The function that represents Wayne´s elevation:
y = 30 x - 105
The function that represents Winston´s elevation:
- 100 = 0 m + b
b = -100
-16 = 3m - 100
3 m = 84
m = 84 : 3 = 28
y = 28 x - 100
Surface level: y = 0
Wayne:
0 = 30 x - 105
x = 3.5 minutes
Winston:
0 = 28 x - 100
x = 3.57 minutes
If they both ascend at the same rate, Wayne will be first to the surface.
Answer:
B, 2,010
Hope this helps have a nice day/night :)
For solving this we need the change in distance and the change in time. You said that the change in time is 1.8 seconds and the change in distance is 3.6 meters. ( This is assuming it started at 0 meters and started at 0 seconds )
Since the starting was 0,0 we can toss them out as they add no value. Now since speed is labeled (in this case) m/s, we divide how many meters it traveled over how many seconds it took to travel it.
3.6 / 1.8 = 2
The average speed of the cart is 2 m/s
Hint: the sum of the angles is equal to 180 in a triangle. could you make an equation to use that?
3x+13, 7x+2, and 75 are the three angle values. They will sum up to 180.
Steps:
We set the equation to:
3x+13+7x+2+75=180
We can combine some terms
10x+90=180
Then, we isolate x
10x=90
And we divide by 10
x=9
Great! but we are not done yet. We want the measure of angle A, so we need to plug x back into the equation for angle a
3(9)+13
Multiply
27+13
Add
40
