A fisherman rows up stream at 4mph and downstream at 6mph. He started rowing upstream until he got tired and then rowed downstream to his starting point. How far did the fisherman row in the whole trip in 7 hours?

Answers

Answer 1
4 miles = 1 hour upstream
6 miles = 1 hour downstream

In seven hours: 4mi (7hr) = 28mi upstream + 6mi (7hr) = 42mi downstream
Added together: 28+42=70mi total.
Answer 2

By setting the upstream and downstream distances equal and solving for the time rowed upstream, we find that the fisherman rowed 4.2 hours upstream and 2.8 hours downstream. Since he rowed back to his starting point, the total distance rowed upstream and downstream is the same, amounting to 33.6 miles for the entire trip.

To solve this problem, we need to determine how much time the fisherman spent rowing upstream and downstream. Let's call the upstream speed U, which is 4 mph, and the downstream speed D, which is 6 mph. He rows for a total of 7 hours. Let's call the time spent rowing upstream T and the time spent rowing downstream (7 - T) since the entire trip takes 7 hours.

Since distance equals rate times time, the upstream distance will be U × T and the downstream distance will be D × (7 - T). Because the fisherman returns to his starting point, the upstream and downstream distances are equal.

Setting them equal gives us the equation:
4T = 6 (7 - T)

Solving for T gives us:
T = 42 / 10 = 4.2 hours

Hence, the time spent rowing downstream is 7 - 4.2 = 2.8 hours.

To find the total distance rowed, we use the downstream distance (since it's equal to the upstream distance) which is calculated as:
Distance = D × (7 - T) = 6 × 2.8 = 16.8 miles

Therefore, the fisherman rowed a total of 16.8 miles upstream and 16.8 miles downstream, summing up to 33.6 miles for the entire trip.

Three water pipes are used to fill a swimming pool. The 1st pipe alone takes 8 hours to fill the pool, the 2nd pipe alone takes 12 hours to fill the pool, and the 3rd pipe takes 24 hours to fill the pool. If all 3 pipes are opened at the same time, how long will it take all 3 together to fill the pool?

Answers

For 4 h. The first pipe fills the whole pool for 8 hours so from here we see that it fills 1/8 each hour. The second pipe fills it for 12 hours so it fills 1/12 each hour. The third pipe fills it for 24 hours so it fills 1/24 each hour. Now the three of them together fill 1/8 + 1/12 + 1/24 of the pool each hour. That equals: 1st pipe 3/24 of the pool each hour, the 2nd pipe 2/24 of the pool each hour and the 3rd 1/24 each hour. So, the three pipes together fill 3/24 + 2/24 + 1/24 each hour. That's 6/24 of the pool each hour.
1st hour: 6/24
2nd hour: 12/24
3rd hour: 18/24
4th hour: 24/24

A standard deck of 52 playing cards contains 13 cards in each of four suits: diamonds, hearts, clubs, and spades. Two cards are chosen from the deck at random. What is the approximate probability of choosing one club and one heart?

Answers

The approximate probability of choosing one club followed by one heart from a standard deck of 52 playing cards is 5.9%.

The student's question pertains to the calculation of the probability of choosing one club and one heart from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. We start by recognizing that there are 13 clubs and 13 hearts in the deck, with each of the four suits represented equally.

Firstly, the probability of choosing a club (P(club)) is 13/52. After a club is chosen, there are 51 cards left in the deck. The number of hearts remains the same at 13 (since a club was chosen first). So, the probability of then picking a heart (P(heart)) is 13/51.

The two events, choosing a club and then a heart, are dependent events because the outcome of the second event depends on the outcome of the first. Hence, to find the combined probability, we multiply the probabilities of each event.

The probability of choosing one club followed by one heart is therefore P(club)  imes P(heart) = (13/52)  imes (13/51), which simplifies to approximately 0.059, or 5.9%.

Sarah is driving her car very smoothly from

travelling at 20 mph, while 25 minutes later
she is travelling at 40 mph.
Calculus tells us that at some time between
6:00 pm and and 6:25 pm her acceleration is
exactly x mph/h. Determine x.

Answers

Final answer:

The acceleration (x) is approximately 48 mph/hr, determined by dividing the change in velocity (20 mph) by the change in time (0.41667 hr).

