A. because he had ridden less than 140 so 5s >140

He has ridden LESS than 140km. He has ridden for 5 hours.

d=vt, distance equals velocity times time.

5s=d

5s=140 but remember he has ridden LESS than 140 km so:

5s<140

The answer is D.

note:

From the above it follows that s<140/5, s<28km/h

s cannot be greater than or equal to 28 because:

5*28=140 and we are told that he rode LESS than 140km.

Just clarifying why 5s>140 is wrong.

A car travels 2.5 hours in a northerly Direction for 300 KM. what is the speed and velocity

STatiana [176]

Speed is distance traveled per block of time. As an equation, this is
Speed = distance/time

In your problem, the given distance is 300km, and the time is 2.5 hours.
Plugging into the equation,
Speed = 300km / 2.5 h
Speed = 120 km/h

Velocity is speed <em>and</em> direction.
The velocity would be 120 km/h north.

Which is bigger 3/4 or 2/3

tia_tia [17]

When we make it into a common denominator, find a common multiple between the denominators. For this instance, it is 3/4=9/12 2/3=8/12 When we see it with a common denominator, 3/4 is bigger than 2/3.

Simplify sin^2y/sec^2 y−1 to a single trigonometric function

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

$\frac{ { \sin}^{2} y}{ { \sec}^{2}y - 1 } = { \cos }^{2} y$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that ${ \tan }^{2} y = { \sec }^{2} y - 1$

Also , ${ \tan}^{2} y = \frac{ { \sin }^{2} y}{ { \cos }^{2}y }$

So ,

$\frac{ { \sin }^{2}y }{ { \sec }^{2}y - 1 } = \frac{ { \sin}^{2} y}{ { \tan }^{2} y} = \frac{ { \sin }^{2}y }{ \frac{ { \sin}^{2} y}{ { \cos}^{2}y } } = { \cos }^{2} y$
