20 minutes = 1/3 of an hour

1/3 = 0.333

 1/3 x 45mph = 15, so she drove 15 miles at 45mph

18-15 = 3

3 miles/ 20 mph = 0.15 hours


0.333+0.15 = 0.483 hours total

0.483 x 60 = 28.98 so approximately 29 minutes total driving time

7:15 + 29 minutes is 7:44 am she arrived at work

A 4 metre ladder is placed against a vertical wall.
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Original position: base is 1.5 meters away from the wall and the vertical distance from the top end to the ground let it be y and length of the ladder be L.

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagorean theorem, L^2=y^2+(1.5)^2=y^2+2.25 Eq1.

Final position: base is 2 meters away, and the vertical distance from top end to the ground is y - 0.25 because it falls down the wall 0.25 meters and length of the ladder is also L.

By pythagorean theorem, L^2=(y -0.25)^2+(2)^2=y^2–0.5y+ 0.0625+4=y^2–0.5y+4.0625 Eq 2.

Equating both Eq 1 and Eq 2: y^2+2.25=y^2–0.5y+4.0625

y^2-y^2+0.5y+2.25–4.0625=0

0.5y- 1.8125=0

0.5y=1.8125

y=1.8125/0.5= 3.625

Using Eq 1: L^2=(3.625)^2+2.25=15.390625, L=(15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

Using Eq 2: L^2=(3.625)^2–0.5(3.625)+4.0625

L^2=13.140625–0.90625+4.0615=15.390625

L= (15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

The World Equity Index function shown contains two valuation metrics for the S&amp;P 500. The Verizon description page contains
Nikitich [7]

Answer: Verizon is less expensive than the S&P 500 on both a P/E and dividend yield basis.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a <em>Price to Earnings ratio is relatively high</em> this means that the <em>Price of the security is high </em>because investors believe the company has good prospects.

When a Dividend Yield is relatively low, this means that the dividends being declared are quite lower than the price because Dividend yield is dividends as a percentage of security price. <em>Lower Dividend Yields therefore mean high security prices</em>.

Looking at the Verizon Chart and the S&P 500 you see that Verizon P/E ratio is 11.71 while S&P is 19.01.

This means that the price of Verizon's is less than S&P 500.

Also notice that Verizon's Dividend yield is 4.09% while S&P 500's is 1.91% again signifying that Verizon is cheaper.

I have attached the full question.

Find an equation of the line that has the given slope and contains the given point. m=7/3 (1,6)
iris [78.8K]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We have the point (1, 6) and the slope m = 7/3. Substitute:

y-6=\dfrac{7}{3}(x-1)      <em>use distributive property</em>

y-6=\dfrac{7}{3}x-\dfrac{7}{3}          <em>add 6 to both sides</em>

y=\dfrac{7}{3}x+\dfrac{11}{3}        <em>multiply both sides by 3</em>

3y=7x+11           <em>subtract 7x from both sides</em>

-7x+3y=11         <em>change the signs</em>

7x-3y=-11

Answer:

point-slope form: y-6=\dfrac{7}{3}(x-1)

slope-intercept form: y=\dfrac{7}{3}x+\dfrac{11}{3}

standard form: 7x-3y=-11
