Two trucks leave a warehouse at the same time, traveling in opposite directions. The rate of the faster truck exceeds that of the slower truck by 2 miles per hour. After 5 hours, they are 315 miles apart. What are the rates of the trucks?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the slower truck travels x miles in 5 hours.

the faster truck travels x + 5×2 = x + 10 miles in 5 hours.

so,

x + x + 10 = 315 miles

2x = 305 miles

x = 152.5 miles (in 5 hours)

therefore, the slower truck's speed was 30.5 mph.

the faster truck's speed was 30.5 + 2 = 32.5 mph.

P(x >= 13) = P( z > (13 - 14)/1) = P(z > -1) = 1 - P(z < -1) = 1 - 0.1587 = 0.8413

Find the square root of 1764 by factorisation method

Answers

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

prime factorisation of 1764 = 2^2 × 3^2 × 7^2

hence,

√1764 = √(2^2 × 3^2 × 7^2) =2 x 3 x 7 = 42

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

1764 = 2 * 882

        = 2 * 2 * 441

        = 2 * 2 *  3 * 147

        = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 49

        = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 7 * 7

[tex]\sqrt{1764} = \sqrt{2*2*3*3*7*7} = 2*3*7 = 42[/tex]

The triangle below is equilateral. Find the length of side x in simplest radical form
with a rational denominator.
12

Answers

Answer:

4sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle is equilateral, the hypotenuse is 2x

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

x^2 + 12^2 = (2x)^2

x^2 + 144 = 4x^2

144 = 4x^2 -x^2

144 = 3x^2

48 = x^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(48) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(16*3) = x

Another of Bhaskara's problems results in a quadratic equation Parthava was enraged and seized a certain number of arrows to slay Karna. He expended one-half of them in defending himself. Four times the square root of the number of arrows were discharged against the horses. With six more, he transfixed Shalya, the charioteer. With three more, he rent the parasol, the standard, and the bow; and with the last one he pierced the head of Karna. How many arrows did Parthava have?

Answers

Answer:

Parthava had 100 arrows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define N as the number of arrows that Parthava originally has.

He uses one-half of them in defending himself, so he used N/2 arrows

Now he uses four times the square root of the number of arrows, so now he uses:

4*√N

Then he uses 6

Then he uses 3

Then he uses the last one.

If we add all these numbers of arrows that he used, we should get the initial number of arrows that he used, then:

N/2 + 4*√N  + 6 + 3 + 1  = N

Now we have an equation that we can try to solve.

First, let's move all the terms to the same side:

N/2 + 4*√N + 6 + 3 + 1 - N  = 0

now we can simpify it:

(N/2 - N) + 4*√N + (6 + 3 + 1) = 0

-(1/2)*N + 4*√N + 10 = 0

Now we can define a new variable x = √N

Then we have: x^2 = N

now we can replace these new variables in our equation to get:

-(1/2)*x^2 + 4*x + 10 = 0

Now we just have a quadratic equation.

Remember that for a quadratic equation of the form:

0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c

The solutions were given by:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2a}[/tex]

Then in our case, the solutions will be:

[tex]x = \frac{-4 \pm \sqrt{4^2 - 4*(-1/2)*10} }{2*(-1/2)} = \frac{-4 \pm 6 }{-1} = 4 \pm 6[/tex]

So there are two solutions:

x = 4 + 6 = 10

x = 4 - 6 = -2

And remember that x = √N

Then x should be positive, then we take x = 10 as our solution here.

then we can use the equation:

x = 10 = √N

then

10^2 = √N^2 = N

10^2 = 100 = N

Parthava had 100 arrows.

A rancher’s herd of 250 sheep grazes over a 40-acre pasture. He would like to find out how many sheep are grazing on each acre of the pasture at any given time, so he has some images of the pasture taken by the state department of agriculture’s aerial photography division. Here are three samples of the images.

Sample 1 : 4
Sample 2 : 1
Sample 3 : 9

What margin of error is reasonable for these samples?

Answers

Answer:

Sample 1 MOE = 37.24%

Sample 2 MOE = 29.4%

Sample 3 MOE = None

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that 250 sheep grazes over a 40-acre pasture.

Thus, number of sheeps per acre = 250/40 = 6.25 ≈ 6

Thus, n = 6

For the samples given, we can find sample proportions as;

Sample 1: p_o = 4/6 = 0.67

Sample 2: p_o = 1/6 = 0.17

Sample 3: p_o = 9/6 = 1.5

Formula for test statistic here is;

z = √(p_o(1 - p_o)/n)

For sample 1;

z = √(0.67(1 - 0.67)/6)

z ≈ 0.19

For sample 2;

z = √(0.17(1 - 0.17)/6)

z ≈ 0.15

For sample 3;

z = √(1.5(1 - 1.5)/6)

z = √−0.125

We are not given confidence level but we will use 95%.

Value of z_α at 95% Confidence level is 1.96. Thus, we can find the margin of error for the samples;

For sample 1;

Margin of error at z = 0.19 is;

1.96 × 0.19 = 0.3724 = 37.24%

For sample 2;

Margin of error at z = 0.15 is;

1.96 × 0.15 = 0.294 = 29.4%

For sample 3;

Since test statistic has a negative square root, then it has no margin of error.
