Richard and Linda enjoy visiting Hilton Head Island, South
Carolina. The distance from their home to Hilton Head is
975 mi, so the drive takes them 2 days. Richard and Linda
travel twice as far the first day as they do the second day.
How many miles do they travel each day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

first day: 650, second day: 325

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles travelled on the second day and  2x the number of miles travelled on the first day. They add up to 975.

2x+x=975

3x=975

x=325

x represents the number of miles travelled on the second day so they travelled 650 miles on the first day and 325 miles on the second day.

Answer 2

Answer:

650 miles the first day, 325 miles the second day

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the distance they traveled on the first day as 2x and the distance they traveled on the second day as x. The former is 2x because they traveled twice as far the first day compared to the second day. Since the total distance traveled is 975 miles, we can write the following equation to solve for x:

[tex]2x + x = 975[/tex]

[tex]3x = 975[/tex] (Simplify LHS; 2x + x = 3x)

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{975}{3}[/tex] (Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get rid of the coefficient on x)

[tex]x = 325[/tex] (Simplify)

Therefore, [tex]2x = 2 * x = 2 * 325 = 650[/tex] so the final answer is they traveled 650 miles the first day and 325 miles the second day. Hope this helps!

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4, -2) and (8, – 7)?
Put your answer in fully reduced form.

Answers

Answer:

y= -5x/4 + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope, use the equation [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], so m(the slope) = (-7+2)/(8-4) = -5/4.

Now let us use (4,-2) in the equation [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex].

So y - (-2) = (-5/4)(x - 4) (equation of the line)

y + 2 = -5/4(x - 4)

y + 2 = -5x/4 + 5

y= -5x/4 + 3 (slope-intercept form, also known as fully reduced form)

You could also use (8,-7) instead of (4,-2).

Answers

Answer:

a) 44[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]/3 feet

b) .3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We know all three of the angles: 30 60 90. So we can divide 22 by [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex], and then multiply that number by 2. We cannot have a radicand in the bottom, so multiply the denominator and numerator by

for b), simply divide a) by 75 ft/min, which is approximately  .3 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

y=-1/8x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, write the equation in point-slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=-1/8(x-24)

2. Distribute -1/8 to x and -24

-1/8 times x = -1/8x

-1/8 times -24 = 3

y-1=-1/8x+3

3. Add 1 to both sides

y=-1/8x +4

Find the diagonal of the box using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Answers

Answer:

26 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 24 cm

Width = 8 cm

Height = 6 cm

Required:

Diagonal of the box

SOLUTION:

Using the pythagorean theorem, [tex] a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = d^2 [/tex], where,

a, b and c are the dimensions of the box, and d is the length of the diagonal.

Plug in the value into the formula

[tex] 24^2 + 8^2 + 6^2 = d^2 [/tex]

[tex] 676 = d^2 [/tex]

[tex] \sqrt{676} = \sqrt{d^2} [/tex]

[tex] 26 = d [/tex]

Length of diagonal of the box = 26 cm

Henry rode his motorcycle from his house to a friend's house. After riding 10 miles, he realizes he has traveled 2/3 of the way. How far is Bob's house from his friend's house?
A. 20 miles
B. 15 miles
C. 12 miles
D. 25 miles​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 of diatance = 10 miles

3/3 of distance = 10 * (3/2) = 15 miles.

The distance between the houses is 15 miles. (B)

Let the total distance covered= x

Distance covered= 10 miles

According to the question,

2/3 of x= 10

=> 2/3 × x= 10

=> 2x/3= 10

=> 2x= 10× 3

=> 2x= 30

=> x= 30/2

=> x= 15

Bob's house is 15 miles away from Henry's house.

In a lab experiment, 100 bacteria are placed in a petri dish. The conditions are such that the number of bacteria is able to double every 26 hours. How long would it be, to the nearest tenth of an hour, until there are 168 bacteria present?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The number in the dish at time t (in hours) can be described by ...

  n(t) = 100·2^(t/26)

We want to find t such that ...

  n(t) = 168

  100·2^(t/26) = 168

  2^(t/26) = 1.68 . . . . . . divide by 100

  (t/26)log(2) = log(1.68) . . . . . take logarithms

  t = 26·log(1.68)/log(2) ≈ 19.459992 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

  t ≈ 19.5 . . . hours

It would be about 19.5 hours until there are 168 bacteria.

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybeans that contained a mixture of regular flavored jellybeans and "surprise" jellybeans. The bag advertised that 15% of the jellybeans were "surprise" flavors. If she counted 40 jellybeans in the bag, how many should she expect to be the "surprise" jellybeans?

Answers

Answer:

6 jellybean

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybean the contains regular flavored jelly beans and surprise jelly bean.

Consider the regular flavored jellybean to be = r;  &

The surprise jelly bean.= s

From the bag, there are 40 jellybeans of which 15% is surprise jellybean.

Therefore the number of expected surprise jellybeans is:

= total number of jellybeans × percentage of surprise jellybean

= 40 × (15 /100)

= 6 jellybean

If  6 surprise jellybean is presented in the bag; then the number of regular flavored jellybean = 40 - 6 = 34 regular flavored jellybean

one factor of 8x^3+1 is 2x+1 The other factor is?

Answers

First, write 8x^3 in exponential form (8 is basically the same as 2^3)


So that you have 2^3*x^3+1


Multiply the terms with equal exponents by multiply the bases (1 is basically the same as 1^3)


So that it becomes (2x)^3+1^3



Then, using a^3+b^3 equals (a+b)(a^2-2ab+b^2), factor the expression so that it becomes
(2x+1)((2x)^2-2x+1^2)

Expand the second bracket


So the two factors are (2x+1) and (4x^2-2x+1)