Explanation:

The subject of this problem is acceleration, which in this context refers to the rate at which Sarah increased her speed during a particular period of time. Here, the change in speed was from 20 mph to 40 mph, a difference of 20 mph. The time over which this change occurred was 25 minutes, but since acceleration is usually measured in hours, we need to convert this to 25/60 = 0.4167 hours.

The formula for acceleration is change in speed/ change in time.

Therefore, to calculate the acceleration, we divide the change in speed (20 mph) by the time (0.4167 hr) to get x = 20 mph / 0.4167 hr = 47.99 mph/hr or approximately 48 mph/hr, which is the acceleration.

a 14 foot ladder is leaning against a building. the ladder makes a 45 degree angle with the building. how far up the building does the ladder reach?

Answers

The answer is 9.9 ft.

Imagine that the ladder is a hypotenuse of a right triangle (since ground and the building form a right angle). The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. If we have:
90° + 45° + x° = 180°
135° + x = 180°
x = 45°

Since two angles are the same this is isosceles triangle a = b.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
a² + b² = c²
a = b
a² + a² = c²
2a² = c²

c = 14 ft
2a² = 14²
2a² = 196
a² = 196/2 = 98
a = √98 ≈ 9.9 ft

Using the sine function and known angle and ladder length, the distance up the building the ladder reaches is \(7\sqrt{2}\) feet.

The correct answer is option C) \(7\sqrt{2}\) feet.

To find how far up the building the ladder reaches, we can use trigonometric functions, specifically the sine function since we have the angle and the length of the ladder.

Given:

- Length of the ladder (hypotenuse) = 14 feet

- Angle with the building = 45 degrees

Let [tex]\(x\)[/tex]be the distance up the building that the ladder reaches.

Using the sine function [tex](\(\sin\))[/tex] in a right triangle:

[tex]\[ \sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} \][/tex]

Substituting the known values:

[tex]\[ \sin(45^\circ) = \frac{x}{14} \][/tex]

Since [tex]\(\sin(45^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\),[/tex] we have:

[tex]\[ \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = \frac{x}{14} \][/tex]

To solve for [tex]\(x\),[/tex] multiply both sides by 14:

[tex]\[ x = 14 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ x = 7\sqrt{2} \, \text{feet} \][/tex]

Therefore, the ladder reaches [tex]\(7\sqrt{2}\)[/tex] feet up the building.

Therefore the correct answer is option C) [tex]\(7\sqrt{2}\)[/tex]feet.

The question probable may be:

A 14 foot ladder is leaning against a building. The ladder makes a 45 degree angle with the building. How far up the building does the ladder reach?

B. 28sqrt(2) feet

Final answer:

To solve the equation log2 (x) + log2(x+7) = 3, you can combine the logarithmic terms using the property log(a) + log(b) = log(a*b). By applying this property and solving the resulting quadratic equation, we find that x = 1.

Explanation:

To solve the equation log2 (x) + log2(x+7) = 3, we need to combine the logarithmic terms using the property log(a) + log(b) = log(a*b). Applying this property, we get log2 (x*(x+7)) = 3. Next, we can rewrite this equation in exponential form as 2^3 = x * (x+7). Simplifying further, we have 8 = x^2 + 7x. Rearranging the equation, we get a quadratic equation x^2 + 7x - 8 = 0. Solving this quadratic equation, we find that x = -8 or x = 1. However, since the logarithm of a negative number is undefined, the solution is x = 1.

What is the total impedance of the circuit?

Answers

Total impedance of circuit is Z1 + Z2

Here it is important that real numbers we sum with real numbers and complex numbers with complex numbers

Let Zs represent total impedance.

Zs = Z1 + Z2 = 3 + 4i + 5 - 2i = 3 + 5 + 4i - 2i = 8 + 2i

Answer is :

8+2i
Final answer:

The total impedance of the circuit is 8 + 2i.

Explanation:

The total impedance in a series circuit is the sum of the individual impedances. To find the total impedance of the circuit, add the real parts and imaginary parts separately. In this case, Z1 = 3 + 4i and Z2 = 5 - 2i. So, the total impedance Zt = (3 + 5) + (4 - 2)i. Simplifying this, Zt = 8 + 2i.
