A certain analog clock runs fast and gains 5 minutes every 8 hours. It was set to show the correct time. What is the shortest interval of time after which the clock will show the correct time again?
Answer:
1152 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
It doesn’t mention that it has AM or PM, so we’re assuming that it’s just the same time, regardless if the clocks actually shows the wrong time in am/pm-wise.
So, if it gains 5 minutes every 8 hours, we have to make see how many 5-minutes that we need to make 12 hours. 12 hours is equal to 720 minutes, so 720/5=144. Since it asks how many hours we need for it to become the same time again, we need to add the fact that it only adds 5 minutes every 8 hours. Henceforth, we need to multiply our answer (144) by 8 hours. 144*8=1152. Your answer is 1152 hours.

The shortest interval of time after which the clock will show the correct time again is 144 hours.
Given that a certain analog clock runs fast and gains 5 minutes every 8 hours, and it was set to show the correct time, to determine what is the shortest interval of time after which the clock will show the correct time again the following calculation must be done:
A clock has a duration of 12 hours, that is, it makes a full turn in that time. Thus, the advance time must be 12 hours for the marked time to be correct.
5 minutes = 1/12 hour 12 hours = 1 hour in advance 12 x 12 = X 144 = X
Therefore, the shortest interval of time after which the clock will show the correct time again is 144 hours.

A retail study by Deloitte revealed that 54% of adults surveyed believed that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned. Suppose 41% of adults regularly recycle aluminum cans and believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned. In addition, suppose that 60% of adults who do not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned do recycle. If an adult is randomly selected,
a. What is the probability that the adult recycles and does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned?
b. What is the probability that the adult does recycle?
c. What is the probability that the adult does recycle or does believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned?
d. What is the probability that the adult does not recycle or does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned?
e. What is the probability that the adult does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned given that the adult does recycle?
Answer:
a) 27.6%
b) 68.6%
c) 81.6%
d) 59.0%
e) 40.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say R = recycles, and B = believes bags should be banned.
We're given the following probabilities:
P(B) = 0.54
P(R and B) = 0.41
P(R given NOT B) = 0.60
a. Use conditional probability:
P(R given NOT B) = P(R and NOT B) / P(NOT B)
0.60 = P(R and NOT B) / (1 − 0.54)
P(R and NOT B) = 0.276
b. P(R) = P(R and B) + P(R and NOT B)
P(R) = 0.41 + 0.276
P(R) = 0.686
c. P(R or B) = P(R) + P(B) − P(R and B)
P(R or B) = 0.686 + 0.54 − 0.41
P(R or B) = 0.816
d. P(NOT R or NOT B) = 1 − P(R and B)
P(NOT R or NOT B) = 1 − 0.41
P(NOT R or NOT B) = 0.59
e. P(NOT B given R) = P(NOT B and R) / P(R)
P(NOT B given R) = 0.276 / 0.686
P(NOT B given R) = 0.402
Using conditional probability, it is found that:
a) 0.276 = 27.6% probability that the adult recycles and does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
b) 0.686 = 68.6% probability that the adult does recycle.
c) 0.816 = 81.6% probability that the adult does recycle or does believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
d) 0.59 = 59% probability that the adult does not recycle or does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
e) 0.402 = 40.2% probability that the adult does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned given that the adult does recycle.
-----------------------------------
Conditional probability:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened. [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening. P(A) is the probability of A happening.Item a:
Event A: Bags should not be banned.
Event B: Recycle.
54% believe shopping bags should be banned, thus 46% believe that it should not be banned, and [tex]P(A) = 0.46[/tex].Of those, 60% recycle, thus [tex]P(B|A) = 0.6[/tex].We want [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex].[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B|A) = 0.46(0.6) = 0.276[/tex]
0.276 = 27.6% probability that the adult recycles and does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
Item b:
First, we have to find the proportion that recycle, given that they believe bags should be banned. Thus:
Event A: Believe bags should be banned.Event B: Recycle.54% of adults surveyed believed that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
Thus [tex]P(A) = 0.54[/tex].
41% of adults regularly recycle aluminum cans and believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
Thus P(A \cap B) = 0.41[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.41}{0.54} = 0.7592[/tex]
The probability that recycle is the sum of:
60% of 46%(do not believe bags should be banned)75.92% of 54%(believe bags should be banned).Then:
[tex]p = 0.6(0.46) + 0.7592(0.54) = 0.686[/tex]
0.686 = 68.6% probability that the adult does recycle.
Item c:
Sum of:
Recycle(68.6%).Do not recycle but believe bags should be banned(24.08% of 54%).Thus:
[tex]p = 0.686 + 0.2408(0.54) = 0.816[/tex]
0.816 = 81.6% probability that the adult does recycle or does believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
Item d:
Sum of:
Do not recycle(31.4%).Recycle but does not believe bags should be banned(27.6%).Thus:
[tex]p = 0.314 + 0.276 = 0.59[/tex]
0.59 = 59% probability that the adult does not recycle or does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned.
Item e:
Event A: Recycle.Event B: Believes should not be banned.68.6% recycle, thus [tex]P(A) = 0.686[/tex]27.6% recycle and believe bags should not be banned, thus [tex]P(A cap B) = 0.276[/tex]Then
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.276}{0.686} = 0.402[/tex]
0.402 = 40.2% probability that the adult does not believe that plastic, noncompostable shopping bags should be banned given that the adult does recycle.

