In a particular triathlon the athletes cover 1/24 of the total distance by
swimming, 1/3 of it by running, and the rest by bike. What is the ratio of
the distance covered by bike to the distance covered by running?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "d" be the total distance, that is, the distance for swimming (s), running (r) and going by bike (b).

d = s + r + b   [1]

1/24 of the total distance is covered by  swimming.

s = 1/24 d   [2]

1/3 of the distance is covered by running.

r = 1/3 d  [3]

If we replace [2] and [3] in [1], we get

d = 1/24 d + 1/3 d + b

b = d - 1/24 d - 1/3 d

b = 24/24 d - 1/24 d - 8/24 d

b = 15/24 d = 5/8 d

The ratio of  the distance covered by bike to the distance covered by running is:

b/r = (5/8 d)/(1/3 d) = 15/8

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (4x² + 1) + (x² - 5) = 5x² - 4. (D)

Answer:

D. 5x^2-4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find (f+g)(x), which is really just the sum of the two functions.

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)

We know the the functions are:

• f(x)= 4x^2+1

• g(x)=x^2-5

Substitute the functions in.

(f+g)(x)=(4x^2+1)+(x^2-5)

Add the functions by combining like terms. For this equation, the like terms are those with x^2 and the constants.

(f+g)(x)= (4x^2+x^2)+(1-5)

Add the terms with x^2

(f+g)(x)=(5x^2)+(1-5)

Add the constants or terms without variables.

(f+g)(x)=(5x^2)+(-4) = 5x^2-4

The sum of the functions is D. 5x^2-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of linear equations is,

2x + 3y - 2z = -7 ---------- (1)

x - 2y + 4z = 15 ------- (2)

2y + z = 1 ------------ (3)

Equation (2) multiplied by 2 then subtracted from equation (1),

(2x + 3y - 2z) - 2(x - 2y + 4z) = -7 - 30

(2x - 2x) + (3y + 4y) + (-2z - 8z) = -37

7y - 10z = -37 ------ (4)

Equation (3) multiplied by 10 then added to equation (4),

(20y + 10z) + (7y - 10z) = 10 - 37

27y = -27

y = -1

From equation (3),

2(-1) + z = 1

-2 + z = 1

z = 3

From equation (2),

x - 2(-1) + 4(3) = 15

x + 2 + 12 = 15

x + 14 = 15

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the distance between two points is expressed as

D =√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Given the coordinates (0,0) and (8,5)

D = √(5-0)²+(8-0)²

Answers

Graph of the question is missing so I have attached it

Answer:

Option A: Axis of symmetry: x = -0.5; Vertex: (-0.5, 0.75); f(x) = x2 + x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The axis of symmetry of quadratic graph is the vertical line that divides the graph curve into two congruent halves. In this case, it is: x = -0.5

2) Vertex is the point at which the graph curve changes direction or simply coordinates of the crest or trough of the curve.

The graph given has a trough with the coordinates: x = -0.5, y = 0.75. This is (-0.5, 0.75)

3) The roots of a quadratic equation are the points where the curve crosses the x-axis. In this case, it doesn't cross and so we have imaginary roots.

Now, formula for line of symmetry is; x = -b/2a

Thus; -b/2a = -0.5 or -b/2a = -1/2

Thus, b = 1 and a = 1

Our first and second terms will now be;

x² + x

Looking at the options, the only one with x² + x as it's first 2 terms is option A.

Thus, the complete equation will be x² + x + 1

How high is the peak of the Matterhorn? Below is a picture of the Matterhorn in Switzerland. As a surveyor, it is your job to estimate the elevation of the mountain. Using a device called a theodolite, you measure two angles from the horizontal plane to the top of the mountain as shown below. You also record the distance between the two measurements to be 1500 ft. Your elevation is known to be at 9,756ft above sea level. Determine the height of the Matterhorn (above sea level) to the nearest foot.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]E\approx14,962\text{ feet}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attachment below.

As shown, we can split the diagram into a scalene triangle and a right triangle.

The strategy here is to use the Law of Sines to find x, then use right triangle ratios to find h, the height of Matterhorn (with respect to our elevation).

Let’s start with the scalene triangle.

To use the Law of Sines, we will need two angles and the sides opposite to the angles.

Since we need to find x, we need the angle opposite to x. This is already given to us as 30°.

We can use the side that measures 1,500. The angle opposite to it θ is unknown.

So, we will need to determine θ. From supplementary angles, we know that:

[tex]\alpha+35=180[/tex]

So, it follows that:

[tex]\alpha=145^\circ[/tex]

The interior angles of a triangle always sum to 180°. Hence:

[tex]30+\alpha+\theta=180[/tex]

By substitution:

[tex]30+145+\theta=180[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\theta=5^\circ[/tex]

Now, we can use the Law of Sines, given by:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\sin(A)}{a}=\frac{\sin(B)}{b}[/tex]

It is important to align the angles correctly with the sides.

