Two buses leave a station at the same time and travel in opposite directions. One bus travels 15 /kmh faster than the other. If

the two buses are 366km apart after 2 hours, what is the rate of each bus? Note that the ALEKS graphing calculator can be used to make computations easier.

Since the buses travel in opposite directions, the speed at which they distance themselves is the sum of their speeds.
One bus travels at speed s.
The other bus travels at speed s + 15.
The sum of the speeds is s + s + 15 = 2s + 15

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

366 = (2s + 15) * 2

183 = 2s + 15

168 = 2s

s = 84

The slower bus travels at 84 km/h.

s + 15 = 84 + 15 = 99

The faster bus travels at 99 km/h.

Check:
In 2 hours, the slower bus travels 2 * 84 km = 168 km
In 2 hours, the faster bus travels 2 * 99 km = 198 km
In 2 hours, the buses are 198 km + 168 km = 366 km apart.
Our answer is correct.

The area of the small shape is 35 square feet. The big shape is larger by a scale factor of 4/3. Find the area of the large shap
sdas [7]

Answer:

Option a) 62.2 square feet  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The dilation is a non-rigid transformation that produces similar figures

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

Let

z ----> the scale factor

x ----> the area of the large shape

y ----> the area of the small shape

so

z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=\frac{4}{3}

y=35\ ft^2

substitute

(\frac{4}{3})^{2}=\frac{x}{35}

\frac{16}{9}=\frac{x}{35}

solve for x

x=\frac{16}{9}(35)=62.2\ ft^2

Answer:

Gemma

9 X 150 = 1350

61000/100 X 2 =1220

add together $2570

Fred

14350/100x2=287

200 + 287 = $487

Erik

4 X 160 = 640

153000/100 X 2.5 = 3825

3825 + 640 = $4465

Allison

510000/100x0.5 = $2550

The exact temperature of a glass of water in degrees Celsius
alina1380 [7]
<span>The temperature of water in a glass if room temperature is 21 degrees Celsius if a glass is standing one in that room, because room temperature is commonly given as 20 to 22 degrees Celsius, however, if the air in the room goes through temperature variations,then a body of water will heat up or cool down,then the temperature of the water in the glass tends to average out those temperature variations.</span>