A box of books weighs 4.10 kg for every meter of it's height. Convert this ratio into pounds per foot.
Answer:
The ratio is k = 2.76 pounds / foot
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
For 1 m height => 4.10 kg mass
generally 1 meter = 3.28084 feet
Also
1 kg = 2.20462 pound
4.10 kg = x pounds
So
[tex]x = \frac{4.10 * 2.20462}{1 }[/tex]
=> [tex]x = 9.04 \ pounds[/tex]
So
9.04 pounds = 3.28084 feet
z pounds = 1 foot
So
[tex]z = \frac{ 9.04 * 1 }{ 3.28084}[/tex]
=> z = 2.76 pounds
So the ratio is in pounds per foot is
k = 2.76 pounds / foot

Well, it's a square, a rhombus and a rectangle.
In geometry, a square is a regular quadrilateral, which means that it has four equal sides and four equal angles (90-degree angles, or 100-gradian angles or right angles). It can also be defined as a rectangle in which two adjacent sides have equal length.
A rhombus is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length.

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to y=-4x+2 and goes through (0,7)
Answer: y=-4x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a parallel line, we know that the slope must be the same because parallel lines NEVER touch or cross. All we have to do is use the given point to find the y-intercept.
y=-4x+b
7=-4(0)+b [multiply]
b=7
Now, we know that the final equation is y=-4x+7.
Answer:
The answer is
y = - 4x + 7Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line is y = mx + c
where
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line
The original line is y = - 4x + 2
Comparing with the general equation above
Slope / m = - 4
Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same
Slope of parallel line = - 4
So the equation of the line using point (0,7) and slope - 4 is
[tex]y - 7 = - 4(x - 0) \\ y - 7 = - 4x[/tex]
We have the final answer as
y = - 4x + 7Hope this helps you

Find the value of x such that l ⊥ m. A) 10.7 B) 16 C) 46 D) 48
Answer:
B. 16°Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram lacks the appropriate figure. Find the figure attached. If the line I is perpendicular to m, this means that the sum of the given angles will be equal to 90° as shown;
(3x+5)° + 37° = 90°
open the parenthesis
3x+5 + 37° = 90°
3x+42 = 90
subtract 42 from both sides of the equation
3x+42-42 = 90-42
3x = 48
Divide both sides of the resulting equation by 3;
3x/3 = 48/3
x = 16
Hence the value of x is 16°
