The browns are moving across the counrty. Mr. Brown leaves 2.5 hours before Mrs. Brown, if he averages 75 mph and she averages 85 mph, how many hours will it take Mrs. Brown to catch up to Mr. Brown?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the time taken by Mrs Brown to catch up is 18.75 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

average speed of Mr Brown = 75 mph

average speed of Mrs Brown, = 85 mph

time first traveled by Mr Brown = 2.5 hours

The distance traveled by Mr Brown before Mrs Brown start her own Journey;

D = speed  x time

D = 75 mph x 2.5 h

D = 187.5 miles

Let the time taken by Mrs Brown to catch up = t

(85 - 75)t = 187.5

10t = 187.5

t = 18.75 hours

Check:

after 18.75 hours:  Mrs Brown will travel ⇒ 18.75 x 85 = 1593.75 miles

after (2.5 h + 18.75h) : Mr Brown will travel ⇒ 21.25 x 75 = 1593.75 miles

Mike just hopped on the edge of a merry-go-round. What are his linear and angular speeds if the diameter of the merry-go-round is 14 feet and it takes 6 seconds for it
to make a complete revolution? Round the solutions to two decimal places.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of the merry-go-round, d = 14 feet

Time taken, t = 6 seconds

Radius, r = 7 feet

The linear speed of the merry-go-round is given by :

[tex]v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 7}{6}\\\\=7.33\ m/s[/tex]

Also,

[tex]v=r\omega[/tex]

Where

[tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular speed

So,

[tex]\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{7.33}{7}\\\\=1.04\ rad/s[/tex]

Hence, his linear and angular speeds are 7.33 m/s and 1.04 rad/s.

A homeowner wants to fence in a rectangular yard space along one side of her house. The total area she can fence in is 800 square feet. Create a model to determine a possible length and width of the yard. *REMEMBER*: AREA = LENGTH times WIDTH.

Answers

Answer:

Length: 20 or 40 feet

Width: 40 or 20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 800 = length*width = x*(60-x)= 60x - x^2

- x^2 + 60x - 800 = 0

x = 20

Or x = 40

So length can be either 20 feet or 40 feet and width can be 40 (60-20) or 20 (60-40)

Answers

The answer is going to be option 3) - calculer le volume de la pyramid SEFGH

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Voir le diagramme ci-attaché.

1) Distance EG

À l'aide du théoreme Pythagore, EG^2 = EF²+FG² = 4²+3² = 25

=>  EG = sqrt(25) = 5

2) Distance SO

Par la symétrie, EO=OG=(EG/2)=5/2 = 2.5

Encore, à l'aide du même théoreme,SE^2 = SO²+EO²

SO^2 = SE² - EO² = 6.5²-2.5² = 42.25 - 6.25 = 36

SO = sqrt(36) = 6  QED

3) Volume de la pyramide

V = (Aire de la base * hauteur ) /3

= (EF * FG) * SO /3

= (4*3) * 6 /3

Answers

Answer:

the function is decreasing on the interval (-∞,-2) and increasing on the interval (-2,∞)

B

Step-by-step explanation:

first we take the first derivative

x²+4x-1 = 2x+4

set this equal to 0 and solve

2x+4= 0

2x= -4

x= -2

we then have two intervals

(-∞,-2) u (-2,∞)

to find out whether something is decreasing on increasing on these intervals just plug in any number in the interval

if the result is positive it's increasing

if it's negative it's decreasing

Let's plug in x= -4 for the interval (-∞, -2)

2(-4)+4= -4

it's negative so it's decreasing on this interval

let's then plug in x=0 for the interval (-2,∞)

2(0)+4= 4

this is positive so it's increasing on this interval

So the function is decreasing on the interval (-∞,-2) and increasing on the interval (-2,∞)

How to count no. of digits from a certain no. to a certain no. ?

Suppose we are given how many no. are there from 224 to 358.

To find do the following (358 - 224 + 1) = 135 numbers.

According to the question Darrel receives a weekly salary of 435 dollars. In addition, 12 dollars is paid for every item sold in excess of 100 items.

Here excess of 100 items means after 100 which is 101.

He sold 189 items so his addition earning is for (189 - 101 + 1) = 89 items.

Given for each item he is paid 12 dollars.

∴ For 89 items he is paid (89 × 12) dollars which is

= 1068 dollars.

So in that week Darrel earns total of (435 + 1068) dollars.

= 1503 dollars.

The points (6, 9) and (0, 6) fall on a particular line. What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{1}{2}x + 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Let \ (x _1 y _ 1 ) = ( 6 , 9 ) \ and \ (x _ 2 , y _ 2 ) \ = ( 0 , 6 )\\\\[/tex]

Step 1 : Find slope, m

              [tex]slope, m = \frac{y _ 2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1 } = \frac{6 - 9}{0 - 6 } = \frac{-3}{-6} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step 2 : Find the equation

                [tex](y - y _ 1 ) = m ( x - x_ 1) \\\\( y - 9 ) = \frac{1}{2} (x - 6 ) \\\\y = \frac{1}{2}x - 3 + 9 \\\\y = \frac{1}{2}x + 6[/tex]

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b is the formula. m is the slope and to calculate that you use the slope formula y2 - y1/ x2 - x1.

(6, 9)  is the first coordinate so 6 is x1 and 9 is y1. Similarly in (0, 6), x2 is 0 and y2 is 6. Now if we put that into the slope formula it would look something like this: 6-9/0-6. that comes to -3/-6. simplify and cancel out the negatives and you get 1/2 which is the m ( slope).

The b is the y-intercept, which is the y value for where the x is 0. In this question, they already give you the coordinate where x is 0. (0, 6). x is 0 and y is 6. therefore the b (y-intercept) is 6.

Put all of this into y =mx +b, and you get y= 1/2x + 6.

If you want to make sure you did it right, just plug in one of the coordinates into this equation. Let's use  (6, 9).

9 = 1/2 (6) + 6

9 = 3 + 6

9 = 9. It works out, therefore the equation right.

Hope this helps
