If the current in a stream moves at a rate of 7 mph. If a boat travels 98 miles downstream in the same time that it takes to travel 49 miles upstream then the speed of the boat in still water is 21 miles per hour.

Speed is the distance covered by an object in a certain time period. It is also known as velocity. The formula of speed is as follows:

Speed=Distance/ Time.

We have been given that the speed of stream is 7miles per hour.

Let v be the speed of the boat, and t the time to travel

98=t*(7+v) (1)

49=t(v-7) (2)

(1)+(2) => 2tv=147

7t+(49+7t)=98

14t+49=98

14t=49

t=49/14

t=7/2

Put the value of t in equation 1 to get the value of v:

98=t(7+v)

98=7/2(7+v)

196/7=7+v

28=7+v

v=28-7

v=21

Hence if the current in a stream moves at a rate of 7 mph. If a boat travels 98 miles downstream in the same time that it takes to travel 49 miles upstream then the speed of the boat in still water is 21 miles per hour.

Answer: 0.18

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of the event P(A and B) is equal to 0.18.

The correct option is (C).

A random event's occurrence is the subject of this area of mathematics. The range of the value is 0 to 1. Probability has been introduced in Arithmetic to forecast how likely occurrences are to happen.

As per the given data:

We are given the probability of two events:

P(A) = 0.60 and P(B) = 0.30

We are also given that A and B are independent events.

To find the probability of P(A and B):

The term and is equivalent to the term intersection.

P(A and B) = P(A∩B)

For any 2 independent events A and B the probability P(A∩B) is given by:

= P(A) × P(B)

By substituting the given values in the question

= 0.60 × 0.30

= 0.18

The probability of the event P(A and B) is equal to 0.18.

Hence, The probability of the event P(A and B) is equal to 0.18.

where

opposite side = height

adjacent side = 35 inches

Therefore,

Let the number of boys originally  at the stop = 'x'

Ratio of boys to girls:

-2x = 14 - 10

-2x = 4

x = 4/-2

x = -2

4x - 5 = -8

4x = -8 + 5

4x = -3

x = -3/4

x = -0.75

(x + 3) / 5 = -2

x + 3 = -2(5)

x + 3 = -10

x = -10 - 3

x = -13

1/2x + 4 = -1

1/2x = -1 - 4

1/2x = -5

x = -5 ÷ 1/2

The number of months until the insect population reaches 40 thousand is 14.29 months and the limiting factor on the insect population as time progresses is 250 thousands.

Given that population P(t) (in thousands) of insects in t months after being transplanted is P(t)=(50(1+0.05t))/(2+0.01t).

(a) Firstly, we will find the number of months until the insect population reaches 40 thousand by equating the given population expression with 40, we get

P(t)=40

(50(1+0.05t))/(2+0.01t)=40

Cross multiply both sides, we get

50(1+0.05t)=40(2+0.01t)

Apply the distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac, we get

50+2.5t=80+0.4t

Subtract 0.4t and 50 from both sides, we get

50+2.5t-0.4t-50=80+0.4t-0.4t-50

2.1t=30

Divide both sides with 2.1, we get

t=14.29 months

(b) Now, we will find the limiting factor on the insect population as time progresses by taking limit on both sides with t→∞, we get

[tex]\begin{aligned}\lim_{t \rightarrow \infty}P(t)&=\lim_{t \rightarrow \infty}\frac{50(1+0.05t)}{2+0.01t}\\ &=\lim_{t \rightarrow \infty}\frac{50(\frac{1}{t}+0.05)}{\frac{2}{t}+0.01}\\ &=50\times \frac{0.05}{0.01}\\ &=250\end[/tex]

(c) Further, we will sketch the graph of the function using the window 0≤t≤700 and 0≤p(t)≤700 as shown in the figure.

Hence, when the population P(t) (in thousands) of insects in t months after being transplanted by P(t)=(50(1+0.05t))/(2+0.01t) then the number of months until the insect population reaches 40 thousand 14.29 months and the limiting factor on the insect population is 250 thousand and the graph is shown in the figure.

As per definition of the exterior angle its measure is same as the sum of remote interior angles:

The exponential growth function is P(t) = 6.38 million x (1.0238^t).

The population of the city in 2018 is 7.35 million.

The year the population would be 9 million is 14.46 years.

The doubling time is 29.12 years.

FV = P (1 + r)^n

6.38 million x (1.0238^t)

Population in 2018 = 6.38 million x (1.0238^6) = 7.35 million

Number of years when population would be 9 million : (In FV / PV) / r

The point of intersection of both graphs will have the coordinate (5, 9).

We are given the functions;

f(x) = x + 4

g(x) = -2x + 19

Now, the point of intersection of both graphs is when both functions are equal which is at f(x) = g(x). Thus;

x + 4 = -2x + 19

x + 2x = 19 - 4

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Answer:

The small piece is 6 yards and the large piece is 8 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x  = small

Let y = large

x + y = 14       3y = 4x

3y = 4x  Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for y

y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x  Plug [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x in for y in the first equation above.

x + y = 14

x + [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x = 14  x and 1 x mean the same thing.  Another name for 1 is [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex]x + [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]x = 14

[tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex]x = 14  Multiple both sides by [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex] to solve for x

([tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex])([tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex]x) = 14([tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex]) you can write 14 as [tex]\frac{14}{1}[/tex]([tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex]) = [tex]\frac{42}{7}[/tex]= 6

x = 6

If x = 6, then y must be 8 because 6 + 8 = 14
