Duration = distance ÷ velocity
duration = (5 1/5) ÷ (8 2/3)
duration = (26/5) ÷ (26/3)
        = 26/5 × 3/26
        = 3/5 of an hour <===

Answer:

The total time is 36 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find distance, we use the formula that combines speed and time.  ( this is valid for constant speed )

Distance=speed* time

Our goal is to determine time.

Time can be found by dividing distance by speed.

Distance= 5 1/5 miles=5.20

Speed=8 2/3 miles=8.66

T=5.20/8.66666=0.60

Since 1 hour equals 60 minutes,

T=0.60/60 minutes=36 minutes

Svet_ta [12734]

We start with the following information:

p = probability = 0.12<span>
n = total number of students = 39 </span>

x = number of left-handers = 5<span>
u = mean = p * n = 4.68
σ = standard deviation = √(n*p*(1-p)) = √(39 * 0.12 * 0.88) = 2.03</span>

Finding the z score:

z = (x – u) / σ

<span> z = (5 – 4.68) / 2.03
</span>

z = 0.1576 = 0.16

<span>

</span>Applying standard tables for z gives the p value as:

p value = 0.5636 = 56.36%

 

Consequently, there is a 56.36% probability.

PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

refer to the method

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that

1\ ft=12\ in

To change feet to inches, multiply by 12

1\ min=60\ sec

To convert minutes into seconds, multiply by 60

we have

500\frac{ft}{min}=500(\frac{12}{60})=500(\frac{1}{5})=100\frac{in}{sec}
