Answer:

23.3333333 miles per hour

23 1/3 miles per hour

10.43093333333333 meters / second

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the distance and divide by the time to find the speed

70 miles / 3 hours

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

1 hours = 3600 seconds

70 miles /3 hours * 1 mile /1609.34 meters * 1 hours / 3600 seconds

10.43093333333333 meters / second

Step-by-step explanation:

speed is normally measured in unit time meaning either per hour,second,minute etc

therefore for this question you will have to find what it travels per hour

if 70 is in three hours what about one hour

therefore

70/3=23.3'

so the speed will be 23.3miles per hour

(the apostrophe is to show recurring you can also round of and ignore it)

Please help me find the area of shaded region and step by step

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Part 1) $A=60\ ft^2$

Part 2) $A=80\ cm^2$

Part 3) $A=96\ m^2$

Part 4) $A=144\ cm^2$

Part 5) $A=9\ m^2$

Part 6) $A=(49\pi -33)\ in^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

The shaded region is equal to the area of the complete rectangle minus the area of the interior rectangle

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=bh$

where

b is the base of rectangle

h is the height of rectangle

$A=(12)(7)-(8)(3)$

$A=84-24$

$A=60\ ft^2$

Part 2) we know that

The shaded region is equal to the area of the complete rectangle minus the area of the interior square

The area of square is equal to

$A=b^2$

where

b is the length side of the square

$A=(12)(8)-(4^2)$

$A=96-16$

$A=80\ cm^2$

Part 3) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of four rectangles plus the area of one square

$A=4(4)(5)+(4^2)$

$A=80+16$

$A=96\ m^2$

Part 4) we know that

The shaded region is equal to the area of the complete square minus the area of the interior square

$A=(15^2)-(9^2)$

$A=225-81$

$A=144\ cm^2$

Part 5) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of triangle minus the area of rectangle

The area of triangle is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)$

where

b is the base of triangle

h is the height of triangle

$A=\frac{1}{2}(6)(7)-(6)(2)$

$A=21-12$

$A=9\ m^2$

Part 6) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of the circle minus the area of rectangle

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

where

r is the radius of the circle

$A=\pi (7^2)-(3)(11)$

$A=(49\pi -33)\ in^2$

I need a answer to this question please help

Burka [1]

Since the triangles are similar, the slope of line segment AD and line segment BD are the same.
The initial value and slope of the graph are 66 and 44 respectively.

<h3>Why are the two slopes the same?</h3>

Considering the two right-angled triangles (ΔABD and ΔBCE) with the following points A(2, 154), B(1, 110), D(2, 110) and E(1, 66).

Since the triangles are similar, the slope of line segment AD is given by:

Tanθ = AD/BE

Tanθ = (154 - 110)/(110 - 66)

Tanθ = 44/44

Tanθ = 1.

Also, the slopes of line segment BD is given by:

Tan∅ = BD/CE

Tan∅ = (2 - 1)/(1 - 0)

Tan∅ = 1/1

Tan∅ = 1.

Therefore, the slope of line segment AD and line segment BD are the same because θ is equal to ∅.

<h3>What are the initial value and slope of the graph?</h3>

By critically observing the graph, we can logically deduce that the initial value of this graph is 66 and it represents the shark's distance at the initial time (0 minute).

For the slope, we have:

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = (154 - 66)/(2 - 0)

Slope = 88/2

Slope = 44.
