Answer:

 If they start moving towards each other simultaneously it will take 5 hours to meet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Motorcycle:

  Distance = 540 miles

  Speed = 48 mph

  Time taken = Distance/Speed = 11.25 hours.

Car:

  Distance = 540 miles

  Time taken = 11.25 -2.25 = 9 hours.

  Speed = Distance/Time = 540/9 = 60 mph

  If they start moving towards each other simultaneously, they will travel a combined distance of 540 miles and Let the time be t hours.

  We have

              48 t + 60 t = 540

               108 t = 540

                      t = 540/108 = 5 hours.

If they start moving towards each other simultaneously it will take 5 hours to meet.

A tablet computer costs 189.69. it is marked up 30%. What is the final price of the tablet computer after its marked up.
saveliy_v [14]
The initial cost is 189.69. It is marked up 30%.

By simple calculations, 

Final cost of the tablet computer = Initial price + 30% of marked price

= 189.69 + (30/100 x 189.69)

This gives us the net value of 245.7. Hence the price of the computer after it's been marked up will be 245.7

Need help with this question

First, let's find the slope of the line using the slope formula, which is:

m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

((x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) are points on the line)


In context of this problem, we can use the formula to find the slope of the line between the two points:

m = \dfrac{-2 -6}{7 - (-1)} = \dfrac{-8}{8} = -1


Now, we can use the slope in the point-slope formula, which will help us find the final equation of the line. (For reference, the point-slope formula is (y - y_1) = m(x - x_1) where (x_1, y_1) is a point on the line)


In the context of the problem, we could use the formula to find the equation of the line:

(y - 6) = -1(x + 1)

(y - 6) = -x - 1

\boxed{y = -x + 5}


The equation of the line is y = -x + 5.

Solve for p. 3/5(p - 3) = -4
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

p = 3.6666(repeating)

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5(p-3)=-4

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

3/5(p-3)=-4

Simplifying:

+ 0.6*(p-3)=-4

Reorder the terms in parentheses

+( + 0.6p-1.8)=-4

Remove unnecessary parentheses

+ 0.6p-1.8=-4

We move all terms containing p to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+ 0.6p=-4+1.8

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+ 0.6p=-2.2

We divide both sides of the equation by 0.6 to get p.  

p=-3.66666666667
