Write the fractions from parts (a) and (b) as a proportion, and solve to find out how many miles Alex's friend's house is from school. Round your answer to the tenths place. *

Answers

Answer 1

Question:

Alex skateboards at a constant speed from his house to school 3.8 miles away. It takes him 18 minutes.

a. What fraction represents his constant speed, c?

b. After school, Alex skateboards at the same constant speed to his friend’s house. It takes him 10 minutes.  Write the fraction that represents constant speed, c, if he travels a distance of y.

c. Write the fractions from parts(a) and (b) as a proportion, and solve to find out how many miles Alex’s  friend’s house is from school. Round your answer to the tenths place.

Answer:

(a) [tex]c = \frac{3.8}{18}[/tex]

(b) [tex]c = \frac{y}{10}[/tex]

(c) 2.1 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

[tex]Distance = 3.8\ miles[/tex]

[tex]Time = 18\ minutes[/tex]

Required

Determine the constant speed, c.

Speed is calculated as:

[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]c = \frac{3.8}{18}[/tex]

Solving (b):

Given

[tex]Distance = y[/tex]

[tex]Time = 10\ minutes[/tex]

Required

Determine the constant speed, c.

Speed is calculated as:

[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]c = \frac{y}{10}[/tex]

Solving (c): Write (a) and (b) as proportions and solve for y.

As a proportion, we have

[tex]\frac{y}{10} = \frac{3.8}{18}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 10

[tex]10 * \frac{y}{10} = 10 * \frac{3.8}{18}[/tex]

[tex]y = 10 * \frac{3.8}{18}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{38}{18}[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.11111[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.1\ miles[/tex]  ---- approximated

How much interest would you pay on a $12000 loan at 5% for 6 years

Answers

Answer:

Interest=$3600

Step-by-step explanation:

I = P * r * x * t

Where:

P is the principal amount, $12000.00.

r is the interest rate, 5% per year, or in decimal form, 5/100=0.05.

t is the time involved, 6....year(s) time periods.

So, t is 6....year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 12000 × 0.05 × 6 to get that:

The interest is: $3600.00

Usually now, the interest is added onto the principal to figure some new amount after 6 year(s),

or 12000.00 + 3600.00 = 15600.00. For example:

If you borrowed the $12000.00, you would now owe $15600.00

If you loaned someone $12000.00, you would now be due $15600.00

If owned something, like a $12000.00 bond, it would be worth $15600.00 now.

what is the distance between (-1, 2) and (3, 5)

Answers

Answer

the slope is 3/4 or .75

Answer:

The distance is 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Key Skills needed for this problem: Distance Formula, Coordinate Plane Understanding, Radicals, Subtraction, Exponents, Addition

1) We are given 2 points --> (-1,2) and (3,5)

2) To find out the distance between both, we use distance formula.

This is: Given 2 points [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex], the distance between the 2 points would be: [tex]\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2}}[/tex].

3) For the points (-1,2) and (3,5):

-1 is x12 is y13 is x25 is y2

4) Therefore it would be --> [tex]\sqrt{(-1 - 3)^{2} + (5-2)^{2}}[/tex]

5) This simplified would be [tex]\sqrt{(-4)^{2} + 3^{2}}[/tex]

6) This further simplified would be: [tex]\sqrt{16 + 9}[/tex]

7) This even more simplified would be [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] which is 5.

Therefore, the distance between the 2 points is 5 units.

Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D

Byron and Cari are best friends. Byron wants to give a collage photo frame to Cari on her birthday. He measures the photo frame at 12 inches by 18 inches. He wants to cover the photo frame with a golden cloth at a cost of $7 per square inch. How much will it cost for Byron to cover his photo frame?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $1512.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply 12 by 18, you get 216. Then multiply that by 7, you get 1512. Bryon will need $1512 to cover his photo frame.

Billy bought 2 sweatshirts and 3 t-shirts. His friend Jordan bout 3 sweatshirts and 3 t-shirts. Billy's bill was $35 and Jordan's bill was $45. What is the price of one t-shirt and what is the price of one sweatshirt?

