Suppose two bicyclists start at the same location.
The first bicyclist rides due north and the other rides
due west. Find the speed that each bicyclist rode in
miles per hour if they are 8V2 miles apart after riding
for 2 hours at the same speed
Answers
Answer:
4 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the cyclists is the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle. The hypotenuse is √2 times the length of the legs in such a triangle, so each cyclist must have ridden 8 miles in 2 hours.
Their speed is (8 mi)/(2 h) = 4 mi/h.
_____
Additional comment
Consider an isosceles right triangle with leg lengths 1. Then the Pythagorean theorem tells us the length of the hypotenuse is ...
c² = a² +b² . . . square of hypotenuse is sum of squares of legs
c² = 1² +1² . . . . both legs are 1 in our example triangle
c² = 2
c = √2
That is, the hypotenuse is √2 times the leg length.

Answers
Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the hypotenuse of a right triangle, we use Pythagorean's Theorem which states that [tex]a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]. Plugging in the values of the two legs given, we get [tex]2^{2} +4^{2} =c^{2} =20[/tex]. We can take the square root of each side and get that [tex]c=\sqrt{20} =4.5[/tex].

X=
Answers
Answer:
X = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 8/2 = x - 6
3x - 8 = x - 6 × 2
3x - 8 = x - 12
3x - x = -12 + 8
2x = -4
X = -4/2
X = -2
Hopes that it will help u...✌
1. Multiply both sides of the equation by 2
3x - 8 = 2x - 12
2. Move the terms over and collect like terms
3x - 2x = -12 + 8
X = -12 + 8
X = -4
If we express $3x^2 - 6x - 2$ in the form $a(x - h)^2 + k$, then what is $a + h + k$?
Answers
If we express [tex]3x^2-6x-2[/tex] in the form [tex]a(x-h)^2+k[/tex], then a + h + k = -1
The given quadratic expression is:
[tex]3x^2-6x-2[/tex]
To express [tex]3x^2-6x-2[/tex] in the form [tex]a(x-h)^2+k[/tex], follow the steps below
Rewrite [tex]3x^2-6x-2[/tex] as [tex]3x^2-6x+3-5[/tex]
Factorize common terms
[tex]3(x^2-2x+1)-5[/tex]
This can be further simplified as:
[tex]3(x-1)^2-5[/tex]
Therefore, the vertex form of the equation [tex]3x^2-6x-2[/tex] is [tex]3(x-1)^2-5[/tex]
Compare [tex]3(x-1)^2-5[/tex] with [tex]a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]
a = 3, h = 1, k = -5
a + h + k = 3 + 1 - 5
a + h + k = -1
Therefore if we express [tex]3x^2-6x-2[/tex] in the form [tex]a(x-h)^2+k[/tex], then a + h + k = -1

Answers
Answer:

If x (levi sells this many computers)
then y (levi makes this much money)
x : 0 ; 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 ; 5 so on...
y : 60 ; 65 ; 70 ; 75 ; 80 ; 85 so on...
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation can be modeled by P(x) = 5x+60
P= levi's total pay
x = number of computers sold
This equation can be input into a graphing calculator to find a table of the corresponding x and y values for this equation. To solve without using a calculator, plug in a certain value for x in the equation and solve for y to get its corresponding value.
the set $s = \$ contains the first $50$ positive integers. after the multiples of 2 and the multiples of 3 are removed, how many integers remain in the set $s$?
Answers
Clearly, |S| = 50.
Count the multiples of 2 between 1 and 50:
⌊50/2⌋ = ⌊25⌋ = 25
(where ⌊x⌋ denotes the "floor of x", or the largest integer that is smaller than or equal to x; in other words, round down to the nearest integer)
Count the multiples of 3 between 1 and 50:
⌊50/3⌋ ≈ ⌊16.667⌋ = 16
Since LCM(2, 3) = 6, the sets of multiples of 2 and multiples of 3 have some overlap. Count the multiples of 6 between 1 and 50:
⌊50/6⌋ ≈ ⌊8.333⌋ = 8
Then by the inclusion/exclusion principle, we remove from S
25 + 16 - 8 = 33
elements, so that the new set S contains 50 - 33 = 17 elements.
What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (10, 2) and (19, 14)?
Write your answer in simplest form.
Answers
Answer:
The slope of this line is 4/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x1, y1) = (10, 2)
(x2, y2) = (19, 14)
First, find the slope using the slope formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
All this is doing is finding the distance between the y-coordinates and dividing it by the distance between the x-coordinates. I marked these two as points 1 and 2 above, so you can plug in all 4 values and solve:
[tex]m=\frac{14-2}{19-10}\\\\m=\frac{12}{9}\\\\m=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
The slope of this line is 4/3.

You want to save at least $180 to buy a new phone. You already have $65 in your account, and you can save $23 a week from your after-school job. Which inequality can be used to find the minimum number of weeks you need to save before you can purchase the phone?
Answers
Answer: 180≤23x+65
Step-by-step explanation:
p = phone
w = weeks
65 + 23w ≥ 180
If you need it to be solved, the minimum number of weeks goes as shown:
65 + 23w ≥ 180
-65 -65
23w ≥ 115
/23 /23
w ≥ 5
So, the minimum number of weeks that is required is 5.

Hope this is helpful!
Answer:
i think x = 23, y = 129
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+14+3x-18 = 180
8x-4 = 180
8x = 184
x = 23
3x-18+y = 180
3(23)-18+y = 180
69-18+y = 180
51+y = 180
y = 129
