Two canoes travel down a river, starting at 10:00. One canoe travels twice as fast as the other. After 3.5 hr, the canoes are 5.25 mi apart. Find the average
rate of each canoe.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The time for each canoe is 3.5 hours

The total distance traveled by the first canoe is not known. Nor is the distance for the second canoe. We do know that the difference is 5.25 miles.

So let the rate of the slower canoe = x

Let the rate for the second canoe = 2x

The first canoe goes a distance of 2*x * 3.5 = 7x

The second canoe goes a distance of 3.5x

The difference = 7x - 3.5x = 5.25

3.5x = 5.25                                       divide by 3.5

x = 5.25/3.5

x = 1.5 which is the rate of the slower canoe

2x = 3  which is the rate of the faster canoe

f(x)=-4x+1 Find the average rate of change from 2 to 5.

Answers

Answer:

- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is the average rate of change of f(x)

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

f(x) = - 4x + 1 ← is in slope- intercept form

with m = - 4 ← average rate of change

Which number rounds to 4.3 when rounded to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Answer:

it is the same 4.3

Step-by-step explanation:

this numbers didn't add one number when you round(0,1,2.3.4)

this numbers(5,6,7,8,9), you add one number when you add

4.3 (the three is the tenth)and no number after it so its stell the same

The rounding number of 4.3 when rounded to the nearest tenth is 4.3

Here,

The number is 4.3

We have to find the rounding number of 4.3 nearest tenth.

What is Rounding number?

A method of approximating a number to its nearest place value is called Rounding of Numbers.

Now,

The number is 4.3

To round the decimal number to its nearest tenth, look at the hundredth place.

But here is no any number on hundredth number, hence no change occur for rounding 4.3 to the nearest tenth.

So, The rounding number of 4.3 when rounded to the nearest tenth is same as the number 4.3

You know that there is a strong correlation between the consumption of ice cream and body weight. The Pearson's r = 0.78. You also know that the average consumption of ice cream per week is five grams with a standard deviation of 1.5 grams. The average weight is 65 kg with a standard deviation of 15 kg. What is the formula of the regression line?

Answers

Answer:

y = 7.8x + 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Pearson's r = 0.78

Average consumption of ice cream = 5 grams per week (m) with Standard deviation (sd) = 1.5 grams

Average weight = 65 kg with standard deviation of 15kg

Formular for the regression line :

General regression formula :

y = mx + c

y = predicted variable ; m = slope or gradient ; x = predictor variable ; c = intercept

Gradient (m) = change in y / change in x

m = (sd y / sd x) * r

m = (sd weight / sd ice cream) × r

m = (15 / 1.5) × r

m = 10 × 0.78 = 7.8

Intercept:

mean of weight(y) - [Slope×mean of icecream(x)]

65 - [7.8 × 5]

65 - 39 = 26

Hence,

y = 7.8x + 26

Dan is 5 years older than David. Bridget is 8 years younger than David. If the total of their ages is 57, how old is the eldest of them

Answers

Answer:

The oldest person is 25 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent David's age by d.

Then Dan's age is d + 5, and Bridget's is d - 8.

The sum of these three ages is 57:

d + (d + 5) + (d - 8) = 57

This simplifies to

3d - 3 = 57, or 3d = 60.  Then d must be 20.

David is 20, Dan is 25 (5 years older than David), and Bridget is 12 (8 years younger than David).

Check:  Do these three ages add up to 57?

20 + 25 + 12 = 57   YES\

The oldest person is 25 years old.  That's Dan's age.

= 1450

an example of a set of five different numbers whose mean is 290

= 200,300,290,320,340

Step-by-step explanation:

630,379,982

The 3 above that is bold, between the 0 and the 7, is in the hundred thousands place.

To round to a place, change all digits to the right of that place to zero. If the digit immediately to the right is 0 through 4, you're done. If the digit immediately to the right is from 5 to 9, then you raise the digit you are rounding to by 1.

Step 1. Make all digits to the right of the hundred thousands digit 0.

630,300,000

Step 2. Since the digit immediately to the right of the hundred thousands digit was a 7, which is from 5 to 9, the digit we are rounding to goes up by 1. The 3 becomes 4.

Jen classifies the number 4.567 as an irrational number because it does not repeat. Is Jen correct? Explain.

Answers

Answer: Jen is wrong about her classification.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we know that the definition of an irrational number is that they are numbers that cannot be represented by a simple fraction and that they are never repeating decimals and they never end.

So, considering this, Jen is wrong because, yes it does not repeat but it DOES END unless it is not written in this problem that it continues on irrationally like pi. Hence, this number is not irrational.

The Jen classifies the number 4.567 as an irrational number is false.

It is required to find the number is rational and irrational numbers.

What is real number?

Real numbers are numbers that include both rational and irrational numbers. Rational numbers such as integers (-2, 0, 1), fractions(1/2, 2.5) and irrational numbers such as √3, π(22/7), etc., are all real numbers.

Given :

Jen's argument

We have

4.567 as an irrational number

The above claim is false because

4.567 =

4567/1000

When we divide the above number in the form of p/q  and q≠0 then then number is rational number.

Therefore, the Jen classifies the number 4.567 as an irrational number is false.
