Answer:
something smaller than 1/483.33, possibly 1/500
Step-by-step explanation:
For the model to fit into the car, the scale must be less than ...
(3 ft)/(1450 ft) = 1/483.33
It might be convenient for Jeff to use a scale factor of 1 : 500. This would result in a model ...
(1450 ft)/500 · (12 in/ft) = 34.8 in
leaving about 1.2 inches of clearance in his mother's car.
If it is 41/3, then the answer would be 13 and 2/3. If it is 4/13, then there would be no mixed number. Sorry. It is hard to tell because there is no slash to represent where the numerator and the denominator is.
Given:
t1 = 3.6 h
t2 = 4.5 h
x = speed of boat
y = speed of water
Required:
a) Expression of distance traveled with moving water with 3.6h
Expression of distance traveled with moving water with 4.5h
b) Solve for y
c) Percent of boat's speed is the water current
Solution:
Working formula: distance = velocity*time
a) For travelling downstream, we get the equation
d = (x +y)*3.6
For travelling upstream, we get the equation
d = (x-y)*4.5
b) Setting the distance as equal for travelling upstream or downstream, we arrive at the equation of
(x+y)*3.6 = (x-y)*4.5
3.6x + 3.6y = 4.5x - 4.5y
8.1y =0.9x
y = x/9
c) percentage = 1/9*100% = 11.1%
<em>ANSWERS: a) d = (x+y)*36; d = (x-y)*4.5
</em> <em>b) y = x/9
</em> <em>c) 11.1%</em>
Top left:
7x-44 = 4x+4
7x-4x = 4+44
3x = 48
x = 16
8y-43 = 39+(7(16)-44)
8y = 39+68+43
8y = 150
y = 18.75
Answer:
it would take 3/5 of an hour or 0.6 as a decimal
Step-by-step explanation:
3 3/4 divided by 2 1/4 is 3/5 or 0.6
Hope this helped!
