We can figure out how long Michael's trip took by realizing that 30 mph is 3 times 10 mph.  Because of this, the trip home will take 1/3 the amount of time it took to go up the hill.  This makes the equation 24 + 8 = 32 minutes for the whole trip.

Now we need to figure out how long the trip was.  We can do this by multiplying 10 minutes by 24/60, which equals 4.  This means that Michael went 4 miles there, and 4 miles back.  So Michael went a total of 8 miles.

Now we know that Michael went 8 miles in 32 minutes.  Now, we multiply 8 by 60/32.  This gives us 15, so Michael went 15 miles per hour on average in the trip.

Solve the equation: Sin2x - Sinx = 0
Viktor [21]
We know that sin2x=2sinxcosx 
(search the net for proof if you wish) 

So the original equation becomes

2sinxcosx-sinx=0
The two terms both have sinx that can be taken out to get: 

sinx(2cosx-1)=0 
This is true if sinx=0 or 2cosx-1=0 , rewritten: cosx=1/2

sinx=0 than x=2kπ
cosx=1/2 than x=π/3+2kπ
where k is an integer

Does a=2.1 b=7.2 c=7.5 form a right triangle
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

If the longest side squared is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides then they form a right triangle

longest side = 7.5

7.5² = 56.25

2.1² + 7.2² = 4.41 + 51.84 = 56.25

Thus the 3 values form a right triangle.

We want to find the mass of 1 onion

Hence

0.75 kgcortos = 5 onions

      x cortos = 1 onions

x= 0.75/5

x= 0.15kg

Hence 1 onion will weigh 0.15kg
