Santos went on a bike ride of 90 miles. He realized that if he had gone 24 mph faster, he would have
arrived 12 hours sooner. How fast did he actually ride?


Need an answer fast

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  6 mph

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

Explanation:

distance = rate*time

90 = r*t

where r is the slower speed and t is the time it takes when going that slower speed.

If r is bumped up 24 mph faster, to r+24, then Santos takes t-12 hours to get there. The second equation is

90 = (r+24)(t-12)

-------------------------------------

We can solve the first equation for r to get r = 90/t

Then plug this into the second equation and do a bit of algebra

90 = (r+24)(t-12)

90 = (90/t+24)*(t-12)

90 = 90 - 1080/t + 24t - 288

90t = 90t - 1080 + 24t^2 - 288t

0 = 90t - 1080 + 24t^2 - 288t-90t

0 = 24t^2 - 288t - 1080

24t^2 - 288t - 1080 = 0

If you apply the quadratic formula, then you should get the two solutions t = -3 and t = 15. Due to time constraints, I'll skip these steps.

We'll ignore the negative t value. It makes no sense to have a negative time.

So we focus on t = 15 as the only solution.

-------------------------------------

If t = 15, then,

r = 90/t

r = 90/15

r = 6

Santos rode his bike at 6 mph at first. Going this speed means he takes 15 hours.

If he rode 24 mph faster, at 6+24 = 30 mph, then he would ride for 15-12 = 3 hours instead. Note that 90/30 = 3.

Write the equation of a circle that has a center of (-3, 4) and goes through the point (2, 1).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the left side of the equation for a circle easily enough. It's r^2 that's the problem. It is on the right.

Left Side

(x + 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = r^2

Right Side.

x1 = - 3

x2 = 2

y1 = 4

y2 = 1

Use the distance formula to get r^2

r^2 = (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

r^2 = (2 - - 3)^2 + (1 - 4)^2

r^2 = 5^2 + (-3)^2

r^2 = 25 + 9

r^2 = 34

Answer

(x + 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 34

Let us set it up as a fraction.

[tex]\frac{\frac{11}{3}}{1}=3\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{x}[/tex]

Step 1: Divide the given values

Step 2: Multiply the result by the other value

[tex]3\frac{3}{4} \\\\3\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{11}{3}\\\\= 13\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

So, with this solution, the answer is [tex]13\frac{1}{4}[/tex]. However, the answer isn't included in the options provided, so that means the answer is 5 cups.

A television shop sold a set for $799. It made a profit of $ 245.25. How much did the shop buy the television for ?

Answers

Answer:

the shop originally bought the television for $553.75

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because if they sold it for $799 and made a profit of $245.25 then you would subtract the profit from the price the TV sold for and you get $553.75

Minus $799 with $245.25 then you will get the answer.

Explanation: If it’s $0.03 for every hour and there is only 11.14 hours used a day just multiply 11.14 by .03 and you get .3342 then you move the decimal over 2 spaces to get 33.42

What are the solutions to the system of equations?

y=2x−3
Enter your answers in the boxes.
(_,_) and (_,_)

Answers

Answer:

(0, - 3 ) and (- 1, - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 4x² + 6x - 3 → (1)

y = 2x - 3 → (2)

Substitute y = 4x² + 6x - 3 into (2)

4x² + 6x - 3 = 2x - 3 ( subtract 2x - 3 from both sides )

4x² + 4x = 0 ← factor out 4x from each term

4x(x + 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

4x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Substitute these values into (2) for corresponding values of y

x = 0 : y = 2(0) - 3 = 0 - 3 = - 3 ⇒ (0, - 3 )

x = - 1 : y = 2(- 1) - 3 = - 2 - 3 = - 5 ⇒ (- 1, - 5 )

There are 3 oranges, 8 peaches, and 4 apples in a fruit basket. David selected one piece of fruit at random. He was hungry and ate that fruit. He then selected a second piece of fruit. What is the probability that he selects two peaches?

Answers

Answer:

Probabilty[First and second fruit is peach without replacement] = 0.267 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of oranges = 3

Number of peach = 8

Number of apple = 4

Find:

Probabilty[First and second fruit is peach without replacement]

Computation:

Probablity of an event = Number of favourable outcomes / Number of outcomes

Probabilty[First fruit is peach] = 8 / [3 + 8 + 4]

Probabilty[First fruit is peach] = 8 / 15

Probabilty[Second fruit is peach] = [8-1] / [3 + 8 + 4 - 1]

Probabilty[Second fruit is peach] = 7 / 14

Probabilty[Second fruit is peach] = 1 / 2

Probabilty[First and second fruit is peach without replacement] = Probabilty[First fruit is peach] x Probabilty[Second fruit is peach]

Probabilty[First and second fruit is peach without replacement] = [8/15][1/2]

Probabilty[First and second fruit is peach without replacement] = 8 / 30

Probabilty[First and second fruit is peach without replacement] = 0.267 (Approx.)

An amount of $16,000 is borrowed for 8 years at 7.25% interest, compounded annually. If the loan is paid in full at the end of that period, how much must be paid back?

Answers

Answer:

$28009.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the formula A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

Step 1: Convert 7.25 to decimal

[tex]7.25\% = 0.0725[/tex] in decimal form

Step 1: Percent means 'per 100'. So, 7.25% means 7.25 per 100 or simply 7.25 over 100. [tex]7.25 \div 100\\\\= \frac{7.25}{100}\\\\= 0.0725[/tex] If you divide 7.25 by 100, you'll get 0.0725 (a decimal number).

Step 2: Solve with the formula

[tex]A = 16000(1 + 0.0725)^8\\\\A= 28009.05[/tex]

Step 1: Add the numbers: [tex]1+0.0725=1.0725[/tex][tex]=16000\cdot \:1.0725^8[/tex][tex]=16000\cdot \:1.75056[/tex]Step2: Multiply[tex]=28009.05068[/tex]

R of breaths of all people in asia in 2016? Expressing your answer in scinentific notation in the form a *10^(b) what are the values of a and b?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Express the answer in [tex]a * 10^b[/tex]

From the question, we have:

[tex]People = 4.46 * 10^9[/tex]

[tex]Breath = 8.4 * 10^6[/tex] breath/person in a year

The number of breath is calculated by:

[tex]Overall = People * Breath[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Overall = 4.46 * 10^9 * 8.4 * 10^6[/tex]

Reorder

[tex]Overall = 4.46 * 8.4* 10^9 * 10^6[/tex]

[tex]Overall = 37.464* 10^{9+6}[/tex]

[tex]Overall = 37.464* 10^{15}[/tex]

Using scientific notation [tex]a * 10^b[/tex];

The value (a) must be in the following interval [tex]0 \le a \le 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Overall = 3.7464 * 10 * 10^{15[/tex]

[tex]Overall = 3.7464 * 10^{16[/tex]

By comparing the above with: [tex]a * 10^b[/tex]

[tex]a = 3.7464[/tex]

[tex]b = 16[/tex]
