The speed of one car is 'S'. The speed of the other car is (S + 10).
In 5 hours, the first car travels (5S) miles, and the other car travels 5(S + 10) miles.
Since they're going in opposite directions, the distance between them at any time
is the sum of the distance that each one has traveled.
500 = (5S) + 5(S + 10)
500 = 5S + 5S + 50
500 = 10S + 50
Subtract 50 from each side:
450 = 10S
Divide each side by 10
S = <u>45</u>
S + 10 = <u>55</u>
Answer: the first option is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle ABC is a right angle triangle.
From the given right angle triangle,
AB represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
With m∠A as the reference angle,
AC represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.
BC represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.
To determine the tangent of angle A, we would apply the Tangent trigonometric ratio. It is expressed as
Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,
Tan A = 5/5√3 = 1/√3
Rationalizing the surd, it becomes
1/√3 × √3/√3
Tan A = √3/3
We can use the vertex form of a quadratic,
, to find that
. Plugging
ordered pairs into g(x), we see that a = 1. For example, for
,
. Solving for a gives 1.
