A bicyclist traveled with a speed of 12 km/h from a camping ground to a station, located 60 km away. Write a formula expressing

the dependence of the variable s on t, where s is the distance between the bicyclist and the station in km, t - the duration (time) of his travel in hours. Using the formula, find: d for t=3.5

1. The formula expressing the dependence of the variable s on t is: s = 60 - 12t

2. the distance travelled at time t = 3.5 h is 18 Km

<h3>What is speed? </h3>

Speed is the distance travelled per unit. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Speed = distance / time

<h3>1. How to determine the formula expressing the dependence of the variable s on t</h3>

From the question given, bicyclist traveled with a speed of 12 km/h from a camping ground to a station, located 60 km.

Thus, we shall determine the distance travel in time t as follow

  • Speed = 12 Km/h
  • Time = t
  • Distance in time t = ?

Speed = distance / time

12 = distance / t

Cross multiply

Distance = 12 × t

Distance in time t = 12t

But the total distance travelled is 60 Km. Thus, the remaining distance (s) from the bicyclist to the station at time (t) will be given as:

s = 60 - 12t

Thus, the formula expressing the dependence of the variable s on t is: s = 60 - 12t

<h3>2. How to determine the distance at t = 3.5 hours</h3>

The distance at t = 3.5 hours can be obtained as illustrated below:

  • Time (t) = 3.5 hours
  • Distance (s) = ?

s = 60 - 12t

s = 60 - (12 × 3.5)

s = 60 - 42

s = 18 Km

Thus, the distance travelled at t = 3.5 hours is 18 km

Math expressions that equal 13​
qaws [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

There can be a lot of math expressions that may equal 13. Here are some of the expressions that equal 13​.

  • 9 + 4 = 13
  • 15 - 2 = 13
  • 1 × 13 = 13

Now, let us consider some interesting expression

x^3-x^2+x+7

If the value of x = 2, then the expression will be equal to 13.

i.e.

2^3-2^2+2+7=13        ∵ when x = 2

Considering a word problem

<em>'Tom has 10 oranges while Tony has 3 more oranges than Tom. How many oranges Tony has?</em>

Let 'x' be the number of oranges Tom has.

The number of oranges Tony has = x + 3

as Tom has 10 oranges, so x = 10

Therefore, the number of oranges Tony has = x + 3

                                                                          = 10 + 3 = 13

Therefore, the number of oranges Tony has = 13

Meg and Tanner take a road trip together where they take turns driving. The ratio of the number of miles that Meg drives to the
frez [133]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{Meg}{Tanner} = \frac{4}{3}

total dist. driven = dist. Meg drove + dist. Tanner drove

Meg = 112

Tanner = x    or how far did Tanner drive?

\frac{112}{x} = \frac{4}{3}

\frac{3}{4} * 112 = x

84 =x   so Tanner drove 84 miles  

total driven = 112 + 84

total driven = 196    :)

alex buys a home for $276,400. his home is predicted to increase in value 3.5% each year. What is the predicted value of alex's
Katarina [22]
276400(0.035) = $9674 the equivalent value in dollar for every increase in the house then multiplied by 25. $9674*(25) = $241850 + the current value of Alex's home. $276400+ $241850 = $518250 that would be the value of Alex's home in 25  years. The percentage is (518250-276400)/ 276400 =0.875 *100 = 87.5 % increase in value. I hope this would help.

Rashaads sister gives him 2 pack of cards per month and 3 extra packs for his birthday there are 11 cards in a pack. How many ca
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: he got 297 cards in a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 months in a year. Rashaads sister gives him 2 pack of cards per month. This means that in a year, his sister would give him

2 × 12 = 24 packs of cards.

If there are 11 cards in a pack, then the number of cards that his sister gives him in a year would be

24 × 11 = 264 cards.

He also gets 3 extra packs for his birthday. It means that the number of cards that he gets for his birthday would be

3 × 11 = 33 cards.

Therefore, the total number of cards that he gets in a year is

264 + 33 = 297 cards