Answers

Alright, denote sweatshirts by x and tshirts by y:
for billy: 2x+3y=35$
for jordan:3x+3y=45$
We need to get rid of one of the unknowns inorder to solve, therefore we will subtract the two equations from each other. This will get rid of the y variable(3y-3y=0)
2x+3y=35$
-
3x+3y=45$
=
-1x=-10$
we get rid of the negative, which leaves us with x=10$. Knowing this info, we can now easily calculate y:
2x+3y=35$
2(10)+3y=35$
20+3y=35$
3y=15
y=15/3
y=5

what is 3x2 + 5x - x2 - 2x + 3 simplifyed completely​

Answers

Answer:

2x^2+3x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "x2"   was replaced by   "x^2".  1 more similar replacement(s).

STEP  1

The Equation at the end of step 1

 (3x2 +  5x) -  x2) -  2x) +  3

STEP  2

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     Factoring  2x2+3x+3  

The first term is,  2x2  its coefficient is  2.

The middle term is,  +3x  its coefficient is  3.

The last term, "the constant", is  +3  

Step-1: Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   2 • 3 = 6  

Step-2: Find two factors of  6  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   3.

     -6    +    -1    =    -7  

     -3    +    -2    =    -5  

     -2    +    -3    =    -5  

     -1    +    -6    =    -7  

     1    +    6    =    7  

     2    +    3    =    5  

     3    +    2    =    5  

     6    +    1    =    7  

Observation: No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion: Trinomial can not be factored

Final result :

 2x^2 + 3x + 3

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle ACO = 140° - x. (Sum of angles in a triangle is 180°)

Now draw the line OD. The triangles ODC and OBC are congruent via the SSS congruence property. (OD and OB are both the radius of semicircle, common side OC, and side CD = CB is given)

Hence Angle BCO = Angle ACO = 140° - x.

Since triangle OBC is an isosceles triangle with OC = OB, this means that Angle CBO is also 140° - x.

By Exterior Angle theorem,

we have Angle AOC = Angles BCO + CBO

=> x = (140° - x) + (140° - x)

=> 3x = 280°

=> x = 280°/3. (B)

Answer:

  c ≈ 14.9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

I personally like to use a proportion that has the unknown in the numerator. The angle opposite c is ...

  C = 180° -150° -12° = 18°

Then the law of sines tells us ...

  c/sin(C) = b/sin(B)

  c = sin(C)·b/sin(B) = sin(18°)/sin(12°)(10 cm)

  c ≈ 14.9 cm

Determine whether the equation has the form a = a, and if it does, the equation has infinitely many solutions. Determine whether the equation has the form a = b, and if it does, the equation has no solution. Determine whether the equation has the form x = a, and if it does, the equation has one solution. Determine whether the equation has the form x = 0, and if it does, the equation has no solution.

Answer:

Determine whether the equation has the form x = a

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative 3 (x + 1) + 3 x = negative 3 (x minus 1) + 3

-3(x + 1) + 3x = - 3(x - 1) + 3

If the equation has the form x =a, where a is the unknown and a is the value of the unknown 'x'

Expanding :

-3x - 3 + 3x = - 3x + 3 + 3

-3x + 3x -3 = - 3x + 6

-3 = - 3x + 6

-3 - 6 = - 3x

-9 = - 3x

x = 9/3

x = 3

Jada and Noah wanted to find the total volume of a cube and a rectangular prism. They know that the prisms volume is 20 cubic units, and they know that the cube has side lengths of 10 units. Jada says the total volume is 27,000 cubic units. Noah says it is 1,020 cubic units. Do you agree with either of them?

Answers

Answer:

Noah answer is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the above question is given as:

Total Volume = Volume of the prism + Volume of the cube

Volume of the prism = 20 cubic units

Volume of a cube = (Side length)³

= 10³ = 1000 cubic units

Hence: The total volume =

20 cubic units + 1000 cubic units

= 1,020 cubic units

Therefore, I agree with Noah's answer.
