At a NASCAR racetrack, the distance per lap is 2 miles. Lou Lambert drives his car at a constant rate of 160 miles per hour. Ralph Redding drives his car at a constant rate of 170 miles per hour. How long will it take before Ralph gains 2 laps in relation to Lou?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance per lap = 2 miles

Speed of Lou Lambert = 160 miles/hr

Speed of Ralph Redding = 170 miles/hr

Speed difference between the two = 170 - 160 = 10 miles/hr

Therefore, we can say that Ralph gains 10 miles in 60 minutes over Lou.

We have to find the time in which Ralph will gain 2 laps i.e. 2 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = 4 miles.

Let us use unitary method to find the required time.

10 miles are gained by Ralph in 60 minutes

1 mile will be gained in [tex]\frac{60}{10} = 6\ minutes[/tex]

4 miles will be gained in 6 [tex]\times[/tex] 4 = 24 minutes

The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

We see that Line HI and JI are equal in length meaning that triangle HIJ is an isosceles triangle. This means that the two angles of unknown measure are both x.

So lets now set up our equation:

Find the ratio of the volume divided by the temperature for the first data pair. Use significant figures. V / T = 0. 72/276 =.

Answers

The ratio of the volume divided by the temperature for the first data pair is 0.0026 using the significant figures.

What is a ratio of two numbers?

The ratio of two number is the fraction part, which represent that how a number is more or less compare to the other.

The value of the volume is 0.72 and the value of temperature is 276 for the first data pair. The image of all the values of the volume and temperature table is attached below.

The ratio of the volume to the temperature is,

[tex]\dfrac{V }{ T} =\dfrac{ 0. 72}{276 }\\\dfrac{V }{ T} =0.002608695652[/tex]

The above value is the ratio of volume to the temperature. Now this value has to be written with significant figure.

Let's correct the value, after the 4 places of the decimal point. As the value of fifth place is zero, then the value of 4 place will remain as it is.

Thus, the ratio is,

[tex]\dfrac{V }{ T} =0.0026[/tex]

The ratio of the volume divided by the temperature for the first data pair is 0.0026 using the significant figures.

Answers

Answer: D. 14.1 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for volume of a sphere: 4/3 x pi x radius cubed

Substitute: 4/3 x pi x 1.5 cubed

= 14.1

Answer:

14.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Sphere formula;

v = 4/3πr^3

Where pi is 3.14 or 22/7

R is the radius which is cubed

Substitute the radius(1.5) into the formula:

v = 4/3πr^3

v = 4/3 * 3.14 * 1.5^3

v = 4/3 * 3.14 * 3.375

v = 4/3 * 10.5975

v = 42.39/3

v = 14.13, our closest answer would be D.

Which of the following options have the same value as
65% of 20?
Choose 2 answers:

Answers

Answer:

A) 0.65 · 20

D) [tex]\mathsf{\dfrac{65}{100} \cdot 20}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 65% of 20:

Method 1

65% in decimal form is:  65% = 65/100 = 0.65

Therefore, to find a percentage of a number, multiply the percentage in decimal form by the number:

[tex]\mathsf{\implies 65\% \ of \ 20 = 0.65 \cdot 20}[/tex]

Method 2

Divide the number by 100 to get 1%, then multiply this by 20 to get 20%.

[tex]\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{65}{100} \cdot 20}[/tex]

Solution:Step-1: Find the expression of 65% of 20Given sentence: 65% of 20

~The word "of" stands for multiplication.~

65/100 × 20                                                                     [65% = 65/100]Step-2: Verify all the options

Option A) 0.65 × 20

~0.65 can be converted to fraction, which is 65/100.~

⇒ 65/100 × 20 = 65/100 × 20                                        [0.65 = 65/100]

~This expression correctly matches with the resulting expression.~

Thus, option A is correct.

Option B) 65/100 ÷ 20

⇒ 65/100 ÷ 20 = 65/100 × 20        

This could've been equivalent to the resulting expression. However, the expression has a division sign.

Thus, Option B is incorrect.

Option C) 65/20 × 100

~To avoid confusion, let's further solve the expression.~

65/20 × 100⇒ 65/1 × 5⇒ 325

~Now, let's solve the resulting expression.~

65/100 × 20⇒ 65/100 × 20⇒ 65/5 × 1⇒ 13

~Since 13 does not equal 325, "65/20 × 100" does not equal "65/100 × 20".~

Thus, option C is incorrect.

Option D) 65/100 × 20

~This equation is the resulting equation.~

Thus, option D is correct.

Option E) 65 × 20

~To avoid confusion, let's further solve the expression.~

65 × 20 ⇒ 650 × 2⇒ 1300

~Now, let's solve the resulting expression.~

65/100 × 20⇒ 65/100 × 20⇒ 65/5 × 1⇒ 13

Since 1300 does not equal 13, 65 × 20 does not equal 65/100 × 20.

Thus, option E is incorrect.

Step-3: Make a conclusion

Option A and D were equivalent to 65/100 × 20.

at a hockey game the snack bar sells nachos 2 dollars and pretzels for 3 dollars. The snack bar sold 49 nachos and pretzels all together for $137 dollars

Answers

Answer:

The total number of nachos sold:49

The total number of pretzels sold:13

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers of nachos is 49. Each nacho costs 2 dollars.

2 x 49 = 98

Then you subtract that amount to get the amount of money left for pretzels.

137 - 98 = 39

Then you divide 39 by 3 since that's the cost of each pretzel.

39 ÷ 3 = 13

13 is the amount of pretzels you can buy after you buy 49 nachos.

In a class of 27 students, 12 play an instrument and 6 play a sport. There are 13 students who do not play an instrument or a sport. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class plays a sport?

Answers

The probability of a student that plays sport is 6 over 27.

The probability of a student chosen plays a sport is [tex]\frac{6}{27}[/tex]

What is probability?

'Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty.'

According to the given problem,

Total number of students = 27

Number of students playing a sport = 6

Number of students playing an instrument = 12

Number of students no playing a sport or instrument = 13

Probability = [tex]\frac{No of possible events}{Total number of students}[/tex]

                  = [tex]\frac{6}{27}[/tex]

Hence, we can conclude that the probability of a student chosen plays a sport is [tex]\frac{6}{27}[/tex].
