9 Two people start writing reports on the same day. Both write 200-page reports. Writer A averages 8 pages a day, and writer B averages 5 pages per day. How much sooner will Writer A finish her report than will Writer B?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15 days

+

Step-by-step explanation:

A

200 pages / (8 pages / day) =

= 200 pages days / 8 pages =

= 200 days / 8 = 25 days

B

200 pages / (5 pages / day) =

= 200 pages days / 5 pages =

= 200 days / 5 = 40 days

40-25 = 15 days

A will finish 15 days sooner than B.

Answer 2

A will finish her report 15 days sooner than B.

What is the ratio?

The ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed one divided by the other.

Writer A averages 8 pages a day,

Number of pages per day written by writer A = 8 per day

Writer A will finish her report = Total pages / per day written by writer A

⇒ 200 pages / (8 pages / day)

⇒ 200 pages days / 8 pages

⇒ 200 days / 8

⇒ 25 days

Writer B averages 5 pages a day

Number of pages per day written by writer B = 5 per day

Writer B will finish her report = Total pages / per day written by writer A

⇒ 200 pages / (5 pages / day)

⇒  200 pages days / 5 pages

⇒  200 days / 5

⇒  40 days

Difference between both of time when they finished their report = 40-25 = 15 days

Hence, A will finish her report 15 days sooner than B.

A box has three balls, one white and two red. We select one ball, put it back in the box, and select a second ball (sampling with replacement). Find the probability of the following events:

a. Let F= the event of getting the white ball twice.
b. Let G= the event of getting two balls of different colors.
c. Let H= the event of getting white on the first pick.
d. Are F and G mutually exclusive?
e. Are G and H mutually exclusive?

Answers

Answer:

See explaation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the balls with the first letters

[tex]W =1[/tex]

[tex]R =2[/tex]

Solving (a): P(F) --- White balls twice

The event of F is:

[tex]F = \{(W,W)\}[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(F) = P(W) * P(W)[/tex]

[tex]P(F) = \frac{n(W)}{n} * \frac{n(W)}{n}[/tex]

[tex]P(F) = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]P(F) = \frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Solving (b): P(G) --- two different colors

The event of G is:

[tex]G = \{(W,R),(R,W)\}[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(G) = P(W) * P(R) + P(R) * P(W)[/tex]

[tex]P(G) = \frac{n(W)}{n} * \frac{n(R)}{n} + \frac{n(R)}{n} * \frac{n(W)}{n}[/tex]

[tex]P(G) = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{3} * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]P(G) = \frac{2}{9} + \frac{2}{9}[/tex]

[tex]P(G) = \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

Solving (c): P(H) --- White picked first

The event of H is:

[tex]H = \{(W,R),(W,W)\}[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(H) = P(W) * P(R) + P(W) * P(W)[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{n(W)}{n} * \frac{n(R)}{n} + \frac{n(W)}{n} * \frac{n(W)}{n}[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3} * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{2}{9} + \frac{1}{9}[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{3}{9}[/tex]

[tex]P(H) = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Solving (d): F and G, mutually exclusive?

We have:

[tex]F = \{(W,W)\}[/tex]

[tex]G = \{(W,R),(R,W)\}[/tex]

Check for common elements

[tex]n(F\ n\ G) = 0[/tex]

Hence, F and G are mutually exclusive

Solving (e): G and G, mutually exclusive?

We have:

[tex]G = \{(W,R),(R,W)\}[/tex]

[tex]H = \{(W,R),(W,W)\}[/tex]

Check for common elements

[tex]n(G\ n\ H) = 1[/tex]

Hence, F and G are not mutually exclusive

Diana is going to roll a 6-sided die. What's the probability she will role a 4 or
a 5? *

Answers

The probability of rolling any one number on a 6 sided die is 1/6

The probability of rolling a 4 is 1/6

The probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6

The probability of rolling a 4 or a 5 is the probability of rolling a 4 plus the probability of rolling a 5:

1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3

The answer is 1/3

find the equation of straight line passing through each of the following pairs of points
a) (2,4) and (7,2)​

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line is [tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{24}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Slope:

