Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 37 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The total length of the three roads is 245 km

Suppose the length of PQ is  [tex]x\ km[/tex]

According to question

The Length of PR is  [tex]x+15[/tex]

The length of QR is  [tex]3(x+15)[/tex]

The Sum of PQ, PR, and QR is

[tex]\Rightarrow x+x+15+3(x+15)=245\\\Rightarrow 5x+60=245\\\Rightarrow 5x=185\\\Rightarrow x=37 km[/tex]

length of PQ=37 km

2a.) A(t) is the average high temperature in Aspen, Colorado, "t" months after the

start of the year. M(t) is the average high temperature in Minneapolis, Minnesota,

"t" months after the start of the year. Temperature is measured in degrees

Fahrenheit. Which function had the HIGHER average rate of change between the

beginning of January and middle of March? *

Answers

Answer:

As you didn't add the graph, I will for you.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is Minneapolis because as you can see Aspen did not change as dramatically as Minneapolis.

The start of January and the middle of March, Minneapolis, or function M(t), had a larger average rate of change. It means that Minneapolis experiences a greater increase in temperature than Aspen does.

What is meant by function?

A mathematical formula, rule, or legislation that establishes the link between the independent variable and the dependent variable (the dependent variable). In mathematics and the sciences, functions are fundamental for constructing physical relationships.

In the beginning of January, Aspen's temperature was 35° F, and in the middle of March, it was 48° F. 3.5 months later Minneapolis has lows of 25 degrees Fahrenheit in January and highs of 50 degrees Fahrenheit in the middle of March (at 3.5 months).

So, the average rate of change of temperature of Aspen between the points (1, 35) and (3.5, 48) exists

[tex]$\frac{y_2-y 1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{48-35}{3.5-1}=5.2$[/tex]

The average rate of change of temperature of Minneapolis between the points (1, 25) and (3.5, 50) is [tex]$\frac{50-25}{3.5-1}=10$[/tex]

Thus, from the start of January and the middle of March, Minneapolis, or function M(t), had a larger average rate of change. It means that Minneapolis experiences a greater increase in temperature than Aspen does.

Find the curcumince of the circle. use 3.14 or 22/7.​

Answers

Answer:

the circumference of this circle is approximately 25.12 cm with π as 3.14.

Step-by-step explanation:

circumference of a circle is technically a perimeter of a circle.

we find the circumference of a circle by using the following formula :

c = 2πr                                   or                                 c = πd

r represents the radius                                             d represents the diameter

since 4 yds here is a radius, we use the left formula i placed above. then, we substitute the numbers in. pi represents 3.14 as said in your question. even if you use 22/7, you will still get around the same result.

c = 2πr

c = 2(3.14)4

c = 6.28(4)

c = 25.12 yds

therefore, the circumference of this circle is approximately 25.12 yds.

On a snowy winters eve two candles are lit at the exact same time. A 18-inch candle and a 21-inch candle are lit at the exact same time. The 18-inch candle burns 2 inches every hour. The 21-inch candle burns 3 inches every hour. Create a system of equations using the information

Answers

Answer:

y=21-3x  and y=18-2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so we have candle A, which is 21 inches and burns 3 inches every hour. in slope-intercept form, the hours would be the x, the 21 is our y intercept. So the first equatio would be y=-3x+21 (negative slope, because the height of the candle is going down). Candle b, which is 18 inches, burns away 2 inches each hour. We can make -2 the slope (negative 2, since the candle is  being burned away, not being added to), and the 18 our y intercept. So the two equations would be

y=21-3x

and

y=18-2x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The length and breadth of the playground as measured by the surveyor are 20 m and 13 m respectively to nearest metre.

Since the actual length is x m and breadth is y m, then;

i.               x ≥ 20 m or x ≤ 20 m

ii.              y ≥ 13 m or y ≤ 13 m

(b) perimeter of the playground = 2 (length + breadth)

                                                     = 2 ( 20 + 13)

                                                     = 2 x 33

                                                     = 66 m

The range of values of the perimeter = 65.4 m < perimeter < 66.5 m

ii. area of the playground = length x breadth

                                          = 20 x 13

                                         = 260 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

Estimation on a scale drawing of a fence, 3.75 inches represent 24 feet . what. is the actual length of a second fence is 2.8 inches in the drawing?

The exact length of the second fence is __ feet. ​

Answers

Answer: 17.92 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the estimation on a scale drawing of a fence is that 3.75 inches = 24 feet.

Based on the above, 1 inch will be:

= 24/3.75

= 6.4 feet

Therefore, the actual length of a second fence that is 2.8 inches in the drawing will be:

= 6.4 × 2.8

= 17.92 feet
