A clock gains time at a steady rate. It is set to the correct time at
10: 00 AM. When the clock shows 2 : 00 PM, the correct time is
1: 36 PM. How many minutes fast will the clock be the next time the
correct time is 5 : 30 PM?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The clock will be 50 minutes fast

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

It's known a clock gains time at a steady state, or constant rate.

At 10:00 AM the clock is set at the correct time and at 1:36 PM the clock shows 2:00 PM. This means in that period of time, it has gained 24 minutes.

From 10:00 AM to 1:36 PM there are 3 hours and 36 minutes, or equivalently, 3*60+36 = 216 minutes

Our clock gains time at a rate of 24 minutes each 216 minutes. This gives the ratio 24:216 = 1:9.

When the new correct time is 5:30 PM, there will have passed 7 hours and 30 minutes since 10:00 AM, or equivalently, 7*60+30 = 450 minutes.

Since the clock gains time at a ratio 1:9, the time gained is 450/9=50 minutes.

The clock will show 50 minutes more than the correct time of 5:30 PM, that is, 6:20 PM.

The clock will be 50 minutes fast

Suppose a loaded die has the following probability model: If this die is thrown and the top face shows an odd number, what is the probability that the die shows a 1

Answers

Answer:

the probability is 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Let us assume the X would be the number appear on the top face

Now

= P(X = 1) ÷ P(X = 0)

= 0.3 ÷ 0.3 + 0.1 + 0.1

= 0.3 ÷ 0.5

= 0.6

hence, the probability is 0.6

Answer:

(5,-6) is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]6x + 3y = 12[/tex]

[tex]4x + y = 14[/tex]

Required

Tell whether (5,-6) is a solution

In (5,-6): x = 5 and y = -6.

Substitute these values in the given equations

[tex]6x + 3y = 12[/tex] becomes

[tex]6 * 5 + 3 * -6 = 12[/tex]

[tex]30-18 = 12[/tex]

[tex]12 = 12[/tex]

[tex]4x + y = 14[/tex] becomes

[tex]4 * 5 - 6 = 14[/tex]

[tex]20 - 6 = 14[/tex]

[tex]14 = 14[/tex]

Because both solutions are true, then (5,-6) is a solution

A field is a rectangle with a perimeter of 1240 feet. The length is 400 feet more than the width. Find the width and length of the rectangular field.
The width

Answers

Answer:  The length is 510 and the width is 110.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, you will have to add the 2 times the length plus 2 times the width because  a rectangle have 4 sides. Two widths and two  lengths.

You can now use the formula  P= 2l + 2w  

were P is the perimeter , l is the length, and w is the width.

the length is 400 more than the width, so we can represent that by the equation,  l = w + 400  

And now we know that the width is w.

So now we will input the perimeter, length, and into the formula to solve for w.

1240 = 2(w + 400) + 2w

1240 = 2w + 800 + 2w

1240 = 4w + 800

-800            -800

   440 = 4w

    w = 110

L= 110 + 400

L = 510  

Check :

1240 = 2(510) + 2(110)

1240 = 1020 + 220

1240 = 1240

A blogger had 400 subscribers to her blog in January. The number of subscribers has grown by a factor of 1.5 every month since then. Write a sequence to represent the number of subscribers in the 3 months that followed.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]600, 900, 1350[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a = 400[/tex] -- initial subscribers

[tex]b = 1.5[/tex] -- growth factor

Required

Determine the number of subscribers in the next three months

To do this, we make use of:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

In this case:

x is the number of months

y is the number of subscribers

So:

when x = 1;

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]y = 400 * 1.5^1[/tex]

[tex]y = 400 * 1.5[/tex]

[tex]y = 600[/tex]

when x = 2

[tex]y = 400 * 1.5^2[/tex]

[tex]y = 400 * 2.25[/tex]

[tex]y = 900[/tex]

when x= 3

[tex]y = 400 * 1.5^3[/tex]

[tex]y = 400 * 3.375[/tex]

[tex]y = 1350[/tex]

So, the next three number of subscribers is:

[tex]600, 900, 1350[/tex]

A department store buys 300 shirts at a cost of $3,600 and sells them at a selling price of $20 each. Find the percent markup. The percent markup is 1%. (Round to the nearest whole number as needed)​

Answers

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

A department store buys 300 shirts at a cost of $3,600 and sells them at a selling price of $20 each. Find the percent markup.

The formula for Percent Markup is given as:

Selling price - Cost price/Cost price × 100

Cost price = $3,600

Selling price = $20 × 300 shirts

= $6000

Percent Markup = $6000 - $3600/6000 × 100

= 2400/6000 × 100

= 40%

The percent Markup is 40%

The function d = 16t2 models the distance d, in feet, that an object falls in t seconds. Find the inverse function and use the inverse function

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t = \frac{1}{4}\sqrt d[/tex]

Time to reach 100ft is 2.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]d = 16t^2[/tex]

Solving (a): Determine the inverse function

[tex]d = 16t^2[/tex]

Swap the positions of d and t

[tex]t = 16d^2[/tex]

Make d the subject

[tex]\frac{t}{16} = d^2[/tex]

Take positive square root of both sides

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{t}{16}} = d[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{\frac{t}{16}}[/tex]

[tex]d = \frac{1}{4}\sqrt t[/tex]

Swap the positions of d and t

[tex]t = \frac{1}{4}\sqrt d[/tex] --- The inverse function

Solving (b): Find t when d =100

Substitute 100 for d in [tex]t = \frac{1}{4}\sqrt d[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1}{4}\sqrt {100[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1}{4}* 10[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1* 10}{4}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{10}{4}[/tex]

[tex]t = 2.5[/tex]

Answer:

Zach time of reading every weekend forms a sequence with these terms: 10, 20, 40, 80. On the other hand, that of Victoria forms a sequence with terms: 35, 50, 65, 80. By keenly observing the sequences, Zach's sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio equal to 2 and Victoria's sequence is an arithmetic or linear sequence with a common difference of 15.

Answers

Answer:

The product of (k + 1) series starts with 3 (because k = 2) and you need 2 to be multiplied to this in order to get (n + 1)!

Therefore you need to multiply 2 and 1/2 to make it right. 2 completes the factorial and 1/2 remains.

Answer:

P(15) = (200,000)(1.08)15 = 634,434

Step-by-step explanation:

If the population at the beginning of 2000 was 200,000

Then the growth equation is P = Po(1.08)(y)     where year year 2000 was year 1 or y = 1

At the end of 2015 or  2015-2000 = 15 years later, or at the end of the 15th year

If the population at the beginning of 2000 was 200,000

Then the growth equation is P = Po(1.08)(y) where year year 2000 was year 1 or y = 1

At the end of 2015 or 2015-2000 = 15 years later, or at the end of the 15th year:
