<span>B. 285/302. This is the correct answer because it is the only choice which is roughly the same ratio as 47.5/50.5 which is the ratio needed to determine how long it would take to go 47 1/2 miles in a car that averages 50 1/2 miles per hour. The mathematical equation which represents the problem is: 50.5/1 = 47.5/A (A = hours) which is the same as 50.5 A = 47.5 which means A = 47.5/50.5 which means A = .94 hours. 285/302 also equals .94.</span>

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(5+x) * 5 = 10^2

Distribute

25 +5x = 100

Subtract 25 from each side

25-25 +5x = 100-25

5x= 75

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 75/5

x = 15

Two trains are traveling towards each other at a constant speed. The trains are currently 714 miles from each other. The speeds
shutvik [7]
55mph.

you can solve it using the equation distance=speed x time

your total distance is 714, and you have 2 trains, one traveling some speed, x, and one traveling x+8, both traveling for 7 hours. 
your equation would look like this
714 = x(7) + (x+8)(7)
and you can then solve for x, which would be 47. this is the speed of the slower train, but 47+8=55 with give you the speed of the faster train.

Two boys decided to buy a computer. The second boy had 5/6 of the money the first had. The first boy had 7/8 of the price of the
UNO [17]

Answer:

The price of the computer is $1,152

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the computer be $x

The first boy boy had 7/8 of this amount, the amount he has is thus 7/8 × $x = 7x/8

The second boy had 5/6 of what the first boy had. The amount of money he has is thus 5/6 × 7x/8 = 35x/48

Now, the addition of what they have is $696 more than what they need to pay. This amount is x+ 696

Mathematically, this can be represented as;

7x/8 + 35x/48 = x + 696

(42x + 35x)/48 = (x + 696)

77x/48 = (x + 696)

77x = 48(x + 696)

77x = 48x + 33408

77x - 48x = 33408

29x = 33, 408

x = 33,408/29

x = $1,152

Katie bought 2 one gallon bottles for a party. Her guest drank 5/4 gallons of juice. What is the fraction of juice leftover? Sho
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

3/4 gallons of juice

Step-by-step explanation:

Katie bought 2 one-gallon bottles for a party.

2 one-gallon bottles = 2-gallon bottles of juice

We are told that:

Her guest drank 5/4 gallons of juice.

The fraction of juice leftover is calculated as:

2 gallons of juice - 5/4 gallons of juice

2 - 5/4

Lowest Common Denominator = 4

2/1 - 5/4

= 8 - 5/4

= 3/4 gallons of juice

Therefore, the fraction of juice leftover is 3/4 gallons of juice

Please solve in the picture!
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that from a theorem,

A greater angle of a triangle is opposite a greater side. Let ABC be a triangle in which angle ABC is greater than angle BCA; then side AC is also greater than side AB. For if it is not greater, then AC is either equal to AB or less.

As we have  angle A =120 so it means the other 2 angles will be less than angle A , hence the opposite side to angle A is BC ,

Hence BC line is the longest line in triangle ABC
