A motorboat can maintain a constant speed of 13 miles per hour relative to the water. The boat makes a trip upstream to a certain point in 63 ​minutes; the return trip takes 15 minutes. What is the speed of the​ current?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  8 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed in each direction is the speed of the boat with the speed of the current appropriately added. If x is the speed of the current, the upstream speed is 13-x; the downstream speed is 13+x.

The ratio of times is inversely proportional to the ratio of speeds, so we ahve ...

  15/63 = 5/21 = (13-x)/(13+x)

  5(13 +x) = 21(13 -x) . . . . . . . cross multiply

  26x = 13(21 -5) = 13·16

  x = 13·16/26 = 16/2 = 8

The speed of the current is 8 miles per hour.

Every product manufactured by a company goes through 6 different tests before being shipped out. It is known that the probability that a product passes any single test is 0.9 and the tests are independent. Only those products that pass the first three tests and also pass at least one of the three remaining tests are shipped out. Find the probability that a manufactured product is shipped out.

Answers

Answer:

The Probability that the product is shipped out is 0.7283

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are given that, a product passes through 6 tests before it is shipped out and a product is shipped out only if it passes all the first 3 tests and at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests.

We have P(pass)= 0.9, is the Probability of passing any test.

Which implies, P(fail)= 1- 0.9= 0.1

We have to find the Probability that the product is shipped out.

P(product is shipped out) = P(it passes first 3 tests )*P(passes at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests) •••••••••••(i)

We can take the product as the tests are Independent.

Now, let us obtain

P(it passes first 3 tests ) = P(pass)*P(pass)*P(pass)

=P(pass)]^3 = (0.9)^3 = 0.729

Hence, P( it passes first 3 tests)= 0.729 •••••••(ii)

Now,

P(passes at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests)

= 1-P(fails all the 3 remaining tests)

= 1-(0.1)^3 = 1 - 0.001 = 0.999

Hence,

P(passes atleast 1 of the remaining 3 tests)=0.999 ••••••••(iii)

Now, substituting the 2nd and 3rd equations in the first equation, we have;

P(product is shipped out) = P(it passes first 3 tests )*P(passes at least 1 of the remaining 3 tests)

= (0.729)*(0.999)

= 0.728271

= 0.7283

Use Newton's method with initial approximation x1 = 1 to find x2, the second approximation to the root of the equation x4 − x − 3 = 0. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) x2 =?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x_{2} = 0.0000[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Newton's method is:

[tex]x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{f(x_{i})}{f'(x_{i})}[/tex]

Where [tex]f' (x_{i})[/tex] is the first derivative of the function evaluated in [tex]x_{i}[/tex].

[tex]x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{x_{i}^{4}-x_{i}-3}{4\cdot x_{i}^{3}-1}[/tex]

Lastly, the value of [tex]x_{2}[/tex] is determined by replacing [tex]x_{1}[/tex] with its numerical value:

[tex]x_{2} = x_{1} + \frac{x_{1}^{4}-x_{1}-3}{4\cdot x_{1}^{3}-1}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = 1.0000 + \frac{1.0000^{4}-1.0000-3}{4\cdot (1.0000)^{3}-1}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = 0.0000[/tex]

Belinda wants to show these result in a frequency table.
She will use 4 equal groups.
The first group will start with 1 hour and the last group will end with 20 hours.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she will use 4 groups or class intervals, the the class width would be 20/4 = 5 hours

The class groups would be

1 to 5

5 to 10

10 to 15

15 to 20

The class mark for each class is the average of the minimum and maximum value of each class. Therefore, the class marks are

(1 + 5)/2 = 3

(5 + 10)/2 = 7.5

(10 + 15)/2 = 12.5

(15 + 20)/2 = 17.5

The frequency table would be

Class group Frequency

1 - 5 4

5 - 10 8

10 - 15 6

15 - 20 2

The total frequency is 4 + 8 + 6 + 2 = 20

Find lim x→3 sqrt 2x+3-sqrt 3x/ x^2-3x. you must show your work or explain your work in words plsss I need help

Answers

I'm assuming the limit is supposed to be

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{\sqrt{2x+3}-\sqrt{3x}}{x^2-3x}[/tex]

Multiply the numerator by its conjugate, and do the same with the denominator:

[tex]\left(\sqrt{2x+3}-\sqrt{3x}\right)\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)=\left(\sqrt{2x+3}\right)^2-\left(\sqrt{3x}\right)^2=-(x-3)[/tex]

so that in the limit, we have

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{-(x-3)}{(x^2-3x)\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)}[/tex]

Factorize the first term in the denominator as

[tex]x^2-3x=x(x-3)[/tex]

The [tex]x-3[/tex] terms cancel, leaving you with

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{-1}{x\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)}[/tex]

and the limand is continuous at [tex]x=3[/tex], so we can substitute it to find the limit has a value of -1/18.

