Answer:

200km

Step-by-step explanation:

Car A purchase worth = $14000

Car B purchase worth = $15000

Car A drive worth= 25€ per km

Car B drive worth= 20€ per km

For the worth of the two cars to be equal let's first assume all of the currency to be in dollars$

For A

Worth= 14000+25(x)

For B

Worth= 15000+20(x)

Where x is the distance covered

For the both worth to be equal we equate.

14000+25(x)= 15000+20(x)

25x-20x= 15000-14000

5x= 1000

X= 200

The distance covered by the two cars for the worth to be equal is 200km

The midpoint of RS¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is M. Use the given endpoint R(23, 14) and midpoint M(13, 8) to find the coordinates of the other endp

Oksanka [162]

The coordinates of other endpoint S is (3, 2)

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that midpoint of RS is M

Given endpoint R(23, 14) and midpoint M(13, 8)

To find: coordinates of the other endpoint S

<em><u>The formula for midpoint is given as:</u></em>

For a line containing containing two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ midpoint is given as:

$m(x, y)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

Here in this problem,

m(x, y) = (13, 8)

$(x_1, y_1) = (23, 14)\\\\(x_2, y_2) = ?$

Substituting the given values in above formula, we get

$(13,8)=\left(\frac{23+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{14+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

Comparing both the sides we get,

$\begin{aligned}&13=\frac{23+x_{2}}{2} \text { and } 8=\frac{14+y_{2}}{2}\\\\&26=23+x_{2} \text { and } 16=14+y_{2}\\\\&x_{2}=3 \text { and } y_{2}=2\end{aligned}$

Thus the coordinates of other endpoint S is (3, 2)

An element with mass 590 grams decays by 19. 5% per minute. How much of the element is remaining after 15 minutes, to the neares

solmaris [256]

Answer:

Step 1

Formulate a recursive sequence modeling the number of grams after n minutes.

we have that

100%-17.1%-------------- > 82.9%------------> 0.829

a(n) = 780*[0.829^n]

for n=19 minutes

a(19)=780*[0.829^(19)]=22.1121 g---------------> 22.1 g

the answer is 22.1 g
