Two cars are traveling at 40 and 50 miles per hour, respectively. If the second cars out 5 miles behind the first car. How long will it take the second car to overtake the first car.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Hello There,


distance = rate x time 
5 + 40x = 50x 
5 = 10x 
x = 1/2 hr

Hope this helps

Answers

The supplement of <DCE is <ACE, remember, a supplementary pair is a pair of two angles whose sum of degrees sums up to 180 degrees.

The verticle angle to <BCD is <ACF. A verticle angle is formed when two lines intersect, there are four angles formed, the verticle angles are the angles opposite to each other, and verticle angles are congruent.

Brawdy Plastics, Inc., produces plastic seat belt retainers for General Motors at the Brawdy Plastics plant in Buffalo, New York. After final assembly and painting, the parts are placed on a conveyor belt that moves the parts past a final inspection station. How fast the parts move past the final inspection station depends upon the line speed of the conveyor belt (feet per minute). Although faster line speeds are desirable, management is concerned that increasing the line speed too much may not provide enough time for inspectors to identify which parts are actually defective. To test this theory, Brawdy Plastics conducted an experiment in which the same batch of parts, with a known number of defective parts, was inspected using a variety of line speeds. The following data were collected. If required, enter negative values as negative numbers.
Line Speed Devective number
20 23
20 21
30 19
30 16
40 15

a. Select a scatter diagram with the line speed as the independent variable.b. What does the scatter diagram developed in part (a) indicate about the relationship between the two variables?

Answers

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Scatter diagram

The scatter diagram is the figure below.

(b) Interpretation

The scatter diagram shows there is a linear relationship between the variables.

The defective number decreases as the line speed increases.

The inspectors miss more faulty parts when the line speed increases, so they report fewer of them.

Calculate 188 meters___________Yards

Answers

Answer:

205.599

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

205.599 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

1 meter = 1.09361 yards

Multiply 188 meters by 1.09361 yards

188 meters = (1.09361 yards) x (188 meters)

                   = 205.599 yards

Least number by which 1375 is divided to get a perfect sqaure

Answers

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

1375 = 5 * 5 * 5 * 11 \n  =  {5}^(2)  * 55 \n

Here 5 is squared and 55 is not.

Hence, the answer is 55

People who eat lots of fruits and vegetables have lower rates of colon cancer than those who eat little of these foods. Fruits and vegetables are rich in "antioxidants" such as vitamins A, C, and E. Will taking antioxidants help prevent colon cancer? A medical experiment studied this question with 864 people who were at risk of colon cancer. The subjects were divided into four groups: daily beta-carotene, daily vitamins C and E, all three vitamins every day, or daily placebo. After four years, the researchers were surprised to find no significant difference in colon cancer among the groups(a) What are the explanatory and response variables in this experiment?(b) Outline the design of the experiment. Use your judgment in choosing the group sizes.(c) The study was double-blind. What does this mean?(d) What does "no significant difference" mean in describing the outcome of the study?(e) Suggest some lurking variables that could explain why people who eat lots of fruits and vegetables have lower rates of colon cancer. The experiment suggests that these variables, rather than the antioxidants, may be responsible for the observed benefits of fruits and vegetables.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). The explanatory variables are the antioxidant group, the response variable is the result of the rate of colon cancer

(b)The design of the experiment is stratified Random sampling. I'll suggest there divided into equal group of 216 each.

(c). Double blind is when the people subjected to the experiment are not in the know if they're given placebo or the real antioxidant

(d) No significant difference mean, there is no convincing relationship that those that engage in using antioxidant have reduced colon cancer rate.

(e) Awareness of its history in family, age also.

Eric ran 3 miles in 20 minutes. what is eric’s speed?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

speed=distance/time

20 minutes=1/3 hours

=3*3/1

=1miles/hour

Top answer is wrong it is
9miles per hour since 20 minute / 60 hour = 0.333333
D=s/t
D=3/0.33333
D=9 miles per second
