Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels at 85 miles per hour. The westbound train
travels at 75 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to be 192 miles apart?
Do not do any rounding.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It will take 1 hour and 12 minutes for the two trains to be 192 miles apart

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance between the two trains is the distance traveled by both trains. The distance traveled by the eastbound train is 85 mph * elapsed time and the distance traveled by the westbound train is 75 * elapsed time.

The combined formula is distance traveled = speed of first train * elapsed time + speed of second train * elapsed time.

Since the elapsed time is equal for both trains then the formula is modified as distance traveled = (speed of first train + speed of second train) * elapsed time.

Solving for the elapsed time

distance traveled = (speed of first train + speed of second train) * elapsed time

192 miles = (85mph + 75 mph) * elapsed time

192 miles = 160 mph * elapsed time

elapsed time = 192 miles / 160 mph

elapsed time = 1.2 hours

elapsed time = 1 hour and 12 minutes

It will take 1 hour and 12 minutes for the two trains to be 192 miles apart.

n starts at 1, and n is a positive whole number (1,2,3,...)

The sequence is arithmetic with first term 40 and common difference 10. Meaning we add 10 to each term to get the next one.

--------

a1 = 40 = first term

d = 10 = common difference

[tex]a_n = a_1 + d(n-1)\\\\a_n = 40 + 10(n-1)\\\\a_n = 40 + 10n-10\\\\a_n = 10n + 30\\\\[/tex]

What is the slant height of the pyramid to the nearest 10th

15.5mm
13.9mm
12.5mm
19.0mm

Answers

Answer:
12.5mm

Step by step explanation:
The slant height is just the hypotenuse of the triangle where the height and base are the legs. The height is 12 and the base is 7. We only use half of the base which is 3.5. Using the Pythagorean theorem, 12^2+3.5^2=c^2.
It simplifies to 144+12.25=c^2. Then, 156.25=c^2. Find the radical of 156.25 and you will get c=12.5.
The slant height is 12.5

One pump can fill a reservoir in 60 hours. Another pump can fill the same reservoir in 80 hours. a third can empty the reservoir in 90 hours. If all three pumps are operating at the same time, how long will it take to fill the reservoir?

Answers

one pump, let's call it A, fills the reservoir by 1/60 every hour. Now, B fills it by 1/80 every hour. C empties it by 1/90 every hour. All three are on, so now we combine them into one function: t(1/60 + 1/80 - 1/90) = 1, where t = the time it takes to fill it, and 1 is just our "reservoir finally filled" marker.

isolate t onto one side and we see t = 720/13 exactly, or approximately 55.38 hours. let me know if this is the wrong answer but I'm pretty sure it is correct!

Answer:

1/time needed = 1/time of 1st pump + 1/time of 2nd pump - 1/time of 3rd pump

1/t = 1/t1 + 1/t2 - 1/t3

1/t = 1/60 + 1/80 - 1/90

1/t = 12/720 + 9/720 - 8/720

1/t = 13/720

t = 720/13 hours = 55.38 hours = 55 hours 23 minutes

Write the equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through the points (-2, 2) and (4, 5). Show all work for credit.

Answers

Answer:

x - 2y + 6 = 0  

Step-by-step explanation:

Going from (-2, 2) to (4, 5), we see that x (the 'run') increases by 6 and that y (the 'rise') increases by 3.  Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise / run = 3/6, or m = 1/2.

Starting with the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b, and using the x and y values from the point (-2, 2), we get

 

2 = (1/2)(-2) + b, or 4 = -2 + 2b, or 6 = 2b, or b = 3.  Then the slope-intercept form of the desired equation is y = (1/2)x + 3.  To obtain the standard form, we multiply all three terms of this result by 2, obtaining 2y = x + 6, or

x - 2y + 6 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x+2}[/tex]

To find:

[tex]g(x) = ?[/tex]

Solution:

Let [tex]g(x) = m[/tex]

We have

[tex]f\circ g(x)= \sqrt[3]{x+3}\\OR\\f( g(x))= \sqrt[3]{x+3}[/tex]...... (1)

Now, we have let:

[tex]g(x) = m\\\therefore f(g(x)) = f(m)[/tex]

Putting x = in f(x), we get

[tex]f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x+2}\\\Rightarrow f(m) = \sqrt[3]{m+2}[/tex]....... (2)

Comparing equation (1) and (2):

[tex]\sqrt[3]{x+3} =\sqrt[3]{m+2}[/tex]

Taking cubes both sides:

[tex]x+3=m+2\\\Rightarrow m = x+3-2\\\Rightarrow m = x+1[/tex]

[tex]\therefore g(x) = x+1[/tex]

Hence,

The correct answer is:

The total amount Liza has spent after 4 months is $89.

What is an equation?

Mathematically, an equation can be defined as a statement that supports the equality of two expressions, which are connected by the equals sign “=”. For example, 2x – 5 = 13.

Given that, Lisa paid $35.00 to join an online music service, she purchases 18 songs each month at a cost of $0.75 per song,

we need to find the total amount she paid after 4 months,

So, the cost of 18 songs = 0.75 x 18 = $13.5

The cost of 18 songs in 4 months = $54

Now, the total amount she paid = $54 + $35 = $89

Hence, the total amount Liza has spent after 4 months is $89.

Since it is an equilateral triangle it means that all the sides are 50. Each side is equal so, if you divide 150 by 3 you get 50. (and since perimeter is the adding of each side)

Now you want to try to figure out what the altitude is of the triangle so you divide it in half. Making the bottom side length now 25 because half of 50 is 25. You now have to use Pythagoreans theorem to figure out the altitude:

c^2 - a^2 = b^2

50^2 - 25^2 = b^2

2500 - 625 = b^2

1875 = b^2

√1875 = b

h( x ) = f( x ) - g( x )

⇒ h( x ) = ( 3x + 400 ) - ( 5x + 200 ) - Distribute negative sign, taking out ( )

⇒ h( x ) = 3x + 400 - 5x + 200 - Combine like elements

⇒ h( x ) = - 2x + 200

And there you have it! Our solution should be option a ( h( x ) = - 2x + 200 )

- 3 = a × 0 + b                          

⇒ - 3 = b                                 ____(1)

The vertex of this parabola is at (2, -4). When the y-value is -1, the x-value is 3. What is the coefficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation?

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (2, - 4) , thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 4

To find a substitute (3, - 1 ) into the equation

- 1 = a(3 - 2)² - 4 ( add 4 to both sides )

3 = a

Thus

y = 3(x - 2)2 - 4 ← equation in vertex form

   = 3(x² - 4x + 4) + 4

    = 3x² - 12x + 12 + 4

     = 3x² - 12x + 16 ← equation in standard form

with coefficient of x² term = 3
