Two cars leave an intersection. One car travels north: the other east. When the car traveling north had gone 15 miles, the distance between the cars was 5 miles more than the distance traveled by the car heading east. How far had the eastbound car traveled?
Answers
Answer:
20 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
When the car traveling north 'N' had gone 15 miles, the distance between the cars was 5 miles more than the distance traveled by the car heading east
Let the distance moved by the east bound car be e,
therefore, distance between the cars when the northbound car had traveled a distance of 15 miles = e + 5
Using Pythagoras rule:
(Hypotenus)^2 = (adjacent)^2 + (Opposite)^2
(e+5)^2 = 15^2 + e^2
(e+5)(e+5) = 225 + e^2
e^2 + 5e + 5e + 25 = 225 + e^2
e^2 + 10e + 25 = 225 + e^2
e^2 - e^2 + 10e = 225 - 25
10e = 200
e = 200 / 10
e = 20 miles

3. Consider the sequence,-8, -5, -2, 1, ...
a) Determine the explicit formula for the general term, 1,, of this sequence in simplified
form. (2 marks)
b) Use this formula to determine the value of t20. (1 mark)
c) Algebraically determine which term has a value of 40. (1 mark)
Answers
Answer:
a) [tex]a_n=3\,n-11[/tex]
b) [tex]a_{20}=49[/tex]
c) term number 17 is the one that gives a value of 40
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The sequence seems to be arithmetic, and with common difference d = 3.
Notice that when you add 3 units to the first term (-80, you get :
-8 + 3 = -5
and then -5 + 3 = -2 which is the third term.
Then, we can use the general form for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to find its simplified form:
[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)\,d[/tex]
That in our case would give:
[tex]a_n=-8+(n-1)\,(3)\\a_n=-8+3\,n-3\\a_n=3n-11[/tex]
b)
Therefore, the term number 20 can be calculated from it:
[tex]a_{20}=3\,(20)-11=60-11=49[/tex]
c) in order to find which term renders 20, we use the general form we found in step a):
[tex]a_n=3\,n-11\\40=3\,n-11\\40+11=3\,n\\51=3\,n\\n=\frac{51}{3} =17[/tex]
so term number 17 is the one that renders a value of 40
A stick has a length of $5$ units. The stick is then broken at two points, chosen at random. What is the probability that all three resulting pieces are longer than $1$ unit?
Answers
Answer:
4/25 = 0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The shortest stick must be between 0 and 5/3. The probability that it is longer than 1 is therefore:
(5/3 − 1) / (5/3 − 0)
(2/3) / (5/3)
2/5
So the probability that both of the shortest sticks are longer than 1 is (2/5)² = 4/25.
The equation of line l is -3y+4x=9 Write the equation of a line that is parallel to line l and passes through the point (-12,6). a) -3y+4x-69=0 b)-3y+4x-69=0 c)-3y+4x-39=0 d) 3x-3y+66=0
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line is y = mx + c
where
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
- 3y + 4x = 9
3y = 4x - 9
Divide both sides by 3
y = 4/3x - 3
Comparing with the above formula
Slope / m = 4/3
Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same
So slope of the parallel line l is also 4/3
Equation of the line using point (-12 , 6) is
y - 6 = 4/3(x + 12)
Multiply through by 3
That's
3y - 18 = 4(x + 12)
3y - 18 = 4x + 48
We have the final answer as
4x - 3y + 66 = 0Hope this helps you

A black die and a white die are thrown at the same
time. Display all the possible outcomes. Find the
probability of obtaining:
a) a total of 5
b) a total of 11
c) a 'two' on the black die and a six' on the white die.
It is convenient to display all the possible outcomes
on a grid. This is called a possibility diagram
It’s example 2 please help:)
Answers
Answer:
Total possible outcomes = 6×6 = 36
a) P(5) = 1/9
b) P(11) = 1/18
c) P(two and six) = 1/36
Step-by-step explanation:
A black die and a white die are thrown at the same time.
Each die has six sides so total possible outcomes are
Total possible outcomes = 6×6 = 36
The possible outcomes are given below:
(1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)
(2, 1) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 4) (2, 5) (2, 6)
(3, 1) (3, 2) (3, 3) (3, 4) (3, 5) (3, 6)
(4, 1) (4, 2) (4, 3) (4, 4) (4, 5) (4, 6)
(5, 1) (5, 2) (5, 3) (5, 4) (5, 5) (5, 6)
(6, 1) (6, 2) (6, 3) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6)
a) Find the probability of obtaining a total of 5
Number of ways to get a total of 5 = (1, 4) (2, 3) (3, 2) (4, 1)
Number of ways to get a total of 5 = 4
The probability is given by
P = Number of desired outcomes/total number of outcomes
P(5) = 4/36
P(5) = 1/9
b) Find the probability of obtaining a total of 11
Number of ways to get a total of 11 = (5, 6) (6, 5)
Number of ways to get a total of 11 = 2
The probability is given by
P(11) = 2/36
P(11) = 1/18
c) a 'two' on the black die and a six' on the white die.
There is only one way to get a two on the black die.
Probability of obtaining a two on the black die = 1/6
There is only one way to get a six on the white die.
Probability of obtaining a six on the white die = 1/6
P(two and six) = 1/6×1/6
P(two and six) = 1/36

These tables of values represent continuous functions. For which function will the y-values be the greatest for very large values of x?
Answers
Answer:
The table D represents the function that will have the greatest y-values for very large values of x.
Step-by-step explanation:
The table A represents a linear function, for which each one unit increment in the "x" variable produces a three unit increment in the "y" variable. This means that the growth rate of this function is 3.
The table B also represents a linear function, for which each one unit increment in the x variable produces a 100 unit increment in the y variable. This means that the growth rate of this function is 100.
The table C also represents a linear function, for which each one unit increment in the x variable produces a 10 unit increment in the y variable. This means that the growth rate of this function is 10.
The table D on the other hand does not represent a linear function, since the growth rate is variable and increases for greater values of x. This means that as x grows larger, the growth rate of the function also grows larger, resulting in a much greater y value for very large x values if we compare it to a linear function, like the other options.

