Ashley and Beth drove from city A to city B in exactly 5 hours, not taking rest stops. Ashley drove up to the area located halfway between the two cities at the average speed of 40 miles per hour and then Beth drove the other half at an average speed of 60 miles per hour. How many hours did Beth drive on their trip?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Time= 5 hrs

Ashley's speed= 40 mph

Beth's speed= 60 mph

Beth's time in travel= x

Since they drove the same distance, we have this equation:

60x=40(5-x)60x=200-40x100x=200x=200/100x=2 hours

Brittany uses the rowing machine and the stair machine at the gym for an exercise program. Her trainer wants her on an exercise program that meets these two conditions:

After 5 minutes of stretching, Brittany will exercise for 30 minutes, dividing her time between the two types of machines.
Brittany will spend three times as much time on the stair machine as on the rowing machine.
Write an equation.

Answers

Answer:

The equations are: [tex]x+ y = 30[/tex]  and  [tex]x = 3y[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Brittany uses the rowing machine and the stair machine at the gym for an exercise program.

Let the time spend by Brittany on the stair machine be represented by the variable [tex]x[/tex].

and the time spend by Brittany on the rowing machine be represented by the variable [tex]y[/tex].

Now, there are two conditions stated by her trainer;

The first condition states that Brittany will exercise for 30 minutes, dividing her time between the two types of machines, that is;

                           [tex]x + y = 30 \text{ minutes}[/tex]

The second condition states that Brittany will spend three times as much time on the stair machine as on the rowing machine, that is;

                                [tex]x = 3y[/tex]

So, the equations are: [tex]x+ y = 30[/tex]  and  [tex]x = 3y[/tex].

These equations can be solved either using the substitution method or the elimination method.

Rachel, Mario and Sanjit share some money in the ratios 4:3:9
Mario receives £96.
Work out the difference between the amount received by Rachel and the amount
received by Sanjit.​

Answers

Answer:

£160.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mario receives 3 / (4+3+9) = 3/16 of the money.

So by proportion the total amount of money

=  96 * 16/3 = £512

So Rachel receives  4/16 = 1/4

= 512 / 4

= £128.

- and Sanjit receives 9/16

= 512 * 9/16

= £288

The difference is 288 - 128 = £160.

Which linear function has the steepest slope? 15 POINTS

Answers

Answer:

Actually the correct answer is the last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

I just took the quiz on edge

The function given in the option (4) has the steepest slope.

For option (1)

Let's calculate the slope for given values of x and y in option (1)

First, let's consider the points (3,10) and (6,13):

[tex]x_1=3, x_2 =6[/tex] and [tex]y_1 = 10, y_2=13[/tex]

[tex]x_2-x_1=6-3=3[/tex]

and [tex]y_2-y_1= 13-10 =3[/tex]

Now, the formula for slope is:

[tex]m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

So, for these points,

[tex]m=\dfrac{3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m=1[/tex]

Next, for points (6,13) and (9,16):

[tex]x_2-x_1=9-6=3[/tex]

and [tex]y_2-y_1=16-13 =3[/tex]

then, slope is:

[tex]m=\dfrac{3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m=1[/tex]

Similarly, for points (9,16) and (12,19):

Slope is 1.

Hence, for the data given in option (1), slope is 1.

Now for option(2);

From the given graph, we can see the co-ordinates are (1,0) and (0,-2)

[tex]x_1=1,y_1=0[/tex] and [tex]x_2=0, y_2=-2[/tex]

[tex]x_2-x_1= -1[/tex] and [tex]y_2-y_1=-2[/tex]

Thus, the slope is:

[tex]m = \dfrac{-2}{-1}[/tex]

[tex]m=2[/tex]

Now for option (3):

From the given graph, it is clear that the co-ordinates are (0.5,0) and (0,1)

[tex]x_1= 0.5, x_2=0[/tex] and [tex]y_1=0, y_2=1[/tex]

[tex]x_2-x_1=0.5[/tex] and [tex]y_2-y_1= 1[/tex]

Thus, the slope is

[tex]m = \dfrac{1}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]m =2[/tex]

Now, for option (4):

First, let's consider the points (2, -4) and (4, -12)

[tex]x_1= 2, x_2= 4[/tex] and [tex]y_1= -4, y_2=-12[/tex]

[tex]x_2-x_1= 2[/tex] and [tex]y_2-y_1=- 8[/tex]

slope is:

[tex]m = \dfrac{-8}{2}[/tex]

m =-4

Now, for points  (4, -12) and (6, -20):

[tex]x_2-x_1= 2[/tex] and [tex]y_2-y_1= -8[/tex]

Then, the slope is:

[tex]m= \dfrac{-8}{2}[/tex]

m = -4

Similarly, for points (6, -20) and (8, -28):

Slope is -4.

