To arrive at its destination on time the bus should have maintained a speed of vv kilometers per hour throughout the journey. In
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The actual duration of the trip is 8/9 times the normal duration or the bus arrived 1/9 times earlier than it would have at a constant speed of v kph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of bus in the first third distance = v kph

Speed of bus for the remaining two thirds = 1.2 v kph

To solve the question, we note that speed = distance/time

therefore time = distance/speed

Let the distance of the destination be D, then

Normal duration at speed v = D/v

Actual duration (D/3)÷v + (2D/3)÷(1.2v) ⇒ (1.2*D/3 + 2D/3)1.2v

= \frac{D}{3v} +\frac{5D}{9v} = (8/9)×D/v

Therefore the actual duration is 8/9 times the normal duration

Can you guys help?<br> Need to find x, BA, DA
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

x=2,BA=DA which is7

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3=3x+1

both sides share an angle and B=D right angles

5x-3x=1+3

2x=4

x=4÷2

x=2

BA=5x-3

BA=5(2)-3

BA=10-3

BA=7

DA=3x+1

DA=3(2)+1

DA=6+1

DA=7

John is trying to drain a swimming pool. He has two pumps, but he can only use one at a time. He knows that the time a pump take
xeze [42]
What do you mean this sentence?
the time a pump takes to drain the pool varies inversely with the power in watts of the pump,
The meaning would be : if we have a power in watts greater the time to drag the pool will be less because the relation between power and time is inverse.  

40 watts--------------5 hours) 
100 watts------------  x

because the relation between power and time is inverse, we multiply directly.
40 watts(5 hours)=100 watts x
x=(200 watts hours) / 100 watts=2 hours.

Answer: the time would be 2 hours.   (the new pump is faster)

Given the quadratic equation below, determine which situation it could represent? x2 -4x = 60
yarga [219]

Answer:

The solution is x = 10 and x = -6. This quadratic could be represented in factored form as (x - 10)(x + 6) or on a graph with x-intercepts at (10,0) and (-6,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the quadratic, write the quadratic in standard form and factor the equation.

x² - 4x = 60

x² - 4x - 60 = 0

(x - 10)(x + 6) = 0

x = 10 and x = -6
