Answer:

25.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

So Bradley's speed can be modeled by the equation y=2x+40 where y=speed, x=time in hours after noon, and b=initial speed

So 12:15 is 15 minutes after noon, which is also 0.25 or 1/4 of an hour after noon. This is the x-value. Plug this into the equation to get his speed at 12:15

y=2(0.25)+40

y=0.5+40

y=40.5

So his speed was 40.5 at the time and since he was going 15 miles over the speed limit, the speed limit is 15 less than his speed

40.5 - 15 = 25.5

Answer:

25.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Bradley increases the speed of his car by 2 miles per hour.
12.00 pm: Bradley's speed = 40 mph
12.15 pm: Bradley is driving at 15 miles over the speed limit.

Calculate Bradley's speed at 12.15 pm:

60 minutes = 1 hour

⇒ 15 minutes = 1/4 hour

⇒ speed at 12.15 pm = speed at 12.00pm + 1/4 of 2 mph

= 40 mph + 0.5 mph

= 40.5 mph

If he was 15 miles over the speed limit at 12.15 pm then:

⇒ speed limit = speed at 12.15pm - miles over the limit

= 40.5 mph - 15

= 25.5 mph

Therefore, the speed limit was 25.5 mph.

Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points (5,2) and (-3,5)

anzhelika [568]

(5,2)(-3,5)
slope = (5 - 2) / (-3 - 5) = -3/8

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/8
use either of ur points...(5,2)...x = 5 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -3/8(5) + b
2 = - 15/8 + b
2 + 15/8 = b
16/8 + 15/8 = b
31/8 = b

so ur equation is : y = -3/8x + 31/8....or 3x + 8y = 31

Mrs. Stevens is wanting to buy new border for her math bulletin board in the hallway l. The length of the board is 6.9 meters. T

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The quantity of board which Mr. Stevens need to buy is 22.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of board = 6.9 meters

The width of board = 4.3 meters

Let The measure of new board = x meter

Now,

The measure of new board = The perimeter of board

∵ The board is of rectangle figure

As, The perimeter of rectangular board = 2 × Length + 2 × width

So, The measure of new board = 2 × Length + 2 × width

or, x = 2 × 6.9 + 2 × 4.3

or, x = 13.8 + 8.6

or, x = 22.4 meters

So, The measure of new board = x = 22.4 meters

Hence The quantity of board which Mr. Stevens need to buy is 22.4 meters Answer

Show that ( 2xy4 + 1/ (x + y2) ) dx + ( 4x2 y3 + 2y/ (x + y2) ) dy = 0 is exact, and find the solution. Find c if y(1) = 2.

fredd [130]

$\dfrac{\partial\left(2xy^4+\frac1{x+y^2}\right)}{\partial y}=8xy^3-\dfrac{2y}{(x+y^2)^2}$

$\dfrac{\partial\left(4x^2y^3+\frac{2y}{x+y^2}\right)}{\partial x}=8xy^3-\dfrac{2y}{(x+y^2)^2}$

so the ODE is indeed exact and there is a solution of the form $F(x,y)=C$ . We have

$\dfrac{\partial F}{\partial x}=2xy^4+\dfrac1{x+y^2}\implies F(x,y)=x^2y^4+\ln(x+y^2)+f(y)$

$\dfrac{\partial F}{\partial y}=4x^2y^3+\dfrac{2y}{x+y^2}=4x^2y^3+\dfrac{2y}{x+y^2}+f'(y)$

$f'(y)=0\implies f(y)=C$

$\implies F(x,y)=x^2y^3+\ln(x+y^2)=C$

With $y(1)=2$ , we have

$8+\ln9=C$

$\boxed{x^2y^3+\ln(x+y^2)=8+\ln9}$

A sofa regularly sells for 860. The sale price is 670.80. Find the percent decrease of the sale price from the regular price

andre [41]

Answer:

-22%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent decrease can be found by subtracting the original amount from the sale price. Divide the result by the original price and multiplying the decimal by 100 for the percent.

670.80 - 860 = -189.2

-189.2/860 = -0.22

-0.22*100 = -22%
