57 = 7 + 2x
50 = 2x
x = 25
x being the number of pages read last week
Hope this helps a little!!
only the first statement is true - it is the experimental probability. the rest is incorrect: the ratio is not the number of trials; the theoretical probability should be 0.5 (for unbiased coins); ratio never represents a number of occurences.
Answer:
4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The average speed of an object is given by the total distance covered by the time taken:
where
d is the total distance covered
t is the time taken
in the first part, the person runs for 0.4 hours at a speed of 7 mph, so the distance covered in the 1st part is
Then the distance covered in the second part is , so the total distance is
(1)
The total time elapsed is 0.4 hours (first part) + 0.8 hours (second part), so
So we can write the average speed as
(1)
We want the average speed to be 5 mph,
v = 5 mph
Therefore we can rearrange eq.(1) to find d2:
And therefore, the speed in the second part must be