Consider a manufacturing process with a quality inspection station. In the past, 10% of parts are defective. As soon as one defective part is found, the process is stopped. If 6 parts have been inspected without finding a defective part, what is the probability that at least 9 total parts will be inspected before the process is stopped

Answers

Answer:

0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

10% is equal to 0.1

The probability of having defective parts in a pile of parts is 0.1

Before the process is stopped, 1 part has to be defective.

In a pile of 9 parts, the probability that a part is defective 0.1 of 9, which is = 0.9 hence, approximately one (1) part will be defective in a pile of 9 parts and the process will be stopped.

Since there was no defective part among the first 6 parts, P(d) was 0

That is, probability of a defective part was zero.

SSS is for side-side-side

Both triangles have all three sides given, so the SSS similarity theorem is one way to prove these triangles are similar.

SAS is for side-angle-side

Both triangles have one angle measurement given, and two side lengths given, therefore we can also use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the two triangles are similar.  

Since both SSS and SAS work to prove the triangles are similar, the correct answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS

An English teacher needs to pick 10 books to put on her reading list for the next school year, and she needs to plan the order in which they should be read. She has narrowed down her choices to 4 novels, 6 plays, 8 poetry books, and 4 nonfiction books. Step 1 of 2 : If she wants to include no more than 3 poetry books, how many different reading schedules are possible? Express your answer in scientific notation rounding to the hundredths place.

Answers

Answer:

the number of possible reading schedules is 1.064301638 × 10¹²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The English teacher needs to pick 10 books to put on her reading list for the next school year.

If the English teacher picks at most  3 poetry books i.e no  more than 3 poetry books from 8 books. and other books are picked from (6+4+4 ) = 14 books

Thus; the number of ways to pick the books are :

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{c}8\\0\\ \end{array}\right] \ \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\10\\ \end{array}\right]+ \left[\begin{array}{c}8\\1\\ \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\9\\ \end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{c}8\\2\\ \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\8\\ \end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{c}8\\3\\ \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}14\\7 \\ \end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]= [ \dfrac{8!}{0!(8-0)!}* \dfrac{14!}{10!(14-10!)} ] + [ \dfrac{8!}{1!(8-1)!}* \dfrac{14!}{9!(14-9)!}]+ [ \dfrac{8!}{2!(8-2)!}* \dfrac{14!}{8!(14-8)!}] + [ \dfrac{8!}{3!(8-3)!}* \dfrac{14!}{7!(14-7)!}][/tex]

[tex]= [ 1*1001]+[8*2002]+[28*3003]+[56*3432][/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{= 293293}[/tex]

However, to determine how many reading schedules that are possible we use the relation:

Number of ways to pick a book × [tex]^{10}P_{10}[/tex]

[tex]= 293293* \dfrac{10!}{(10-10)!}[/tex]

= 293293 ×  10!

= 1.064301638 × 10¹²

Thus , the number of possible reading schedules is 1.064301638 × 10¹²

Could someone please help me with the steps for this problem? Factor by grouping: w²+3w+w+3

Answers

Answer:

Please see steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to factor by grouping, we divide the four terms given into two groups, and extract on each group any common factor  we can.

In our example, we can select the terms: [tex]w^2[/tex]  and [tex]w[/tex] as one of our groups, and [tex]3w[/tex] and 3 in the other group. Then we re-organize the expression as:

[tex](w^2+w)+(3x+3)[/tex]

Now we extract from the first binomial group, the factor [tex]w[/tex] as a common factor of both terms, and from the second group we extract the factor "3" as common factor of those two terms:

[tex](w^2+w)+(3x+3)\\w(w+1)+3(w+1)[/tex]

We notice now that after the extraction, we are left with two exactly equal binomial factors [tex](w+1)[/tex] that appeared in the first group and in the second group. We proceed then to extract it as common factor for the two groups:

[tex]w(w+1)+3(w+1)\\(w+1)(w+3)[/tex]

this last product of two binomials ([tex](w+1)\,(w+3)[/tex] is the result of factoring the original expression.
