A bag contains 240 marbles that are either red, blue, or green. The ratio of red to blue to green marbles is 5:2:1. If one-third of the red marbles and two-thirds of the green marbles are removed, what fraction of the remaining marbles in the bag will be blue?

A. 6/17
B. 1/2
C. 6/13
D. 7/18

Answers

Answer 1

The fraction of the remaining marbles in the bag will be blue is 6/17.

What fraction of the remaining marbles in the bag will be blue?

The first step is to determine the initial number of marbles in the bag:

Initial number of red marbles in the bag : (5/8) x 240 = 150

Initial number of blue marbles in the bag : (2/8) x 240 = 60

Initial number of green marbles in the bag : 240 - 150 - 60 = 30

Number of red marbles remaining after 1/3 is removed = (1 - 1/3) x 150

2/3 x 150 = 100

Number of green marbles remaining after 2/3 is removed = (1 - 2/3) x 30

1/3 x 30 = 10

Total number of marbles now in the bag : 100 + 10 + 60 = 170

Fraction of blue marbles = 60 / 170 = 6/17

Which of the following points have a distance of five units between them? Select all that apply 

A.)(-2,5) and (3,7)
B.)(10,5) and (7,9)
C.)(1,10) and (6,5)
D.)(-4,-8) and (-4,-5)
E.)(2,-5) and (6,-8)

Answers

Answer:

C. (1, 10) and (6, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the point with a distance of 5 units.

Let the points be x and y.

x = x1 and x2

y = y1 and y2

x2 - x1 = 5 units

y2 - y1 = 5 units.

A quick look at the options, we can tell that the correct option is C.

From points (1, 10) and (6, 5)

x1 = 1, x2 = 6, y1 = 10 and y2 = 5

Substituting into the equation above, we have;

x2 - x1 = 6 - 1 = 5 units

y2 - y1 = 5 - 10 = -5 units.

Therefore, option C with points (1,10) and (6,5) have a distance of five units between them.

vending machine dispenses hot chocolate or coffee. Service time is 30 seconds per cup and is constant. Customers arrive at a mean rate of 80 per hour, and this rate is Poisson-distributed. Determine the following: a. The percentage of time the machine is busy b. The average number of customers waiting in line c. The average time customers spend in the system d. The average number in the system

Answers

Answer:

0.667 ;

0.667 customers ;

0.0166708 hour ;

1.334 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Service time (μ) = 30 seconds ; 2 customers per minute ; 2 * 60 = 120 customers per hour

Arrival time, λ = 80 customers per hour

a.) percentage of time machine is busy (p) ; Utilization factor :

P = λ/ μ = 80 / 120 = 0.667

b.) average number of customers waiting in line Li = p² / 2(1-p)

= 0.667² / 2(1-0.667) = 0.667 customers

c) Average time customer spend in the system = Li/λ + 1/μ

= (0.667 / 80) + (1 / 120)

0.0083375 + 0.0083333

= 0.0166708 hour

= 0.0166708 * 60 = 1.00025 minutes

D) average number in the system ;

Li + p

= 0.667 + 0.667 = 1.334 customers

A scientist wanted to measure the constant rate of the current in a particular section of the river. She released a tracker into the river. The tracker sent her back the following information:
After 3.5 seconds since the tracker was released into the river the tracker had traveled 5.5 meters.
After 10.9 seconds since the tracker was released into the river the tracker had traveled 16.5 meters.
What is the constant rate of the current?

Answers

Answer:

1.486m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is defined as the change in distance divided by the change in time

Rate = ∆distance/∆time

Distance = 16.5 and 5.5

Time = 10.9 and 3.5

When we put this into the formula above, we have:

Rate of change = 16.5 - 5.5 / 10.9 - 3.5

= 11/7.4

= 1.486m/s

The constant rate of change has been calculated to be equal to 1.486m/s

You can use the fact that the rate of the change of a value when some other independent value changes is the ratio of change in the dependent variable to the change in the independent variable.

The constant rate of the current is given by 1.4865 meters per second.

How to measure the rate of change of something as some other value changes?

Suppose that we have to measure the rate of change of y as x changes, then we have:

[tex]Rate = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

where we have

[tex]\rm when \: x=x_1, y = y_1\\when\: x = x_2, y= y_2[/tex]

Remember that, we divide by the change in independent variable so that we get some idea of how much the dependent quantity changes as we change the independent quantity by 1 unit.

(5 change per 3 unit can be rewritten as 5/3 change per 1 unit)

How to measure the constant rate of the current for the given situation?

The distance traveled by the tracker depends on the time passed.

Let the variable "t" tracks the amount of time passed and let the variable "d" tracks the distance traveled by the tracker, then we have:

[tex]\rm At \: t = t_1 = 3.5, d=d_1 = 5.5 \: m\\At \: t = t_2 = 10.9, d = d_2 = 16.5 \: m[/tex]

Thus, the constant rate of current is obtained by

[tex]Rate = \dfrac{d_2 - d_1}{t_2 - t_1} = \dfrac{16.5 - 5.5}{10.9 - 3.5} = \dfrac{11}{7.4} \\\\Rate \approx 1.4865 \: \text{meters per second}[/tex]


Thus,

The constant rate of the current is given by 1.4865 meters per second.

Answers

Answer:

-11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

slope for points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x,y)

(-12,15)

(0,4)

x1=-12

y1=15

x2=0

y2=4

slope=(4-15)/(0-(-12))=-11/(0+12)=-11/12

Answer:

Slope: -11/12x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept equation:

y = mx + b

(m = slope)

The formula for slope is below.

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }[/tex]

With your two points, you can accurately determine your slope.

(-12, 15) (0,4)

x1 = -12

y1 = 15

x2 = 0

y2 = 4

Apply this information in the slope formula to get:

[tex]\frac{4 - 15}{0 - -12}[/tex]

Change the 0 - -12 to 0 + 12

[tex]\frac{4 - 15}{0 + 12}[/tex]

4 - 15 = -11

0 + 12 = 12

Place -11 and 12 into a fraction.

[tex]\frac{-11}{12}[/tex] OR -11/12

Add "x" to the end from "mx" within the slope-intercept equation
