Suppose a river flows south to north at a velocity of 1 m/s, and a motorboat traverses the river from east to west at a speed of 2.5 m/s. At what angle should the boat be oriented south, relative to the westward direction, such that the boat will be traveling due west? Round to the nearest degree.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex]24^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

River is flowing from south to North with a velocity of [tex]u=1\ m/s[/tex]

Motor boat traverses the river from east to west at a speed of [tex]v=2.5\ m/s[/tex]

South component of boat velocity must compensate the river velocity in order to travel in west direction.

[tex]\therefore v\sin \theta=u\\\\\Rightarrow 2.5\sin \theta=1\\\\\Rightarrow \sin \theta=\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow \theta=23.57^{\circ}\approx 24^{\circ} \text{south of west}[/tex]

Manuel y Sara recorren cierta distancia, y los tiempos que emplean están en la razón 21 / 15 . La velocidad de Manuel es de 56km/h. ¿Cuál es la velocidad de Sara?

Answers

Answer:

The speed of Sara is 78.4 km/h.

Step- by-step explanation:

Manuel and Sara travel a certain distance, and the times they use are in the ratio 21/15. Manuel's speed is 56km / h. What is Sara's speed?

Let the distance is d.

speed of Manuel = 56 km/h

time taken by Manuel = 21 t

time taken by Sara =  15 t

Let the speed of Sara is v.

Distance = speed x time

For Manuel:

d = 56 x 21 t ..... (1)

For Sara:

d = v x 15 t ..... (2)

From (1) and (2)

56 x 21 t = v x 15 t

v = 78.4 km/h

Perpendicular lines
intersecting, but not perpendicular lines

Answers

Answer:

The same lines (answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations can be written in slope-intercept form y = mx + c (where 'm' is slope and 'c' is the y-intecept) as,

y-3 = 2(x-3) .......(1)        ;   y + 5 = 2(x+1) ...........(2)    

y = 2x - 6 + 3                ;  y = 2x + 2 - 5    

y = 2x -3                       ;  y = 2x - 3

Comparing with slope intercept form we have,

m1 = 2                           ; m2 = 2

c1 = -3                           ; c2 = -3

If the slopes are equal the lines are parallel and since y-intercepts are also equal means they are the same lines (overlapping)

A jar is filled with 74 different colored marbles, 10 of which are red, 38 of which are blue, and 26 of which are green. A player is asked to draw a single marble from the jar and if they draw a red marble they will win $20, if they draw a blue marble they will lose $10, and if they draw a green marble they will lose $5. You may round your answer to the nearest cent

Answers

Solution :

Colored marble            Prize

     Red ----  10               20

    Blue --- 38                 10

   Green --- 26               5

P(red)  =  10/74  =  5/37

P(blue)  =  38/74  =  19/37

P( green)  = 26/74  =  13/37

Therefore,

 X      →     Red          Blue      Green

P(X)           5/37        19/37      13/37

The expected values are :

[tex]$20 \times \frac{5}{37} - 10 \times \frac{19}{37} - 5 \times \frac{13}{37}[/tex]

= -4.189

find the coordinates of the points which divide the join X(-1,7) and Y(4,-3) in the ratio of 7:2.​

Answers

Answer:

(26/9 , -7/9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

let the points be

X(-1,7) = (x1, y1)

Y(4,-3) = (x2,y2)

and let the ratio be...

m:n = 7:2

and.. let the point that divides the line be

P(x,y)

now using the section formula for internal division..

P(x,y) = ( m.x2 + nx.1 / m+ n , my2+ny2/m+n )

= ( 7.4+2.-1 / 7+2 , 7.-3 + 2.7/7+2 )

Which of the following accurately describes the median of a set of data? Multiple choice question. The midpoint of the data when it is arranged in order. The difference in the largest and smallest values. The most numerous observation in a set of data. The arithmetic average of the values in the set.

Answers

Answer:

The midpoint of the data when it is arranged in order.

Step-by-step explanation:

Median can be described as the number that occurs in the middle of a set of numbers that are arranged either in ascending or descending order

For example, the median of the following set of numbers is 5

1, 2, 5, 10, 20

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values of a set of observations

Range = highest value - lowest value

Mean is the average of a set of numbers. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number

Mean = sum of the numbers / total number

What sum of money amount to Rs 6000 in two years at the rate of 10% per annum find it​

Answers

Answer: Rs 5000 sum of money amount to Rs 6000 in two years at the rate of 10% per annum.​

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount = Rs 6000

T = 2 year

R = 10%

So

I = A-P

so

I = PTR/100

or, A-P = (P*2*10)/100

or, 6000-P = 20P/100

or, 600000-100P = 20P

or, 600000 = 120P

or, P = 600000/120

so, P = Rs 5000

Find the sum that amounts to Rs 9,144 in 3 years at 9% per year simple interest.​

Answers

Given:

Amount = Rs. 9,144

Time = 3 years.

Rate of simple interest = 9%

To find:

The principal value.

Solution:

The formula for simple interest is:

[tex]I=\dfrac{P\times r\times t}{100}[/tex]

Where, P is principal, r is the simple rate of interest, and t is the number of years.

Putting [tex]r=9,t=3[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]I=\dfrac{P\times 9\times 3}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I=\dfrac{27P}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I=0.27P[/tex]

We know that,

[tex]\text{Amount}=\text{Principal + Interest}[/tex]

[tex]9144=P+0.27P[/tex]

[tex]9144=1.27P[/tex]

Divide both sides by 1.27, we get

[tex]\dfrac{9144}{1.27}=P[/tex]

[tex]7200=P[/tex]

Therefore, the principal value is Rs. 7200.
