Given Data:

Time is taken = 24 seconds (to pass the pole)

Length of the train = 240 m

To Find:

Time to pass a 650m long platform =?

Solution:

The total distance traveled by train to cross a pole is equal to the length of the train; 240 m.

Distance = 240 m (in case of a pole)

Speed = distance/ time

Speed = 240 m/ 24 seconds

Speed = 10 m/s

So, the speed our train is traveling is 10 m/s.

Now, the time taken by the same train to cross a platform of 650 m can be calculated as,

Total distance = 650 m (platform length) + 240 m (train length)

Total distance = 890 m

Speed = distance/ time

Time = distance/ speed

Time = 890 m / 10m/s

Time = 89 seconds.

So, the time that it will take a train with a speed of 10 m/s and 240 m long to cross a plate form of 650 m is 89 seconds.

<em><u>Problem One</u></em>

Remark

You don't pay a sales tax until cash is exchanged for goods or services.

So what is 70% off

Solution

Sale price = given price * (100% - 70%)

Sale Price = 72 * 30%

Sale Price = 72 * 30/100

Sale Price = 72 * 0.3

Sale Price = 21.6 dollars.

The sales tax is 5% of this amount

21.6 * 5/100 = 1.08

The total cost is = 21.6 + 1.08 = 22.68

Problem Two

If they marked up 100%, effectively they doubled the price.

New Price = old price + 100% of old price.

New Price = 48.50 + 48.50 = 97 dollars.

The sales tax is 6% * 97 = 6/100 * 97 = 5.82

Total Cost = Cost of item + Tax

Total Cost =97 + 5.82

Total Cost = 102.82 Answer <<<<

At what time would you reach 15ft above the water if you jump off a cliff using the formulaH(t)=-16t^2+8t+24
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

  1.079 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find t when H(t) = 15.

  15 = -16t^2 +8t +25

  10/16 = t^2 -1/2t . . . . . . subtract 24, divide by -16

  10/16 + 1/16 = t^2 -1/2t +(1/4)^2 . . . . . add (1/4)^2 to complete the square

  11/16 = (t -1/4)^2

  t -1/4 = √(11/16) . . . . . take the positive square root

  t = 1/4 +(√11)/4 = (1+√11)/4 . . . . use a common denominator

You would be 15 ft above the water at t = (1+√11)/4 ≈ 1.079 seconds.

Which equations and/or functions represent the graphed line? Select three options.
9966 [12]

Answer:

Point slope form : y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)

Slope intercept form: y=\frac{1}{2}(x)+2

Standard form : -x+2y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph it is clear that the line is passing through the points, (-4, 0), (-2, 1), (0, 2), and (2, 3).

If a line passes through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2), then the equation of line is

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

Let as consider any two points of the line:  (2, 3) and (0, 2).

The equation of line is

y-3=\frac{2-3}{0-2}(x-2)

y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)

The point slope form of the line is y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x-2).

y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x)-\frac{1}{2}(2)

y-3=\frac{1}{2}(x)-1

Add 3 on both sides.

y=\frac{1}{2}(x)-1+3

y=\frac{1}{2}(x)+2

Therefore the slope intercept form of the line is y=\frac{1}{2}(x)+2.

Multiply both sides by 2.

2y=x+4

-x+2y=4

Therefore, the standard form of the line is -x+2y=4.
