Jacob and Sophia are in a running club and record how long it takes them to run a 5-kilometer race. Jacob's time was 4 minutes under the average time of the running club. The difference between Jacob's time and Sophia's time is 10 minutes. The possible times of Sophia's run are ____ minutes below the average or ____ minutes above the average.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

14 minutes below or 6 minutes above

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Sophia's time was 10 minutes WORSE

4 minutes below average- 10 minutes= 14 minutes below average

Let's say Sophia's time was ten minutes BETTER

4 minutes below average + 10 minutes= 6 minutes above average.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2
Answers:

14 minutes below the average

6 minutes above the average

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

Let A = average running time

Jacob's time was 4 minutes under the average, so his time is A-4 minutes. Whatever A is, subtract off 4, and you'll get Jacob's time.

Sophia and Jacob have a difference of 10 minutes. If J = Jacob's time and S = sophia's time, then S-J = 10 or J-S = 10 depending on who has the larger time.

We can use absolute value to ensure that whatever we pick (S-J or J-S) will be positive. So |S-J| = 10. Recall that absolute value represents distance on a number line. Negative distance isn't possible.

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

Let's plug in J = A-4 and solve for S

|S-J| = 10

|S - ( J )| = 10

|S - (A-4)|

|S-A+4| = 10

S-A+4 = 10  or  S-A+4 = -10

S-A = 10-4  or  S-A = -10-4

S-A = 6  or  S-A = -14

S = A+6 or S = A-14

The equation S = A+6 shows Sophia is 6 minutes above the average

The equation S = A-14 shows Sophia is 14 minutes below the average

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

Let's pick some number for A that is over 14 minutes. Let's say the average running time is A = 20 minutes.

If A = 20, then Jacob's time is J = A-4 = 20-4 = 16

If the average running time is 20 minutes, then Jacob ran for 16 minutes.

If we subtract 10 from this, then J-10 = 16-10 = 6 is one possible time for Sophia. Notice how this is 14 minutes below the average (20-14 = 6)

If we add 10 to Jacob's time, then J+10 = 16+10 = 26, which is 6 minutes overage the average (20+6 = 26)

This is one numeric example, but you could use any value of A that you want as long as it's larger than 14. The reason A has to be larger than 14 is to ensure that Sophia's lower time value (A-14) is not negative. Having a time of zero is not feasible either.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = 2x + 6 and goes through point C (8, 1)?

Answers

Answer:

y=2x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

In parallel lines the gradient is always the same. then we sub the coordinates in to find c.

Jay bought a painting on sale for 45% off the original price, for $27. What was the price of the painting before the sale?

Answers

Answer:

 0.55x = $27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the painting = x

x - 45% of x = $27

    x - 0.45x = $27

         0.55x = $27

Divide both sides by 0.55

 0.55x/0.55 = $27/0.55

Cape Corp. Will pay a dividend of $4.40 next year. The company has stated that it will maintain a constant growth rate of 5 percent a year forever. a. If you want a return of 17 percent, how much will you pay for the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.G., 32.16.) b. If you want a return of 10 percent, how much will you pay for the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.G., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. If you want a return of 17 percent, how much will you pay for the stock?

The price of the stock can be calculated as:

= dividend next year/(required return - growth rate)

= 4.4/(17% - 5%)

= 4.4/12%

= 4.4/0.12

= 36.67

b. If you want a return of 10 percent, how much will you pay for the stock?

At 10%

= 4.4/(10% - 5%)

= 4.4/5%

= 4.4/0.05

= 88

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ist method - Area of the triangle + Area of the  trapezium

Area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h

here, b = 8 cm but h is not given

so we will find h by pythagoras theorem

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

10^2 = 8^2 + BC^2

100 = 64 + BC^2

BC^2 = 36

BC = √36

BC = 6

∴ h = 6cm

area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h

= 1/2 × 8 × 6

= 24 cm^2

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

Here a = 13cm

         b = 25 - 8 = 17 cm

         h = 6 cm

So area = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

= 1/2 ( 13 + 17 ) 6

= 90 cm^2

So total area =  Area of the triangle + Area of the  trapezium

= 24 cm^2 + 90 cm^2 = 114 cm^2

2nd method - Area of the entire figure

Since the figure is a trapezium,

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

here, a = 13cm

        b = 25 cm

        h = 6 cm

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

= 1/2 ( 13 + 25 ) 6

= 114 cm^2

A poll conducted the day before the student- body presidential election at a midwestern university showed that 53.9 percent favored Mario, the rest favoring Yin Ling. The margin of error was 4.2 percentage points. Should Yin Ling have conceded the election?

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval of the percentage of people that favored Mario = number of votes favoring Mario ± Margin of error

The confidence interval = 53.9% ± 4.2% = (49.7%, 58.1%)

This means that between 49.7% to 58.1% of the people would have voted for Mario.

Hence Yin Ling would not have won the election, since there is a probability that 50% would have voted for Mario
