A car and a truck left Washington, DC traveling in opposite directions. The car
traveled 19 miles
per hour faster than the truck, and at the end of 8 hours they were
1048 miles apart. What was the average speed of each vehicle?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The speed of the car is 75 mph.

The speed of the truck is 56 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Call the speed of the truck (x) miles per hour. As per the given information, the car is (19) miles per hour faster. Thus, one can form expressions to represent the speeds of the vehicles.

car = ( x + 19 ) mph

truck = ( x ) mph

Using the formula, ( (speed) * (time) = (distance) ), one can say that the speed of the car, times the time it took plus the speed of the truck times the time will equal the distance between the two vehicles:

(( car speed )( time )) + (( truck speed )( time )) = ( distance between vehicles )

Substitute,

( ( x + 19 ) ( 8 ) ) + ( ( x ) ( 8 ) ) = 1048

Simplify,

8x + 152 + 8x = 1048

16x + 152 = 1048

       -152     -152

16x = 896

/16     /16

x = 56

Add (19) to find the speed of the car:

truck speed + 19

= 56 + 19

= 75

The speed of the car is 75 mph.

The speed of the truck is 56 mph.

Answer 2

Answer:

The truck traveled at 81

mph. The car traveled at 100

mph.

Given that:

Greatest whole number that round to 400,000 when rounding to the nearest hundred thousand :

To obtain the greatest whole number which rounds to 400,000, the whole number is greater Tha 400,000 and its 10 thousand digit in the number or value to be rounded must be lesser than 5.

The value would be 449,999 ; here z the 10 thousand value which is 4 is rounded to zero since it is not up to 5 and the subsequent digits also rounded to 0 to give ;

400,000 (nearest hundred thousand).

Factor completely: 2x^3-12x^2+18x

Answers

Answer:

2x(x - 3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simplify this a lot by first factoring 2x out of each term:

2x³ - 12x² + 18x

= 2x(x² - 6 + 9)

We can then factor the trinomial fairly easily, as it's a perfect square:

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the given polygon = n + 2 + 3 + 4 + n + 2 + 3 + 4

                                                     = 2(n + 2 + 3 + 4)

                                                     = 2(n + 9) units

Area of the composite figure = Area of rectangle A + Area of rectangle B + Area of rectangle C

                                                = (3 × 4) + (n ×2) + (2 × 3)

                                                = 12 + 2n + 6

                                                = 2n + 18

                                                = 2(n + 9) units²

Therefore, perimeter of the given figure = Area of the figure

A store purchased a plasma screen TV for $770 and marked it up 150%. During a sale, the store marked it down 20%. What was the discount price on the plasma screen TV?​

Answers

Answer:

1540

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the new price after the markup

The markup is

770 * 150%

770 * 1.5

1155

Add this to the original price

770 + 1155

1925

Now find the discount

1925*20%

1925*.20

385

Subtract this amount from the 1925

1925-385

1540

The final price is 1540

Answer:

Solution given:

cost price [c.p] of TV =$770

MP=c.p+ 150% of c.p=$770+150/100×770=$1925

discount [D]=20%

now

discount amount=D% of MP=20/100×1925=$385 is your answer.

$385 was the discount price on the plasma screen TV.

find the slope and y-intercepts of the line below & write the equation of the line.

Answers

Answer:

m=3     b=-2       y=3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope/m is 3 because the rise is 3 and the run is 1. Rise over run and you get 3/1 also known as 3.

The y-intercept point/b is -2 because you can look at the graph and the point where the line touches the y-axis is the y-intercept/b

The equation is written in the format of y=mx+b so y and then m is the slope then add x after the slope, then write the y intercept.

You are organizing a school banquet. You spend $82 on decorations. Dinner will cost $13 for each person that attends. In the equation y=13x+82, y is the total cost of the banquet for x people. Complete the solution (69,?) to find the cost for 69 people.

Answers

Answer:

(69,979)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the coordinates, x is represented as 69. We can now insert this into the equation.

y = 13x + 82

Now to insert x.

y = 13(69) + 82

Now we can multiply 13 by 69.

13*69 = 897

Now fix the equation.

y = 897 + 82

Now add to get our y.

897 + 82 = 979

Substitute into the equation.

y = 979

And there is our answer. We now need to put this into the coordinates.

And we get our final answer of (69,979).

Apple juice and cranberry juice have been mixed in the ratio of 4:5. If the price of apple juice is 45 cents per pint and the price of cranberry juice is $0.8 per pint, what should the price of one pint of the mixture be?

Answers

Answer:

$0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the price of the one pint of the mixture is shown below:

Since the ratio of apple juice and cranberry juice is 4:5

And, the price of apple juice is 45 cents i.e. = 0.45 × 4 ÷  9 = 0.2

Also the price of cranberry juice is $0.8 = $0.08 × 5 ÷ 9 = 0.04

SO, the price of one pint of the mixture is

= 0.2 + 0.04

= $0.24

4g=16+3g

g=16, since m=3g/4

m=3(16)/4

m=48/4