So, we will substitute θ = 5° for A and 1,500 for a.

And we will substitute 30° for B and x for b. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\sin(5^\circ)}{1,500}=\frac{\sin(30^\circ)}{x}[/tex]

Solve for x. Cross-multiply:

[tex]x\sin(5^\circ)=1500\sin(30^\circ)[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{1500\sin(30^\circ)}{\sin(5^\circ)}[/tex]

When doing trigonometry (or any math, really), try not to round intermediate values, as this may result in inaccuracies in the final answer. Hence, we will leave this as is.

Now, we can use the right triangle.

We know that an angle is 35°.

The height h is opposite to our angle.

And x was our hypotenuse. Therefore, we can use the sine ratio given by:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin(x^\circ)=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

In this case, our angle is 35°.

The opposite side is h.

And the hypotenuse is x. Hence, by substitution:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin(35^\circ)=\frac{h}{x}[/tex]

Solve for h. Multiply both sides by x:

[tex]h=x\sin(35^\circ)[/tex]

Since we already know the value of x:

[tex]\displaystyle h=\frac{1500\sin(30^\circ)}{\sin(5^\circ)}\cdot\sin(35^\circ)[/tex]

Simplify. So, the height of Matterhorn with respect to our current elevation is:

[tex]\displaystyle h =\frac{1500\sin(30^\circ)\sin(35^\circ)}{\sin(5^\circ)}[/tex]

The total elevation of Matterhorn will be the current elevation of the surveyor plus the height with respect to the current elevation or simply h. So, the elevation height is:

[tex]E=9756+h[/tex]

By substitution:

[tex]\displaystyle E=9756+\frac{1500\sin(30^\circ)\sin(35^\circ)}{\sin(5^\circ)}[/tex]

Now we may approximate. Use a calculator. So, the total elevation of Matterhorn is:

[tex]E=14961.78867...\approx14,962\text{ feet}[/tex]

A randomized trial tested the effectiveness of diets on adults. Among 36 subjects using Diet 1, the mean weight loss after a year was 3.5 pounds with a standard deviation of 5.9 pounds. Among 36 subjects using Diet 2, the mean weight loss after a year was 0.6 pounds with a standard deviation of 4.4 pounds. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the difference between the population means, assuming the population standard deviations are equal.

Answers

Answer:

The 95%  confidence interval is

           [tex] 0.45 <  \mu_1 - \mu_2  < 5.35 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The first sample size is  [tex]n_1 = 36[/tex]

   The first  sample mean is  [tex]\= x_1 = 3.5[/tex]

   The first standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma_1 = 5.9 \ pounds[/tex]

   The second  sample size is [tex]n_2 = 36[/tex]

    The second  sample mean is  [tex]\= x_2 = 0.6[/tex]

    The second  standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 4.4[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

     [tex]df = \frac{ [ \frac{s_1^2 }{n_1 } + \frac{s_2^2 }{n_2} ]^2 }{ \frac{1}{(n_1 - 1 )} [ \frac{s_1^2}{n_1} ]^2 + \frac{1}{(n_2 - 1 )} [ \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} ]^2 }[/tex]

=>  [tex]df = \frac{ [ \frac{5.9^2 }{34 } + \frac{4.4^2 }{34} ]^2 }{ \frac{1}{(34 - 1 )} [ \frac{5.9^2}{34} ]^2 + \frac{1}{(34- 1 )} [ \frac{4.4^2}{ 34} ]^2 }[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =63[/tex]

Generally the standard error is mathematically represented as

      [tex]SE = \sqrt{ \frac{s_1 ^2 }{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2 }{ n_2 } }[/tex]

=>  [tex]SE = \sqrt{ \frac{ 5.9 ^2 }{ 36 } + \frac{ 4.4^2 }{36} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]SE = 1.227[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the t distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of is  

     [tex]t_{\frac{\alpha }{2}, 63  } =  1.998  [/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

        [tex]E = t_{\frac{\alpha }{2}, 63 } * SE[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.998 * 1.227[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 2.45[/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex](\= x_1 - \x_2) -E <  \mu <(\= x_1 - \x_2)  + E[/tex]

 => [tex](3.5  - 0.6) - 2.45 <  \mu_1 - \mu_2  < (  3.5  - 0.6)  + 2.45 [/tex]

=>   [tex] 0.45 <  \mu_1 - \mu_2  < 5.35 [/tex]
