a boat travels upstream for 108 miles in 4 hours, and returns in 3 hours traveling downstream in a river. What is the rate of the boat in still water, and what is the rate in the current?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Rate in still water = 27 mph

Rate in the current =36 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate is the speed the boat use to travel in the water

The distance travelled upstream = 108 miles

The time taken to travel upstream = 4 hours

The rate in still water /upstream = 108/4 = 27 mph

The rate in the current /downstream = 108/3 =36 mph

An individual who has automobile insurance from a certain company is randomly selected. Let Y be the number of moving violations for which the individual was cited during the last 3 years. The pmf of Y is y 0 1 2 3 4 p(y) 0.50 0.20 0.15 0.10 0.05 Suppose an individual with Y violations incurs a surcharge of 100Y 2 . Calculate the expected amount of the surcharge

Answers

Answer:

1) The expected value of the number of moving violations for which the individual was cited during the last 3 years is 1

2) The expected amount of surcharges is $250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Y      0           1       2        3         4

p(y) 0.50   0.20   0.15   0.10   0.05

1)

Value of E(Y)

E(Y) = (0×0.50) + ( 1×0.20) + ( 2×0.15) + (3×0.10) + (4×0.05)

= 0 + 0.20 + 0.3 + 0.3 + 0.2

E(Y) = 1

Therefore, The expected value of the number of moving violations for which the individual was cited during the last 3 years is 1

b)

Suppose an individual with Y violations incurs a surcharge of $100Y² , the expected amount of the surcharge is given by,

E($100Y²) = 100E(Y)²

= 100∑Y²P(y)

= 100(0²×0.50) + ( 1²×0.20) + ( 2²×0.15) + (3²×0.10) + (4²×0.05)

= 100( 0 + 0.2 + 0.6 + 0.9 + 0.8 )

= 100(2.5)

= $250

Therefore; The expected amount of surcharges is $250

What interest is needed to earn $137.50 on a deposit of $500 for five years if it earns simple interest?

Answers

Answer:

5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Simple interest =  $137.50

Principal= $500

time = 5 years

We want to find the rate  R

Simple interest= PRT/100

137.50 = 500*R*5/100

137.50=2500R/100

cross multiply

137.5*100= 2500R

13750= 2500R

divide both sides by 2500

R= 13750/2500

R=5.5%

Hence the rate is 5.5%

Tara has a plastic string that is 3 3/4 feet long. She will cut the string to make bracelets that are each 5/8 foot long. Explain how to use the number line to determine the maxium number of braceletss tara can make

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the length of the plastic string is 3 3/4 feet = 15 / 4 feet.

Bracelets of 5/8 foot long is needed to be made. To determine the maximum number of bracelets that can be made; using the number line, 5/8 is subtracted repeated times from 15/4.

We can see that when 5/8 is subtracted 6 times from 15/4, the result is 0.

15/4 ÷ 5/8 = 6

Hence Tara can make 6 bracelets from the plastic sting.

Find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region bounded by the lines and curves about the x-axis. y = x, y =1, x = 0

Answers

Answer:

The volume is: [tex]V = \frac{\pi}{3}[/tex] cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a solid:

The volume of a solid, given by the function f(x), over an interval between a and b, is given by:

[tex]V = \pi \int_{a}^{b} (f(x))^2 dx[/tex]

y = x, y =1, x = 0

This means that the upper function is y = 1, and the lower function is y = x. So

[tex]f(x) = (1 - x)[/tex]

The lower limit of integration is x = 0.

The upper limit is y = x when y = 1, so x = 1.

Then

[tex]V = \pi \int_{a}^{b} (f(x))^2 dx[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi \int_{0}^{1} (1-x)^2 dx[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi \int_{0}^{1} (1-2x+x^2) dx[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi (x-x^2+\frac{x^3}{3})|_{0}^{1} dx[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi(1 - (1^2) + \frac{1^3}{3})[/tex]

[tex]V = \frac{\pi}{3}[/tex]

Volume of the cylinder = 602.88 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Radius of cylinder = 4 cm

Height of cylinder = 12 cm

Volume of a cylinder is given by the following formula;

Volume = πr²h

Putting π = 3.14, r = 4 and h = 12 in the formula

Volume = 3.14 * (4)² * 12

Volume = 3.14 * 16 * 12

Volume = 602.88 square centimeters

Hence,

Volume of the cylinder = 602.88 square centimeters

The required measure of the radius inscribed in the triangle RST is 11.

What is the triangle?

The triangle is a geometric shape that includes 3 sides and the sum of the interior angle should not be greater than 180°

Here,
The incenter of the triangle will be the center of the circle inscribed in the triangle. and radius will be the perpendicular distance from the incenter to the sides.
So,
XU = XW,
-2y + 15 = 3y +5
5y = 10
y = 2

Now,
Radius = XU
          = -2(2) + 15
          = 11

Thus, the required measure of the radius inscribed in the triangle RST is 11.

As a salesperson for an electronic parts distributor, you are given two options for your salary structure. The first option has a base salary of $300 a week plus 4% of all sales made. The second option has a base salary of $100 plus 7.5% commission on all sales. Find the sales amount that will result in the two options having the same weekly salary.

Answers

Answer:

The amount of sale is approximately 5714.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the sales made that will result to the same salary and let y be the same weekly salary.

We can represent both salaries as follows:

300 + 0.04x = y

100 + 0.075x = y

Subtracting the second equation from the first, we have:

200 – 0.035x = 0

0.035x= 200

x = 200/0.035

x ≈ 5714.

Therefore, the amount of sale is approximately 5714.

Answer:

Dave’s commission be for the month for sales worth $7000 is $900.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a value per hundredth. Percentages can be converted into decimals and fractions by dividing the percentage value by a hundred.

Given, Dave receives 10% commission on his first $5000 and receives 20% commission on any sales beyond the first $5000.

He made sales worth $7000 this month,

Therefore, For the first $5000 he receives,

= (10/100)×5000.

= $500.

And for the rest (7000 - 5000) = $2000 he receives,

= (20/100)×2000.

= $400.

So, In total, he received (500 + 400) = $900
