A $2.00 base fare charge, and per-mile, and per-minute rates related as follows; 3•x + 7•y = 6.5 and 7•x + 14•y = 14, give the distance traveled in the third ride as 4.5 miles

The base fare = $2.00

Let x represent the per-mile rate, and let y represent the per-minute rate, we have;

The cost of Ryan's first taxi ride = $8.50

Distance traveled in the first ride = 3.0 miles

Time taken during the first ride = 7 minutes

Therefore;

2 + 3•x + 7•y = 8.5

Which gives;

3•x + 7•y = 8.5 - 2 = 6.5

Distance traveled in the second ride = 7.0 miles

Duration of the second ride = 14 minutes

The second ride cost = $16.00

Therefore;

2 + 7•x + 14•y = 16

Which gives;

7•x + 14•y = 16 - 2 = 14

Solving the above simultaneous equations by multiplying equation (1) by 2 then subtracting the result from equation (2) gives;

(7•x + 14•y) - 2 × (3•x + 7•y) = 14 - 2×6.5 = 1

x = 1

3•x + 7•y = 6.5

7•y = 6.5 - 3•x

7•y = 6.5 - 3×1 = 3.5

y = 3.5/7 = 1/2 = 0.5

Duration of the third taxi ride = 10 minutes

Cost of the third ride = $13.50

Therefore;

2 + 1×a + 10×y = $13.50

Where a is the distance traveled during the third ride, we have;

2 + 1×a + 10×0.5 = $13.50

2 + a + 5 = 13.5

a = 13.5 - 2 - 7 = 4.5

According to the statement

we have given that the there is a set of numbers from 1 to n and we have to find that the how many integers in this set. and there is one condition that the numbers in the set are less than or equal to 24.

So, For this purpose,

Since [tex]$1 + 2 + \cdots + n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$[/tex]

the condition is equivalent to having an integer value for [tex]$\frac{n!} {\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}$.[/tex]

This reduces, when [tex]$n\ge 1$[/tex], to having an integer value for [tex]$\frac{2(n-1)!}{n+1}$[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a number line to represent x<= 0, draw a solid circle at 0 (because 0 is included), then draw an arrow extending to the left (because it's less than or equal to).

Step 1. You need x isolated.
[tex]x < 13+7[/tex]

When you move a number from the left to right (and its addition or subtraction, the sign stays (< ≤ > and ≥ is signs).
x<20 or in words, x is less than 20, and cannot be 20.

Answer:

x < 20

Any number less than 20 is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

x-7 < 13

The first step to solve this inequality is to add 7 to each side

x-7+7 < 13+7

x < 20

Any number less than 20 is a solution

The correct probability that Juan's bus is going to be late every week next week is 20 percent.

We have the total number in the stimulation on to be from 0 to 9

On the fact that it would be late, the number ranges from 2 to 9

Hence the fact that it would be late would be

2/10

= 0.2

0.2 is also the same as 20 percent.

Juan rides the bus to school each day. He always arrives at his bus stop on time, but his bus is late 80% of the time. Juan runs a simulation to model this using a random number generator. He assigns these digits to the possible outcomes for each day of the week:

• Let 0 and 1 = bus is on time

• Let 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 = bus is late

Percentage error is the difference between an actual value and its expected value per the actual value which is expressed in percentage. In the given question, the percentage error is option b.  0.0772

Percentage error is the difference between an actual value and its expected value per the actual value which is expressed in percentage.

This can be expressed as;

percentage error = [tex]\frac{actual value - expected value}{actual value}[/tex] x 100%

Where the actual value is the accurate value, and the expected value is derived from the actual value.

