Ricardo and John start swimming from the same location. Ricardo starts 15 seconds before John and
swims at a rate of 3 feet per second. John swims at a rate of 4 feet per second in the same direction as
Ricardo. Which equation could you solve to find how long it will take John to catch up with Ricardo?
Does anyone know the answer?

Ricardo And John Start Swimming From The Same Location. Ricardo Starts 15 Seconds Before John Andswims

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

t = (t₁ · vr)/ (vj - vr) = 45 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial time from Ricardo  t₁ = 15 seconds, Ricardo's velocity (speed) vr = 3 ft/s,

John's velocity (speed) vj = 4 ft/s

Requested time when John catch Ricardo t = ?

During 15 seconds, Ricardo moved away

S = vr · t₁ = 3 ft/s · 15 s = 45 feet.

From that moment, the same time runs for both of them

Ricardo's path is S₁ = vr · t  and John's path is S₂ = vj · t

S + S₁ = S₂ =>  S = S₂ - S₁  => 45 = vj · t - vr · t  

When we draw t we get:

t ( vj - vr) = 45   t = 45 / (vj - vr) = 45 / (4 - 3) = 45 / 1 = 45 seconds

t = 45 seconds

S₁ = vr · t = 3 · 45 = 135 ft

S₂ = vj · t = 4 · 45 = 180 ft

What is the solution to the equation below? ​

Answers

Answer:

The solutions are (2,0) and (3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The common denominator is (x - 2)(x - 4) which comes to x^2 - 6x + 8 which is exactly what the denominator on the right hand side is.

2x (x - 4) - (x+3)(x - 2)      =    - 4x

=============                   ========

(x -2)(x - 4)                            x^2 - 6x - 8

Multiply both sides by x^2 -6x - 8

2x(x - 4) - (x^2 + x - 6 ) = - 4x       Remove the brackets

2x^2 - 8x - x^2 - x + 6  = - 4x       Combine like terms on the left

2x^2 - x^2 - 8x - x + 6 =  - 4x

x^2 - 9x + 6 = - 4x                        Add 4x from both sides

x^2 - 9x + 4x + 6 = 0

x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0

This factors into

(x - 2) and (x - 3)

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

x - 3  = 0

x = 3

a cylindrical pipe made of metal 3 m long is 3 cm if the internal radius of the pipe is 10 cm what is the volume of metal used in making the pipe​

Answers

Answer:

857.766cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Lenght = 3m

Internal radius r = 3m

External radius R= 10m

Volume of pipe= πr^2h

Volume of metal= External - Internal

Volume= πR^2h-πr^2h

Volume= πh(R^2-r^2)

Volume= 3.142*3(10^2-3^2)

Volume= 3.142*3(100-9)

Volume= 9.426*(91)

Volume= 857.766cm^3

Hence the volume of the metal is 857.766cm^3

The number of birdhouses Ben can make varies directly with the amount of time he spends making the birdhouses. He can make 4 birdhouses in 1 1/2 hours. How many birdhouses can he make in 9 hours?

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

if he can make 4 birdhouses in 1 1/2 hours, 1 1/2 hours x 2 = 3. 8 birdhouses per 3 hours. 3 x 3 = 9 hours, 8 x 3 = 27

Answer:

24 birdhouses

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportional relationship.  y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.  We can determine k as follows:

4 birdhouses = k(1 1/2  hours), which leads to:

  4 birdhouses

------------------------- = 8/3 birdhouses/hr

    3/2 hours

In 9 hours, Ben can make (8/3)(9) birdhouses:  24 birdhouses

The solid triangular prism shown below is made from metal . The prism is melted down and the metal is used to create a solid cube. Find the side length of the cube. For the triangle, the base is 9cm, Height is 4cm, and Length is 12cm.

Answers

Answer:

6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

base is 9cm, Height is 4cm, and Length is 12cm.

Volume of triangular prism :

V = 1/2 * base * height * length

V = 1/2 * 9 * 4 * 12

V = 9 * 2 * 12

V = 216 cm³

Volume of a cube = a³

Where , a = side length

If 216cm³ is melted to form a cube

Then ;

a = 216^1/3

a = 6 cm

Find the slope by rearranging the equation into y = mx + b form, where m is the slope.

2x + 4y = -16

Subtract 2x from both sides:

4y = -2x - 16

Divide each side by 4:

y = -1/2x - 4
