Answer:

x = 7.5 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

• First calculate the distance covered by walking at 3 km/h for 45 minutes ( 0.75 h):

distance = speed × time

= 3 × 0.75

= 2.25 km

• Therefore, she covered 2.25 km of the total journey by walking. Since she was 6 km from the starting point at the end of the entire journey, we can calculate the distance remaining, which she had to run:

distance she had to run = 6 - 2.25

= 3.75 km

• Now we can calculate the speed of the 30 minute (0.5 h) run:

speed = distance ÷ time

= 3.75 ÷ 0.5

= 7.5 km/h

This means that she ran at 7.5 km/h for half an hour.

∴ x = 7.5

What is the Derivative of y=sec(x2)y=sec(x^2)?

wolverine [178]

$y=sec(x^2)=\frac{1}{cos(x^2)}=[cos(x^2)]^{-1}\\\\y'=-cos(x^2)^{-2}\cdot[-sin(x^2)]\cdot2x\\\\=\frac{1}{cos^2(x^2)}\cdot sin(x^2)\cdot2x=\frac{2xsin(x^2)}{cos(x^2)cos(x^2)}=2x\cdot\frac{sin(x^2)}{cos(x^2)}\cdot\frac{1}{cos(x^2)}\\\\=\boxed{2xtg(x^2)sec(x^2)}$

Use the formula for the area of a triangle, and fill in the given information.
.. A = (1/2)*b*h
.. 36 in^2 = (1/2)*b*(9 in)
.. (72 in^2)/(9 in) = b . . . . . . . . multiply by 2, divide by 9 in
.. 8 in = b

The base is "none of the above", 8 inches.

_____
This question has a couple of problems:
.. 1) area is not measured in "inches"; it is measured in "square inches."
.. 2) ALL of the offered answer choices are INCORRECT.
