On an uphill hike, Ted climbs at a rate of 3 miles an hour. Going down, he runs at a rate of 5 miles an hour. If it takes him 40 minutes longer to climb up than run down, what is the total length of Ted's hike?

Answers

Answer 1

So the other guy has the right work but at the end he messed up. The real answer is 10 miles.

Answer 2
Final answer:

By establishing the relationship between Ted's uphill and downhill travel times, we can set up an equation to solve for the one-way distance D of the hike. We find that the one-way distance D is 5 miles, making the total length of the hike 10 miles.

Explanation:

On an uphill hike, Ted climbs at a rate of 3 miles an hour. Going down, he runs at a rate of 5 miles an hour. If it takes him 40 minutes longer to climb up than run-down, we need to figure out the total length of Ted's hike.

First, let's establish the relationship between the times it takes Ted to hike up and run down the hill. If T is the time it takes to run down, then the time to hike up is T + 40/60 hours (since 40 minutes is two-thirds of an hour).

Let D be the distance of the hike one way. As Ted climbs up at a rate of 3 miles per hour, the uphill time is D/3. Running down at a rate of 5 miles per hour, the downhill time is D/5. We can set up the following equation:

D/3 = D/5 + 40/60

Multiplying through by 15 to eliminate fractions, we get:

5D = 3D + 10

This simplifies to:

2D = 10

Dividing by 2:

D = 5 miles

Since the total hike involves going up and then down the same distance, the total length of the hike is:

Total Length = 5 miles + 5 miles = 10 miles.

The correlation coefficient r between the size of a lake in square miles, x, and the yearly number of registered boaters, y, is 0.743. What percent of the variation in the number of yearly boaters can be explained by differences in lake sizes?
74.3%
55.2%
44.8%
37.2%

Answers

Actually variation is simply equivalent to the square of the correlation coefficient r. So we can say that:

variation = r^2

 

So given an r value of 0.743, so the variation is:

variation = 0.743^2

variation = 0.552

 

Answer:

55.2%

Keep in mind the the word "percent" translates to "for each 100." 25% can be read as "25 for each 100," which has the fractional representation [tex] \frac{25}{100} [/tex] and the decimal representation 0.25. All of these representations are just different ways of writing the same value.

Note too that the fraction [tex] \frac{25}{100} [/tex] can be reduced to [tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex], so what the question is really asking is: 1/4 of what number is 9?

Well, if we know that 1/4 of the number is 9, we can easily find how large the whole number is by finding all 4/4 of it (the whole number), or 4 x 9, which multiplies out to 36.

x=2/3y because you want to know what roberts time is

Jessie's total bus ride time, represented by y, is 5 minutes longer than [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of Robert's bus ride time, which is represented by x, leading to the equation y = ([tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex])x + 5.

Jessie's bus ride to school is 5 minutes longer than [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] the time of Robert's bus ride. Given that Jessie's time riding the bus is represented by y, and Robert's time riding the bus is represented by x, the equation to represent this situation is:

y = ([tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex])x + 5.

This equation indicates that if you take [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of Robert's ride time (x) and then add 5 minutes, you'll get Jessie's bus ride time (y).

How many integers less than 1000 have no factors (other than 1) in common with 1000?

Answers

168 numbers beginning with the
2, 3, 7, 11,13 and ending with the 983, 991 and 997
There are 999 integers less than 1000. Immediately, we can eliminate all of the even numbers among those, since we know they share the factor 2 with 1000. This gets rid of 499 integers, leaving us with 500 odd integers. To make our next elimination, we'll have to take a look at 1000 again.

1000's prime factorization is 2³ · 5³, which means that our final filter on the remaining integers should be to eliminate every integer divisible by 5. Any whole number ending in a 0 or a 5 is divisible by 5, but since we've eliminated all even numbers from our list, we've split the amount of those divisible numbers in half. It may be a bit hard to visualize this elimination, so let's figure out how many integers would get eliminated in a bit of a simpler setting first:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

Usually we'd be eliminating 4 numbers from this sequence, but in a sequence with all the even numbers eliminated:

1 3 7 9 11 13 15 19

We only eliminate half that amoung, or 2.

Here, we'd usually be eliminating 100 of the numbers from our list of 500 (or 1/5 of the list, since we eliminate a number every 5 integers), but here, we're only eliminating half of that amount, or 50. This leaves us with 500 - 50 = 450 integers with no factors in common with 1000.

Note: We also sometimes refer to numbers with this kind of relationship as coprime or relatively prime.

What is a cubic polynomial function in standard form with zeroes 1, –2, and 2?

Answers

Starting off with the polynomial in standard form would be extremely difficult, but we can construct one fairly easily with the zeroes we've been given.

We know from the given zeroes that our function has the value 0 when x = 1, x = -2, and x = 2. Manipulating each equation, we can rewrite them as x - 1 = 0, x + 2 = 0, and x - 2 = 0. To construct our polynomial, we simply use all three of the expressions on the left side of the equation as factors and multiply them together, obtaining:

[tex](x-1)(x+2)(x-2)=0[/tex]

Notice that we can easily obtain each our three zeroes by dividing both sides by the two other factors. From here, we just need to expand the left-hand side of the equation. I'll show the work required here:

[tex](x-1)(x+2)(x-2)=0\\ \big[(x-1)x+(x-1)2\big](x-2)=0\\ (x^2-x+2x-2)(x-2)=0\\ (x^2+x-2)(x-2)=0\\ (x^2+x-2)x-(x^2+x-2)2=0\\ x^3+x^2-2x-(2x^2+2x-4)=0\\ x^3+x^2-2x-2x^2-2x+4=0\\ x^3+(x^2-2x^2)+(-2x-2x)+4=0\\ x^3-x^2-4x+4=0\\[/tex]

So, in standard form, our cubic polynomial would be [tex]x^3-x^2-4x+4[/tex]

Under which condition does a country with a small GDP have a large per capita income?

Answers

the concept here is that if a country has a small population, then the per capita income would be large. by dividing the total income by the total population giving you the per capita income. 

-hope this helps
GDP, or gross domestic product, is  how many goods and services a country or realm produces over an interval, usually a year.

the per capita part, means, the average per person, so you grab the GDP, say 5 trillion, and divide it evenly among all inhabitants, so a per-capita figure is really just GDP/population.

now, you can have a population like Germany with 80 million with a GDP of say hmmm 8000 million for simplification, the per-capita is then 8000/80 or  $100 per person.

now, you could have another population like say Japan, and let's just say is less people... hmmm 20 million, with a GDP of say 4000 million.

then the per-capita in that example for Japan will be 4000/20, which is $200 per-capita, notice, the Japan's example has a higher per-capita, though the GDP is smaller to the example of Germany, that's because the Japanese population is also smaller.

sidenote:  per-capita figures are often very misleading, since economies do not grow that linearly.

what is 4kx+10kx=7 solve for x

Answers

[tex]4kx+10kx=7[/tex]

Final answer:

To solve the equation 4kx+10kx=7 for x, combine like terms to get 14kx = 7, then isolate x by dividing both sides by 14k, resulting in x = 1 / (2k).

Explanation:

The question asks: what is 4kx+10kx=7 solve for x. To solve this equation for x, we first need to combine like terms. We combine 4kx and 10kx to get 14kx. The equation then becomes 14kx = 7. To isolate x, we divide both sides of the equation by 14k. This gives us x = 7 / (14k). It simplifies further to x = 1 / (2k). Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 1 / (2k).
