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.

A label is placed around the juice box below, not including the bases. Determine the surface area of the label
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

3 In²

Step-by-step explanation:

Talking about surface area, the total area of an object is taken into consideration.

NB: Kindly check the attached picture for the diagram of the 3D object.

In this question, the surface area has to be determined and we will have to take into consideration all the area of the 3D object given in the question.

Surface Area = 6 × k².

Surface area = 6 × ( 1.8 × 1.8) cm².

Surface Area = 19.44 cm².

The next thing to do here is to convert the cm² to in². Therefore, 19.44 cm² ------>  x in².

19.44 × 0.155 in² = 3 in².

What's 2sin(2theta)=1? Need it for webassign.
lutik1710 [3]
<em>Solve: </em>2sin(2x) = 1

Divide both sides by 2.
sin(2x) = \frac{1}{2}

Take the sine inverse of both sides:
2x = sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})
2x = \frac{\pi}{6}, \frac{5\pi}{6}, 0 \leq x \leq 2\pi
x = \frac{\pi}{12}, \frac{5\pi}{12}

But we know there are more solutions if we extend the domain. In fact, there are infinitely more solutions since the domain of sine is all real x values.
Thus, we can develop a general solution:

For every \pi units, there is another solution for both \frac{\pi}{12} and \frac{5\pi}{12}

General solutions:
x = \pi n + \frac{\pi}{12}, n \in \mathbb{Z}
x = \pi n + \frac{5\pi}{12}, n \in \mathbb{Z}

Which list of ordered pairs represents solutions to x + y= 2 ?
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

(-4, 6), (0, 2), (4, -2). You can find this by adding the x and y to see which ones get 2. -4 + 6 = 2. 0 + 2 = 2. 4 + -2 = 2.
