. If the train would have been 6km/h faster, it would have taken 4 hours less than the scheduled time. And, if the train were slower by 6km/h, it would have taken 6 hours more than the scheduled time. Find the length of the journey.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:Let x km/hr be the speed of train

Let y be the time taken by the train

Distance = speed x time

= x y

To form the first equation let us consider the given information from the question that is If the train had been 6 km/hr faster,it would have taken 4 hours less than the scheduled time.

it clearly says that speed is increased by 6 and time is reduced by 4

So , (x + 6) (y - 4) = x y

x y - 4 x + 6 y - 24 = x y

x y - x y - 4 x + 6 y = 24

- 4 x + 6 y = 24

divided by (-2) => 2 x - 3 y = -12 ----- (1)

To form the second equation let us consider the given information from the question that is If the train were slower by 6km/hr, then it would have taken 6 hours more than the scheduled time.

it clearly says that speed is reduced by 6 and time is increased by 6

So , (x - 6) (y + 6) = x y

x y + 6 x - 6 y - 36 = x y

x y - x y + 6 x - 6 y = 36

6 x - 6 y = 36

divided by (6) => x - y = 6 ----- (2)

2 x - 3 y = -12

(2) x 2 => 2 x - 2 y = 12

(-) (+) (-)

---------------

- y = -24

y = 24

Now we have to apply the value of y in the first equation to get value of x

Substitute y = 24 in the first equation we get

2 x - 3 (24) = -12

2 x - 72 = -12

2 x = -12 + 72

2 x = 60

x = 60/2

x = 30

Speed of the train = 30 km/hr

Time taken by the train = 24 hours

Distance covered by the train = x y = 30 x 24 = 720 km

Verification:

2 x – 3 y = -12

2(30) - 3(24) = -12

60 - 72 = -12

-12 = -12

Musah stands at the centre of a rectangular field. He first takes 50 steps north, then 25 steps west and finally 50 steps on a bearing of 3150 . i. Sketch Musah's movement [Mark 4] ii. How far west is Musah's final point from the centre?

Answers

Answer:

Musah's final point from the centre = 60.355 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Musah stands at the centre of a rectangular field. He first takes 50 steps north, then 25 steps west and finally 50 steps on a bearing of 315°

The sketch for this information can be seen in the attached file below.

How far west is Musah's final point from the centre?

In order to determine how far west  is Musah's,

Let d be the distance of how far;

Then d = QR + RS cos θ

In the North West direction,

cos θ = cos 45°

d = 25 + 50( cos 45°)

d = 25 + 50( [tex]\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex] )

d = 25 + 50( 0.7071)

d =25 + 35.355

d = 60.355 steps

Musah's final point from the centre = 60.355 steps

What’s is the greatest common factor of 100x^2 - 250xy + 75x

Answers

Answer:

The greatest common factor of the expression is 25x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in giving the greatest common factor of the expression.

We can do this by factorization till we have no common factors left.

the expression is;

100x^2 -250xy + 75x

we start with the common factor x;

x(100x -250y + 75)

The next thing to do here is to find the greatest common factor of 100,250 and 75.

The greatest common factor here is 25.

Thus, we have;

25x(4x -10y + 3)

There is no more factor to get from the terms in the bracket. This simply means that the terms in the bracket are no longer factorizable

So the greatest common factor we have is 25x

If the initial amount of iodine-131 is 537 grams , how much is left after 10 days?

Answers

Answer:

225.78 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we would be using the formula

P(t) = Po × 2^t/n

Where P(t) = Remaining amount after r hours

Po = Initial amount

t = Time

In the question,

Where P(t) = Remaining amount after r hours = unknown

Po = Initial amount = 537

t = Time = 10 days

P(t) = 537 × 2^(10/)

P(t) = 225.78 grams

Therefore, the amount of iodine-131 left after 10 days = 225.78 grams

2. A boy and his father played 26 games of checkers. For every game the boy lost, he gave his father 5 cents. For every game the boy won, his father gave him 8 cents. When all the games were played, neither had won nor lost anything. The number of games the boy won i

Answers

Answer: the boy won 10 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call B as the number of games won by the boy, and F as the number of games won by the father.

We know that, there is a total of 26 games:

B + F = 26.

We know that in each game won by the boy, he wins 8 cents, for every game that the father wins, the boy losses 5 cents, and we know that at the end of the 26 games, the boy did not win or lose any money, so we have:

B*8 + F*(-5) = 0.