That means for the data given in  option (4)  slope is -4.

Hence, the slope for the option (4) is steepest.

how many 3/8’s are in 3

Answers

Answer: 8 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Youre essentially doing 3 divided by 3/8.

3 is equivalent to 3/1. And when you divide fractions, you have to multiply by the reciprocal. the reciprocal of 3/8 is 8/3.

[tex]\frac{3}{1} *\frac{8}{3} = \frac{24}{3} = 8[/tex]

There are eight (8) 3/8’s are in 3

The number of 3/8’s in 3 can be obtained by dividing 3 by 3/8. That is;

3 ÷ 3/8

N.B: Due to the division sign, the 3/8 is arranged inversely while the sign changes to multiplication (×) as follows:

= 3 × 8/3

= 24/3

= 8

This means that there are eight (8) 3/8’s are in 3.

Find x. I need it ASAP

Answers

Answer:

x = 27°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the two parallel lines, we can conclude that

corner DAB = corner FDE = 2x

In ∆DAB

Corner DAB = 2x

Corner BDA = 2x (given)

Corner ABD = 72 (given)

The sum of three corners in any trianle, adds up to 180°.

So if one corner is 72° and the other two corners are the same, then the two corners together, must be 180-72 = 108°.

For each corner that is 108/2= 54

so corner BDA = 54° and also corner DAB = 54°.

Given was BDA = 2x and BDA = 54°

so 2x = 54°

then x = 27°

A set of shirt prices are normally distributed with a mean of 45 dollars and a standard deviation of 5 dollars. What proportion of shirt prices are between 37 dollars and 59.35 dollars? You may round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.9432

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

[tex]\\Mean (\mu)= 45[/tex]

[tex]Standard\;Deviation (\sigma)= 5[/tex]

Based on this, the proportion of the shirt price between the given range is

As we know that

For 37 dollars

[tex]z_{ score } = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{37.0-45.0}{5.0}[/tex]

[tex]z_1 = -1.6[/tex]

For 59.35 dollars

[tex]\\ z = \frac{59.35-45.0}{5.0} \\[/tex]

[tex]z_2 = 2.87[/tex]

This results into

= P(37.0 < x < 59.35)

= P(-1.6 < z < 2.87)

= P(Z < 2.87) - P(Z < -1.6)

So,

= P(37.0 < x < 59.35)

= 0.9979 - 0.0547

Altogether, her total was $11. How many of each $1 stamps and how many of
each $1.20 stamps did she buy?​

Answers

Answer:

Let the first equation be x + y = 10

x = 10 -y

2nd equation will be 1x + 1.2y = 11

Substituting in 2nd equation

(10 - y) + 1.2y = 11

10 - y + 1.2y = 11

.2y = 1

y = 5

If y = 5, x = 5: coz x + y = 10

She have buy 5 stamps of each $1 stamps and  5 stamps of each $1.20 stamps.

x = 10 -y

2nd equation will be,

Substituting in 2nd equation;

(10 - y) + 1.2y = 11

10 - y + 1.2y = 11

0.2y = 1

y = 5

If y = 5, x = 5:

x + y = 10

Gabriella drives her car 300 miles and averages a certain speed. If the average speed had been 9mph less, she could have traveled only 240 miles in the same length of time. What is her average speed?

Answers

Answer:

Her average speed is 45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the average speed be x mph

Time taken complete the journey = distance/ average speed

Time = 300/x

Now , at 9 mph less, she could have only traveled 240 miles in same time

At 9 mph less, the average speed is x-9

so the time would be 240/x-9

since the time is same as before;

300/x = 240/x-9

Divide both sides by 60

5/x = 4/x-9

Cross multiply

5(x-9) = 4(x)

5x - 45 = 4x

5x -4x = 45

x = 45 mph