Having two points, the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x. Points (2,4) and (7,2)​, so:

Change in y: 2 - 4 = -2

Change in x: 7 - 2 = 5

Slope: [tex]m = \frac{-2}{5} = -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + b[/tex]

(2,4)

This means that when [tex]x = 2, y = 4[/tex]. So

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + b[/tex]

[tex]4 = -\frac{2}{5}(2) + b[/tex]

[tex]b = 4 + \frac{4}{5} = \frac{20}{5} + \frac{4}{5} = \frac{24}{5}[/tex]

The equation of the line is [tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{24}{5}[/tex]

The interarrival time of nuclear particles in a Monte Carlo simulation of a reaction is designed to have a uniform distribution over an interval from 0 to 0.5 milliseconds. Determine the probability that the interarrival time between two particles will be:

Answers

Answer:

Incomplete question, but you can use the formulas given to solve it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform probability distribution:

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value above x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}[/tex]

Uniform distribution over an interval from 0 to 0.5 milliseconds

This means that [tex]a = 0, b = 0.5[/tex]

Determine the probability that the interarrival time between two particles will be:

Considering [tex]a = 0, b = 0.5[/tex], and the question asked, you choose one of the three formulas above.

=(1/2)x2 + (6/11)x + 8 + (5/9)x2 + (2/3) +(1/3)x2 + 4x +(4/3) (Given in the question)

=(25/18)x2 + (50/11)x + 10 (Adding terms corresponding to x2,x ,constant respectively)

Difference in chocolate and strawberry bars =[ (1/2)x2 + (6/11)x + 8] - [(1/3)x2 + 4x +(4/3)]

= (1/6)x2 - (38/11)x +(20/3)

Answers

Answer: hello your question lacks some information attached below is the complete question

answer :

a) attached below

b) 65 students aged 1-2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

For a Leslie matrix ; there is a relation

Pn = L^n Po  where ; Pn = population vector after n years , Po = initial population vector .

a) Initial population vector

attached below

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1100\\2400\\3200\end{array}\right][/tex]

b) Number of birds aged 1-2 years are available after 10 years

i.e. P10 = L^10 Po

note : Po = Xo

∴ P10 = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&2&1\\0.2&0&0\\0&0.4&0\end{array}\right][/tex]   [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1100\\2400\\3200\end{array}\right][/tex]

we will apply  MATLAB to resolve the above matrix

P10  = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}217.91\\65.24\\31.911\end{array}\right][/tex]

∴ Number of children between 1-2 years left after 10 years  = 65.24 ≈ 65

The total number of birds aged between 1-2 years which are available after 10 years is 65 and this can be determined by using the Leslie matrix relation.

Given :

Consider a species of bird that can be split into three age groupings: those aged 0-1 years, those aged 1-2 years, and those aged 2-3 years. [tex]\rm L = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&2&1\\0.2&0&0\\0&0.4&0\end{array}\right][/tex]

According to the given data, the initial population vector is given by:

[tex]x_0 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1100\\2400\\3200\end{array}\right][/tex]

Now, the total number of birds aged between 1-2 years which are available after 10 years is:

[tex]\rm P_{10} = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&2&1\\0.2&0&0\\0&0.4&0\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1100\\2400\\3200\end{array}\right][/tex]

Now, solve the above matrices in order to determine the value of [tex]\rm P_{10}[/tex].

[tex]\rm P_{10} = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}217.91\\65.24\\31.911\end{array}\right][/tex]

Therefore, the total number of birds aged between 1-2 years which are available after 10 years is 65.

A crew clears brush from 1/3 acre of land in 2 days. How long will it take the same crew to clear the entire plot of 2 1/ 2 acres?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Time taken to clear 1/3 acre = 2 days

This means that, they will be able to clear ;

1/3 ÷ 2 = 1/3 * 2 /1 = 1/6 acre in one day

1/6 acres per day :

Hence, the number of days it will take to clear 2 1/2 acres will be :

2 1/2 acres ÷ 1/6

5 / 2 ÷ 1/ 6

5/2 * 6 /1 = (5*6) / (2*1) = 30/2 = 15

Hence, it will take 15 days to clear 2 1/2 acres
