Using the relation between velocity, distance and time, it is found that his jogging rate was of 4.5 mph.

<h3>What is the relation between velocity, distance and time?</h3>

Velocity is <u>distance divided by time,</u> hence:

v = \frac{d}{t}

Jogging, his velocity was of v, while the time was of t + 2, for a distance of 10 miles, hence:

v = \frac{10}{t + 2}

Riding, his velocity was of 16, while the time was of t, also for a distance of 10 miles, hence:

v + 16 = \frac{10}{t}

Then, considering the first equation and replacing in the second:

\frac{10}{t + 2} + 16 = \frac{10}{t}

\frac{10}{t} - \frac{10}{t + 2} = 16

\frac{10t + 20 - 10t}{t(t + 2)} = 16

16t² + 32t - 20 = 0 -> t = 0.5.

Then his jogging rate in mph was:

v = \frac{10}{0.5 + 2} = 4.5

Jorge received a 3.1% increase in his pay at work. If he now makes $8.00 per hour, how much was he making before his raise? (Rou
Blababa [14]

Answer:

$7.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount he was making before the raise.

He had an increase of 3.1% of x added to x which resulted in a new salary of $8.00 per hour.

Mathematically:

(\frac{3.1}{100} * x) + x = 8\\\\0.031x + x = 8\\\\1.031x = 8\\\\=> x = 8 / 1.031

x = $7.76

He was making $7.76 before the raise.

What is the area of the shaded region?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

141.37 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If we're going off of the blue shaded region, the area of the full circle is 254.47 cm^2. Then we calculate the area of the inner circle. This gives you 113.1. Now you must subtract the area of the inner circle by the area of the outer circle. 254.47-113.1. This gives you 141.37, which should be your answer.

Is 5x+6y=1 a direct variation? (yes or no only)
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
Direct variation is y=kx
indirect variation is y=k/x

if we can get it into that form, then it is

5x+6x=1
6y=-5x+1
y=(-5/6)x+1/6
yes


-4x+9y=4
9y=4x+4
y=(4/9)x+4/8
yes