1. A test-tube has a diameter of 3cm. How many turns would a piece of thread of length
90.42cm make round the test tube. (Taken= =).
(3marks)
Answers
So if we think of a test tube, it looks sort of like a cylinder. This means that its cross-section would be a circle. To find out how many turns a piece of thread would make around the test tube, we need to find the circumference of the test tube, then divide the length of the string by the circumference.
Step 1) Find the circumference
C = pi x diameter
C = 3.14 x 3
C = 9.42
Step 2) Divide the length of the string by the circumference
90.42 / 9.42 = 9.5987
The string would make approximately 9.60 turns around the test tube.

When she triples the amount in her purse and add in to money box she gets rs 2200. How much money does she have in her purse
Answers
Answer:
Money in her purse is Rs. 500.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the money in her purse = Rs. [tex]x\\[/tex]
Let the money in her Money box = Rs. [tex]y[/tex]
As per question statement,
Double the money in her purse (i.e. [tex]2 \times x[/tex]) and add it to the amount in money box, she gets Rs. 1700.[tex]2x+y=1700[/tex] ........ (1)
Triple the money in her purse (i.e. [tex]3\times x[/tex]) and add it to amount in money box ([tex]y[/tex]), she gets Rs. 2200.[tex]3x+y=2200[/tex] ....... (2)
To find: Money in her purse = ? i.e. [tex]x=?[/tex]
Let us solve for [tex]x[/tex] using the two linear equations.
We can use substitution method here i.e. find value of one variable from one equation and then substitute that value in other equation.
Using equation (1), we get the value of [tex]y[/tex] as follows:
[tex]y=1700-2x[/tex]
Now, let us put this value of y in equation (2) to find the value of [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]3x+1700-2x=2200\\\Rightarrow x+1700 = 2200\\\Rightarrow x=2200-1700\\\Rightarrow x = Rs.\ 500[/tex]
Money in her purse is Rs. 500.

Answers
Answer:
T1he values for x and y of the equations is y = 11, and x = -19/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to rearrange the expression:
5x+4y=25 - (5x+2y=3)
Look, if we subtract one equation to the other, then:
5x+4y=25 [1]
-(5x+2y=3) [2]
Which is the same as:
5x+4y=25
-5x-2y=-3
Subtract them:
5x+4y=25
-5x-2y=-3
---------------
2y =22
y = 22/2 = 11
Then, y = 11.
To find x, we can substitute y in either equation [1] or [2].
Let us use [1]
5x+4y=25
5x+4(11)=25
5x+44=25
5x=25-44
5x=-19
x = -19/5
Then, the values for x and y of the equations is y = 11, and x = -19/5.

Help me please..
Answers
Answer:
(a) 56 ways
(b) 6 ways
(c) 56 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
candidates: 6 mail, 1 female
number to hire : 3
a) In how many different ways can choose new employees?
use the combination formula to choose r to hire out of n candidates
C(n,r) = C(8,3) = 8! / (3! (8-3)! ) = 40320 / (120*6) = 56 ways
b) In how many different ways can choose a single male candidate?
6 ways to choose a male, one way to choose two female, so 6*1 = 6 ways
c) In how many different ways can choose at least one male candidate?
To choose at least 1 male candidate, we subtract the ways to choose no male candidates out of 56.
Since there are only two females, there is no way to choose 3 female candidates.
In other words, there are 56-0 = 56 ways (as in part (a) ) to hire 3 employees with at least one male candidate.

if a student is selected at random find the probability the student is a male given that it's a senior. Round to the nearest whole percent.
Answers
Answer: 40%.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the table : Total Seniors = 2+3= 5
Number of male seniors = 2
If a student is selected at random find the probability the student is a male given that it's a senior:
P(Male | senior)[tex]=\dfrac{\text{Number of male seniors}}{\text{Total seniors}}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
In percent, [tex]\dfrac{2}{5}\times100=40\%[/tex]
Hence, the probability the student is a male given that it's a senior. =40%.
The probability of the student is a male senior is 7%.
Given, here from the 2- way table the total no. students will be 30.
We have to find out the probability of the student select at random, student is a senior male .
We know that, the probability of an event E, will be
[tex]P(E)=\dfrac{No.\ of \ favaurable\ outcomes}{Total\ outcomes}[/tex]
Now,
[tex]P( Senior\ male)= \dfrac{2}{30} \\\\P( Senior\ male)=0.06\\[/tex]
Representing it in percentage as,
[tex]P( Senior\ male)=0.06666\times100\%\\P( Senior\ male=6.66\%[/tex]
Hence the nearest whole percent will be 7%.
Thus probability of the student is a male senior is 7%.
