A North American river otter wants to cross the North Saskatchewan river. It can swim at a speed of 2.75 m/s. In that location, the distance directly across the river is 45.0 m and the current velocity is 2.5 m/s. a) How much time does the otter take to get to the other side, if it points directly across the river?

b) How many metres downstream will the current have carried the otter when it gets to the other side?

c) Calculate the otter's velocity, relative to the bank from where it started.

Which polynomial function has x intercepts -1, 0, and 2 and passes through the point (1, -6)

Which situation can be modeled by the inequality 5 + 10w ≥ 45? a. you start with $5 and save $10 a week until you have at least $45. b.you start with 5 baseball cards and purchase 10 cards every week until you have at most 45 cards. c.you start with 5 water bottles and purchases cases of 10 water bottles each until you have a total of 45 water bottles. d.you spend $5 plus $10 per week until you have less than $45.

Suppose that 3% of all athletes are using the endurance-enhancing hormone epo (you should be able to simply compute the percentage of all athletes that are not using epo). for our purposes, a “positive” test result is one that indicates presence of epo in an athlete’s bloodstream. the probability of a positive result, given the presence of epo is .99. the probability of a negative result, when epo is not present, is .90. what is the probability that a randomly selected athlete tests positive for epo? 0.0297
