7 0

In this question, you are given an equation with < (less than) sign. You can solve this equation and treat the less than sign same as an equal sign. The only difference is when you mirroring the equation or multiplying both sides with minus, which will change the direction of the sign. The calculation should be:
-24 < x-3 -8 x
-24 +3 < x - 8x
-21 < -7x
-21/-7 <x
3 <x
x>3

The answer is D.×>3

A boat takes 4 hours to go 20 miles upstream. It can go 32 miles downstream in the same time. Find the rate of the current and t

KonstantinChe [14]

Let the boat speed in still water be b.
Let the current speed be c.
The speed going upstream is 20/4 = 5 mph.
The speed going downstream is 32/4 = 8 mph.
b - c = 5 ........(1)
b + c = 8 .......(2)
Adding equations (1) and (2) we get:
2b = 13
b = 13/2 = 6.5
Plugging in the value for b into equation (1) we find c = 1.5.
The boat speed in still water is 6.5 mph and the current speed is 1.5 mph.

The function L = 0.8T^2 models the relationship between L, the length in feet of a pendulum, and T, the period in seconds of the

Semmy [17]

The correct option is "d".
Given that L = 0.8T²
length of pendulum = 30ft

L= 0.8T²
30 = 0.8T²
T² = 30 / 0.8
T² = 37.5
T = √37.5 = 6.1 seconds
<span>So, 6.1 is the closest to the period in seconds for a pendulum that is 30 ft long.</span>

Please help! I'm getting timed.

Molodets [167]

Hi there! The answer is A.

$t = 2(s + 2)$
To get a proper idea of the type of function this formula represents we work out the parenthesis.

Working out the parenthesis can for instance be done using rainbow technique.
$t = 2s + 4$

We can now see sinilarities between this function an the general function of a line in slope intercept form
$y = mx + n$

The function t therefore describes a line with slope 2 and y-intercept 4. Therefore the answer is A.

Twice the sum of a number and 8 is the same aa the difference of 3 and the number. Find the equation that could be used to find

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

f your number is x, then the difference between that number and 8 would be x-8. Twice that is 2(x-8)

Three times the sum of the number and 3 would be 3(x+3). So, you get the equation:

2(x-8)=3(x+3)

2x-16=3x+9

x=-25