Thus in the given question, it can be deduced that,

actual value = 625.483

expected value = 625.000

The difference between the two values = (625.483 - 625.000)

                                                  = 0.483

So that,

percentage error = [tex]\frac{0.483}{625.483}[/tex] x 100%

                   = 0.07722

percentage error = 0.0772

The 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the height of students at UH is given by; CI = (1.81, 4.03)

The formula for the confidence interval for the standard deviation is given by the formula;

CI = √[(n - 1)s²/(χ²ₙ ₋ ₁, α/2)], √[(n - 1)s²/(χ²ₙ ₋ ₁, (1 - α)/2)]

We are given;

Sample size; n = 14

D F = n - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

Standard Deviation; s = 2.5

Confidence Level; CL = 95% = 0.95

Significance level; α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

Thus, using Chi-square distribution table online we have;

χ²₁₃, ₀.₀₂₅  = 24.736

(χ²₁₃, ₀.₉₇₅) = 5.01

Now, the 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the height of students at UH is given by :-

The relative frequency of students who have three siblings is 25% given that there are 60 students in a class in which 5 have no siblings, 26 have one sibling, 14 have two siblings and 15 have three siblings. This can be obtained by using the formula for relative frequency.

Given that,

total number of students in the class = 60

number of students who have no sibling = 5

number of students who have 1 sibling = 26

number of students who have 2 sibling = 14

number of students who have 3 sibling = 15

Formula for relative frequency = f/n, where f is the number of times the data occurred, n is the total number of frequencies.

Therefore,

relative frequency of students who have three siblings = 15/60 = 0.25

In percentage ⇒ 0.25 × 100 = 25%

Hence the relative frequency of students who have three siblings is 25% given that there are 60 students in a class in which 5 have no siblings, 26 have one sibling, 14 have two siblings and 15 have three siblings.

[tex]\implies 7y = -5x + 50[/tex]

[tex]\implies y = -\dfrac{5}{7}x+\dfrac{50}{7}[/tex]

Vic and Dan are 2, 897m apart.

It is important to note that the distance between Vic and Dan is the base of CN

Let's say the distance to Dan is x

The distance to Vic is y

Using cosine ratio, we have

cos α = opposite / adjacent

α = 72°

opposite = 553. 3cm

Adjacent = x

cos  72° = [tex]\frac{553. 3}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]cos 72[/tex] × [tex]x[/tex] = [tex]553. 3[/tex]

[tex]0. 3090x= 553. 3[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{553. 3}{0. 3090}[/tex]

[tex]x = 1, 790. 61[/tex] m

The distance to Vic is y

Using the cosine ratio, we have

[tex]cos 60 = \frac{553. 3}{y}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]0. 5y = 553. 3[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{553. 3}{0. 5}[/tex]

The fraction is:

Answer:

Original fraction = ⁴/₇

Step-by-step explanation:

Numerator:  top of the fraction

Denominator: bottom of a fraction

Let x be the original numerator.

If the denominator of a fraction exceeds the numerator by 3:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{x}{x+3}[/tex]

If the numerator is doubled and the denominator is increased by 14, then fraction becomes 2/3rd of the original fraction:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2x}{x+3+14}=\dfrac{2}{3}\left(\dfrac{x}{x+3}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2x}{x+17}=\dfrac{2x}{3(x+3)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{2x}{x+17}=\dfrac{2x}{3x+9}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

[tex]\implies 2x(3x+9)=2x(x+17)[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2x:

[tex]\implies 3x+9=x+17[/tex]

Subtract x from both sides:

[tex]\implies 2x+9=17[/tex]

Subtract 9 from both sides:

[tex]\implies 2x=8[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2:

[tex]\implies x=4[/tex]

Substitute the found value of x into the original fraction:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{4}{4+3}=\dfrac{4}{7}[/tex]

Therefore, the original fraction is ⁴/₇.

D. The slope is -2. The y-intercept is (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use any two points.

Let's use the first two points: (0, 3), (2, -1)

slope = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)

slope = (-1 - 3)/(2 - 0)

slope = -4/2

slope = -2

The y-intercept occurs when x = 0. For x = 0, y = 3, so the y-intercept is 3 which means the point (0, 3).

Answer: D. The slope is -2. The y-intercept is (0,3)
