Beth's speed was 60 mph.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>
  • The speed (commonly referred to as v) of an object in everyday use and kinematics is the magnitude of the change in its position over time or the magnitude of the change in its position per unit of time; it is thus a scalar quantity.
  • The distance traveled by an object in a time interval is divided by the duration of the interval; the instantaneous speed is the limit of the average speed as the duration of the time interval approaches zero.
  • Velocity is not the same as speed.

To find what was Beth's speed:

Beth's data:

  • time = 2 hrs; rate = r mph; distance = r×t = 2r miles

Tim's data:

  • time = 1 hr; rate = r-6 mph; distance = r-6 miles

Equation:

  • distance + distance = 174 miles

So,

  • 2r + r - 6 = 174
  • 3r - 6 = 174
  • 3r = 180
  • r = 60 mph (Beth's rate)
  • r-6 = 54 mph (Tims's rate)

Therefore, Beth's speed was 60 mph.

Triangle J is shown below. James drew a scaled version of Triangle J using a scale factor of 4 and labeled it
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

The area of triangle K is 16 times greater than the area of triangle J

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If Triangle K is a scaled version of Triangle J

then

Triangle K and Triangle J are similar

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z -----> the scale factor

Ak ------> the area of triangle K

Aj -----> the area of triangle J

so

z^{2}=\frac{Ak}{Aj}

we have

z=4

substitute

4^{2}=\frac{Ak}{Aj}

16=\frac{Ak}{Aj}

Ak=16Aj

therefore

The area of triangle K is 16 times greater than the area of triangle J

What is the value of m?
Dima020 [189]

\huge \underline \mathcal{Answer}

The given angles forms linear pair, and we know the angles forming linear pair are supplementary,

Therefore,

Angle MHJ + Angle MHL = 180°

Let's solve :

  • (5m + 100) \degree + (2 m + 10) \degree = 180 \degree

  • 7m + 110 \degree = 180 \degree

  • 7m = 70 \degree

  • m = 10 \degree

Value of variable m = 10°
