Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
a=age
500 reduced by 2 times a is equal to 388
500-2a=388
minus 500 both sides
-2a=-112
divide both sides by -2
a=56
you are 56
Answer:
The slope is -7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ 7x + 4y = 10
∵ y = mx + c ⇒ where m is the slope of the line
∴ Re-arrange the equation
∴ 4y = 10 - 7x ⇒ ÷4
∴ y = 10/4 - (7/4) x
∴ y = 5/2 - (7/4) x
∴ The slope is -7/4
Height of the woman = 5 ft
Rate at which the woman is walking = 7.5 ft/sec
Let us assume the length of the shadow = s
Le us assume the <span>distance of the woman's feet from the base of the streetlight = x
</span>Then
s/5 = (s + x)/12
12s = 5s + 5x
7s = 5x
s = (5/7)x
Now let us differentiate with respect to t
ds/dt = (5/7)(dx/dt)
We already know that dx/dt = 7/2 ft/sec
Then
ds/dt = (5/7) * (7/2)
= (5/2)
= 2.5 ft/sec
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the rate at which the tip of her shadow is moving is 2.5 ft/sec.
Option a is true and others are false
Answer:
$86.55
Step-by-step explanation:
8.5% x 95 = 8.455
95 - 8.455 = 86.545 = $86.55
