Suppose that a storm front is traveling at 33 mph. When the storm is 13 miles away a storm chasing van starts pursuing an averag

e speed of 54 mph. How long does it take for the van to catch up with the storm? How far have they driven? (Hint: we can let our two variables be x= distance and t= time. Additionally, [speed x time= distance]. Won’t the van catch up when the distances are equal?
Please make it easy to understand your answer :)

Answer:

Time = X = 37.14 minutes

Distance they covered= 33.42 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance= speed * time

And the distance traveled by the two need to be equal.

Speed of storm = 33 mph

Speed of van = 54 mph

But storm is 13 miles away from van.

So

54*x = 33*x+ 13

54x-33x = 13

21x = 13

X= 0.62 hours

X = 37.14 minutes

54 *0.62= 33.42 miles.

Cos s=-2/5 and sin t=4/5, s and t are in quadrant II<br> find cos(s+t) and cos(s-t)
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

•cos(s+t) = cos(s)cos(t) - sin(s)sin(t) = (-⅖).(-⅗) - (√21 /5).(⅘) = +6/25 - 4√21 /25 = (6-4√21)/25

•cos(s-t) = cos(s)cos(t) + sin(s)sin(t) = (-⅖).(-⅗) + (√21 /5).(⅘) = +6/25 + 4√21 /25 = (6+4√21)/25

cos(t) = ±√(1 - sin²(t)) → -√(1 - sin²(t)) = -√(1 - (⅘)²) = -⅗

sin(s) = ±√(1 - cos²(s)) → +√(1- cos²(s)) = +√(1 - (-⅖)²) = √21 /5

3) You owe $1,842.66 on a credit card at a 14.5% APR. You pay $250.00 at the beginning of the month and put another $250.00 in a
Wittaler [7]

3. Credit Card: (1842.66 - 250) (.145/12) = $19.24

Savings: 250(0.04/12) = $0.83  

Difference = 19.24 - 0.83 = $18.41  

4. Credit Card: (1842.66 - 500) (.145/12) = $16.22

You will save $18.41 - $16.22 = $2.19 by putting all $500 toward the higher credit card rate.

The area of a rectangle is 8w + 18 square feet. The length of the rectangle is 2 feet. Use factoring to write an expression to r
qwelly [4]

Answer:

4w + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length x width (or base x height, depending on how you look at it).

It is given to you that:

Area = 8w + 18

Length = 2

Let: width = x

Plug in the corresponding terms with the corresponding words:

8w + 18 = 2x

Isolate the variable, x. Divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(8w + 18)/2 = (2x)/2

x = (8w + 18)/2

w = (8w)/2 + (18)/2

w = 4w + 9

4w + 9 is the expression that represents the width of the rectangle.
