The distance between David's home and the airport is 210 miles.

<h3>Distance traveled after 1 hour</h3>

let the distance traveled after first 1 hour = y

distance/speed = time

after 1 hour his speed = (35 + 15) = 50 mph

total time after 1 hour and 30 mins = 1.5 hr

y/50 + 1.5 = y/35

multiply through by350

7y + 525 = 10y

3y = 525

y = 525/3

y = 175 miles

In the first 1 hour, at 35 mph, distance covered = 35 miles

Distance from his home to airport = 175 miles + 35 miles = 210 miles

Thus, the distance between David's home and the airport is 210 miles.

A rectangular playground is to be fenced off and divided in two by another fence parallel to one side of the playground. Seven h
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the dimensions of the playground are x and y.

The total amount of the fence used is given and it is 780 ft. In terms of x and y this would be 3x+2y=780 (we add 3x because we want it to be cut in the middle). Therefore,  y= 780/2-3/2x. Now, the total area (A )to be fenced is

A=x*y= x*(390-3/2x)=-3/2 x^2+390x

Calculating the derivative of A and setting it equals to 0 to find the maximum

A'= -3x+390=0

This yields x=130.

Therefore y=780/2-3/2*130=195

Thus, the maximum area is 130*195=25,350ft^2

Archy [21]
The converse of any statement, true or false, is never always true. The only guaranteed true statement is a contrapositive of a true statement. A contrapositive is a statement where the hypothesis and conclusion are switched, and both sides are negated.
