The distance from friend's village to Lucas's house is 45 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume the distance from Lucas home to friend's village is x miles

The time taken to cycle from Lucas home to friend's village is 3 hrs....t₁

The time taken if travelling at a 5 mph reduced speed is 1.5 hrs longer......t₂

t₂=4.5 hrs

t₁= 3 hrs

Speed for cycle in first instance, where t₁=3 hrs and distance is x miles

s₁=d/t = x/3 mph

Speed for cycle if travelling at a slower speed,

s=\frac{x}{3}-5

Time taken in the second instance when travelling at a slower speed

=\frac{x}{\frac{x}{3}-5 }=4.5\\ \\\frac{3x}{x-15} =4.5\\\\\\3x=4.5(x-15)\\\\3x=4.5x-67.5\\\\\\67.5=4.5x-3x\\\\\\67.5=1.5x\\\\\\67.5/1.5=x\\\\\\45=x

The distance from friend's village to Lucas's house is 45 miles

Question 2 of 4
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The time it took for the bottle rocket to reach a height of 200 feet is 60 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for the height of the bottle rocket (in feet), <em>t</em> seconds after  it is launched is:

h(t)=1157-16\ t

Compute the value of <em>t</em> as follows:

h(t)=1157-16\ t

200=1157-16t

 16t=1157-200\\16t=957\\

     t=59.8125\\t\approx60

Thus, the time it took for the bottle rocket to reach a height of 200 feet is 60 seconds.