Then we have a system of equations:

B + F = 26

8*B - 5*F = 0.

The first step is isolating one of the variables. Let's start isolating F in the first equation:

B + F = 26

F = 26 - B.

Now we can replace this in the second equation:

8*B - 5*F = 0

8*B - 5*(26 - B) = 0

8*B + 5*B - 5*26 = 0

13*B = 5*26

B = 5*26/13 = 5*2 = 10

So the boy won 10 games (then the father won the other 16 games)

Answers

Answer:

a. [tex]\mathtt{P(X \geq 25) =0.0170}[/tex]     ( to four decimal places)

b. [tex]P(22.5<X<25) = 0.9043[/tex]   ( to four decimal places )

c. The limits will be between the interval of   ( 22.33,24.67 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

mean = 23.50

standard deviation = 5.00

sample size = 50

The objective is to calculate the following:

(a)  What is the likelihood the sample mean is at least $25.00?

Let X be the random variable, the probability that the sample mean is at least 25.00 is:

[tex]P(X \geq 25) = 1 - P(\dfrac{X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} < \dfrac{25- 23.50}{ \dfrac{5}{\sqrt{ 50}} })[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 25) = 1 - P(Z< \dfrac{1.5}{ \dfrac{5}{7.07107}} })[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 25) = 1 - P(Z< \dfrac{1.5 \times 7.071}{ {5}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 25) = 1 - P(Z< 2.1213)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 25) = 1 - P(Z< 2.12)[/tex]   to two decimal places

From the normal tables :

[tex]P(X \geq 25) = 1 - 0.9830[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{P(X \geq 25) =0.0170}[/tex]     ( to four decimal places)

(b) What is the likelihood the sample mean is greater than $22.50 but less than $25.00?

[tex]P(22.5<X<25) = P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} <\dfrac{25-23.5}{\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{50}}} ) - P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} <\dfrac{22.5-23.5}{\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{50}}} )[/tex]

[tex]P(22.5<X<25) = P(Z<\dfrac{1.5}{\dfrac{5}{7.071}} ) - P(Z<\dfrac{-1}{\dfrac{5}{7.071}} )[/tex]

[tex]P(22.5<X<25) = P(Z<2.12) - (Z<-1.41 )[/tex]

[tex]P(22.5<X<25) = (0.9830 ) - (0.0787)[/tex]

[tex]P(22.5<X<25) = 0.9043[/tex]  to four decimal places

(c) Within what limits will 90 percent of the sample means occur?

At 90 % confidence interval, level of significance = 1 - 0.90 = 0.10

The critical value for the [tex]z_{\alpha/2} = 0.05[/tex] = 1.65

Standard Error = [tex]\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Standard Error =  [tex]\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{50}}[/tex]

Standard Error = 0.7071

Therefore, at 90 percent of the sample means, the limits will be between the intervals of : [tex](\mu \pm z_{\alpha/2} \times S.E)[/tex]

Lower limit =  ( 23.5 - (1.65×0.707) )

Lower limit =  ( 23.5 - 1.16655 )

Lower limit = 22.33345

Lower limit = 22.33    (to two decimal places).

Upper Limit = ( 23.5 + (1.65*0.707) )

Upper Limit = ( 23.5 + 1.16655 )

Upper Limit = 24.66655

Upper Limit = 24.67

The limits will be between the interval of   ( 22.33,24.67 )

On the first day in each month, Enid deposited $4 into her bank account and Jim deposited $3 into his. They opened these accounts on May 15, 1990. On December 31, 1990, they each had $72 dollars in their account. How much did each person deposit on May 15?

Answers

Answer:

The amount of money in Enid bank account can be written as a linear equation.

Ye = Xe + $4*m

where Ye is the money that Enid has in her account, m is the number of months that have passed since she opened it, and Xe is the initial deposit.

For Jim, the equation is similar:

Yj = Xj + $3*m

where Yj and Xj are similar as above.

Between May 15 and December 31 of the same year, we have 7 months (where i am counting December because the deposit is made in the first day of the month).

Then we have that:

Ye = $72 = Xe + $4*7 = Xe + $28

Xe = $72 - $28 = $44

So in May 15, Enid deposited $44.

For Jim we have:

Yj = $72 = Xj + $3*7 = Xj + $21

Xj = $72 - $21 = $51

So in May 15, Jim deposited $51.
