Distance = rate * time
time = distance / rate
rate = distance / time
<span><span><span>
*******Distance ****Time ****** Rate *****</span> <span>
Randy   540             3t  </span><span>             r
</span></span></span>Andy     <span>135               t             </span><span>r -15
 </span>
<span> <span> <span> Randy;s Rate= </span> </span> </span> 540 / 3t
Andy's Rate = 135 / t

Andy's rate was 15 mph slower than Randy's so:
540 / 3t = (135 / t) + 15

540 = 405 + 45t
135 = 45t
time = 3 hours (Andy's Time)
Therefore Randy's Time = 9 hours

Randy's Rate = 540 / 9 = 60 mph
Andy's Rate = 135 / 3 = 45 mph

lara [203]

The radius of the circle tangent to sides AC and BC and to the circumcircle of triangle ABC.

r= 24.

<h3>What is the radius of the circle tangent to sides AC and BC and to the circumcircle of triangle ABC.?</h3>

Generally, the equation for side lengths AB is  mathematically given as

Triangle ABC has side lengths

Where

  • AB = 65,
  • BC = 33,
  • AC = 56.

Hence

r √ 2 · (89 √ 2/2 − r √ 2) = r(89 − 2r),

r = 89 − 65

r= 24.

In conclusion, The radius of the circle tangent to sides AC and BC and to the circumcircle of triangle ABC.

r= 24.
