I Don't Understand This Problem

Answer 1
Answer:  1.8

Note: 1.8 = 9/5

===========================================================

Explanation:

This problem may be strangely worded, so I'll try to phrase it differently. That part will come in a later section below (specifically section 3).

For now, let's just find the probability of finding two white marbles if we replace the first marble chosen. We consider this a "replacement" situation.

We have 5 blue, 3 red and 2 white marbles. That means 5+3+2 = 10 total. The probability of picking white is 2/10 = 1/5. Since the first marble is replaced, the probability of picking white the second time is still 1/5.

The probability of picking two white marbles is (1/5)*(1/5) = 1/25 = 0.04 = 4%

---------------------------------

Now let's consider a "no replacement" situation. We won't put the marble back, or we won't replace it with an identical copy. After the first marble is picked, we have 10-1 = 9 marbles left and 2-1 = 1 white marble left.

The probability of getting white on the second selection, after no replacement is made, is 1/9 instead of 2/10 = 1/5

The probability of getting two white marbles in this scenario is (2/10)*(1/9) = (2*1)/(10*9) = 2/90 = 1/45 = 0.0222 = 2.22% approximately

We can see that there is a difference in probabilities between "replacement" and "no replacement" when we pick two white marbles like this.

---------------------------------

The fractional answer to the first section was 1/25. Let A = 1/25

The fractional answer to the second section was 1/45. Let B = 1/45

A and B are the probabilities for "replacement" vs "no replacement" in that order.

Your teacher wants to know how many times greater the value of A is compared to B.

In symbols, your teacher wants to know the value of k in the equation A = Bk

So...

A = Bk

1/25 = (1/45)k

1/25 = k/45

1*45 = 25*k

45 = 25k

25k = 45

k = 45/25

k = (9*5)/(5*5)

k = 9/5

k = 1.8

Either the fractional or decimal version of k would work as the answer. It might sound better if you go with the decimal version, though again, both values are equivalent.

The value of A is 1.8 times greater compared to the value of B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A train travels a distance of 120 km at a constant speed of V kmh 1. If the speed
is reduced by 10kmh), then the time taken to the journey is increased by one
hour. Find the constant speed V of train.


Help me please

Answers

Answer:

V = 40 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 120 km

Constant speed of train = V km/h

⇒ [tex]Time \: taken \: by \: train = \frac{Distance}{Speed} = \frac{120}{V} \: hr[/tex]

Its given that if speed is reduced by 10 km/h , the time taken by train increases by 1 hour. BUT THE DISTANCE REMAINS SAME. So,

[tex]Speed \times Time = Distance[/tex]

[tex]=> (V - 10)(\frac{120}{V} + 1) = 120[/tex]

[tex]=> 120 + V - \frac{1200}{V} - 10 = 120[/tex]

[tex]=> V - \frac{1200}{V} - 10 = 0[/tex]

[tex]=> \frac{V^2 - 1200 - 10V}{V} = 0[/tex]

[tex]=> V^2 - 10V - 1200 = 0[/tex]

Factorise the quadratic equation.

[tex]=> V^2 - 40V + 30V - 1200[/tex]

[tex]=> V(V - 40) + 30(V - 40)[/tex]

[tex]=> (V - 40)(V + 30)[/tex]

[tex]=> V = 40 \: (or) \: -30[/tex]

Speed can't be negative. So , V = 40 km/h

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

4x = 73 - 9

4x = 64

x = 64/4

x = 16

Therefore, the unknown number is 16.

For 11 days straight, Mike drove the same distance every day going to and coming from work. On the 12th day, he drove an extra 7 miles. If Mike drives 91 miles in total in those 12 days, write an expression to find the distance he travels each day going to and from work.

Answers

Answer:

A) The algebraic expression

= 12x + 7 = 91

B) He drives 7 miles per day

Step-by-step explanation:

For 11 days straight, Mike drove the same distance every day going to and coming from work.

Step 1

We are told : Mike drives 91 miles in total in those 12 days,

On the 12th day, he drove an extra 7 miles.

Hence:

91 miles - 7 extra miles

= 84 miles

Step 2

The number of miles he drives per day:

84 miles/12

= 7 miles per day

Step 3

The expression we can use to find the distance he travels each day going to and from work is written as:

Let the number of miles he travels be day = x

12x + 7 = 91 miles

12x + 7 = 91

12x = 91 - 7

12x = 84

x = 84/12

x = 7 miles per day
